All this comment chain is telling me that everyone in this chain above me has a woman they want to redeem for her love of something questionable, lol. Your morals are soft cuz she gets you hard :p
There are examples of biological mimicry that result from natural selection pressures, leading to the evolution of such an organism.
Heres one thought experiment on why this plant’s evolution to mimic a hummingbird is not that unlikely (keeping in mind that mutations are random, and whatever ends up succeeding due to natural selection pressures doesn’t necessarily imply a deterministic process):
-hummingbirds select to drink from plants that other hummingbirds visit, leading to
-plant reproducing more because hummingbirds drinking from one flower to another helps with pollination, leading to
-plant evolving to look like other hummingbirds drinking from it so real hummingbirds drink from it
We can’t know for sure without doing research of course, but we have enough understanding of natural selection and evolutionary processes to reason about such mechanisms for existing organisms :)
Edit: doesn’t matter if plant native to Australia.You know continents were joined at one point, and evolution takes hundreds or millions of years at times. Also, I don’t mind being mistaken for chat gpt, I am shit posting anyway lol.
I love the low key savage response. Tbh, if I had nothing else I’d eat the right one because it looks less…congealed?

More users usually ruins things, that’s how we ruined and lost the internet.

Damn, I worry this is going to create a lot of psychically and emotionally damaged people of all genders.
My advice to anyone dating is to protect yourself, but be open to the idea that someone may be a good person. If someone can’t be your friend, then they’re not lifelong partner material.
Don’t commit resources to someone until you get married, giving people money for a “relationship” is pretty much the formula of pig butchering scams.
Be careful out there folks.
