    I’m a time traveler and I’m highly offended, but I can’t tell you why or it would rend the fabric of the universe.

        Hand all the way to the right has 5 fingers and a base of a thumb visible.

        Ugh the more I look at this, the more unnerving the details are. The little girl has a Zoidberg claw for a right hand, and alien behind on the right has a spaghetti finger.

          But only 5 appendages visible on the hand in the image so AI do good job?

    Ayylmaos, should they exist, would be very…alien to us. Why are almost all schizo-American ufonutjob descriptions of ayylmaos are near-human sized, vaguely fuckable Startrek forehead aliens who are bipedal and have two arms? Even on Earth, bipedalism is very rare amongst animals. Next is size. Mammals alone span the size of mice to blue whales. Why are ayylmaos sized just right for anal probing us? Why aren’t they orca-sized girrafes? Let’s not go to problems with different planetary gravities and atmosphere. Oxygen is highly toxic and Earfian life have evolved a complicated mechanism to detoxify it. Yet, ufonutjobbers depict ayylmaos as not wearing space suits. Next is communication. We can’t even talk to cats or understand them fully. What makes you think we can seduce a green naked ayylmao slave dancer? Truly, schizo-American ufonutjobbers should gb2 to Rebbit where they belong.

      Oxygen is also a catalyst for life. It’s kind of like a drug for us. It’s good and bad at the same time. It kind of burns the wick of life. It helps us product energy and destroy old cells. It is thought to be something that we would find in abundance on any planet with complex life.

      In theory, the reason that our evolution won was because it is a very effective design pattern. It is possible that aliens might come from a planet with stronger or weaker gravity, so could have differing musculoskeletal structure, however the humanoid form would still provide the correct support. Perhaps, in lower gravity, our heads might have been bigger light some depictions of Greys.

      We have been working on a first contact protocol for ages and would be certain to quickly establish a means of communication. I highly recommend watching the movie Arrival, which goes through this at great detail and definitely pokes at the idea that aliens might perceive different dimensions.

        Jury is still out if the humanoid form really is such an evolutionary advantage. Sharks exist for already at least 450 million years, predating trees by about 90 million years.

          Yet in that time, they didn’t figure out how to build spaceships. Two legs seems optimal for getting through tight spaces. Being able to sweat allows us to run for hours and exhaust our prey. Hands with opposable thumbs make is able to build and wield anything. Our brain folds make it so we can plan and recall. Our brains are actually really good at locational memory, which is less relevant with GPS, but can be hacked for massive memorization abilities. Sharks sense a mass of life that smells fishy and eat it. It matters how you define success. Is it just survival in place or advancing science, exploration, the arts, etc.?

          Animals that live in water will never develop technology, as they can’t make fire, so that’s an evolutionary dead end.

          Also, you need a way to manipulate material, so hands and arms/appendages are also going to be a prerequisite.

          My bet is that the first advanced alien species discovered will be giant land crabs with hands instead of pincers.

      I have a question: where does the term “ayylmaos” come from? If it I hadn’t seen SomeOrdinaryGamers talk about it I would very confused.

    This must be what that gay agenda is all about. I mean, look at them ripped aliens.
