    The image looks like our distant ancestor there is crawling in from another dimension, the way the water still encloses its body so high up… or at least like it portaled over from a deep ocean part of the ocean floor.

          That snake looks dumb as hell. Evolution really fucked with them. It looks like a puppet made by a child when you just describe a snake and they’ve never seen one.

            Unless that snake is endangered it is doing just fine and is adapted over millennia to be built that way and thus live it’s best life

    If he doesn’t do “I’m a half tetrapod half fish. Of course I…” snippets with half-hearted throwaway jokes he can go extinct for all I care!

      5 generations to fish. It seems your family reproduces once every 75 million years on average.

      That feels higher than usual for humans/fish.
