an insight from one of my friends:

“Thinking about how wild plants do complex optimisation and communication and all that cognition happens in the roots, and grains have tiny shallow roots because we’re breeding them for the edible parts

Wheat is bimbofied grass”

possibly even more true of plants where the edible part is the root, like carrots, since––as he points out––they’re bred to have thicc juicy sugary roots that grow in straight simple shapes

technically I suppose all domestication exists at a strange nexus of neotenization and bimbofication

:/

are you saying that domestication is the same phenomenon that makes the Fate series turn historical figures into big tiddy anime girls? is that the implication here?

agriculture is humanity’s oldest form of gacha. plant your quartz and hope for the weather necessary to guarantee an ssr harvest
