*Time Is Space, And Space Is Time

*Time is space, and space is time 

In the speculative evolution community, there are three generally accepted top picks for the prospective evolution of nonhuman sapience: dolphins, crows/ravens, and –you guessed it– cephalopods. These little dudes are fucking incredible, and the ONLY thing holding them back from racing to civilizational sapience is their lifespans. Typically they have little to no generational overlap, preventing learned behaviors from being passed down and advanced. Fix that up and sprinkle in a little bit of communalism (which the gloomy octopus already has significant traces of) and they’d be well on their way to a technological civilization comparable to that of humans.

(fun fact: my world Sphaera has all three of these nonhuman people and more! merfolk are dolphins, gryndulos are octopi, and kenku are ravens!)

HELLLLLL YESSSSSS

only took ‘em 55 years, lmao.

On that note, however, here’s a graphic I whipped up in about an hour immediately after hearing the news last night.

Icy 'Super-Earth' Exoplanet Spotted Around Nearby Barnard's Star

Astronomers have found compelling evidence of a frigid alien world about 3.2 times more massive than Earth circling Barnard's Star, a dim red dwarf that lies just 6 light-years from the sun.

The nearest single star to the sun apparently hosts a big, icy planet.

Astronomers have found strong evidence of a frigid alien world about 3.2 times more massive than Earth circling Barnard’s Star, a dim red dwarf that lies just 6 light-years from the sun. Barnard’s Star is our sun’s nearest neighbor, apart from the three-star Alpha Centauri system, which is about 4.3 light-years away.

I’ll do you one better:

kazoo bagpipe bard. I wish I was playing this campaign.

A bard that plays an air horn. You use the air horn irl too.
