Despite the apparent huge age gap, they can still date under the “half your age plus 7” rule.

*half your age plus 700
Are these the same worms that got into RFK Jr's brain after his meeting with his russian handler?
Yes, but they starved for lack of brains :(
It might not have been the worm actually. Missing a chunk of brain runs in his family on his uncle's side.
Holy Fuck!
Are we just looking for imaginative ways to destroy ourselves at this point? We have enough options already! But we have to keep looking for more creative previously unknown ways to kill ourselves.
We've got to leave something interesting for the alien xeno-archaeologists of the future to uncover.
Xeno-archaeologist 1,000 years from now: ..... yeah .... it's another one .... fourth one in this sector .... just blew themselves up and destroyed everything for some dumb reason ... probably economics like in that last system 35 light years away .... too bad ... if we had arrived earlier, we could have helped them out ... oh well
Further research shows that they blew everything up trying to deal with the ancient, insatiable, worms they released on themselves out of curiosity. Upon reflection, it is probably better that we didn't arrive earlier.
Alien #1: ... HEY KORG! ... look at this! ... (picks up human skull and starts comically operating the jawbone) ... HEY LOOK AT ME! Imma intelligent species and my economy is more important because I have to pay for these worms ... so imma gonna blow up the world for some reason
KORG: ... Stop messing around Kang ... this place gives me the creeps, let's get out of here.
Exactly, do you want them to know we polluted ourselves to death? That's just shameful
Now, if we accidentally unleashed an ancient parasite? That's just unfortunate
Maybe it's related to thawing of permafrost and they want to research what to do if all the frozen bugs come back to life
Indeed.
Worst that there are also unknown Virus and Bacteria found in the Permafrost, which are also defrosted with the Climate change. A lot are also still life..
Although, most likely less-evolved hence less-threathening than the current virus and bacterias.
Is the saber toothed tiger less threatening than the common house cat ?
Yes, saber toothed tiger can't manipulate humans.
It'd have a fair go at manipulating your arm off your torso given the chance.
If it can't survive in today's environment then yes.
They are investigating it, some million years in the oldest beeings in Earth don't make evolutive difference to the current ones. The only question is, if they can infect humans or animals or not. The climate change make that all tipe of indesirable things are defrosted, adding more dangerous diseases to the existing ones.
Viruses and bacteria don't evolve to kill you. They propogate in your system to spread themselves. It's actually in their best interest to keep you alive, so the more evolved ones would be less deadly because they've had more time to dial it in. Not that evolution is something they choose, it's from mutations that work more or less better.
Normally I recommend we start small, just a little fire.
Fuck it in this case. Exterminatus.
Oh they are going to love microplastics
Tek ma te
I wonder how this is going to advance the status of cryogenic freezing.
It won't. That's simply not possible for an organism as large and complex as a human being. You can watch this for a more detailed explanation.
The very hungry helminths.
Must be famished after all that time
Worm 1 [Healthy] Age 2 quadrums (32000) of Russia Consuming nutrient paste
Worm 2 [Healthy] Age 1 (41700) of Russia Consuming nutrient paste
worm 2 has gone into a murderous rage, and will kill anyone he sees
Did the scientists at least think the worms were getting better on the drums?
Perchance they are together with a Jewish bass player.
Yes, danieljackson?
~~They are yet to defrost more members of United Russia~~
they should eat one, or place it in their ear canal :)
