Help Us Do Real Science!

@talesfromtreatment and I have an ask for our fellow corn snake keepers and breeders.

We're gathering information on corn snake size by age and we need community scientists like you to provide the largest possible body of data.

@talesfromtreatment will be using the information gathered to build an accurate, statistics-supported corn snake growth and feeding guide based on ACTUAL data from ACTUAL corn snake keepers like you! I'm just the numbers gal.

Here's what we need:

Your snake's age (in years)

Your snake's weight (in grams)

A top-down photo of your snake's entire body with an inch or centimeter reference. (see photo below)

All of this information entered in our online form, linked below or copy/pasta: https://forms.gle/QtAwmiFa6fpBewFs8

https://forms.gle/QtAwmiFa6fpBewFs8

We'd love to get data on older snakes, younger snakes, fatter snakes, skinnier snakes. If you've got a corn snake we want their age, weight, and a photo of them with a measuring device.

Photos don't need to be fancy, just give us a top-down view of your snake and a ruler/tape measure/yardstick on a flat surface.

The survey is anonymous and we won't share your photos with anyone nor use them for any purpose beyond collecting morphometric data for this specific study.

Please please please help us collect as much data as possible. Share with your reptile-keeping friends, signal boost, submit your metrics, and stay tuned for updates!

Amir if he was a Pokemon trainer, or scientist/researcher.

But when I was doodling this, This could be a close idea/thought of Amir before the infection/techrot. Anyways plain background undercut.

The fact that Nintendo will let TOTK die (just like ACNH) when they could've released a DLC: it could've contained memories between BOTW and TOTK explaining the reconstruction plans, and it could've given us missions to reconstruct parts of Hyrule...

It will never sit right with me.

i am begging the other leftists on my fucking dash to stop reblogging anti-voting stuff until the election is over. there are so many doomers on this website who do not have the critical thinking skills to fucking use their brains and tons of them will be genuinely swayed by what they see online.

for the love of god, queue it for after november 5th. queue all your criticism for then. unleash the fucking beast after the election is over. but it is so fucking irresponsible to be reblogging that shit now.

The Loneliest Hundred Days

At the 100-day mark—a milestone presidents usually meet with parades of approval—Donald Trump stands almost alone. His approval rating has dropped to 42%, the lowest of any modern president at this point in office, eclipsing even post-crisis presidencies.

Where others found "honeymoon" periods, Trump finds hollowed fields.

Republican loyalty, once ironclad, is softening: only 67% of GOP voters "strongly approve" of his performance, down sharply from the euphoric highs of Inauguration Day. Fractures show most in healthcare, immigration, and economic policies—areas once promised to be the bedrock of his "winning."

Beyond party lines, the American public cites a cocktail of missteps: a failed healthcare repeal, volatile foreign policy decisions, and an unprecedented breach of presidential decorum via Twitter storms.

Political historians warn that early-term impressions often become permanent records. Without a pivot—or a crisis to reset the narrative—Trump risks becoming the first president in decades to lose the country before he ever truly had it.

"The loneliest kind of power," someone once wrote, "is the kind no one believes in."

[neomedievalist]

very good paragraph basically describing neomedievalism in its most trite and least inspired form. brief reductive definition for probably a significant amt of you who dont know what it is, neomedievalism is a fictional medieval setting inspired by other fictional medieval settings rather than the actual middle ages

i like neomedievalism (In the highly specific instances that define it for ME) which is why . its my url. but like the term was kind of invented as like. Well if it was invented today by a twitter user they'd call it fantasyslop. And like admittedly the reason the term needs to exist is bc of derivative shit like this.

the entire reason a medieval setting can be safe and cozy for some ppl is basically bc the fantasy genre has certain tropes and beats that are expected and unsurprising for people. it's escapism and wish fulfillment to the maximum. it reminds me of one of the introductions to neomedievalism that i read that i tend to dislike for being overly negative but i feel is relevant from the paper neomedievalism, hyperrealism, and simulation by brent and kevin moberly:

this is really relevant for this book because it tries to be escapism, "turn-your-brain-off" type of fiction but you can't help but wonder hey how the fuck does this function? i thought this was supposed to be a medieval society? like they said in the article:

this is really the "staging its own death" that they were talking about

Wowza, self promo time!!

I finally finished this DaForge fic! After way too much time procrastinating, I present you this:

Rating: Teens and up

Category: M/M

Fandom: Star Trek: The Next Generation

Relationship: Data/Geordi LaForge

Tags: Holodecks & Holosuites (Star Trek), POV Geordi LaForge, Angst with a Happy Ending, Pining, Canon Sherlock Holmes roleplay, Many references to Sherlock Holmes, author ships JohnLock, Misunderstandings, Data Has Android Emotions (Star Trek), Data glows in Geordi's eyes, sappy at times (okay most times), Closets, Getting Together, Friends to Lovers, Mild Hurt/Comfort

Summary: Data and Geordi are best friends, however, Data has started acting weirdly. Geordi isn't sure how to react, especially because it is all somehow related to Sherlock Holmes.

Thank you so so much if you're gonna give this fic a try, I really did have a lot of fun writing this<3333
