This may just be last night's three hours of sleep talking, but I see some pretty big crossovers between the Tamarians, and for instance this thread. The Tamarians can effectively communicate with dense allegories (every Tamarian knows what "Shaka, when the walls fell") means, just like this thread at times can just communicate almost entirely with single Simpsons screen captures.

I don't know if there's a word for it. Maybe memes in the original scientific sense?

Don't you mean the Tamsarians?

But yeah that's basically one version of what memes are, a little package to transmit thought technologies that confer evolutionary advantage. Of course, Dawkins' ideas are predated by semiotics and people like Umberto Eco, and Chomsky when it comes to linguistics.

Personally I like the idea that emoji are a return to Egyptian hieroglyphics. The human brain has always worked well with pictograms and ideograms, and now that we are not hampered by the limitations of fixed type we are free to explore

But The Simpsons as a half hour animated show, yeah, sure. But then why are they using the first season Ulman shorts-era designs on that tweet and not the season 1 designs?
