I'm thinking of a posthuman evolution of the Mantelopes, I think I'll call them The Centaurs. Although many of the Mantelopes became depressed and suicidal because of their predicament, some of the Mantelopes took the Qu's abandonment differently. They became angered by what the Qu did to them, leaving them with all their knowledge then abandoning them inside an antelopes body. These few Mantelopes decided that the Qu must pay back a thousandfold for what they have done, with all their accumulated knowledge, they will soon return to the stars and have their awaited revenge. They rallied their brothers and sisters to push forward and rebuild everything that they have lost, their society was divided into 2 halves, with one being content with just eating grass and fruits while the other half strived for rebuilding their once galaxywide civilization.
With the use of their teeth and the little utility their "hands" can do, they started smashing rocks together to create knives and cut off tree branches with their powerful jumping ability and bite force in order to make houses. Some of the Mantelopes carved stone tablets to record all the knowledge the Qu gave them and pass them through their young through oral and written literature, they indoctrinated their children of their glorious past and all the knowledge that they can muster.
In a span of 20 years their society went from a Stone Age society to that of a Medieval society, with the angry Mantelopes killing and enslaving the sad and carefree Mantelopes, surprising them with their newly-made steel knives that they brandished their teeth with. Within a hundred years they achieved an industrial level of technology, all thanks to their sheer willpower to regain their status as a galactic power. In a span of a hundred more years they have advanced enough to have the necessary equipment for genetic manipulation, as such they tried to evolve functional hands and a semi-human form similar to the Centaur legends of their Star People ancestors.
With their superior genetics and Qu-level intelligence, they achieved space travel almost immediately after they modified themselves. With their newfound ability for Faster than light travel, they scoured the stars for reources that would enable them to create the technology that the Qu possessed as of the time of their departure, thus they became a spacefaring civilization once more after 300 years of rebuilding, with a cult-like obsession to destroy the Qu as their prime motivation of progress. As Centaurs they became militaristic and warlike in preparation for "The Great War", yet they also maintain an air of refinement, being very particular with beauty standards and luxury that they base upon the legends of the Star People.
Over the centuries, the Centaurs searched and searched for the Qu, but to no avail. Eventually they met the Spacers whom they formed a friendly alliance with, they also met other mutated human species but they did not do anything and would rather observe their growth, they took a particular interest with the Ruin Haunters, seeing some potential in them but they keep their distance so as to not ruin their evolution, this will be a wrong move later on.
Eventually, they did not find the Qu anywhere they search, thus the small empire that they built across the stars slowly fell into disunity, with some worlds choosing a lifenof luxury and hedonism while other formed a warlike culture of pillaging and killing.
This huge divide in their society coupled with the Wu weaponry that they devised led to a few thousand years of civil war, with many of the Centaur worlds destroyed, they lost contact with the other posthumans and reverted back to the Stone Age, while the other Centaurs fled with the Spacers or lived with the Ruin Haunters, helping them shape their society.
After a few million years, the Centaurs modified themselves to become one of the Asteromorphs, others were killed by the Ruin Haunters after they learned knowledge from them, effectively erasing them from their history, while many who were hit the most by the wars regressed back to a primitive society, too afraid to even rebuild their world again, and forcefully tried to forget their warlike past, eventually becoming tribal like their Mantelope ancestors.
And thus, after 100,000 years, the voices of the Mantelopes fell silent, the society that they formed through anger and a thirst for vengeance also became the cause of their demise.
A lot of folks overlook the fact that anthropologists have shown that in many societies the mouth and teeth serve as a sort of "fifth hand", so this definitely is something I could see happening. For crying out loud, the Sailpeople outright used their tongues as hands so it's not even a foreign concept in the lore.
I freaking love this! Though what would Centaur-Asteromorphs look exactly like Spacer-Asteromorphs?
This is perfect! Looks like someone beat me to the punch. I so badly want to illustrate this now, with your permission and input of course
@@bajathylacine8764 You could do the honors! The Mantelopes deserve a better ending. Just don't forget to credit @FoodEater123 haha
@@snickersbaja7706 They would probably look like Terrestrials, only much more intelligent. I could say the Asteromorphs developed the Terrestrials with the strong physical genetics of the old Centaurs in order to survive any planetary environment.

Here before this turns into the top comment
@@Laikafan02 I’ve been noticing that's been happening recently whenever I comment on an AT video.
@@dank_smirk2ndchannel200 that’s becuse your famous now
@@themasterofstuff1416 feels good man.
Tbf, the Qu didnt design the flesh bricks to not succeed, only to eat waste and be aware of waste eating.
Next you'll be knocking the saurosapiens' human mounts for never evolving sapience.
well, at least now they dont suffer as they dont remember
They forgor 💀
They forgor 😉🤪🤪🥵
Cries in colonials
They rember 😃
@@Mannvonkrieger oh no
Poor lads. Felt terrible to see them not evolve.
Yeah, they could've maybe made fake hands or used their mouths to at least get somewhere with evolving.
@@bimates2690 yeah I had the exact same thought
I think that maybe was part of the punishment
@@majordonut4022 it wasn't punishment the mantilopes were fore humor
I was kind of bummed out when I found out the mantelopes where not included when someone did these ultra-detailed portraits and bios of what the Titans, Temptors, Bone-Crushers, and Blindfolk would have become had they survived to join in on the Second Summer of Mankind. That would have been neat to see
The difference between the Mantelopes and the Colonials is that Mantelopes had the capacity to commit not-alive and end their sorry existence, with only the Mantelopes with smoother brains remaining since they don't exactly have much to complain about. Colonials meanwhile are incapable of taking that option, being forced to endure until one day limbs are developed.
I think its more based on who they were before hand. Even before they became flesh bricks the Colonials were chads who beat the Qu off two times before getting transformed and even then their will didnt break when their bodies did and that will carried on through the years until they became the Modular Chads
Meanwhile the Mantelopes were like "Well guess I'll just die"
@@starsilverinfinity Evolution doesn't occur in a single organism, it occurs over several generations of mutations and natural selection. Even if the first wave of Colonials had that iron will, what are the odds that it would pass on to their offspring?
@@TheLovelyVocal I meant it metaphorically not literally - the Colonials came from people who resisted until the end and in the end the species lasted long enough to rise from what the Qu gave them, which is abit reminiscent of how the people they came from refused to give up in the face of the threat of the Qu aka a challenge
Meanwhile the mantelpoes kinda did the opposite of that
Besides the concept of people passing down stuff over generations isn't a new concept - not in a literal fashion but more in a "You set around the campfire and remind them what you're fighting for" fashion. off the top of my head the colonials could still communicate so that's something
I guess the colonials were so limited they didn't even have the ability to kill themselves, feeding on wathever fell on their faces, but still makes me wonder how they managed to mate and produce offspring (the book shows one of them shoving a "tentacle" on another's "orifice", so I guess that's the answer?), also I wonder if they couldn't try to commit suicide by starving themselves to death, although that's so painful and agonizing it probably wasn't worth it, plus maybe the qu engineered them to have a feeding reflex action so strong they can't avoid it
off topic but I'm not sure how they survived after the qu left given they feed on their waste, maybe some other biomass thrived on the planet...
@@Ranzord95 The “tentacle” into another orifice is exactly that- it was alluding to how barnacles mate- many barnacles are hermaphroditic and have the longest penis in relation to body size of any animal- they stick it into nearby barnacles to fertilize others. I figure many people who read this book don’t realize many of these human descendant designs are based on animals from earth. Even lopsiders demonstrate parallels to asymmetric flatfish- they were essentially human “flounders”.
Makes sense what happenned to them. The smart ones, with a human mind, were so depressed that they chose to die, not to mention very few would want to mate. The ones who went with the flow and became stupid animals managed to thrive.
Big brain takes more nutrients to sustain, dumb grazing animals are more efficient than thinking ones, simple as that.
of course it makes sense
you are literally quoting the book
Weren't the colonials pretty much human brains in blobs of flesh? I thought they were pretty smart too.
@@L.A.M.B_B4 why are you bringing up colonials? We are talking about mantelopes.
@@t111ran3 Because he said the ones who went with the flow and became stupid animals managed to thrive, but the colonials weren't exactly stupid animals.
"It's just a burning memory" actually fits pretty damn well to the Mantelopes.
Yeah
"I remember when we were star people, the Qu, the millions slaughtered, the experiments, thanks to becoming a memory retainer I retained my humanity but here I am, trapped in the body of a large quadrupedal herbivore, forever unable to forgive and forget, my people will sing songs of our grief from this day forward until the day comes when our kind are gone or have lost our humanity, I have no mouth and I must scream"
Basically
I’ll screenshot this comment for later.
smart enough to suffer disphoria
nice reference
Colonial: "We tried to fight the Qu and for our actions we where made into living toilets with our memories intact to let us know that the Qu think this was our fault. Maybe we're hopeful or maybe we're to dumb to quit, either way we refuse to give up our humanity and die out. We will come together and become something greater what we are now, no matter how long it takes."
No idea why but Everywhere at the End of Time fits All Tomorrows super well, like they where both made for each other. Any one feels the same way too??
I agree
EATEOT: existantial time horror
All Tomorrows: existential space horror
I agree too.
they are both masterworks in niche psycological horror subgenres and became famous beacause a video got viral beacause youtube algorithm. They are more similar than i thought
Both are works about degeneressence in a way
These poor giraffe dudes deserved better- at least they ended up not remembering about the horror of their existence anymore
I would love to see someone do a "what-if" picture and bio on what the mantelopes could have evolved into had they made it to join the other post-humans in the Second Summer of Mankind
They might not have died... The book didn't specify this.
@@BasedPureblood The book says that "their animal children overtook them within a hundred-thousand years, leaving their once melancholic world silent", so technically they lived on in a way but utterly deprived of their human minds
Atleast it's not the fate of the Lizard Hearders... They became a reptile's bitch figuratively and literally.
A evey, very intresting concept.. evolve, forget, evolve
Imagine if we one day discovered horses were once intelligent, but apparently became genetically engineered by something else?
Would be quite a shock to be sure

You did a really great job showing these species slow regression to animal instincts; the skull becoming smaller, more hair on the neck, the nose becoming a snout. Then the last frame as the now animal smiles in ignorance, all in about a minute
With this art style it makes me forget their humans!
they're*
Just like they did.
@@ajoajoajoaj Sad but true
Slowly but surely they lost their intelligence. But in its absence, they found peace and animalistic joy. In a way they got their happily ever after
The Virgin Mantelope: I can't talk, I don't have hands, why should we keep going?
The Chad colonials: We are sentient flesh that cannot do anything of significance, we must keep going for our future generations.
The Thadd Gravitals: haha meteorite goes fwoosh
The Gigachad Astereomorphs: Look at these sad fuckers *BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP*
@@BasedPureblood The Sigmachad author: wow what happened to these guys lol
@@devinward461 The Sugmachad Asteromorphs: **literally ascended ez**
It's not that they want to keep going, it's just that they are so efficient at living they can't even die of old age or insanity.
And once you go down to the bottom, the only way to go is up, after all. :)
Qu minding their own business but then humanity shows up for revenge
Qu: who are you
Humanity: you horrifically genetically modified us against our will
Qu: do you know how little that narrows it down
The funny thing is that this isn't even a joke, the Amphaecuculi (however you spell it) themselves had just a long and strange history of evolution as the posthumans, who knows how many sentient species across the universe where changed by the Qu. I would not be surprised if the alien author and the aliens that the bugfacers fought where also the ancestors of races that the Qu altered in the name of their religion
@@snickersbaja7706 I can just picture a massive galactic army appear out of nowhere around the Qu all end games like
oh hell nah
Mantelope wished for death but It never came, and then eventually he stopped thinking
Freaking this!
When the Qu stomp with Kars on the middle of Space
Porky Minch reference?
Every creature in all tomorrows aged like milk
Spacers: Yeah...
I think one notable exception would be the colonials, and how they evolved into the ultimate life form; the modular people. Ironic, considering they had arguably the worst starting conditions
The Asteromorphs aged like a fine wine my boi
The astromorphs are kinda cool
mantalopes technically aged perfectly, their suffering ended
I love how you can visibly see the moment they lose clarity.
You can see their humanity slowly fading away. Tragic.
Nice use of Everywhere At The End Of Time. Such a horrifying life, the mantelopes had.
"I can't hold on, it's just too much to take it"
"I, can't hold on, it's just too much"
"I can't, this just.."
"I.. can't"
"I"
"..."
AHHHHHHHH GOOODD
😭😭😭😭😭
From destroying stars and shooting mini black holes to: Me walk, eat food, yes.
That... actually ain't sounding so bad
Everywhere at the End of Tomorrows
God the way his face changes. You can actually see how it loses its soul, how it just becomes a mindless animal. Excellent work.
He's more antelope than man now.
Do the colonials turning into modular people
it's just this but reverse
The incel mantelopes : Oh god only my thumbs are left guess i'll become retarded or sadden out like a bitch
The lad colonials : our only purpose is to eat Qu's shit? Well we can work with that and create a utopia
yeah the modular people was an upgrade
This is actually brilliant. As the years go by, the Mantelope slowly necomes more Antelope than Man. And the detail of they eyes slowly becoming less aware, until they eventually look into the abyss is horrifying!
Colonials and Mantelopes are probably the smartest post humans and yet they both had to suffer fates where their intelligence amounted to absolutely nothing, but pain. At least the Colonials somehow evolved, but for millions of years they had the worst fate imaginable and they couldn't even vocalize their pain.
This video captures how there intelligence is just- slowly drifting away. How lifeless there eyes are at the end.
It's beautiful.
Pretty cool! Like how you managed to make them look kinda cute!
If you mean "cute" as *absolute psychological and body horror* then you're right
@@the_pumpking_ Was honestly mainly thinking of the last one after the credits.
I feel sad seeing this, please do more
Not the Everywhere at the End of Time audio! Then paired up with them 😭🤚🏽
I NOTICED TOO AND IM BAWLING MY EYES OUT
A species of many created as an abstract form of punishment simply preserve the culture and memories their creators saw little value in, with the bare minimum of a tongue to utter melodies to their stories and share their pain with no other way to express their miserable existence. Forced into an isolated suffering in their useless animal bodies and no other way to express their screaming for help. After time flies, the pain slowly ceases as everyone starts to forget what agony was dealt to them. A man’s memories have value as they may be used to cherish and provoke bliss but it was something the Mantelopes no longer needed, if there is no more memories, there is no more suffering. Every song and misery stopped as this was because the best way to move forward was to never look back until they didn’t have a choice anymore.
Welcome to All Tomorrows, Folks.
Technically weren't they able to actually verbally sing and speak, forming entire religions around their angst and loss?
@@snickersbaja7706 I checked back into the text and you are correct! I'm not entirely sure about the religion thing but I will be editing the text to fit in the missed detail :) thank you for pointing it out to me
imagine how sad itd be, watching the Mantelope's speech regress from an ancient, articulated language all the way to what could be noises from a horse or elephant. complex sentences turn into blunt grammar, then to short paraphrased words, to grunts and moans and then finally to something truly animalistic and devoid of any sapience that was so meticulously preserved by the Qu.
@@GhoulyRooly I double-checked and the text basically does say "entire religions and oral traditions sprung up revolving around this crippling condition, as rich and varied as any found amongst ancient humanity"
@@suziebelle3738 Truly tragic, almost a generations long version of Flowers For Algernon
genuinely incredible, i like that you didnt forget the subtle changes of evolution over time even if it doesnt take them anywhere, just showing how their features randomly shift
thank you for noticing :,)
All songs:
A1 - Its Just a Burning Memory
C3 - What Does It Matter How My Heart Breaks
E2 - And Heart Breakes
F4 - Burning Despair Does Ache
F8 - Mournful Cameraderie
G1 - Post Awareness Confusions
* Unholy crying sobs getting softer and softer as if geting farther away *
And the song at the very end is just plain Heartaches, It’s Just A Burning Memory’s sample.
i imagine a alternative reality where the mantelopes begane to artificialli select themselfs and end up in a civilization
Someone should make a bio and picture of this simular to that one artist who did this for the Blindfolk, Temptors, Titans, and Bone-crushers
The book never specified that they went extinct. This could be a good tale.
@@BasedPureblood So you are suggesting that the mindless descendents of the mantelopes may have re-evolved intelligence millions of years later, assuming their sun did not get destroyed by the Gravitals? That would be neat if that could happen
@@snickersbaja7706 Would be about as likely as some random grazing animal today giving rise to an intelligent species capable of civilization building.
@@KeegoonBarnacle Yeah but this is in the same universe where countless unintelligent post-human species re-evolved human level intelligence and traveled back into the stars (in one case using freaking sea-life as technology to go into space)
Literally the "Your brain = bumpy ugly, my brain = smooth cute" meme given form
> denied humanity
> become horse
And slowly start to lose your memories...
"It's evolving just backward"
Virgin Mantaolope gets turned into grazing animal:
"I'm sooooo sad. Woe is me."
Chad Colonial gets turned into literal block of flesh designed to eat shit forever:
"I DIDN'T HEAR NO BELL"
You can see how the eyes become more and more non-sapian. Great work!
the thing about colonials vs the mantelopes is that the former had less freedom to do anything BUT evolve.
the mantelopes had limbs and lives and their songs where they obsessed their woes.
the colonials were created by the Qu to live hardily and suffer,
while the mantelopes were simply made to suffer.
There is a major difference
Mantelopedes kept their memories of their life as a star people
while colonials simple had intelligence
Odd how things play out in the long run
@@bondrewd3939 Uh no the colonials also had the memories
The book never specified that they went extinct...
All human descendents became extinct by the time of The Author. However, for all we know they may have endured for tens of millions of years.
@@miquelescribanoivars5049 the Author is speaking from his Perspective. He doesn't actually know and he himself is unsure of whether they went extinct or not.
This can be used as a plot point for somebody to pickup...
@@BasedPureblood You could say that.
But its been over 1 Billion Years, that's roughly twice as long as the Fanerozoic. What do you think are the chances that some primate llama would survive for all that time in that one planet? Also consider than when the Gravitals took over they exterminated all organic life besides the subjects, while not stated outright I doubt many, if any non-sapient human species survived their genocide.
Man, I didn't expect this to be so sad
OH HELLO IT'S YOU

Alright, I'll see you then
rest well!
I believe they devolved so quickly because they couldn’t communicate. We thrive off socialisation but because they couldn’t understand each other as they could only sing they just became animals.
the smarter ones killed themselves and refused to reproduce. the dumber ones are controlled by impulses so they bred and that became the pattern until they were the only ones left
Hugs, nudges, morse, cursive, new language based off grunts, playing, neo-furries... even if they couldn't speak, humanity has the strenght(unless the future folk became man-children or ultra-pampered), and some hatred fueled charismatic individuals have always managed to unite and movilize us
:3
man, watching that eye become docile and void of intelligence over time was disturbing. great job
Best way to make me depressed
Remind me of everywhere at the end of time while showing probably the saddest thing in all tommorows
-Mantelope happy. ◉‿◉
-But why? ಠಿ_ಠ
-Mantelope forgor. ◉‿◉
i love how you’re using everything at the end of time music which is a musical representation of dementia for a post human who’s purpose is to remember things- thought it was a funny little parallel
All Tomorrows + The Caretaker = infinite sad.
All Tomorrows at least has that small flamme of hope
The Caretaker is just pure sadness
Can I just say that the All Tomorrows fan base is so fucking awesome. All of you add to the lore and back story.
"Eventually, the Mantelopes stopped thinking."
love the SCC intro music at the intro
Eventually, Mantelopes turned into something, that is more of an Antilope, than it is Humane. The whole meaning of the existence of the Mantelope vanished and they continued living their average lives as animals.
For once, ignorance is really a blissful dream for the mantelopes
I haven't listened to Everywhere At The End Of Time in a while and this gave me the visceral flashback I needed
first time I saw this I had a feeling it'd be eateot because I knew what happened to the mantelopes and because listening to eateot was a slow descent into numbness until terminal lucidity happened at the end
How about the Spacers' transition into Asteromorphs? That'd be neat.
just an expanding head wing
Mantelopes: existence is pain.
Qu: ah yes, pop music
the smile at the end cheered me up :D can’t be depressed if you don’t remember what made you depressed :D
I have never been so anticipated in seeing a video so I will only comment cheese
Cheese nuts
maybe we should have made it so it kept it's intelligence permanently
Essentially they are the odd counterpart to the Hedonists whom where made dumb and lived very happy lives, eventually becoming sapient again and now with the full intelligence to fully enjoy their own wild lifestyles and the Second Summer of Mankind
he forgor 💀
This song gives me depressing memories from a distant time, as I dont wish to speak of thee, all of these poor creatures Can't remember anything, but at least they can now live in happyness
OMG WHY????
"Everywhere at the end of time"????
I'm CRYING!
This is so good yet so NQHDIZBJW ED
The everything at the end of time track really works for this
Step 1: Colonize your local cosmos
Step 2: Bring fourth an age of harmony across said cosmos
Step 3: Find another alien species in your cosmos
Step 4:
*July 27, 3174, The Tomorrow Incident*
How'd you come up with that date?
Eventually, the Mantelopes stop thinking
Freaking dang, when I recommended you do the mantelopes next I was expecting something sad but not with this level of nuance. It is the lack of overly melodramatic pathos to the point of humor common to a lot of mantelope memes and some other videos that really captures the subtle tragedy of the mantelopes' final fate. Bravo indeed!
just when i thought it couldn't get more depressing, comes "anywhere at the end of time: all tomorrow's edition".
Proposition: Satyriacs singing something idiotic
I think this is the first time I’ve seen anyone do the degradation of the Mantelope, showing how they become more beast like each generation.
Okay I love how their face changes as the video goes on, looking less human and more like a mindless animal
Honestly I'd be much happier as a mantelope. Wandering around, eating leaves, screaming my favorite songs at the top of my lungs.
You can see the humanity just slowly leave his eyes. Poor guy.
And eventually, the mantelopes stopped thinking
This was ferociously sad.
The more intelligent the thing, the more it feels, if your partner feels nothing, its likeley there's nothing inside what you call a human being
Poor mantelopes. I can't imagine their situation.
Smooth Mantelope survives more than big-brain…..it’s efficient for pets, occasional BLT(bear lion tiger) and humans to have a big brain, unlike other animals, so “she” is partially wrong for the “hurting animals is wrong” policy she went by….
The "mountains" in the background might be so triangular because they are actually Qu pyramids.
Do a video of the betrayal of the Lopsiders by the Asymmetrical people, i'm sure you'll make it funny
A while ago I wanted to make a concept album or EP or whatever that consists of songs that the mantelopes would have sung during and after their descent into non-sapience. I might eventually revisit that idea.
Edit: it's occuring to me that I might have taken the source text too literally
The worm's gradual ascent into chill snakes
He turned himself into a horse
Saddest shit i ever seen
Mantelope: "Change da world... my final message... good bye..." *fades into a dumb animal*
Colonials and sail people: *P A T H E T I C*
Ignorance was bliss, in the end....
Ver el pasar de los días con una consiencia que se muere por explorar el mundo , limitado por sus cuerpos nefastos
Una escena dura
Mantelope:stupid and happy
Me:I think im a mantelope
the virgin mantelopes vs the chad colonials
Well shit, RUclips knows that I'm into all tomorrows and the caretaker's music, may as well recommend this gold.
Honestly, IMO the mantelopes have one of the worst fates after the colonials, they had a major advantage and a headstart in intelligence but they couldn't use it, and instead of evolving to be bipedal they devolved slowly and slowly, and I think at some point they got so dumb that they couldn't even eat or drink so they died out
Beautiful animation
Mantelopes: "I can‘t do anything with my body that can evolve us!"
Modular people: Are we a joke to you?
I wished the Mantelopes evolved or at least had a another alien come over to be friends with, I really wonder what they would look like and if they would try to get revenge or something along those lines I mean these hybrids really had everything they could have convince everyone to work together and kill the Qu if they managed to get to their planets and didn’t immediately get murdered by them.
Someone just previously posted a comment saying what their concept was for this idea, complete with a full on history
Because of psychologycal trauma they increased they memory cappacity: THEY REMEMBER EVERYTHING INCLUDING ALL QU INFO of unspeakable evil.
THEY USE THEIR MINDS AS FLASH DRIVES...
AND AFTER GAVE THEM "final gift" all information what they to do in another galaxies.
They minds can't handle that and they simply descend into dread depression.
I'm blown away by how meme culture has integrated everywhere at the end of time. never thought such a genuinely soul-crushing album would become so ubiquitous that it's used in silly little videos like this all the time
I mean, this video isn’t really meant to be silly I don’t think- it’s sad and meaningful in its own right, at least to me. Regardless I do agree- it is interesting how humanity makes memes out of stuff like that. I think it’s kinda in the same vein of memes of real people crying and being upset- and even honestly All Tomorrow’s itself, a deep and thought provoking work. Not saying a lot of these memes are wrong or anything, just interesting, to me personally.
I like how it slowly morphs to be less and less humanlike. Over the generations, the mantelopes losing their human intelligence and knowledge and reverting to simple herd animals.
eatot/heartaches fits perfectly here
