| 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. Join our community today! |

Now that I'm going to college soon, and a lot of stuff about money has came up. I don't even know what one of those things is. A virtual check. Does anyone know how these work? |

You should wait one year between high school and college. Gives your mind a rest. |

I can't. Insurance reasons for starters. If I'm not a full time student this year I loose my parents' coverage. |

Same here but I don't care. Heathcare will be free soon enough, besides I lead such an inactive lifestyle that the chances of me injuring myself are low. I want to take some online classes, but school starts in two weeks and I still need to take a placement test, enroll, pay for tuition and buy any supplies I need. I'm not doing all that just for two classes whose subjects I could teach myself in half the time and 0% of the cost. |

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 Tree That Owns Itself

Consider people in my family are dropping like mayflies right now (yep, more people are sick after my grandfather and they probably won't make it either) I think I should. You really think that crap about free healthcare is going to happen? |

No, it was just a joke. And it would seem that we are the same person, as my family is going through the same ordeal. Perhaps we're really two different versions of the same person communicating through some kind of Twilight-zone internet forum and we just think we're different people in the same universe. Maybe we're all really just the same person browsing the Twilinternet (or, alternatively the Interzone). |

Everyone on this forum is actually one person. SE is an interdimensional nexus.

I am a different person. Now I am going to take a dump on Tempy's lawn. Eventually.

Our universes could have diverged very early from each other. For example, a series of humorous circumstances and hijinks led to JohnFaa living up in Portugal, instead of England or North America. The only hole in this theory is that some of us are female, but I wouldn't put lying or undergoing gender-reassignment surgery for the purpose of tax evasion past us.
