hobbies masterpost!

a really excellent way to reduce anxiety is to pick up a new hobby. find something you’re interested in, learn it, then use it as a healthy and productive way to cope.

honestly even the highest concept sci-fi seems tame once you learn BioSteel™ Goats exist irl

What the fuck are you talking about

you know. the spider goats. the goats spliced with spider genes.

they shoot bulletproof webbing out of their udders!

ok ok that last part’s not technically true, but the truth is still pretty nifty:

  • yes these goats really exist! in most ways they are normal goats, except for how they secrete spider silk in their milk
  • (or rather, they secrete a special protein in their milk, which is then extracted and woven into silk fibers)
  • their DNA contains transplanted genes taken from the Golden Orb Weaver Spider, whose silk is incredibly strong–but can’t be naturally produced in large quantities. because…spiders are tiny ya’ll.
  • these superpowered web-slinging spidergoats genetically modified but otherwise normal and healthy goats can produce much larger amounts of this material (marketed as BioSteel), which is stronger than steel and more bulletproof than kevlar. plus it’s lightweight, elastic, and bio-compatible (compatible with living tissue), meaning it has a ton of potential industrial and medical applications.
  • (imagine 40 years from now you need knee surgery, and your doctor sits you down and explains that your shiny new anterior cruciate ligament was actually artificially woven out of SPIDER GOAT MILK SILK. also in this magical hypothetical future we have universal healthcare. and the wealth of all billionaires has been globally redistributed. this is my hypothetical scenario, i do what i want.)
  • like i said. pretty nifty!
  • and here is a photo of one such genetically modified BioSteel™ Goat, her name is Freckles

May I add the fantastic glow in the dark cats. They’ve been tagged with a gene from jelly fish that causes them to glow and that can be passed down. Was used to help study how other genes were passed.

for those wondering, yes glow-in-the-dark jellyfish cats are a real thing and they are helping scientists with AIDS research

I love how this reads as if the cats are actively choosing to assist with scientific research.

obsessed with how mark s is kind and clever and loyal and a little bit of a stick in the mud sometimes, but slowly learning to be grow and accept change and be brave for the people he loves in the face of impossible odds, and then mark scout is the most annoying scrungly douchebag who has to be bullied into doing anything even vaguely related to the plot.

This is THE most accurate description of their characters I’ve ever read.

That part where they’re talking about how rare it is for a network show to have such an active audience and how they don’t know how it’s like that:

Gay people

The answer is gay people

Mentally ill gay people to be exact

vampires making that “mhm mhm” sound as they feed from someone has me nodding my head like yup that’s the good shit right there

Genius

I love it when pets do the thing where they've clearly figured out that certain steps result in an outcome, but they can't quite DO it themselves.

The cat understands that their food is in this container, and that their human gets it, and brings it to the dishes, and then there's food.

But having no thumbs has prevented them from their triumph.

I on the other hand love that he insists on using the bowl even though he could probably just rip/chew a hole in the bag.

Which indicates that he's probably not quite sure WHICH of the steps are crucial so he's earnestly repeating them all.

(kids do this too - it's called overimitation and there are experiments on it.)
