i made new blog and maed poast!
still unhappy ish with the layout but whatever
vivalenore asked: Thankyou so much for clarifying. I will admit wholeheartedly that my blog was basically a rant, and not something I would confidently show a scientist. I had no idea so many people would read it, but I suppose that from now on, regardless of who reads it, I should always check my facts before posting. Again, I appreciate how you were constructive in your remarks instead of attacking me. It means a...
finally sorta got my other blog layout kinda good...
actually it kinda looks bad
i dont know why i am so terrible at this

deadpresidents:
Do you know what would be great? It would be great if Tumblr used just a little bit of that money that they’ve had invested in them to insert even a mediocre search engine in the website. It should not be difficult to find something that was previously written that I happened not to tag. The content of my posts is more important to me than a tag that might trend with others...

achievementswhore* responded to my question/post
I find it weird how we’re okay with killing somebody; something that is looked down upon IRL. But we’re not okay with sex in games…
sorry buddy, but you have quite missed the point
it isn’t that i am saying OH NOES SEX IN MY VIOLENCE? HORRIBLE! SEX IS SO DIRTY
rather, what i AM saying is that this is kind of a weird perpetuation of (and...

i think that bulletstorm, as a game embodies a lot of the problems i have with “gamer culture” pretty well
not only is it completely over the top violence (their selling point) but you get bonus points for skill shots and interestingly destroying enemies
the problem is that some of these “bonus points” are weird sexual jokes
you get a multiplier called a “gang...

LAMARCK?
(i hope i’ve thoroughly annoyed a certain evolution and developmental biologist who chastises people for both using this example for lamarckian evolution and for picking on lamarck)

this has been ‘words from a near-graduation anthropology/archaeology major and paleobotanist in training’.
wanna hug this nerd
thebrowngoblet responded to my post
i will get back to this later after a) i can talk to my adviser and get some great articles, and b) i’m not furiously trying to write papers/study for midterms.
re: this post
i’m about to get anthrOWNED (do you like that i just made it up) soon
also i suspect perfect empire has some things to say regarding digestion of food
IMMA JUST STICK TO TALKING ABOUT EVOLUTION OF INSECTS OKAY...

dont worry
after that post
i am gonna go eat some dang pasta with “meat” sauce
yeahhhhhhhhhh vegetarian bolognese for lunch
vivalenore asked: Hey, I saw you reblogged my post on our ancestors eating meat. I appreciate the constructive criticism, but would you be so kind as to correct some of my facts? I didn't use a wide array of sources, so that may be why some things weren't exactly 100%. Thanks!
"If our ancestors didn't eat meat, they wouldn't...
sheisthehuntress:
This is a counterargument someone gave me once. Since I haven’t written a blog in a while, and the rage inside has been dwelling, I felt the need to clarify this statement.
Before I get to our ancestors as a whole, let’s take a look at the composition of the human body.
First of all, yes, humans have canine teeth. Technically. Our “canine teeth”, however, are very different...

On Libya and the Price of Gas
politicalprof:
If there’s one media meme that needs to die amidst the Libyan revolution, it’s “unrest in Libya is making the price of your gas go up.” Your desire to fill your tank for $5 or $10 less than you now have to pay does not justify several hundred million people across the Middle East living in oppression and cruelty.
The only people who have a right to be worried about the increase...

And I was like “Whuuuut?”
The woman basically zapped me for three hours and told me that I couldn’t eat certain foods and need to take a shit ton of supplements, and I have to wear a card close to my body for the next week. It was weird as shit, and I love my mom but I do not even.
I did get an awesome VHS of what my blood looks like under a microscope though.

Deputy AG for Indiana fired after suggesting live ammunition be used to clear Wisconsin protesters.
IF NOTHING ELSE IS LEARNED FROM THE TRAGEDIES IN EGYPT, LIBYA, AND ETC IT IS THIS ONE
there are many ways to handle governmental protests
