Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web.

While unregistered users are able to browse the forum on a basic level, registering an account provides additional forum access not visible to guests as well as the ability to join in discussions and contribute yourself! Registration is free and instantaneous.

:rolleyes: Then you guys are going to be hating a lot of people.

Another one: DIRTY DISHES GETTING PUT BACK! Or people not washing them properly the first time and putting them away without even seeing that they're still dirty. So when you go to use it for cooking, you find you have to spend time washing it again, waiting for the kettle to boil the water hot so you can get the dishes done, etc.

You think people who think crocodiles are dinosaurs are annoying? I once got this "taxonomy" laminated sheet from that company that makes "educational" laminated sheets and IT CALLED ICTHYOSAURS SWIMMING FORMS OF DINOSAURS AND PTEROSAURS FLYING FORMS! That still annoys me! I just want to punch the person who made that and them destroy the machines making that sheet just thinking about it!
Really? I would call a crocodile a dinosaur. I mean, it is a "terrible lizard," isn't it?
We should all aspire to die surrounded by our dearest friends. Just like Julius Caesar.

"The Lord Universe said: 'The same fate I have given to all things from stones to stars, that one day they shall become naught but memories aloft upon the winds of time. From dust all was born, and to dust all shall return.' He then looked upon His greatest creation, life, and pitied them, for unlike stars and stones they would soon learn of this fate and despair in the futility of their own existence. And so the Lord Universe decided to give life two gifts to save them from this despair. The first of these gifts was the soul, that life might more readily accept their fate, and the second was fear, that they might in time learn to avoid it altogether." - Excerpt from a Chanagwan creation myth, Legends and Folklore of the Planet Ghar, collected and published by Yieju Bai'an, explorer from the Celestial Commonwealth of Qonming

Then call it a "Deino Saurus". That's the true Latin. "Dinosaur" refers only to the theropods, sauropods, prosauropods, stegosaurs, ankylosaurs, ceratopsians, ornthipods, pachycephalosaurs, fabrosaurids, heterodontosaurids, and birds.

Why isn't 'reptile' a suitable name for a mariney or croc? It's easier to say...

EDIT: Spelling error.

Time flows like a river. Which is to say, downhill. We can tell this because everything is going downhill rapidly. It would seem prudent to be somewhere else when we reach the sea.

It generally bugs me when people ignore protestant cases of child abuse and only pay attention to "pedo catholics". Also, most pedophiles are heterosexual, but since fundamentalists must always say lies - otherwise they will die from exposure to truth - its predictable

P.E.T.A.rds also die from exposure to the truth. And the Ku Klux Klan, the idiots don't even know how to spell "clan".

No there are many theories why they use K, but it's most likely that they just thought it was kool.

I'm not a fan of that view, or that humanity are born sinners, a blight on the planet, etc.

People are what others make of them, unless they are given enough freedom to sculpt themselves.

Google. It's a peice of crap.

First, they buy out Youtube and slowly ruin it.. First we start getting problems with the site they ignore, and, of course, they finally to give solutions that DON'T WORK!!

Right now, I cannot watch videos on Youtube. I keep getting a black square instead of the video and it keeps telling me it won't load. The Help Site is useless, I have Flash 10, THANK YOU!!

This is the second time I had a similar issue, admittedly last time instead of a black box I got spinning dots for all eternity to watch. I HATE Google and everything they've done to Youtube.

For me it's just the Google logo on the Google homepage that is black. But Google ruined Youtube with their new STINKING layout. When I gave the feedback about it I swore more times than I ever did.

Google doesn't do much for me, but what choice is there? Bing, Askjeeves, Wolfram Alpha...
