scientists in the 1990s, putting a Get More Purple gene attached to a harmless plant virus into an already purple petunia: please get more purple

the petunia, sensing an apparent honest to god Get More Purple Disease, using the previously undiscovered RNAi antiviral ability to shut down all other purple genes along with it just in case: you put VIRUS in petunia? you infect her with the More Purple?? oh! oh! her children shall bloom white! jail for mother, jail for mother for One Thousand Years!!!!

You are a genetic researcher who has come across a universal truth. The DNA in all living creatures are attempts to build a single design. Viruses and phages have been stopping this process intentionally, resulting in different species. You now know what that design is and can complete it.

Geologist Finds Rare Formation Inside Rock That Looks Exactly Like Cookie Monster on Sesame Street

Geologists have found a rare formation inside a rock that looks just like the Cookie Monster character from Sesame Street.

I can't believe this 🥺 so cute!

Tiktok discourse is so funny bc of the sheer confidence these people have in their opinions. On twitter and tumblr you just type your dumb takes but on tiktok you show the entire world your real face as you say the words “posing with a monster drink is appropriating alt culture”

I can’t believe I read this post with my own fucking eyes

[neat-deadandlive-things]

Well my week has been exciting so far.

[neat-deadandlive-things]

I had some other work to do this morning (Figuring out some algae stuff involving 1000 L mesocosm up a mountain) so mystery species has been sitting alone in the lab all morning…..

[neat-deadandlive-things]

Made it up to the lab today to find this. It’s probably from the fridge defrosting and not the creepy “algae”.

[neat-deadandlive-things]

June 13th Update.

According to a few colleagues it’s either a plant, an algae, or a fungi. So that’s been helpful.

After a day with some sunlight I think I might be seeing some chloroplasts.

It seems to like the nutrient solution I added yesterday though!

[lynati]

I for one welcome our new plant, algae, or fungi overlords.

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

I was about to say “in a sensible lab people wouldn’t waste time with this, they’d autoclave the bottles and move on” but on reflection I can’t think of a single bio lab I’ve been in that wouldn’t immediately go “ooh, mystery algae, that sounds like a fun challenge; let’s devote multiple hours to identifying it for no reason”.

[kit6]

I need updates tell me about the algae

[neat-deadandlive-things]

The mystery algae/plant/fungi/alien is stuck in the university growth chamber. With everything going on I probably won’t get to check in on it until September, possibly not until 2021.

[howieduet]

So by that time it will have developed what, writing?

[neat-deadandlive-things]

God I hope so, then I can train it to write my thesis!

[alexaloraetheris]

This entire post is the most on-brand biologist thing I have seen in my entire godforsaken life. The moment this pandemic is over these guys have another crisis ready for us.

[lucky-182]

Can we get an update cause this is crazy

[neat-deadandlive-things]

Update: Due to the global pandemic, the algae has been left alone in a weird hidden growth chamber for a year and will likely stay there for another year. Enjoy that information!
