   That's about the weirdest thing isn't it. Some of the best land *on the planet* and the bowniods are like "meh, I'll live in a mountain cave"

     @EvilSandmich @Rasterman Thousands of miles of coastline and subhumanoids never dreamed of a sail, as the saying goes

     @TrevorGoodchild @EvilSandmich @Rasterman while cute, I think what this ends up doing is swallowing up the shipwrighting accomplishments of the Europeans. The effort alone to move some of the giant ass trunks for spars is insane.

     @sickburnbro @EvilSandmich @Rasterman Oh I'm pretty impressed with what the Polynesian islanders could pull off with much more limited boats. There was a great HBD thread suggesting that both the Samoan and Icelandic propensity to muscle hypertrophy was an adaptation to long, cold, wet sea voyages

     @TrevorGoodchild @EvilSandmich @Rasterman yeah, indeed the polynesians had some pretty good boat and sail designs.
