      I remember a documentary about a famous northwest passage expedition that was never seen again. One of the inuit people they talked to during an investigation claimed they found a boat, and in the captain’s quarters they found a body in the bed with a big smile on its face. That would be absolutely terrifying, but apparently that’s what naturally happens to corpses when their lips and gums receed.

            Now, imagine the violence early human bought upon early chimps to become the dominant species but also make them shy away from us.

              There’s a difference between a few humans throwing some rocks at something’s head and poking it with a sharp stick and what chimps do.

              Chimps kicked our weak asses off the trees. They should regret how that turned out for them.

      You’re right though, as soon as someone dies, there’s something not right at all about how they look. They don’t look asleep, they look uncanny valley.

      It also covers those who are not biologically fit to be mates. Various conditions can appear as physical traits.
