Sorry to say, but they do the exact same thing for humans too.
Itâs amazing how people in the notes and comments are absolutely FURIOUS at me for the included Frozen comparison. Special shout out to everyone trying to prove that real people look like this.
Not to mention that when people edit these characters to have better facial proportions, the originals look like bizarre fish people.
How humans draw themselves is always fascinating to me
op why are you speaking like you arenât human iâm scared
EhâŚperhaps read my blog description.
this post has EVERYTHING
I think I know the reason for why people prefer âunrealisticâ animation.
For some reason, humans really donât like things that look like humans but arenât quite human. Hence why a lot of people are uncomfortable with movies with animation like Monster House and The Polar Express. It looks too realistic to us and sets us off.
Scientists call this the âUncanny Valleyâ effect and its thought to be an evolutionary tactic for survival.
The funny part is. No other animals that we know of experience the uncanny valley effect. Only humans. Which leaves the question: what was out there that mimicked humans so well and was so dangerous to us that we evolved to have this as a tactic for survival?
Oh hell yeah this is what Iâm here for

Okay, Iâve seen this thread a dozen times before, but not with this addendum.
i made the original post in the throes of unmedicated depression because thatâs where my sense of humor was at the time. i donât check my activity page. seeing it barge onto my dash months later with +250k notes and this exchange attached to it like a bunch of rattling tin cans attached to the tail of a rabid dog running loose is fucking WILD
So sometime after whenever humans developed the uncanny valley effect, did we just hunt this mysterious predator to extinction? Or did it die out on itâs own? Or did it evolve as well into something⌠else? Could it still be living on Earth today?
Idk why dont we ask the âpeople eating cryptidâ who claims to be from a species thatâs easy to hide and apparently passes as human whoâs like, 3 reblogs above this?
Hey fun fact;
Back when Homo sapiens werenât the end-all of hominids, we also had some other two legged âhumanishâ cousins like the Neanderthals, Denisovians, and more!
There were nine different species of âhumansâ
By 10,000 years ago, they were all gone. The disappearance of these other species resembles a mass extinction. But thereâs no obvious environmental catastrophe â volcanic eruptions, climate change, asteroid impact â driving it.
Instead, the extinctionsâ timing suggests they were caused by the spread of a new species, evolving 260,000-350,000 years ago in Southern Africa: Homo sapiens.
Neanderthal skeletons show patterns of trauma consistent with warfare.
Like language or tool use, a capacity for and tendency to engage in genocide is arguably an intrinsic, instinctive part of human nature.
Optimists have painted early hunter-gatherers as peaceful, noble savages, and have argued that our culture, not our nature, creates violence. But field studies, historical accounts, and archaeology all show that war in primitive cultures was intense, pervasive and lethal.
Basically: the reason we as Homo Sapians find other human-ish figures unsettling and have an instinctual fear/aggression response called âThe Uncanny Valleyâ is because we literally TOOK OVER THE WORLD by hunting down and killing every other hominid on the planet.
Dunno if the â9 species of hominid genocideâ was a result of uncanny valley or the cause of it, but itâs a pretty sure bet to guess theyâre linked.

A pleasant evening to all.I am new here because my friend in Reddit tells to post here. I am sincere kindly asking for financial help for my baby luke for our hospital bills and laboratory and medicine.
He has been admitted since July 6, 2021 at Metro Antipolo Hospital and medical center inc. intensive care unit for 2 weeks after he underwent internal intestine surgery and he is still recovering due to inspection. Our total bills as of August 2021 at Php 459,000 pesos and thatâs still without doctors fee ..
To those who want to give a help any amount for our baby.
I think about dying but I don’t want to die. Not even close. In fact my problem is the complete opposite. I want to live, I want to escape. I feel trapped and bored and claustrophobic. There’s so much to see and so much to do but I somehow still find myself doing nothing at all. I’m still here in this metaphorical bubble of existence and I can’t quite figure out what the hell I’m doing or how to get out of it.
if you’re reading this, i’m putting a thought out into the world for you. a hope that whatever’s worrying you works out in your favor, that a happy moment comes your way, and that you have a heartwarming reason to smile tonight
“humanity is inherently selfish and bad” bbbrrrghuhjfkg. humanity is seeing a stranger’s grocery bag break open on the sidewalk and harvesting fruits and veggies from the branch-like cracks of the asphalt for them, just because you can. humanity is helping a lost child find their mother on a crowded beach, looking for the ladybug-patterned parasol with their hummingbird-small hand in yours. it’s an elder’s fingers wrapped around your arm as you help them up the stairs because the elevator is broken, and feeling like you’re doing exactly what you’re supposed to be doing, like this is what you would’ve been doing had you been alive centuries or even millennia ago. there will always be a heavily pregnant woman who will smile at your when you give up your seat, a nice blind man in the fruit aisle who will ask you to please pick the riper plantain for him, a tired cashier whose face will light up when you compliment their tattoo sleeve. humanity is connection
