  • 💅 lmao I’m not and birds are dinosaurs technically by virtue of sharing a lot of bone structure and evolutionary traits passed down through little bird like dinosaurs.

    Personally though I’d argue its reductive to look at a pigeon and go “lmao tiny dinosaur” because 65 million years of evolution and divergence didn’t apparantly happen just because they have dino feet.

    I’ve flown too close to the sun trying to get this Chud to realise his redditor comment about OPs title read like unnecessary reddit pedantry that contributes and accomplishes nothing but instead I think I’ve just made myself out to be a science denier 😭














  • I loved dinosaurs but having an evolutionary ancestor is not the same as being a true dinosaur.

    Yes I enjoy seeing a Trex in a chicken and I enjoy seeing a Smilidon in a house cat.

    You’re reducing biology and taxonomy to History channel buzz phrases.

    And before you ashctually me, cats have inherited their mitochondrial dna from a common ancestor of the smilodon 20 million years ago so if you wanna die on the “birds are real life dinosaurs” hill then I’ll die with you on the adjacent “cats are literally mini sabre tooth tigers” hill.
