As others have said, this is a side discussion inspired by the headline but not really related to the article.

That said, there is no proto-chicken that laid a chicken egg or a chicken hatching out of a proto-chicken egg. There was no “first chicken.” Populations evolve, not individuals. Let’s not confuse a de novo mutation with evolution. Evolution is a change in allele frequencies over time, and speciation is reproductive isolation of populations experiencing allele frequency shifts.

There are still population-wide polymorphisms in humans that are present in gorillas but have been fixed in chimpanzees. Populations of proto-chickens gradually evolved into chickens, but if there were a hard line to define the distinction (like the wavelength where orange ends), then there would have been a long time of proto-chickens and chickens interbreeding and their descendents oscillating back and forth between the two definitions over generations.

You’re trying to find out if she’s ghosting you or just a ghost?

What a ridiculous claim by yet another dumb shit who draws equivalence between someone who acts too slowly to punish criminals and the criminals themselves.

“Forget Hitler. Chamberlain was the worst world leader ever because he didn’t stop Hitler from becoming a far worse world leader than Chamberlain!”

Biden’s DoJ is not the DNC. That’s one of the things about the DoJ that decent people expect.

I didn’t even know Google owned Bloomberg News Reports!

I see you went to the Bến Tre school of saving democracy.

No thanks to hauling Supreme Court justices before a military tribunal because you don’t like the way they ruled. I wish we had expedited the cases against Trump, but I don’t want a bunch of leftists suspending democratic principles just long enough to make sure their political opponents are weakened. We’ve seen that ploy before, and it doesn’t end with freedom.

Why is Biden’s DoJ doing Trump’s job for him? Let Trump’s people be the ones to dismiss the investigations because of political bias.

Don’t shoot yourself in the foot because you think the other guy will shoot your foot.

You’re late! I forgot about you. Sorry to leave you off.

The real story is how easy it is for bullshit to go viral.

The Democratic party could not even prosecute a guy who tried to murder Congress. So the thinking goes - Why the fuck would someone vote for them when they do fuck all?

The “thinking” was instead to vote for the guy who tried to murder Congress?

The point of this article is that Trump was elected by those who did very little thinking at all.

The guy was bullied already for his last name, and now you’re calling his first name silly? I am reporting you to the mods, Spankm.

That makes sense, Cyberm Ass.

Right. Let’s not blame Trump or the electorate that put him in power.

Why would we hold our Sec. of Defense to a higher standard than the President?

That’s possible and what a lot of people are saying.

It’s also possible people who voted for Biden voted for Trump instead.

Do they get scones and blackcurrant squash?

People were thinner in the 1930s. We should figure out what their secret was and copy it.

I had the opposite experience. I got fat while eating nothing but stone soup! We just put in some onions and celery for flavor, and potatoes for bulk. Add some bacon and a ham hock, and melt in cream cheese to thicken it.

Because they’re eating the dogs, the people that stay there, they’re eating the cats. They’re eating the pets of the people that live around there, and this is what’s happening in our country, and it’s a shame.

So the electors were paid to vote for a specific candidate by monied interests, and it happened to be the candidate who won the plurality of votes in every state? That’s a remarkable coincidence.
