    They look like something I made in Spore.

    The only way to make this worse is to give them human feet.

    I guess it’s easier to have testicles on your chin at this point.

    Looks like one of the creatures in Francis Bacon’s tryptich “Three Studies For Figures At The Base Of A Crucifixion”.

    I think Moa are a cool candidate for de-extinction, cause we have close relatives, they wouldn’t be too dangerous, and we could house them well in zoos. Plus I’d super like to see one.

      Not too dangerous, weren’t they identified as the predator in a lot of Maori stories about man hunting birds?

        They were certainly feared but aren’t as dangerous as say, a tiger, which we keep regularly. Their poo suggests a herbivorous diet so unlikely to be hunting anything regularly, probably more like a cassowary that attack for defence.

      The one with the plus at the bottom is female, the one with the arrow at an upwards angle is male.

  1. Don’t throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.


If you are here asking: “Is this a science meme?”

Probably, yes. We use the Dawkins definition of meme: a replicating idea, not just an image macro with a fact on it. A good post here doesn’t need to teach you something. It needs to make you ask something: who, what, where, when, and especially why or how.

Science isn’t a filing cabinet of facts, it’s a conversation. For example, a photo of an eel or other localized wildlife counts because most people never see one, and wonder is the first step of inquiry. A car meme counts if it makes you curious about what’s under the bonnet. If you want to talk about something you noticed in the world, chances are someone else wants to talk about it too.

We moderate for vibe, not category. Pruning is light, especially where a post creates interesting discussion. Experimenting is encouraged.

See the pinned paper on Shitposting as Public Pedagogy if you want the academic case for why this works.
