(I tend to know a lot of random trivia)Also, did you know that human gestation is much shorter than it should be (most newborn mammals can walk at birth or shortly after) because somewhere along the way evolution "decided" that the earlier the baby is born, the more social skills it'll get (including language) other skills like walking or pooping properly can wait.

@msdropbear42 Is it pregnant?

@sister_ratched I did know it - I did some weird school project (sheet of cardboard) in which I had pasted pictures of various animals and I had detailed each animal's gestation period next to their picture. Have no idea why.

@francosolerio but not sure what the purpose of your public message is here when you enabled this setting yourself. Why then ask on social network what the app is doing when it's doing exactly what you set it to do...
