look at this skull


this is a whale skull from 40million years ago found in peru
it belonged to an amphibious whale that had webbed feet and was before whales evolved to become solely marine dwelling mammals. also horses used to have webbed feet how weird is that.
anyway, it was about 5 million years later that whales established their fins and torpedo shapes and other more water appropriate structures.
5 million years.
man thats so long compared to our lives. like woah. in a couple of million years that sound like no big deal on paper, our population will be completely different. a million years is soooooo much relative time. and we here living day by day trying to decifer billions of years worth of existence
i dont even know the point of this post
