You Are a Fish: The Brutal Truth
A ruthless deep-dive into fish evolution that will shatter your human superiority complex. Every breath, bone, and brain cell traces back to ancient waters-and if you don't grasp this mind-bending reality, you're failing at understanding your own existence.
Best quote from You Are a Fish: The Brutal Truth
The genetic difference between you and a fish is largely a matter of timing and location, not fundamental genetic innovation. Evolution didn't invent new genes to create land animals—it repurposed the ancient toolkit fish had already developed.
