    I mean if you want to suck the fun out of it only 4/22 of horseshoe crab species survived.

    Saying any species not evolving for millions of years is a misnomer anyway. A living fossil only superficially resemble ancient species. Since both nautilus and horseshoe crabs are considered living fossils I thought it’s a fair comparison.

    But this is a silly little comic ultimately about the existential dread of modern human life so this level of pedantry isn’t needed.
