    Is this some New Biology being proposed? I figure lots of people don’t realize that snakes are tetrapods, but didn’t think anyone would mistake them for mammals.

    YNNB, most people I know don’t even recognize snakes as animals. They think that animals = mammals (and not humans, which is why my students struggle at the first of the semester when I say humans and other animals rather than humans and animals).

    WAM, that is exactly what I was going to say. And how do we know some animals kill themselves over gender dysphoria? Did the cat psychologist tell you that is why your cat ran in front of that car?

    It’s easy to make statistical assertions about a set of zero.

    All mammalian snakes have telekinetic powers.

    Half of mammalian snakes contain black holes.

    A quarter of mammalian snakes consider themselves to be birds.

    Papito, did you know that some mammalian snakes have knees? It’s true! I heard it…somewhere…

    She/they claims to be 18. Let’s say that’s a young 18.

    You’ll note that she makes no mention of avian snakes. She’s obviously a TASERF.

    Mammalian snakes – maybe Maggie’s last boyfriend cheated on her?

    Exactly how do these mammalian snakes and live birth frogs commit suicide? By leajping or slithering out of the fervid imagination of Maggie into a world of facts where they cannot survive?

    Maggue, what happened to all those live birth frogs? Did they croak?

    I’m here all week. Try the frogs legs.

    Dammit! I’ve just thought of a better punchline to my question of where all the live birth frogs went.

    They Kermitted suicide.

    Taxi!
