Something about a universal solution to problems by chewing off a friend's finger

Redraw of a frame from “Help!” (1965). I watched this movie two days ago and my concept of absolute cinema was turned upside down and brought to its knees. I recommend it to everyone, it feels like my brains were put in a meat grinder, 12/10 experience.

"the longest day" is fucking hilarious. the a plot is hiccup and toothless going absolutely through it against a dragon mother ship and her fighter jets while the b plot is the rest of the gang being so mindfuckingly sleep-deprived they couldn't even wash dragons three times their size and said dragons throwing a coup by locking the gang up in a hole. like?

MLPH - Melanophilin

The protein encoded by this gene is involved in melanosome transport and serves as link between melanosome-bound RAB27A and the motor protein MYO5A. Mutations here cause "standard" dilution.

Ball python

Chicken

lavender

five-gray

Inheritance: recessive to wild type, interaction unknown.

lavender, five-gray

Japanese quail

lavender

Inheritance: recessive.

wild type and lavender. image source

Canary

opal/mogno

onyx

Inheritance: recessive to the wild type, intermediate with each other.

opal, onyx, opal and onyx variations (mogno proved to be the same mutation as opal)

Mouse

leaden

Inheritance: recessive.

Rabbit

dilute

Inheritance: recessive.

Dog

dilute (three different mutations)

Inheritance: recessive.

Domestic ferret

silver

Inheritance: intermediate.

Light silver, dark silver. I couldn't find trustworthy illustrations for these colors, however i tried to choose pictures according to the descriptions in paper identifying the mutation: "the homozygotes for the mutant type are almost completely white, and the heterozygotes have a weakened color and white spots in various parts of the skin".

American mink

silverblue (two mutations)

Inheritance: recessive.

Domestic cat

There are many things people expect from one called 'God of Blood'. Always, the first thought is the blood of war, the blood of violence, the blood of the weak shed for the goals of the strong. Ares doesn't think of the blood of battle at all. When he thinks of blood, he envisions the many tied knots of blood bonds and bonds forged in the blood of battle. Blood sons and blood daughters, blood brothers and battle sisters, blood oaths and blood vengeance - he watches over them all and keeps close each one of these bonds.

One cannot begrudge his displeasure then when he realises he cannot tell Leto's offspring apart just by looking at them.

It was easier when it was just Artemis. Dark hair curled about her shoulders, a fierce mien whenever Father summons her to the mountain, a scattering of bones and blood shed whenever she was disturbed; the eldest child of Leto was a wild thing, sharp toothed with sharper claws always at the ready. There's whispers of her being a twin, of her other half being made to crawl on their belly as penance for their sin of god-slaying but Ares pays it little mind. What twins look alike among their number? Even dog litters are born distinct with all their unique markings inlaid in their fur. Artemis' twin too would be much more than their sister's mirror image.

Pouring over his list now, he wishes anything about Phoebus Apollo was that simple.

Mirror image did not begin to describe it. The twins were the same height, the same build, had the same colour and texture hair, ate the same raw food and drank the same amount of nectar. There was no difference in how they dressed, no difference in the company they kept, no variance in the weapons they used. There are some days Ares still cannot believe Phoebus will grow into a man and not some nymph with the way his ears have that slender point. He watches them now, sitting together beneath a shady palm and stringing their bows in an uncanny unison and curses because he still cannot tell them apart. What use is his skill in knowing blood when they both have the same damn blood running through their veins? What bond is there to sense when they are tied so tightly together, Ares can scarcely tell brother from sister?

He sighs. Unadorned and completely alone, the only way to know who is who is to speak to them. He'll have to find more ways to tell them apart from a distance. Surely they cannot stay this similar all the rest of their immortal lives.

Introducing my first baby, Lazarus! Here he is being a sun (aka light bulb) worshiper!

He's a normal ball python, and surprise! This post is just an excuse to show you all the frog my wife just drew:

I told her Tumblr would love him, am I right?
