I'm Fucking Begging Y'all To Read At Least The Ultimocene Saga Of Sapience Bc That Part Was LIFECHANGING For Me - Tumblr Posts

YEEEEAAAAHHHH SERINAAAAAAA!!!

@ my followers who don't know what Serina is, PLEASE READ THIS BLOG.

It's one of the best specbio projects out there, created by Sheather -one of the Golden Age masters. Serina is a world populated only by the descendants of the domestic canary (and a few other organisms like guppies, snails, ants, sunflowers, bamboo, algae, etc). The project digs deeply into the various unique niches of the world and the organisms that evolve to fill them. It's a journey of nearly three hundred million years thus far, and an absolute masterclass in specbio as a genre and an art form.

The vast majority of the blog is nature-documentarian in style, overviewing the physiology and evolutionary history of the various clades on the planet and the roles they fill across deep time. However, in the Ultimocene chapter, things take a turn for the profound as intelligent life evolves multiple times. I'm not kidding when I tell you that the saga of the rise and fall of intelligence on Serina is genuinely one of the most compelling and emotionally engaging stories I have read in years, and I NEED more people to experience this.

I'll wrap things up with this:

Any Serina: A Natural History of the World of Birds, fans here ?

Anyone. Hello… h
