vergil was a notoriously slow writer (if we are to believe the ancient sources that tell us that he wrote the eclogues in 3 years, the georgics in 7, and the aeneid in 11, then there is a point in his life that he was writing an average of less than a line a day), so can you imagine what it would be like if he were a fanfic writer to have to wait for him to update after he’s just pulled some cliffhanger shit in his most recent chapter where dido kills herself out of love for aeneas
immediately after posting this i realized how foolish this comparison was because vergil was a fanfic writer. he was the most famous iliad/odyssey fanfic writer of his time. fuck

i had no idea they were so frickin huge
I love them so much because they’re about as sharp as a baseball and their anatomy is ridiculous to the point of them literally being classified as plankton for years because they just sort of get blown around by the ocean and look confused, but because they lay more eggs than ANY OTHER VERTEBRATE IN EXISTENCE, evolution can’t stop them
Why is no big predator coming and gnawing on them?
Their biggest defense is that they’re massive and have super tough skin, but they do get hunted by sharks or sea lions sometimes and they just sort of float there like ‘oh bother’ as it happens
Even funnier, because they eat nothing but jellyfish they’re really low in nutritional value anyway, so they basically survive by being not worth eating because they’re like a big floating rice cracker wrapped in leather.
So basically the only reason natural selection hasn’t taken care if them is because they are the most useless fish
yes, they’ve perfected uselessness to the point of being unstoppable
a true inspiration
This is the only evidence I needed that minding your own business is the best way to survive
