The existence of the modern elephant shrew implies the existence of an extinct "platybelodon shrew", a shovel tusker that I have named the "shroop".

People seem to be enjoying my "cursed" spec evo posts! But rather than turn my main account into a #CursedSpecEvo account, I've made a new account for (re)posting whatever cursed, goofy, and not-very-serious #SpecEvo posts are on Bsky, updated daily so far.

Season's Greetings!
I'm going to make or repost jokey/cursed speculative evolution-related posts here every day except when I don't. Hopefully there will be sufficient material that this can continue uninterrupted for a long time!

Please @ me or tag #CursedSpecEvo to bring posts to my attention.

#CursedSpecEvo vibes here.
Well, yes, the "cursed" part is explicit, but the rest seems to be channeling that "Ascent of Man" picture.

Shout-out to C. M. Kösemen's epic "All Tomorrows", wherein genetically modified humans evolve into even more disturbingly grotesque forms:

"No human would have recognized them as their descendants. The females were beaked cones of flesh some two meters tall, rooted in soil like grotesque carnivorous plants. The males on the other hand, resembled contorted, bipedal monkeys. Unlike their mates they were perfectly ambulatory; dozens of them ran around the females' mounds like so many imps. Some would gather food, others would clean the females while others would stand on guard for danger. Although their actions looked purposeful, the males had no will of their own." The Asymmetric People: "Although contorted by gravity, the Lopsiders managed to regain their sentience, and develop a civilization in a short few million years. Squat, pancake-like buildings spread all over their planet. These constructs looked like squashed bunkers, and they were never more than a few meters high. They did not seem like much, but such structures were entrances to underground homes, schools, hospitals, temples, universities but also embassies, prisons, asylums, command centers and arsenals. They lived strange lives, but the Lopsiders were human in all of their virtues and evils. Thus, it was only natural for them to expand outwards and look for new frontiers to colonize. Fortunately, their solar system harbored other planets, similar to the Lopsider homeworld in almost all respects, all respects except gravity. But they weren't willing to let such trivial details stop them. Throughout their history, humans had always risked changing themselves to preserve their future. It was a risky gamble, but it had paid off since the days of the Martian-Americans. But reengineering the flattened Lopsider body for a benign gravity was a monumental task indeed. Suffice it say that the experiments took millennia to achieve even limited success. After countless attempts, the Asymmetric People were born, or rather made. Their bodies were changed considerably; what had been shovel-like toes to slither through the high-gravity dirt had become centipedal legs, and the singular, grasping hand was elongated to an extreme degree. Their grotesque faces had been inverted and turned upside-down after reverting from a flounder-like existence. Twisted as they were, members of this new race enjoyed tremendous advantages over their flattened forefathers."
