People prefer to read about humans specis

>>23249569
boring!

>>23249564
Agreed. There are no books about the Movile Cave, either. This is excessive bullshit.

>>23249564
There was an autismo webnovel that was 4000 chapters and around 7 million words long that detailed a cell gaining consciousness and surviving through the entire 4.6 billion years of human evolution. It eventually branched out into space. Don't remember the name anymore though.

>>23249564
There is, it's called my diary desu

>>23249564

Not much happened then. Boring.

>>23249584
Tell me about this cave

Holy shit

>>23249587
Kek a novelization of Spore?

>>23249593
Fungi is up to something being that old.

>>23249591
The Movile cave is in Romania- it was completely isolated for 5.5 million years. It has a completely unique ecosystem and animals/insects. I'm pretty sure they sealed it back up. The only thing I can find on it is one old documentary on dvd that was filmed in 1997.

>>23249599
Maybe that’s why people see crazy things when they ingest shrooms

>>23249622
>scientists discover that the hallucinations people see on mushrooms are actually memories from the genetic memory pool of mushrooms, and reaches back to when they first evolved.
that would make a good book

>>23249594

Not 4000, I stand corrected.

>Endless, the blue and smooth sea, swept a small figure at high speed.

>"Oh, there are no multi-celled creatures, but there are oceans and planets? It’s rare. I don’t know how long it takes to find such a place. Now I can have a 'creator' addiction~ although it’s just Some of the original types of cells of the earth are thrown in..."

>This figure has a short blond hair and a cute face. It looks like a little loli. She stops on the sea. She waved her hand and a large piece of water-like objects dripped into the sea.

oh, godammit

>>23249647
Jesus christ, I went from vaguely interested to not at all.

>>23249647
It's a webnovel, what do you expect lol? Though I do have to admit that I don't remember any lolis, strange. Also, I'm pretty sure that that's machine-translated mate, and I'm 99% sure that I didn't read mtl, meaning there's a human translation out there somewhere. Check novelupdates.

>>23249666
>It's a webnovel, what do you expect lol?
I except it to be up to par to at least quality Chinese webnovels. This >>23249647 is garbage.

>>23249709
nta, but I just read 3 chapters and it isn't that >>23249647 level bad. Rough start I guess. Seems pretty standard so far, very similar to Spore—collecting white balls(food) to split, grow, and evolve into new kinds of cells. I guess the author wanted to attract pedophiles or weebs? Still a dogshit way to start your novel though.

Why not just reference a goddess creation myth? Or have a cute girl lecture about the possible origins of life? Doing this is shitting in my cereal.

not strictly precambrian but I find all the prior permutations of earth's geography and geology fascinating and I'm saddened that I as a person will never personally witness any of them. I wonder if such a temporal(?) longing has any kind of literary value

(Quote)
…………………………………………

“Where is this? Who am I?”

This was the first thoughts it had. It had a consciousness, and the sense of touch, but it did not have vision or smell. Through its only sense, it knew it was in a liquid.

This liquid seemed to be called water.

“I … … am called a cell?”

It did not have any brains but it knew what shape its body was. There was a thin spherical layer and the center of the sphere had a complex densely packed construct that was called the nucleus. It was due to the existence of this nucleus that it could think, move, be alive … …

However, this was the limit of its thinking. Such a small nucleus could not let it think further.

“Move … … search … …”

It controlled the think outer layer, and the layer started to ripple like waves. This movement caused it to slowly move in the water, and it searched for its own target in the endless darkness … …
(End quote)

This is pretty bad tb h.

Why is the awareness expressed in formal grammar? Why not have a regular sentence show what the organism thought? Why not have it expressed in raw thought like, "Where... I...? I... what..."

Why assume single celled organisms have consciousness? How can it "know" the shape of its body?

Was this written by a hser? A brain damaged prole? Mistranslation?

At least other webnovel slop feels like it was written by a thinking college educated man. I'm not reading this trash.

I love the precambrian!

Yeah looking at the prose, it looks like translated Japanese, but weirdly translated Japanese. It's not how machine translation does it or how the Japs themselves do it, it reads more like an overconfident college student thinking he can translate anything while he's in his Japanese II class for the language requirement

Biblical timeline is about 6,000 years, which is accurate and scientifically supported (oldest tree and desert are about 4k years, about the time since the flood, which left evidence all over the earth). The millions of years is self-refuting, but they need deep-time for their abiogensis/evolutionism fairy tale.

The only reason people believe evolution lie is it's indoctrinated in schools and mass media, it doesn't stand up to intellectual scrutiny and everyone who believes their ancestors were non-human believe so on blind faith.

>>23251601
You're retarded if you don't believe in evolution

>>23251601
are you trying to imply that fossils/ elongated concretions are human made pillars? They don't even look like pillars, you giant dipshit.

>>23251846
>the government school and mainstream media said I came from monkeys and fish
>they wouldn't lie to me because I trusted them!
You can't even defend your blind faith in evolutionism, you just insult people as "retarded" for "heresy" to your state religion which has never been proven.

Your blind faith creation superstition is not even mathematically possible, even with your fallacious timelines which have been debunked by Christian scientists who consider lying a sin; meanwhile, your secular/atheist "scientists" claim boys can become women and morality is relative. But you're prejudiced and reject all science that doesn't come from your Sodom and Gomorrah "scientists".

>doesn't understand
>defaults to anger and rage and thinking he's smarter/superior than others
Those are polystrate fossils.

This is how the typical debate with evolutionists goes too. They're ignorant as hell and arrogant as hell, never studying this topic because they're brainwashed to think they know-it-all and they never grew out of that angsty prideful teen phase and anyone who doesn't goosestep to their state religion of evolution is just "le stoopid" so they don't even listen to arguments (hence why I just posted links instead of really getting into this, you can choose to learn or remain ignorant, it's your choice). And if that's the fruit that the evolution religion produces (ignoring the increase in violence, STDs, divorce, drug abuse, etc since it was widely adopted), then why should anyone believe it even if it were true? (It's obviously not since it violates laws of science.)

Some builds just work. Adding complexity would make them not work, so they stay the same.
Like you can print whatever you want from a word document, but you probably still own pencils.

>>23249632
Fungal intelligence would be a good subject for fiction. Some fungi are really good at spatial optimisation. Pic related is an experiment where food was placed in the same configuration as Tokyo's subway stations. The fungus ended up growing into a shape similar to the actual train network.
If you could talk to a fungus it would probably have a very different sense of self. It has no brain, no central nervous system and no need to preserve individual existence. Whatever intelligence they have is decentralised across lots of individual hyphae. Splitting a fungus just makes two fungal bodies. Eating a fungus just helps it spread its spores.
I'm not sure exactly how they could communicate this chemically, but it is oddly similar to the ego death that people describe from eating psychedelic mushrooms. Thought without a thinker, experience without an experiencer.

Where do you think the difference races diversified according to their evironment (i.e. harsher climate = darker skin) if not through evolution? What about lactose tolerance, wisdom teeth and the variances in domestic canines?

You've encountered a /his/ schizo. He won't make any arguments from those videos or explain what he "learned" from them or the logic behind what convinced him. But he will try to waste your time, and demand you go through all of them point by point to build his argument for him. I doubt he even watches them himself.

The perspective of being the first predator, the one and only to spread death in your wake, chasing after all those little things who're chilling until some hovering demon comes after their ass. And just look at that huge thing go.
Or the prey. You're so goddamn scared that you eventually develop the weirdest habits and defense mechanisms. Fear of death has permanently disfigured you, paranoia keeps you on the edge.
My mind is too busy with something else, but I bet there's potential in this.

fuck you all I liked ch. 139.

Nor should it be reduced into Manichean lenses - blaming property developers and the civil service for creating the crisis /// Then the woodcutter let his axe fly - Thwack!
