We are indeed still evolving, though it can be hard to tell because it happens over generations and often involves things you can’t see, such as what foods different people are able to digest.
We are at this very moment evolving to adapt to an environment full of microplastics, to eating ultraprocessed foods, to look at screens for most of the day, etc.
That’s not how evolution works…
and only makes the next generations more adapted to the current environment
It’s random chance, there’s nothing I creasing the next generations odds, and most adaptions will have a negative effect
Just informing that this post contains irony and is mostly a joke
It’s not ironic…
You either fundamentally don’t know what you’re talking about, or are just repeating common misunderstandings as “just a joke bro”?

Isn’t it? There are those who get will sick from micro plastics/ultra processed food or turn Hikikomori from computer entertainment which would reduce their reproduction.
Yeah…those with some genetic cocktail that allows them to survive the new “standard” better will continue to breed more, thereby pushing the species in a forward, yet very slightly different direction.
Thats evolution. Dunno what trip that other dudes on.
