Secret Tunnel 🎶
The tiny thumbnail for this looked like a belly button on my phone, had no idea what I was tapping on at first
A(lmost)NSFW
The fun part is that you were more curious than apprehensive and were willing to subject yourself to whatever the Internet brought you for the day.
Big enough to be comfortably used by humans
Pffffbtbtbt, housing crisis schmousing crisis. There’s your answer, chaps.
Coober Peby Australia has you covered!
If they still existed they would probably have moved into existing human-mined tunnels. Whether they’d wait until we abandoned them or chase us out, or help us build them, would depend on our relationship with them
“A train derailed in the tunnel due to a giant sloth sleeping on the tracks. No word of survivors at the time of recording, but officials say that they are expecting multiple fatalities including the sloth.”
What if we domesticated them and used them to mine coal?
that sounds like the plot of Ring of Fire
I may not be remembering correctly, but didn’t Sloth dig the tunnel in Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood?
Edit: had to look it up. He did. Probably a coincidence
And what happened to the giant sloths?
Miniaturisation and the march of progress
How do you think we got tardigrades
We domesticated them and made purse sloths.
Earth warms up from ice age. Big sloth too fuzzy. Loses fuzz and tries to climb tree. Big sloth too big. Small big sloth gets smaller, climbs tree.
These giant slots dug these giants tunnels to hide from whom?
To hide from their responsibility.

even bigger sloths
To protect their young would be my guess.
Short-faced bear or humans.
I wasn’t sure if this was true or a weird misunderstanding or conspiracy type thing. Seems to be true. Here is an accessible writeup: https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20231127-brazils-mysterious-tunnels-made-by-giant-sloths
I thought this was a posting to “Idiots of Facebook” at first. Guess I’m the idiot
So long and thanks for the avacados!
… Looks like the recent images from inside my sinus’.
Less boogies though.
Can you imagine being stuck in the dawn of human agriculture, and you seek shelter in a nice cave that you found… And then a Giant Sloth just lumbers in after a bit.
I mean, I imagine any Homo species of the time would know not to go inside one of these, but still.
Megatheriums were herbivores, so it would be like spending the night with an elephant.
I hear what you’re saying, and I recognize anyone inside would be safe from being eaten… However, as with an elephant, I wouldn’t want to be woken up in the middle of the night having intruded upon their home.
nah they’d be chill. They’d be like “waaat” and make some initial annoyed sounds at first, but then once you pull out the bong they’d settle down real quick
Giant Sloths high as fuck… Would that make the super sloths, or go the opposite way and speed them up?
Sounds a lot like Minecraft.
Sloths are well known for their industrious nature.

I don’t know, it sure seems like there’s an idea this poster has passed on to all of us…
But it’s been shared
Given the community we’re in—what’s a meme?
Sloth city.
That’s in the south, right? I heard a lot of humanists and that ilk are trying to stop them from building it?
You are thinking of Pig City in Georgia.
Wait, what?
I was making a joke about cop city. Sorry it sucked😒
It probably didn’t, I just don’t have the reference in my head for it.
