  • Yes.

    The common ancestor from which all great apes - chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans and humans - derived and evolved is so far away in evolutionary history that crossbreeding simply became impossible.

    Logic and empiric evidence from other animals, today, suggests there was a period of time where these diverging species could still intermingle and crossbreed. At least in theory. It would be quite hard to take such events as granted and even more to prove it.

    What can be asserted is that through a time scale that is incredibly hard to conceptualize for most - millions of years - from a common ancestor several new species evolved, adapting to their environment and changing in response to it, to the point the “counsins” can no longer recognize each other as such.



  • Simply put, no.

    The nearest you can get to the notion you are trying to explore are crossbreeds between horses and donkeys, dogs and wolves, and captivity involuntary crossbreeding of large cats.

    These crossbreedings are only possible because the animals involved share a common ancestor that is still close enough in the evolutionary history to allow the mating, fertilization and subsequent successful carrying of offspring.

    Dogs and wolves are so close as species their offspring is completely viable. Dogs (canis familiaris) are technically a sub species of wolves (canis lupus).

    Some crossbreeds of big cats are infertile and some are genetically viable. The mating and crossbreeding is possible because all cats are in the same family (felidae), hence, still very close but already far enough between species that offspring may or may not be viable (capable of reproducing afterwards).

    Donkeys and horses are already far apart enough that any offspring is completely inviable.

    So, by this same logic, the more far apart two species are from their common ancestors, the more difficult it becomes to achieve successful crossbreeding or crossbreeding at all.

    A cat and a dog can not crossbreed. A bear and a dog can not crossbreed. Humans and apes can not crossbreed.

    No animal, no life form, can successfully reproduce with another if they are not of the same species or do not share very, very close ancestry.



  • No hate anywhere. Writing by hand is a commited effort. The moment the ink sets, it’s there. No back space to hit and erase whatever you wrote because it doesn’t sound good. You can cross it out but when you go back to read what may have survived you remember what you rejected in the moment and that may actually be useful if tweaked or reviewed.

    And writing by hand is useful. It actuates the body. Works it. Develops fine motor skills. It can even let out cues to mental states in how the hand writing comes out. And it is physical. It exists. It is not an ethereal string of bits that may cease to exist if an electrically charged storage medium fails.


  • If you want to write, just write.

    Get some paper, a pen, sit your butt down and write.

    Don’t use a computer. Not yet. Commit to writing what comes out. Keep the mistakes, the bad spelling, the weird phrasing, everything.

    Just let it out.

    Then get away. And I do mean away.

    Throw it in the corner, maybe behind the cat litter or the dog food or perhaps near the toilet or stand your bed lamp on it.

    Let it get cold. Maybe a week.

    Then go back, read it and, now, you can you the computer or the cellphone to start cleaning up the thing and improving it.








  • I dislike the of minorities being in any way segregated, even if for positive reasons. There should not be that need.

    By default, people deserve and need to be respected and accepted as they are, regardless of skin tone, language, creed, nationality.

    We are humans.

    Our diversity was what made us strong and resilient enough to take the challenges nature put in our collective way as a species. We thrived in adversity because we are diverse and that diversity made us adaptable.

    People are just that: people. Shoe horning a person into something just to look right and proper is idiotic. If someone has the talent, knowledge and know-how to fill a role, they should fill it.
