    Imagine we couldn’t actively breathe but instead got all out air by running into the air to force it into your lungs

    Sounds terrifying, how do they sleep?

      Their brains evolved to put different parts of itself to sleep at a time.

      Iirc sharks put one half of their brain to sleep at a time. Though that might be dolphins I honestly don’t remember.

      Hell it might even be both my brain is a tangled ball of yarn lmao
