Mostly unimpressed.

Besides the WokeTurds, like how Lucy needed an African name as if any
African language existed in her time...

It's linear. And that's stupid.

All the alters here agree with me, though the collective is far too
emotionally disturbed to admit it, because they're not looking at
any model but a timeline.

The good Doctor has a model where Lucy is ancestor to Chimps.

Why is that so crazy? Well, Chimps don't appear in the fossil record
until maybe half a million years ago, so it's CRAZY to think that
they didn't evolve until long after lucy...

Wait. No, it's the other way around:

Chimps just plain aren't that old. But paleo anthropology, being the
furthest thing from an actual science, much prefers the evidence that
doesn't exist to the evidence that it does have...
