I get why they were scared now.

I did not expect a NoP reference here, but nevertheless it was what I immediately thought about seeing this image lmao.

Imagine a poor venlil born with this defect.

[–] RangerJosey@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 hours ago

Not having access to NoP anymore was the worse part of being permabanned from reddit. I love it.

Suddenly those creepy Renaissance paintings of animals make a lot more sense.

[–] xorollo@leminal.space 28 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Is this from the never ending story?

[–] Scott_of_the_Arctic@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

Falkor wasn't played by Anthony Head in the version I saw.

[–] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Despite my love for Jim Henson, I still can’t get over the movie adaptation turning Falkor into a fucking dog-worm.

[–] xorollo@leminal.space 4 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

Oh my gosh. Is there a book?!

[–] TerHu@lemm.ee 7 points 14 hours ago

yes and my copy has the text in red and green ink depending on whether it’s describing reality of the fantasy world. it’s an awesome book!

[–] Ceruleum@lemmy.wtf 4 points 13 hours ago

There are two books ... ;-))

I'm going to guess as an island species, it had no natural predators, and therefore the evolutionary pressure for it to have a wide field of view did not exist

[–] JoeBidet@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It went extinct 5000y ago.. so it has to be a reconstitution based on fossils..?

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

5000 years could mean bones rather then fossils.

[–] dan69@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)
