our robot overlords will pamper us as much as I pamper my chickens

Unfortunately for us humans, the majority of chickens live in horrible conditions in large corporate farms. Should the robots ever start to take over, I hope by that time we will be treating other species better, else they learn from us!

dinosaurs are a group that includes the subgroup of birds. most dinosaurs are extinct, but birds still exist

homo erectus is a single species within the group known as hominins. most hominins are extinct, but homo sapiens still exists

apples are fruits. I like apples, but that doesn't mean I like every kind of fruit

I have watched the simulated running of various dinosaur species in documentaries such as Jurassic Park.

I have also watched my chickens excitedly run around my back yard.

There is nothing you can say that will convince me birds are not literally dinosaurs.

As for birds being dinosaurs, you also have a lot of physical similarities too! The feet of non-avian dinosaurs are similar to those of modern birds with hollow bones, and I think the skulls were similar in shape too. Recently, we have also found evidence of some dinosaurs being feathered. There is also evidence of bird-like behaviours in some dinosaurs, like brooding (e.g. a hen sitting on some eggs) and herding (grouping together)

Too bad, now you, me, and everyone is a fish. All the tetrapods were originally descended from fish (technically, the ancestor to the modern kind of fish), meaning we are closer to bony fish than sharks are!

Mammals (including us humans!), reptiles, dinosaurs (and by extension birds), and amphibians are all FISH!

Livyatan is an extinct genus of highly predatory macroraptorial sperm whale, containing one known species: L. melvillei.

Uhm ackshually

was talking about a different whale species thats badass as fuck

"would you rather-"

"Bear."

"But I didn't even finish-"

"Did I stutter? Bear. I love the hairy, cuddley gay ones."

Children of your sister are not your descendants (at least I hope they are not!), although you share a common ancestor with them. All humans share a common ancestor, but not all humans are descended from all other humans.

Crocodiles and dinosaurs (and birds) do share a common ancestor, but that ancestor was neither crocodile, nor a dinosaur.

Does that make sense?

They both share a common ancestor called Archosaur, but then evolved separately. Theres a decent high level description of that here, but the key part is:

Crocodiles and dinosaurs share a deeper connection than most people realize, both belonging to the group Archosauria, which emerged approximately 250 million years ago. This relationship makes crocodiles more closely related to birds (the surviving dinosaur lineage) than they are to other reptiles like lizards and snakes. The archosaur lineage split into two main branches: the Pseudosuchia (crocodile line) and the Avemetatarsalia (dinosaur and pterosaur line). During the Triassic period, both groups flourished and diversified, producing a remarkable array of body forms and ecological adaptations. This shared heritage explains certain similarities between crocodilians and dinosaurs, including their four-chambered hearts, complex respiratory systems, and parental care behaviors—traits that distinguish them from other reptile groups.

Crocodiles are not descendants of dinosaurs the same way you are not a descendant of your brother/sister.

Hony, is your mom a penguin?

That's true, dinosaurs don't have buttholes.

It's dinosaur shaped
