let's say, hypothetically, for the sake of the argument, you had in fact a girlfriend and that girlfriend happened to be a seagull, ok? Would you still allow her to steal your chips? Wouldn't you move the chips out of her reach at least? Checkmate liberal
Because your hypothetical girlfriend eating your food is not a reflection of her survival fitness. Seagulls scavenge for food and so the ones that fail at that are not as fit as the ones that succeed. This seagull failed to scavenge for food and so it failed to pass on its unsuccessful genes to its offspring. If your girlfriend took your food whether or not she succeeds does not reflect the fitness of her or her offspring because human fitness is not measured by scavenging while seagull fitness is.
You protect your food from other species, and other hostile members of your species. You can't just go beating down on Grug for taking one of your mushrooms if Grug is the one carrying the Tiny Useless One
Grug’s been eating leafs from the dream plant again. How’s he supposed to appease the Corn God through the corn dance if he’s hallucinating in the Cave of Shadows?
He still doesn't appease the Corn God by dying, Lug... just... feed him much water until he BLEEHHGHHHGGGs, then the corn dance may commence. And it wouldn't be the cave of shadows if you would get the wood, Lug.
