Just because your general body shape did not change does not mean you did not evolve.

Point: facts

This may seem like it's just meant to be funny, but evolution without changes in genes is literally the origin of the word "meme".
Memetic evolution (as opposed to genetic evolution) happens through passing information from generation to generation, so having the counterpoint just be "memes" is unbelievably accurate!
Nerd.
I enjoy the information. I still have to call you out.
I'm proud to have been called a nerd
I'm with Team Meme on this one.

Yup, things like temperature, humidity, and atmospheric makeup can change quite a bit depending on geological periods.
Thereβs a bit of an evolutionary necessity to adapt on those timescales.
They have evolved, just the body hasn't changed.
So did they grow as a person then?

We talking USB-C, though?
Did you talk to one?
At least they don't pay taxes.
So perfect that the poor things are doomed to have their blood harvested
We are their vampires.
The beauty of evolution. If it works, it works. Whatever they have been doing for so long is working.
Furthermore it's beautiful that the evolutionary pressure hasn't changed. That there hasn't been a benefit from any of the genetic mutations. That the evolutionary pressure still applies to this day to ensure conformance with the perfect archetype.
And now they will miss out on becoming crab, those poor fools.
You fool!
Crawls sideways
We was crab all along!
This is what peak performance looks like
Without flaw unless it gets flipped on its back.
Ain't a problem in the ocean

I wouldn't be surprised if they find these guys on Mars soon
