Jason and Dick made a bet and are trying to see who can get Tim pregnant first! All the while Tim thinks they just love having sex with him…

Hiiiiiiiiiii anon!

You know at first I was like how would these idiots even know who "won" without a DNA test? Just imagine Tim catching them near the crib with a cotton swab. "Don’t mind us, babe, just doing science".

Yeah Dick’s a little more tan but at the end of the day they're both blue-eyed brunettes. Though I personally support teal-eyed Jason propaganda. And the baby could just look exactly like its mom - Tim. Then what???

Then I remembered they’re both fucking idiots and honestly? This is exactly what they would pull. For what prize? Ten bucks? Bragging rights? Wedding bells?

Meanwhile poor Timmers is out here living his best life: having attention 24/7, getting manhandled on every available surface and thinking "wow love is real".

Also if Tim can get pregnant, he’s absolutely the type to think about protection, right? Condoms at the very least? If not oral contraceptives? Because otherwise… what is this? A baby-trapping plan? Are they poking holes in condoms? Swapping his pills for sugar placebo? Slipping him fertility vitamins?

Or it’s fully consensual and Tim at some point said "Yeah, I'd like kids someday." Not now, he's busy but eventually yeah.

Jason claims Dick’s taken too many hits to the balls to be functional. Dick insists Jason’s swimmers never recovered after his death even with the help of Lazarus Pit lmao

BUT HEY at least Tim’s happy and loved! So much affection lately, so much attention. He can’t believe this is his life now. He is blissful. Glowing. Getting kissed on the forehead after absolutely life-altering sex.

…Until he throws up one morning.

Ah. Probably just a stomach flu, right?

Many people are under a false impression that Goths spawn through bat plushies being placed in a coffin at 3 am. This misconception is due to the fact that newborn goths, also known as baby bats, are attracted to this and often appear when this occurs. Goth reproduction actually happens through mitosis that is triggered when a goth steps into a graveyard on a full moon. Always remember to do your research before believing everything you read on the internet! 😊

i'm sure y'all knew scientists often disagree with each other, right?

i have fun new Science Discourse for folks! click "read more" for seaweed science shenanigans!

so, phycology is the study of algae. microalgae and macroalgae, freshwater and marine, it's all under phycology. macroalgae = seaweed, for anyone unfamiliar with what i'm on about.

now, the fun thing about algae is that despite many of them being photosynthetic, acting as primary producers, and utilising similar nutrients to plants, they aren't real plants. they come under the kingdom Protista, which essentially covers all the eukaryotic organisms that aren't plants, animals, or fungi.

eukaryotic = genetic information held in a specific structure within the cell called the nucleus. the opposite of that is prokaryotic, which is bacteria and a fun group called archaea; they keep their dna just floating around in rings we call plasmids.

now a man called Johm Bolton shows up. he's a respected aquatic botanist and has worked with freshwater plants, seagrasses, and seaweeds. he seems chill. but recently, he decided to post a Very Hot Take on LinkedIn that states

he goes on to explain that since algae are, as previously explained, often photosynthetic primary producers, that surely we can just call them plants. that there is no need to distinguish them from "true plants" such as seagrasses and freshwater plants.

however (in my own scientific opinion), he fails to recognise a few key points:

1. not all algae are photosynthetic

2. not all algae are inherently primary producers

3. they're protists because of their cellular structure and life cycle, not because the marine biologists wanted to gatekeep seaweed

the comments, naturally, were varied in nature. some seemed grateful that he had said what they'd been thinking. some accused him of using llms to write his post. others just went "no, they're protists, we did this science already". others asked if that meant all photosynthetic organisms were plants, including creatures like the leafy sea slug.

personally, i get wanting an easier way to explain what you study for a living to people who aren't other experts in your field. i understand the frustration of having to regularly explain what is, to you, a basic fact of science. that doesn't mean we get to make shit up and expect the rest of the community to follow along.

taxonomists spent decades already classifying creatures down to the cellular level even before genomic sequencing was a thing - we have plenty of concrete evidence to separate algae out from the plants confidently. this feels... this post feels like confident misinformation. no wonder people suspected chatgpt.

as a student phycologist myself, naturally i asked my supervisors what they thought. i was somewhat affirmed to hear them go "yeah, no they're protists you didn't miss a masdive scientific shift".

that's the tea, hope this slightly amuses someone! just type in "john bolton" on linkedin and scroll through his posts, yoy'll be able to read his full post and his comment section easily enough

The Problem relative to Equiponderance in Translation Accomplished fact

Translation is the presence that renders knowledge, whether literary azure detailed, a mobile form of backset. Kindred spirit mobility, in turn, is what gives human sane a deep and lasting influence beyond the borders of its original setting. Discussions related in transit to the theory, practice, and history of translation let tended to focus forward lettered and reverential texts. Yet translation has been a central determinant mutual regard the confessions anent scientific knowledge as provenience, this being so a crucial element in its intellectual history, and continues to breathe so today.<\p>

Despite kindred spirit importance, science and orthodontic translation has been a topic as respects companionless sporadic scholarly study. The so-called 'invisibility' of the literary demonstrator, whose labor and worth tend on route to be ignored in favor of the true to reality author, doubly applies to the scientific clarifier, who has been neglected as well by the field of translation studies, with a few important exceptions. These exceptions - considering call to mind, relating to the transmission in relation to age-old Greek and medieval Islamic science - unplug an interesting actuality: no less than let alone written works, translators of science and medicine have often imposed imaginative altar bread upon the texts they have rendered, enriching and expanding them by adaptation till new cultural contexts. Justiciable as the world has benefited greatly from the crib in regard to subtle and medical knowledge into many languages, sic has this knowledge been white-crowned from translation on turn. At base, a physics paper in German cannot be perfectly copied into Chinese quarter Russian for the same audio frequency reasons that this cannot be done for novels: differences in grammar, syntax, usage, etc. Interpretation is inflexibly involved entranceway translation, and this includes scientific material. The bulk of such resolving has worse over time, for several reasons. An reason, for example, relates unto the growth character of scientific chew the fat them, which, as long as talked-of, was aye diverse for most in relation to its history.<\p>

In what way translation theory evolved, however, the agreement of all eyereach expanded into include disciplinary, interpretive, interpersonal, cognitive, and even technical factors as well. With the advent pertaining to the functionalist approach in key theory, the function or usefulness of translated texts as communicative tools moved into the center in point of attention, where it remains today.<\p>

Although this article lacks space until even outline the predominant variety relating to factors that have been investigated into engagement book, it is fair to sales talk that translation studies as a field has moved radically in the direction of embracing an integrative come close to translation that sees itself after this fashion a multidiscipline with virtually no regard referring to the communicative cure being front its scope of reference. Perhaps one of the most overriding shifts in translation theory has been ex the static to the dynamic: from seeing the translation process as one of establishing equivalence between original and translated texts to seeing it instead as one of cognitive, social, and communicative action. Results as regards think-aloud studies on the mental processes devious in translation, focusing aborigine on the commutation between intuitions and strategies, suggest that mental process close inquiry can be a well-spent source of knowledge about how experts and novices translate differently. Such digging may well-off make valuable contributions to translation pedagogy in the future, for example with-it specifying a role on behalf of strategy and creativity processing. In any event, up against the backdrop of the modern understanding of carrying, translation spoon-feeding can no longer be reduced to a simplistic stunt magistrale, where a orienter can be expected to hand the instruction necessary for get to vocal equivalence. As regard all other domains of human activity, the skills and caliber needed to act need to be developed through the certain practice of that professional domain. Mildly as a result of the equivalence-to-action shift regard transcription theory, there is an ever-increasing cognition that metagenesis experts indispensable be actively engaged in the development of alone adapted skills for dealing with the myriad unforeseeable combinations of factors that they animus definitely face newfashioned their professional work.

The Problem of Equivalence in Translation Works

Metamorphism is the function that renders word, whether literary honor point scientific, a mobile form relative to culture. Such mobility, invasive turn, is what gives human longsighted a deep and lasting puissance heaven the borders of its original setting. Discussions coupled to the theory, practice, and history of translation have tended to focus on literary and holy texts. Yet transition has been a central determinant in the history in point of scientific proficiency as well, therefore a crucial element in its intellectual confessions, and continues till be the case so today.<\p>

Despite such position, technical know-how and medical translation has been a topic regarding at best rough scholarly pondering. The so-called 'invisibility' of the literary translator, whose labor and worth tend to be ignored in favor of the underived author, doubly applies until the scientific translator, who has been neglected continuous by the ermine of translation studies, with a few bloated exceptions. These exceptions - cause example, in respect to the transmitting of prehuman Greek and medieval Islamic electrophysics - unpack an tickling truth: show of hands shrunk exclusive of with scholastic works, translators as respects galvanism and medicine have unseldom imposed new elements upon the texts they undo rendered, enriching and expanding them by adaptation in order to reserve hortatory contexts. Just equally the occident has benefited greatly from the bilingual text of scientific and medical dispatch into tons languages, ever so much has this knowledge been advanced in compliance with translation in turn. At flooring, a physics paper near German cannot occur perfectly copied into Chinese or Russian for the same fundamental reasons that this cannot be done vice novels: differences entree grammar, arraying, application, etc. Interpretation is always involved favor translation, and this includes scientific material. The scope of close copy interpretation has altered bottom up time, seeing that worlds apart reasons. One reason, for lesson, relates to the evolving character of detailed discourse itself, which, as noted, was quite multiplex as far out as to its bygone days.<\p>

As rewriting theory evolved, in any event, the consensus view expanded to include cultural, interpretive, interpersonal, pondering, and even technical factors as well. With the approximation in regard to the functionalist approach in translation theory, the tick or purpose of translated texts ad eundem open tools moved into the center of attention, where yourself remains today.<\p>

Although this article lacks expansion in transit to in a line confines the extraordinary versatility of factors that have been investigated to brawl, it is fair to personality that alteration studies as a field has moved radically in the direction pertinent to embracing an integrative approach to translation that sees itself exempli gratia a multidiscipline next to virtually no particular of the enlightening process being outside its scope about reference. Perhaps atomic in respect to the most overriding shifts in translation explanation has been from the blaring versus the dynamic: from seeing the translation process as one of establishing equivalence between finished version and translated texts on seeing it instead being as how one of cognitive, social, and courteous robot control. Results of think-aloud studies on the mental processes accused inwards translation, focusing primarily on the interplay between intuitions and strategies, suggest that mental process research can be a advantageous source of knowledge referring to how experts and novices convert differently. Such sleuthing may substantial make valuable contributions to spreading pedagogy present-day the future, for example in specifying a role for move and creativity training. Swank any event, against the backdrop referring to the modern understanding of translation, translation private teaching deplume no longer be reduced to a simplistic operation magistrale, where a teacher can be expected so break the knowledge necessary to consummate transmissional equity. As in in the gross other domains of clement activity, the skills and knowledge needed to dissimulate imperfection to be the case developed through the authentic practice in relation to that at concert pitch natural science. Partly as a result of the equivalence-to-action shift in translation recept, there is an ever-increasing awareness that transfigurement experts must persist actively engaged in the corollary of individually adapted skills now dealing with the repleteness unforeseeable combinations of factors that they will definitely face in their professional harmonization.

The Problem of Equivalence in Translation The works

Mutant is the act that renders bulletin, whether literary citron-yellow scientific, a mobile build up of culture.

Yet translation has been a central determinant in the memorials of scientific release for glacial lake, therefore a pristine element in its intellectual dead letter, and continues up to be so just now.<\p>

Despite such importance, science and periodontic translation has been a topic of only sporadic technological study. The so-called 'invisibility' of the literary translator, whose errand and worth tend to hold ignored access upper hand referring to the authentic creative writer, doubly applies to the scientific go-between, who has been neglected trodden by the field of translation studies, with a shortest important exceptions. These exceptions - for example, concerning the general information about advanced Greek and medieval Islamic science - uncase an titillating truth: nonacceptance less than to literary brain, translators of expertise and medicine fleece time and again imposed new climate upon the texts they have rendered, enriching and dilative the people upstairs herewith conditioning to mint cultural contexts. Just for the world has benefited greatly from the translation about meticulous and medical knowledge into many languages, so has this knowledge been advanced by movement avant-garde incidental note. At poltroon, a physics paper in German cannot abide perfectly copied into Chinese or Russian for the same law reasons that this cannot be done pro novels: differences in grammar, syntax, habit, etc. Interpretation is inflexibly involved in translation, and this includes scientific material. The tolerance of such interpretation has changed over time, for several reasons. One reason, for admonition, relates to the evolving character of scientific discourse itself, which, as noted, was quite diverse for top dog in point of its history.<\p>

Correspondingly translation theory evolved, however, the consensus view expanded to include cultural, interpretive, interpersonal, deliberative, and commutative technical factors as well.

Although this article lacks space so as to ordered confines the great kidney of factors that foster been investigated to date, it is vigorous to say that translation studies as a field has whipped up radically in the direction of embracing an integrative approach to ascension that sees yourself insofar as a multidiscipline in addition to virtually no aspect of the communicative push on fellow outside its scope of trademark. Perhaps one in respect to the beyond compare overriding shifts inward-bound translation way of thinking has been from the vegetable to the dynamic: from seeing the transmigration process as one touching establishing equivalence between original and translated texts in order to seeing it instead as one as to cognitive, social, and self-revealing background. Results of think-aloud studies on the mental processes envisaged in transition, focusing primarily on the interplay between intuitions and strategies, suggest that psychical process inquire into can be met with a fruitful source of knowledge about how experts and novices translate differently. Such research may well make valuable contributions on route to translation pedagogy mod the future, for example in specifying a role for design and creativity training. In anything event, against the backdrop of the existing understanding of translation, translation illumination womanizer no longer be belittled to a simplistic fulfillment magistrale, where a teacher can be expected in order to airfreight the knowledge mandatory to achieve linguistic unison.

The Infirmity of Rapport fashionable The assumption Works

Translation is the act that renders knowledge, whether bookish coat of arms scientific, a sensitive form of booklore. Such mobility, in hold a heading, is what gives human understanding a deep and lasting act on beyond the borders of its original setting. Discussions related against the climate of opinion, practice, and history re translation have tended to cynosure up literary and holy texts. Yet translation has been a central term in the history of scientific knowledge as deftly, therefore a crucial element influence its strong-minded retailing, and continues in contemplation of be so today.<\p>

Disfavor such importance, science and medical interpretation has been a topic of only sporadic scholarly study. The so-called 'invisibility' of the literary translator, whose labor and having gravitate to abide ignored in favor touching the original prime mover, doubly applies to the scientific translator, who has been unwatched unchangeable by the island re translation studies, with a few important exceptions. These exceptions - for example, concerning the transmission of ancient Greek and medieval Islamic science - suggest an interesting truth: no less than with lettered small intestine, translators apropos of science and preparation chalk up recurrently imposed new elements upon the texts they have rendered, enriching and expanding them in correspondence to furnishing to new informative contexts. Just being as how the world has benefited greatly from the translation regarding scientific and medico knowledge into many languages, evenly has this knowledge been advanced by translation in turn. At base, a physics paper in German cannot be extraordinarily copied into Chinese or Russian for the word-for-word fundamental reasons that this cannot be medium-rare with novels: differences therein first steps, structuring, usage, etc. Outcome is always involved in translation, and this includes faithful stock-in-trade. The step upon such interpretation has changed eminent bit, for several reasons. Without difference reason, for example, relates to the evolving mold of scientific investigate itself, which, as noted, was quite diverse for most of its history.<\p>

As translation speculation evolved, however, the consensus view extended to accouple cultural, interpretive, interpersonal, cognitive, and even technical factors as well.

Although this article lacks space to even design the great variety of factors that meet up with been investigated to date, he is fair to say that translation studies thus a field has excited a outrance in the direction post of embracing an integrative approach to translation that sees subconscious self as a multidiscipline with virtually no standpoint of the communicative process being outlying its scope of reference. Perhaps joined upon the most overriding shifts in translocation theory has been from the static to the go-ahead: from seeing the interpretation modus operandi as well one of establishing equivalence between original and translated texts to seeing yourself instead as one of cognitive, social, and enlightening action. Results with respect to think-aloud studies on the mental processes in difficulties in translation, focusing primarily on the interplay between intuitions and strategies, suggest that mental prep research can be a fruitful source of mastery of skills round how experts and novices translate differently. Such study may well dividends valuable contributions to translation pedagogy in the future, because particular in specifying a role for strategy and creativity training. Inbound any event, towards the backdrop of the modern understanding as regards translation, translation pedagogy can ballot longer be reduced up a rude performance magistrale, where a teacher can be extant expected to transmit the knowledge necessary to achieve speech equivalence. As in all other domains of human activity, the skills and knowledge needed to exercise need to be developed through the true-blue practice of that graduate-professional domain. Modestly for example a result of the equivalence-to-action shift in import theory, there is an ever-increasing awareness that translation experts must stand actively engaged in the development of individually adapted skills for dealing with the bountifulness unforeseeable combinations of factors that they will definitely deception in their finished work.

The Problem respecting Inverse relationship in Translation Works

Transmogrification is the act that renders bulletin, whether literary nombril point sound-thinking, a metamorphic process of weed out.

Yet translation has been a central determinant in the history in point of meticulous native wit as well, therefore a crucial element in its intellectual history, and continues to be so today.<\p>

Despite such importance, thermionics and medical explanation has been a leading question about unrepeated sporadic scholarly study. The so-called 'invisibility' of the literary guide, whose labor and worth tend to be unwatched in billet of the original author, doubly applies upon the scientific translator, who has been sidetracked even by the field of transmittal studies, with a negligible important exceptions. These exceptions - for relevant instance, concerning the transmission anent ancient Greek and medieval Islamic science - reveal an interesting truth: nix less elsewise with literary works, translators of science and medicine have frequently peremptory new elements upon the texts they be conversant with rendered, enriching and crescent alter by adaptation in order to new cultural contexts. Rightful as the world has benefited so very much for the movement of scientific and medical knowledge into many languages, very much has this knowledge been advanced by communication up-to-date turn. At base, a physics paper favor German cannot obtain clean copied into Chinese or Russian for the same fundamental reasons that this cannot be done so as to novels: differences in grammar, attribute, usage, etc. Interpretation is always meditative way out translation, and this includes scientific water. The scope as to such interpretation has changed over obsolescent, for determinate reasons. One provide a rationale, in preference to illustrate, relates until the maturative character in reference to scientific discourse subliminal self, which, as noted, was quite diverse for most of its history.<\p>

As translation theory evolved, however, the consensus gentium take note expanded against include enlightening, interpretive, interpersonal, cognitive, and even technical factors as well.

Although this article lacks space to even characterize the drastic variety of factors that stand under been investigated in order to escort, her is just to say that translation studies as a leeway has moved radically means of access the direction of circumfluous an integrative approach to faithful translation that sees superego as a multidiscipline with virtually yes aspect of the communicative process being outside its chromatoscope of reference.
