Let’s make a rare dragon
Alright, In the game flight rising, I randomly bred a rare dragon:
Lace Freckle Glowtail has two dragons in the history of Flight rising.
And that got me to thinking. What is the statistically rarest gened dragon?
This will be in multiple parts due to the length. Most common to least
We start the list with PRIMARY:
“divine duty to carry out” oh no she fucking ain’t, were taking our obelisk back home and getting her some tea and cookies, welcome to the surface girl, I love you. You ain’t gotta do shit you just got here.
Her divine duty is to be LOVED AND CUDDLED! *slams fists on table*
AND a race one since the most affected regions will be Africa, Asia and Oceania
as a friend pointed out, this headline makes it sound like supply will be dwindling. supply is fine. people will be *priced out*.
this is fucking MURDER.
insulin has been mass produced (from animal extracts) since -1923-. slow acting insulin has existed since the ‘50s, and ‘human’ genetically engineered insulin (derived from E. coli bacteria) has existed since 1982.
insulin treatment for diabetes is not some new or ‘unproven’ treatment. according to beyondtype1, “Humalog rapid-acting insulin came on to the market with a list price of $21 a vial in 1997.” adjusting for inflation, a vial these days should cost about $34 at most. instead, it costs over $300. there is NO reason for it to be steadily gaining in price to the point that diabetics are unable to afford their lifesaving medication, other than the sheer inhuman greed of pharmaceutical manufacturers.
let me reiterate: life without insulin (for Type 1 diabetics in particular) is a slow and painful death sentence. the ability to treat diabetes is a relatively modern phenomenon that has allowed countless people to live full, healthy lives. we should be expanding full covereage and access to insulin to diabetics the world over, and it should be FREE.
Have y’all heard about Open Insulin Foundation?
“ We’re a team of biohackers with a variety of backgrounds, and skills, and relationships to insulin and diabetes from many cities and countries around the world, including Oakland, California; Baltimore, Maryland; Paraiba, Brazil; Dakar, Senegal; Yaounde, Cameroon; and Puerto Rico. We’re working to develop the first practical, small-scale, community-centered model for insulin production to make insulin accessible to all. We envision a world in which communities in need have local sources of safe, affordable, high-quality insulin, and where people living with diabetes and their communities can own and govern the organizations that produce the medicine they depend on to survive.
What We Do
We are creating an open-source (freely available) model for insulin production that centers on sustainable, small-scale manufacturing and open-source alternatives to production. We are developing protocols to produce short-acting (lispro) and long-acting (glargine) insulin, working on developing open-hardware equivalents to traditional production equipment, are researching sustainable regulation pathways to bring our insulin to the public, and are building capacities for local, small-scale manufacturing.
How Do I Participate?
Our work would not be possible without the support of volunteers, interns, and community advisors. We welcome people of all backgrounds from all over the world to bring their enthusiasm, time, connections, and experiences, both in life and in work. Our volunteers promote us on social media, build equipment, run experiments, write reports and blog posts, facilitate meetings, connect with other organizations and groups, meet with experts in the field, run virtual events, and contribute in designing tools, resources, and methods of all sorts.
Potential Partners
We welcome collaboration with other groups that share our mission―community labs, academic institutions, patient advocacy groups, and NGOs.
Donate
Your donation will help us get closer to our goal. With a healthy financial situation, we can pay for lab supplies, acquire lab equipment, recruit scientists, and pay for consultation fees for regulation and manufacturing experts.”

Uhhhh..... heads up Amazon device users, I guess????
Heres how to turn it off btw:
1. Open your devices Alexa app
2. Go to settings
3. Select "Account Settings"
4. Select "Amazon Sidewalk"
5. Turn it off
If you own an Alexa, Echo, or any other Amazon device, you can fix all of the problems with it by smashing it with a hammer and burning the remains
If there was a way to run SUPER MEGA AD BLOCKER on this website I fucking would
“Please oh please open up your computer to a porn virus! If you don’t you’re evil!”
Freeloader Comin’ through!
We didn’t start this war internet users have with ads - We might have moaned about banner ads, but it was only when they started making noises when we might be listening to music or a podcast or whatever, causing two sound sorces at once, that we started trying to block ads universally rather than just a specific type of ad (pop ups).
And since then ads have gotten worse - Actual malware rather than merely breaking one of the fundamental sins of web design - though shalt not autoplay anything with sound. And the more aggressive a website is with ‘please turn off adblock’ the less I trust it to bother to vet ads and advertisers to make sure they’re not installing malware.
Not to mention that the idea that avoiding ads is “freeloading” is hilariously backward. Advertisement is a transaction between the platform and the advertiser, the user has no obligation to provide the views/clicks the platform has promised. Using an adblocker isn’t freeloading in the same way that leaving the room to get a snack during a commercial break isn’t cheating the tv network.
Ok y’all, I work as a web developer and I’m here to tell you that you are 100% right and that it’s shit. SO I’m going to tell you how to get around websites that block you from using their website if you’re using an adblocker.
Every website uses a language called JavaScript; long story short it’s a website language that allows developers to do the crazy shit you see on websites. Now the easiest thing to do is to disable JavaScript to stop them from knowing you have an adblocker:
Oh no! I’m blocked from viewing the website. It would be a terrible shame if I were able to right click and select the “inspect” feature
Click the three dots in the top right and open the “Settings” Menu
And then scrolled down to “Debugger” and checked the “Disable Javascript Option”
And then just refreshed the page

fuckin hate those ppl obsessed with making garfield creepy & evil & edgy. he’s a fat little orange cat that likes lasaggnar what’s wrong with u. he’s a little fucking kitty cat
its this simple. he’s:
fat
cute
NOT evil or cursed. i hate u
Been meaning to say this, but why would you hate someone who simply wants to enjoy themselves? If I like Garfield a little creepy, that’s ok as long as I tag, isn't it? In fact I used to hate Garfield with a burning passion, and look down at people who found enjoyment out of a franchise that's been milked to hell and back. I'm not saying Gorefield solely helped me be more open minded towards people liking different things but it's helping me realize people can like what they like. I still struggle but I'm trying, thanks to things like Gorefield and people who like My Little Pony, I’m becoming a better person (slowly, things like this take time). Hell I even used to be that “Anime Isn’t an Art Form” person but things like MHA, Mob Psycho, and Hunter X Hunter kicked my ass into shape.
I see a lot of pride posts like talking about how all identities are valid, and they’ll list everything under the rainbow….but….never polyamory? Like, I love being told I’m valid for being bi, for being nonbinary, but hardly any pride posts mentions polyamory, I wanna know that part of me is valid too.
I feel the same way about a lot of ace stuff, tbh. If I have to hear another Uber driver tell me “You just haven’t found the right person yet.” I’m going to flip my shit. I just want to feel like I’m ok to be. I’m not hurting people. You aren’t hurting people. When’s the time both of us get rep besides Steven universe. And I feel like Flourite wasn’t even that good a rep as she wasn’t shown to be individuals in a relationship, but ONLY viewed as a collective. We never learned who she was. Just that she was an identity. Still table scraps are better than starvation, huh?!
Te Hiku Media gathered huge swathes of Māori language data. Corporates are now trying to get the rights to it
“In March 2018, Peter-Lucas Jones and the ten other staff at Te Hiku Media, a small non-profit radio station nestled just below New Zealand’s most northern tip, were in disbelief. In ten days, thanks to a competition it had started, Māori speakers across New Zealand had recorded over 300 hours of annotated audio in their mother tongue. It was enough data to build language tech for te reo Māori, the Māori language – including automatic speech recognition and speech-to-text.
The small staff of Māori language broadcasters and one engineer were about to become pioneers in Indigenous speech recognition technology. But building the tools was only half the battle. Te Hiku soon found itself fending off corporate entities trying to develop their own indigenous data sets and resisting detrimental western approaches to data sharing. Guarding their data became the priority because the only people truly interested in revitalising the Māori language were the Māori people, themselves.”
“‘They suppressed our languages and physically beat it out of our grandparents,’ Jones says. ‘And now they want to sell our language back to us as a service.’”
…
“It would mean entrusting data scientists with no connection to the language to develop the very tools that will shape the future of the language. And worst of all, it would mean that Māori would miss out on the economic opportunities created using the language that belongs to them, much like they didn’t see the economic benefits of the land that belonged to them.”

“free Palestine” and “don’t use what’s happening to Palestinians as an excuse to spread anti-Semitism” can and should co-exist
spreading hate to jewish people as a response to the actions of the israeli government isn’t woke, it just makes you anti-semitic. you can be critical of the israeli government and not be anti-semitic
As a Jewish person who is anti-Israel I agree with this message.
I decided to create something that I wish I had when I first got diagnosed with autism - so here’s my comic for ASDComicTakeover! You can find out more about the project here!

I don’t interact with dogs much, which means I find their signals and body language kind of inscrutable. I dogsat one for an extended weekend a couple years ago and he whined at me constantly–I tried playing with him, but he got bored immediately. I tried taking him outside, thinking he needed to go to the bathroom, but he’d just sit there at the end of the leash and look at me and whine. We took a couple walks a day, and when we got back inside, he’d stare at me and whine. All day long. I was so confused. To this day I still don’t know what that dog wanted from me.
Well as someone who has a dog with separation anxiety (their mother’s dog) I believe he wanted you to bring his family back. Dude sounded just homesick.
Please do your research! There is so much misinformation out there and a lot of lies.
Everyone should know the truth so please try to know as much as you can so you can spread awareness and help!

My first time drawing a Wiggle (or a banjo) it’s just a sketch, but dang she looks weird without the boa. I meant for her to be singing Leatherwing Bat as stress relief.
