Stupid_Sexy_Flander posted:Gators/crocs haven't evolved in something like 65 million years. Crocodilians that look and act like modern crocs have been around for eighty million years. The Chicxulub impact killed the non‐avian dinosaurs fifteen million years into that and crocodiles did not care.

Only the sharks cared less, and the proto-rodents started to not give a gently caress.

Queen Combat posted:This is loving me up There was a period of around 60 million years where there was no bacteria/fungus/bugs/etc that could decompose cellulose. So when all the massive early trees died, they'd just lie around doing jack poo poo, timber piling higher and higher for millennia as it slowly compacted into coal or fossilized. Also at the same time there was way more oxygen in the Earth's atmosphere, something like 35% versus today's 20-something%. So these massive miles-deep swaths of timber would likely catch on fire regularly too.

So when all the massive early trees died, they'd just lie around doing jack poo poo, timber piling higher and higher for millennia as it slowly compacted into coal or fossilized. There's no likely about it. They caught fire regularly and continent-wide forest fires burned for multiple seasonal cycles, with evidence being found in charcoal horizons in carboniferous coal measures in Pennsylvania and Victoria, Australia.

In 2015 the NBA championship team the Golden State Warriors got to visit Barack Obama in the White House, which is something of a tradition. They won again in 2017 but decided not to visit the White House to hang out with Trump, saying they wouldn't have gone even if Trump had invited them. (Trump subsequently withdrew any invitation which may or may not have existed.) Instead when they visited DC they took a field trip to the National Museum of African American History and Culture. The Warriors won again in 2018 and when they visited DC a few days ago they decided to not only boycott Trump yet again but also to to go hang out with Obama instead.

SomeJazzyRat posted:No, Nazi is shooting at Ace Rimmer. Nazi stole the Princess of Undetermined European Country, and it was up to Ace Rimmer to bring her back (and win her over, if you know what I mean). While on a plane, cornered by the Nazi, he was attacked with a crocodile and left to die as the Nazi parachuted to safety. Instead, Ace Rimmer wrestled the Crocodile and rode on it's back towards the Nazi, leading to the depicted Nazi. It's all featured here: Ace Rimmer's origin story qualifies as schadenfreude, too. He's a parallel universe version of Arnold Rimmer, an arrogant, cowardly and unpopular man who constantly blames others for his failures and can't even succeed by cheating. The only difference between Ace and Arnold came when they were threatened with being held back a year at school. The twist is that Ace became confident, heroic and well-liked because he was held back - the experience made him realise that he wasn't entitled to success.
