Box Jellyfish Chirp!

I always make sure to mention this at every chance I get, but a box jellyfish put into an ideal position (so this one, basically- it's the only one I've seen actually make this noise) will chirp

// ok, "whistle" is probably the most correct term in this situation since I believe the sound is just air coming out of the jelly's velarium (what water typically passes through when the jelly swims underwater)

but the sound is close enough to a chirp that I just call it that. It's cuter that way, imo

i find it interesting that in the hawks comic it's implied that. tohri assumed he was at least kind of friends with isa. he spends a significant amount of time with ryuuji and isa and he assumes he's invited to go stargazing and assumes he's 'part of the trio,' and while those last two things could be just him thinking he's super cool and the center of attention, i think it's kinda reasonable that he would just. want to be friendly with his coworkers. he goes out of his way to confront isa because he doesn't attend ryuuji's funeral, and i think that's more out of the feeling of betrayal on tohri's end than just the simple hatred of isa, because they all formed a relationship together. im willing to bet tohri just assumed they had a sailor-moon-and-mars-type relationship where they fought a lot but ultimately were friends. im not sure if all this is necessarily true, but i think it would give a lot of context to his hatred of isa in the future because like. hey! fuck you! we were friends but now i have no friends and im a loser and stuff and im taking out my anger on the fact that you no longer care about me! w-wait you actually don't even remember who i am and i didn't mean anything to you at all? we weren't ever friends? wh- FUCK Y

AHHHH IT IS ADORABLE THANK YOU :3

omg hi jellyfish...

btw my official favourite jellyfish is the Morbakka virulenta now

tophey

This is your signal to let yourself write the deranged, uncomfortable, disgusting fiction that you've been thinking about.

I love my job, but reblogging employment jelly for someone else I love.

I genuinely feel ashamed that all I can do is write words while more and more Arab people die - but momentum for fundraisers is one of very few things any of us can do at the moment

Please donate to the Sameer Project. They are doing amazing work on the ground. Try to do what you can. Sharing and donating as little as 5 dollars can culminate into a big difference. I have enough of a following to know that we can make a truly big difference if this didn’t simply go ignored bc people decided they’re bored now

people are really fucking clueless about generative ai huh? you should absolutely not be using it for any sort of fact checking no matter how convenient. it does not operate in a way that guarantees factual information. its goal is not to deliver you the truth but deliver something coherent based on a given data set which may or may not include factual information. both the idolization of ai and fearmongering of it seem lost on what it is actually capable of doing

Remember what generative "AI" does, kids: it GENERATES. That means it generates answers to questions based on whatever garbage has been fed into it. Not "goes and looks up the answer." Not "already studied and knows everything." It's just reaching into its sack of word salad and dumping a pile on your desk. Sure, maybe the words fit together to form sentences, but that doesn't make it correct.

a generative AI search result vs the exact article it is citing. the website it scrambled that information from also just happens to include info on winged roaches. gisborne cockroaches are completely wingless. even if it's pulling info straight from one reliable source, there is every chance it'll mash up that info into something false.

If you need a visual, here’s how poorly AI performed when asked to create citations for news articles. And that’s just for citations, imagine what it’s doing when you ask it more complex questions and tasks.

On the cornsnakes subredit someone there used generative AI to "answer" someone's question about what the raised black lump on their corn snake could be. Another person called them out and AI-user responded with "I can do what I want, and what's the harm anyways?"

I stepped in and explicitly detailed everything that the list got wrong, which was about 95% of it, to show why is was harmful. After an hour they deleted their comment plus they deleted most of their comment history.

AI is a lie generator. Don't use it.

do u think omegaverse acknowledges covid-19 and the generation of people who permanently lost their sense of smell like how are they all scenting each other now is the omegaverse economy in shambles

actually pheromone sensing works differently from normal olfaction, since humans in our world don’t have a functioning vomeronasal organ (VNO), we don’t have any data on how covid-19 would affect a functioning VNO in omegaverse AUs

Actually there is evidence that covid probably would affect the VNO and it stands to reason would accordingly impair its function. Briefly:

In conclusion the omegaverse economy IS in shambles.

OP this is very well-written but im still hung up on how you came onstage dressed as a clown only to tear off the costume and reveal yourself as a biologist
