Bipedal creature found on Earth. First creature in the biosphere to succesfully refine abstract thought into more than the ability to lie and/or delude itself, humans developed the technique of picturing the way things might be and then planning ways to make reality fit the pattern.
This faculty turns in upon itself, however, when the attempt fails, leading to such emotional conflicts as self-loathing, bias against more succesful others, self-worship, or sublimation of individualism into a group mind.

Humans have invented several concepts for themselves, such as artistic endevour for its own sake, resource gathering and stockpiling for its own sake, ignorance and self-delusion as a natural right, love and attraction not solely for the purpose of reproduction, worship of the different, lack of diversity as a positive, and worship of the identical.

Get the Human Dolphin mug.A Human Hamster Wheel is any exercise device used by humans that simulates a strenuous activity. The human mounts the device and peddles, strides, rows or pumps their way to nowhere like a hamster on a wheel. The stair-master is the most obvious example of a human hamster wheel. Exercise bikes, rowing machines and abdominal rollers are also good examples. Humans all over the planet can be seen in 24 hour gyms, at ungodly hours of the night, sweating away on their human hamster wheels, as if in a trance.
