WHALES ARE DERIVED FISH! That's actually true, give me a real plot twist

Projects Punga: A terraformed world with no vertebrates Last one crawling: The last arthropod
ARTH-6810: A world without vertebrates (It's ded, but you can still read I guess)
Potential ideas- Swamp world: A world covered in lakes, with the largest being caspian sized. Nematozoic: After a mass extinction of ultimate proportions, a single species of nematode is the only surviving animal. Tri-devonian: A devonian like ecosystem with holocene species on three different continents.
Quotes "Arthropod respiratory systems aren't really "inefficient", they're just better suited to their body size. It would be quite inefficient for a tiny creature that can easily get all the oxygen it needs through passive diffusion to have a respiratory system that wastes energy on muscles that pump air into sacs. (Hence why lungless salamanders, uniquely miniscule and hyperabundant tetrapods, have ditched their lungs in favor of breathing with their skin and buccal mucous membranes.) But large, active insects already use muscles to pump air in and out of their spiracles, and I don't see why their tracheae couldn't develop pseudo- lungs if other conditions pressured them to grow larger."-HangingTheif
"Considering the lifespans of modern non- insect arthropods (decade-old old millipedes, 50 year old tarantulas, 100+ year old lobsters) I wouldn't be surprised if Arthropleura had a lifespan exceeding that of a large testudine"-HangingTheif
"Humans have a tribal mindset and it's not alien for tribes to war on each other. I mean, look at the atrocities chimpanzee tribes do to each other. Most of people's groupings and big conflicts in history are directly or obliquely manifestations of this tribal mindset."-Sceynyos-yis
"He's the leader of the bunch You know his Coconut Gun is finally back to fire in spurts. His Coconut Gun Can make you smile If he shoots ya it's firing in spurts. His Coconut Gun Is bigger, faster, stronger too! He's the gun member of the Coconut Crew! HUH!
C.G.! Coconut Gun! C.G.! Co-Coconut Gun! Shoot yourself with a Coconut Gun! HUH!"-Kamineigh
"RIP, rest in Peytoia."-Little
"In Summary: Piss on Lovecraft's racist grave by making lewds of Cthulhu and Nyarlathotep.
Then eat arby's and embrace the void."-Kamineigh

Humans are actually derived lancelets They are because we evolved a long time ago from lancelet/tunicate larvae-like ancestors.

I thought not. It’s not a story the newbies would tell you. It’s a forum legend. Lyvatan was an admin of the forum, so powerful and so wise he could use science to influence the human imagination to create life… He had such a knowledge of the forum that he could even keep the ones he cared about from leaving.Speculative Evolution is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his admin power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice banned him while he was offline. Ironic. He could save others from leaving the community, but not himself.

About Me I will often say things that are irrelevant, jar the ongoing discussion, seem rude, or are just plain wrong. I'm not good at integrating into communities. I don't do well in many text-based situations due to the speed and the fact that I like to quintuple check what I write. I like to quintuple check everything and often refrain from saying things due to worry. I like eating lemons whole (except the peel).
Obligatory Quotes Wait so it won't just vaporize the atmosphere? -Zorcuspine
Geese are crustaceans -Tet
They get rid of their children by exploding their eyes. -Inceptis
THE CORGODILE -Mr. Sir
Dentists use their Secret Tooth Powers to obtain forbidden knowledge and blackmail the world governments. -Mr Mysterio
THE OPABINIA HAVE ESCAPED AND ARE SCOOPING PEOPLES EYES OUT! -ÐK
I've said it before and I'll say it again: We're in the middle of a vast maelstrom of interstellar warfare, unaware of the currents of destruction around us. What we pick up are short emergency bursts. Something out there is plunging our galaxy into chaos and all we can do is listen to the scraps we can detect, oblivious to the carnage that is threatening to consume all life in our universe.
I choose to believe. -Flisch
