Yeah, they reigned the earth for over 100 million years. I'll stay drug free, thank you.

Yeah, they dominated the planet for almost 200 million years.
Fuck coffee.
Humans dominate the planet for 50.000 years now, and look how shite the biosphere is doing.
We will not make it any longer.
I love how obtuse you are. Absolutely demented, made me smile.
They still dominate the planet. Which other animal has species on every single continent?
Rats, humans, lichens, moss, cockroaches, …
Humans have an outpost, comparable to a space station. There are no rats on antarctica. The other things you mentioned are not animals.
Rats in Antarctica within the last decade, they have an embassy at the human outpost
Fair on lichen, which are just weird , and moss be plants
Fuck coffee.
Coffee plants feels the same about us. Caffeine is a pesticide from the plant. Same with the spicy molecule in pepers. Humans are so fucked up we crave that shit. Dinosaurs were smart enough not to eat that. Clearly there's no hope for humanity, we won't even make a single million years.
turn out that they get eaten by humans nowadays
Or, made into fuel, children's toys, and let's not forget the, um, adult items they're essential to (so far). 🧏🏼♂️
Fossil fuels are the plants that didn't get eaten up by then yet nonexistent fungi.
Not dinosaurs.
Oh! I was under the impression that petroleum wasn't picky. 😅🙇🏼♂️
[CITATION NEEDED]
But also, they turned out fine. One of them is right outside my window eating suet at this very moment.
They never had meth either
Well, that may work out better
So if I don't start drinking coffee I'll get hit by a meteor?
New Mexico will. Is that what you want?
... a little
Actually, I'm curious if the coffee plant had evolved by then. Thinking not.
Drink coffee or a meteor will fuck up Earth again.
in the futurama episode they did.
Did you know they spray pfas on the inside of those paper coffee cups?
That's bad by the way.
