until y'all start being normal about aroallos, you're not actually supportive of complex queer identies 🥱

Influencers sell products. They are commercials. Not your friends. They sell themselves, they sell an image, they lie about themselves to sell more. They pretend to live a certain way to sell more. They are not your friends. And they certainly do not sell you the products they believe are good for you, just the ones they get paid for the most.

I'd also like to take this moment to gripe about people who can explain in great detail the motivations of a Forsaken, but can't figure out Seanchan, especially Tuon's, motivations. The whole painting Seanchan as the "true evil" is missing the point in so many ways I don't even know where to start.

Dug the frames of this gif up so I could make a new Tiffany Aching gif, and they're so satisfying to look at :)
I'm not actually that good at anatomy, I took heavy reference off Kiki's Delivery Service!

the whole "we need more content about the non-men" narrative going around on tiktok and twitter is stupid. and im gonna rant
why? because that content is out there. interact with it. there a fics about them, there is fan art, there are edits, and guess what!!!! just like everything about this fandom... they can and do exist in your brain.
another thing. don't complain about it and then when people start creating more content, fail to interact with it. fic writers write what they love, BUT are more motivated when there are people (even just one person) out there that wants to read it.
like... the amount of people i see asking for ships or characters or whatever that they want (which asking/demanding it is another issue) and then ignoring it when it's right there, is actually absurd.
the "problem" is not even a problem. stop acting like it is. you don't sound woke by demanding more attention for women (and then posting primarily about men) you just sound annoying.

Full disclosure: I’ve pretty much only heard arguments for YE Creationism and would disagree with you on that BUT I have long wished to find someone who DIDN’T and still believes in the inerrancy of Scripture and God’s great love and power and EVERYTHING. Because I really want to know what has led them to a different conclusion (not to argue, but to know more fun stuff!). So finding your blog is a delight. 😁.
Therefore, I submit to you 🧬 to ask for cool facts!!
I'm so glad that you're here <3
Alright, since you're coming from a YE Creationist background, let me show you a video of evolution actually occurring on camera. This is beautiful.
Antibiotic resistance is one of the easiest to demonstrate types of microbial evolution, and it's incredibly harmful. Yet every time I see this simple demonstration, I'm bowled over with the beauty of it all over again.
This is the raw power of descent with modification for you. Each time the bacteria on this plate come up against a stronger concentration of antibiotic, there's a lag until somewhere, among the millions and millions of bacteria on the plate, a mutation arrives that can combat it. For argument's sake, maybe a tiny change in amino acid sequence leads to a more efficient efflux pump to remove the antibiotic from the cell. And then that cell replicates clonally, and its descendants spread across the dish, and then it comes up against the next boundary and it happens all over again.
And of course, the crazy thing is that each of the individual mutations that allow the bacteria to overcome the antibiotic is completely novel. No two are the same. When these researchers ran genetic sequencing on the bacteria that were able to colonize each subsequent region of the plate, they confirmed this. The various new strains that met up in the middle of the plate were all different.
The raw power of random mutation + time is incredible. Nature is endlessly inventive because God is endlessly inventive.
Protein sequence space is enormous. How enormous? There are more possible configurations for a protein 100 amino acids long than there are atoms in the universe. Every time antibiotic resistance evolves, it happens all new.
Even though antibiotic resistance is definitely a bad thing for humans, it reminds me of the verse in Lamentations that says, "His mercies are new every morning." It reminds me of Chesterton's observations about God's infinite attention span. Like a child, each time saying, "Do it again."
