"Riddle me this, Batman. Would the city of gotham accept me if I began taking estrogen?"

*stroking my device screen with the tenderness of brushing the cheek of a lover returned from the war*

[jaguarguard]

I- okay but- but screens are solid? Cheeks are not? Last time I checked???

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

I love this website I can make the most normal possible post and still get replies from alternate realities. what are cheeks made out of in your world plasma?

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

the wifi came back on

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

what you've never patted your laptop affectionately after a reboot fixed the Issue? never hugged your phone in relief that the screen survived a fall uncracked? never held a tablet to your quivering bosom bc the fic was just that good? puh-lease

[pokeplazagamer]

I put my devices through a lot. Of course I give them pats every now and then. Especially my car. She is heaving every time i drive and she needs the encouragement.

[factual-fantasy]

I was planning to do a 14 day blackout when the movie hit theaters but uh.. whelp, a 26 day blackout cant be THAT bad. Right?😁Hahaha.... right-

So of course- this is to say, see ya'll later and be weary of spoilers my friends!! :}} 👋💞💞

[pokeplazagamer]

Have fun during your blackout and i wish you a very good.

[demilypyro]

there's no such thing as a famous tumblr user and anybody who acts like there is is selling something

[pokeplazagamer]

All the "famous" tumblr users are famous from somewhere else.

[demilypyro]

i really like your voice :3 you probably hear that a lot but i still wanted to say it—

I actually kinda never hear that so I appreciate it.

[demilypyro]

Does everyone just assume I already get complimented a lot

[demilypyro]

Sigh... I wish that were true....

[pokeplazagamer]

Girl, do you even realize whats happening rn?

[otiksimr]

Give me.

Animals to draw.

Yes I will allow your fantasy beasts.

Just no individual characters.

[otiksimr]

don’t worry what I’m going to do to them. They’ll be completely fine and safe. Don’t worry.

[pokeplazagamer]

i suggest one(1) dog.

I've been trying to get my PS3 pregnant for the past few weeks and it's finally looking good!!!!!

I've been trying to preserve my old PlayStation 3 (it has been overheating and dying and exploded a little bit once) data by transferring it into a new ps3 that is less likely to overheat and die, I've been at this for a good while and I had to get a lot of parts and such to get everything working and I've been doing surgery on a grape for the past few days, but it's finally looking like it's all going to work!! I'm very excited

[darkaviarymc]

Um. Excuse me. There's a LOT to unpack here, but what do you mean your ps3 exploded a little bit?

[i-am-a-fish]

it made sparks!

[pokeplazagamer]

This may sound a bit odd, but try putting it in your freezer.

Well i cant not reblog.

[mousidy]

some of you never let go of the binary you just say "amab" and "afab" instead of "man" and "woman"

[mousidy]

[mousidy]

if you've medically transitioned at all, including by taking HRT, you probably don't have a body that fits into the male/female sex binary, and slapping "amab" and "afab" over it isn't gonna change that

I can't answer whether we should call that intersex or a "nonbinary sex" or what, but I'm begging you people to understand that TRANSITION CHANGES YOUR SEX

[mousidy]

TRANSITION CHANGES YOUR SEX

[pokeplazagamer]

I sure hope it does.

[dragoncarrion]

Anytime i see a bunch of pride flags i have to restrain myself from saying "where mexico" bc i doubt anyone will know I'm referencing this

[tortol]

picture i got at pride last week; here mexico

[ellie-insertsurnamehere]

This is very dumb but hey

[yeahokayillreblogthat]

Yeah okay ill reblog that

[demilypyro]

this surly, melancholy state again... I must really be at my limit if I'm too tired to even mask. guess I'll take tonight off.

[pokeplazagamer]

Perhaps try leaving the mask off sometimes. Let other people deal with your complex emotions for once.

[azuremist]

Please please please please plEASE PLEASE PLEASE PL

[pokeplazagamer]

My interpretation is that Jax only bullies the girls because it isnt fun to bully the grandpa with dimentia and he seems to have some level of respect for Zooble (probably because they actually push back against it when he goes too far)

[demilypyro]

you're jealous because my dodge roll has more iframes than yours. you're jealous because it lets me stay inside the enemy's attack radius and keep attacking while you have to retreat to safety

[pokeplazagamer]

Yeah? And what of it. Perhaps you'd like to brag about your smaller hurtbox size next!!!

Rub it in, why dont you!!!

[uhmuhummmuhhh]

only good additions being made trust

All praise the Mysterious Obelisk.

NEW FISH JUST DROPPED

[cannibalcaprine-deactivated2024]

I KNOW that playing God is morally wrong, but holy HELL, it looks fun.

[ninjakittenarmy]

Why is it playing God? We aren’t violating any natural laws. God set the parameters of the universe to allow these things. There’s nothing wrong with it, there’s no hubris in learning more about how to manipulate the universe around us.

[cannibalcaprine-deactivated2024]

We made a whole-ass fish.

[ospreyonthemoon]

The reason this was accidental BTW is because they used paddlefish eggs as a negative control group for a breeding experiment on sturgeons because the scientists, quite naturally, assumed that they were SO unrelated it would be genetically impossible for them to mate. Like. I cannot stress enough to you how these creatures last related ancestors were

140 MILLION YEARS BACK.

If you don't know how far that is, that's basically the start of the cretaceous. Let me simplify that for you even further. Chimpanzees and humans seperated, what, 5 or 6 million years ago?

This is basically like if humans could hybridise with THESE THINGS.

This is the sort of thing that should be impossible. They used those eggs to be ABSOLUTELY 100% SURE NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN.

And then THEY GOT FISH OUT OF IT.

Like. You can quite clearly understand why they didn't think anything would happen. WE ARE MORE RELATED TO BLUE WHALES THAN THESE THINGS.

THE AMERICAN PADDLEFISH AND THE STURGEON ARE SO COMPLETELY UNRELATED THAT THIS IS NOT PLAYING GOD. IF ANYTHING THIS IS AN ACT OF GOD.

THE SCIENTISTS HAD NO BLAME IN THIS BECAUSE NOTHING LIKE THIS HAD EVER HAPPENED BEFORE

It sort of goes against the rules of genetics a bit.

[ospreyonthemoon]

Oh i forgot to add

THESE THINGS, FOR HYBRIDS, HAD A REALLY HIGH SURVIVAL RATING. LIKE 70% OF THEM SURVIVED.

To put that into perspective, getting a blue whale and a squirrel and trying to hybridise them is more sensible, and that wouldn't produce anything but getting you banned from science. Most animals that aren't plants can barely hybridise two degrees away from each other.

BUT THESE TWO ENTIRELY UNRELATED FISH create PERFECTLY HEALTHY HYBRIDS.

the scientists literally had to do the tests AGAIN just to be like "okay this is real right. This is actually like, not a fluke, this works right" and it worked again. They just Can!

[jackofacetrades]

So for those who don't know what the original fishes look like, this is an American Paddlefish:

And this is a Russian Sturgeon:

So honestly, saying the hybrid is "weird looking" is a bit fort de café when you see its parents. I think the sturddlefish looks cute.

[marlinspirkhall]

"these creatures last related ancestors were 140 million years back"

(glances at fish)

Yeah that's exactly what I thought you'd look like, you Mesozoic fuck

[thriceandonce]

#Holding a red squirrel in my left hand and a blue whale in my right desperately hoping to make a purple squale (via @dykepuffs)

[kedreeva]

placental mammals (eutheria) diverged from marsupials around 100 million years ago. whales and squirrels (rodents at least), being both placental animals, would have diverged at or after that time, meaning sturgeon and paddlefish still have 40 million years more separation.

before the sturddlefish, a purple squale would have seemed more likely- and since that's ridiculous and obviously no one would think that's possible except as a joke, that should speak to HOW impossible this situation seemed, and why they thought obviously this will be perfectly fine. If you took squirrel eggs (the gamete) and tried to use whale sperm to fertilize them, you could reasonably expect that to not work. That should be a good control. The eggs would definitely not actually be fertilized, and even if sperm somehow made it into the egg and some kind of development started, you would expect them to not make it to term and definitely not make a whole ass new animal that's perfectly fine actually.

And yet there is a purple squale in your fish tank, in fact there's like 100 of them and everyone is saying you played god but this was not what should have gone down, this was never the plan. This isn't you playing god, you think, this is god having a laugh at your expense.

[pokeplazagamer]

I propose we endorse "struddlefish" or "purple squail" as a term to define something that was a total accident because it never in a million years shouldve been possible in the first place yet still managed not only to happen but to be very stable process somehow despite everything telling you it should never have been possible.
