Do you think that herbivores preceded plants on land?

What do the animals eat?

They form unions?

OK, finally got through it.

1. There is no perfect term to use. A term is infused with meaning by people over time, transforming like a fossilization process, but with culture.
2. If you agree that no perfect term can exist, perfect in that self-explanatory and “immortal definition” sense, then you have to agree that a lot of thought needs to go into how a term can be used and abused, how it can be shifted, how aesthetic it is, and so on. Those are jobs for writers and very creative people.
3. If you really want it to be big, the term probably needs to be internationalized. If your term is very ‘englishy’, then it’s no bueno. The term “vegan” at least sounds similar in many languages and is novel and short, two syllables, so it’s easy to learn and not confuse with others.

Sentientism and many like it are great, but those are more academic terms. It’s great if you read books, but look up the statistics on reading non-fiction non-self-help books.

Animalism does sound cool, but I can imagine 10 different ways it could wrong easily, including being subsumed into some weird primitivist human supremacism.

Demented bacon eaters does sound like an apt outcome.

Where are biohackers being booed the most?

There is no floor except the for the artificial one built out of privilege.

Oh, and just for fun, breathing is still hard. And all medical testing shows my lungs are just fine and there should be problem.

autonomic issue?

The site looks artificially sloppy and a clone of https://bioengineer.org/female-penis-evolution/

The paper is over a decade old.

Past research suggests lonely people fear negative judgment, but a recent study proposes that loneliness is also associated with fear of positive evaluation.

I’m vegan btw.

Are the biohacker clowns around here too?

The compromise would be to create a signature biome and allow it to contaminate. And if they find some rock which doesn’t have that signature biome, then it’s probably extraterrestrial.

This is what you get when you let “business science” people publish.

Sperm concussion?

Wait till you hear about grazing.

Different study:

Early-life microbiota seeding and subsequent development is crucial to future health. Cesarean-section (CS) birth, as opposed to vaginal delivery, affects early mother-to-infant transmission of microbes. Here, we assess mother-to-infant microbiota seeding and early-life microbiota development across six maternal and four infant niches over the first 30 days of life in 120 mother-infant pairs. Across all infants, we estimate that on average 58.5% of the infant microbiota composition can be attributed to any of the maternal source communities. All maternal source communities seed multiple infant niches. We identify shared and niche-specific host/environmental factors shaping the infant microbiota. In CS-born infants, we report reduced seeding of infant fecal microbiota by maternal fecal microbes, whereas colonization with breastmilk microbiota is increased when compared with vaginally born infants. Therefore, our data suggest auxiliary routes of mother-to-infant microbial seeding, which may compensate for one another, ensuring that essential microbes/microbial functions are transferred irrespective of disrupted transmission routes. https://www.cell.com/cell-host-microbe/fulltext/S1931-3128(23)00043-4

I was already thinking of the tree paper mafia and their conflict with hemp.

This better not lead to some Eugenics AI.

I wonder how much of that was the show’s writers.
