Neil deGrasse Tyson, on Cosmos, brings up the “Tree of Life” metaphor. I like mine better.

That’s not a Tree of Life–THIS is a tree of life.

Since the music plays so briefly... Can you blame me if I dance?
I don’t see any slugs on that tree so it fails as a representation of molluscular life.
There’s one on the other side of the tree.
I likes it!
Evolution is like an octopus, exploring, spreading …
And science itself, very like a nautilus. Really.
Where’s Vampyromorphida on this tree?
Don’t tell anyone, but every single one of these is a mimic octopus.
So pretty!
So cuddley!!!
Wot aboot kitties an hamsters, eh?
What and what, now? Are you sure they exist?
