i think one of the best approaches to ai in classrooms debate is to get rid of bullshit work generative ai can do and just write assignments that can't be answered well w/ chatgpt but unfortunately quite a lot of school is built on bullshit work. also to be more forgiving generally

I searched far and wide hoping to quench my insatiable need to read, but none of the books in an archive of our own have satisfied me. In an effort to read more I traveled all around the world be it by land to visit the vast city of Wattpad, but I was not satisfied. I traveled by water to visit the islands of Nets, famous for their so called "Fanfictions" but I was not satisfied. I traveled by air to visit a place called Tumblr and began losing hope until I heard it, whispers of an author who takes requests and being on my last string I searched for them. I searched for clues on who it could be, only hearing the name Angel who likes Teacups, and vague as it may be I did not give up until the day I had found you, I cried in joy as I write this and hand you my request,

"Desmond but with fangs and claws like a cat, harem with maybe Haytham"

(Sorry for being long and unnecessary)

(Please don’t apologize, I enjoy getting asks and comments no matter what length they are)

Dear traveler, it appears that the rumors of my capabilities have been greatly exaggerated. I can only assume that it is due to the praises of my followers both here and in the archives of which I am also a weekly peddler of my wares. I am but a humble alchemist forever learning the ways of the legends and old ones. My alchemic priority will always be the wares I freely give to the archives and I am chained to my capricious mind which dictates what I shall synthesize to its full completion next.

What I can offer you, my dear traveler, is a small gift, synthesized from the ingredients I have that I believe you would enjoy.

And with that…

Let’s give Desmond fangs and claws like a goddamn cat.

.

Since this is meant to be a harem and I haven’t made any modern-day setup for a harem for a while now, we’re going full-on modern-day setting.

(not gonna lie, if you had requested cat ears as well, this would have been more like a kept pet kind of scenario)

Let’s say that Desmond lives on the Farm where it is common for people to have small fangs. Not that noticeable but certainly something that most humans do not have. When Desmond was born, they noticed his fangs were much longer than the rest, more cat-like, yet they weren’t worried about it. Maybe it was a quirk in their genes, who knows?

Then Desmond gets old enough to start crawling around.

He reached the sofa and… an urge takes over.

By the time his parents found him, he had been scratching the sofa with his suddenly sharp curved nails.

No.

Claws.

They had him checked out by the Farm’s doctor, of course, and they learn that the claws were retractable. With enough practice, Desmond learned how to bring out his claws at will.

Most of the time, he only showed his nails.

It has been drilled into his mind to hide his claws. To never show his fangs.

It was stifling. The claws gave him an advantage in training. Sometimes, he would lose himself and try to claw his own father.

He was told it was a dangerous weapon.

But Desmond simply saw it as a part of himself.

For it to be called a weapon…

It made Desmond feel like he was the one being called the weapon himself.

Or maybe it would be more accurate to use the word ‘itself’?

Did… did his father even see him as a person?

Years passed and his training continued. He grew older and, with age, comes more duties. More responsibilities.

The fear of the outside world has been drilled into his mind for so long. The Templars became background noise. He was told to fear humans in general.

They wouldn’t understand you.

They would fear you.

They will hurt you.

Desmond knew that.

All of his sparring partners, both the adults and the kids, would always have fear in their eyes whenever Desmond would use his hands during their spars. Even if he had clenched them into fists…

So he learned to use his legs more often yet the fear remained in their eyes.

They fear him.

And so… Desmond used their fear to take them down.

Sparring became boring after that.

No.

He hated sparring.

He hated the fear in the eyes of the people that were supposed to be on the same side as him.

That was when he appeared.

He was perhaps a year or two older than Desmond.

Bill whispered to him who he was.

An orphan born and raised by the Brotherhood, given the name of the legendary Master Assassin and mentor: Altaïr, the supposed best of the current children of the Brotherhood.

Not that they were still children… they were already teenagers yet the adults still liked to group them up as ‘children’.

He had an impressive blank expression that Desmond was quite jealous of. Bill always told him that he needed to work on his expressions.

They sparred and Desmond was caught off guard by how fast he was. He could see why Bill had brought him here to spar with Desmond.

He was faster than any of the adults Desmond had sparred with.

And ruthless with his strikes.

He aimed to take Desmond down as quickly as possible.

Without a hint of hesitation or fear in his eyes.

His mind seemed just as quick as his strikes, immediately realizing that Desmond primarily used his legs to attack.

So he kept closing the distance between them, not giving Desmond any time or distance for his kicks.

It was bound to happen.

He had been pushed into a corner.

A corner he didn’t even know existed until now.

Instincts and the thrill of finally having a sparring partner that didn’t look at him with fear in his eyes made his claws make an appearance before he knew what was happening.

Altaïr’s eyes widened for a moment before…

He slapped Desmond’s hand before it could scratch his face.

He jumped back, creating distance between them for the first time since he notice Desmond’s heavy reliance on his legs.

Desmond’s heart began to beat faster as he felt a coldness wrap around him when he saw Altaïr lower his head to stare at his claws.

The sting of his slap didn't even hurt. It was a quick move meant to stop Desmond. It was not meant to hurt him.

Yet... Desmond bit his bottom lip.

He didn’t want to see it.

He didn’t want to see those golden eyes turn fearful.

Altaïr raised his head and…

Desmond’s eyes widened as he saw the most beautiful smile he had ever seen in his entire life.

His own lips curved into a wide smile, showing his fangs.

Yet Altaïr’s smile didn’t falter.

And that was the day…

Desmond fell in love with Altaïr.

Unorganized Notes (and set up for the Harem):

The beautiful smile Altaïr gave Desmond is seen as creepy by pretty much everybody else. It’s more on the side of feral and unnerving.

Altaïr and Desmond grow close because Altaïr regularly visits. The excuse is to spar with Desmond but they usually just hang out afterwards and talk. Altaïr would bring Desmond books whenever he visits after Desmond admits how bored he was on the Farm.

Desmond didn’t have the heart to tell Altaïr that the books he kept giving were a bit hard to understand and he kept reading them anyway, even going as far as talking to another kid (Shaun) that was the smartest kid on the Farm to ask help for the words that he couldn’t understand.

When Altaïr learned about it, instead of giving Desmond easier books to read, he made Desmond promise that he’d ask him instead for help and Desmond agreed because it means Altaïr would get closer to see which part Desmond has a hard trouble getting and he likes Altaïr’s warmth.

When they became Assassins, Altaïr and Desmond were put on the same team together with Malik and Kadar. Mostly, Altaïr and Desmond are the ones on the field, with Malik acting as backup, distraction, or additional ‘backend’ support. Kadar is their tech guy.

Malik and Kadar came from the same orphanage as Altaïr and they’re not scared of Desmond’s claws and fangs because “Altaïr waxes poetry about you whenever he returns from visiting you… very bad poetry” “I think it’s sweet.” “It paints you less as a monster and more as a cat.” “A very beautiful cat.” “Malik… Kadar… shut up.”

You can add Malik and Kadar to the harem if you want. If they’re not, Malik is forever suffering from the fluff and Kadar is 100% AltDes shipper only until it’s clear that Altaïr is okay with sharing Desmond and then he became 100% on board with shipping everyone with Desmond… even his own brother. (“I stop trying to make him stop. Ignoring him is better for my health.”)

Ezio gets transferred into their team later (if you want angst, the Auditore execution still happens but it’s with guns now, if you don’t want angst, Ezio got transferred because Giovanni thinks it would be better if he learns how it’s like to have non-family team members). Regardless, Ezio and Altaïr get competitive.

Desmond and Ezio start out as friends and Ezio know Desmond and Altaïr have a thing going on. It doesn’t stop him from falling for Desmond but he doesn’t do anything about it because he knows Altaïr is Desmond’s most important person.

Desmond does feel some attraction to Ezio but he ignores it. It actually takes Altaïr out right stating that he knows Desmond is falling in love with Ezio for him to acknowledge it. Desmond promises that he’ll love Altaïr the most and Altaïr just goes “Okay. I’m fine with that.”

Of course, this confuses Desmond so Altaïr had to explain that he was fine if Desmond wants to be with Ezio too, as long as he remains Desmond’s number one. (“Like… you’re at first place and Ezio is the runner-up?” “… I’m not using your love for us to compete against Ezio.” “You sure…?” “As long as you love me the most, I’m fine with you loving other people.” “Oh.”)

Ezio’s a bit reluctant at the beginning but seeing Altaïr okay with it, he does start to pursue Desmond.

They do end up competing for Desmond’s affection at times and it does get very competitive. Malik has to suffer thru it as the referee because Desmond is useless during these times, simply too happy with all the attention.

One of their competitions ends up with them talking about how much they love feeling Desmond’s fangs on their skin. Malik suffers listening to the many ways Desmond has used his fangs to pleasure these two idiots just to make sure they don’t start throwing punches (or suddenly telling Desmond to use his fangs on them). Kadar has been roped into judging them with the criteria: use of words, how vivid the picture they make in their speech, passion, and overall structure of the speech. Desmond is too embarrassed to even function at that point.

Ratonhnhaké:ton would join their team the last and he’s a year or two younger than Desmond. He’s been trained by an old Assassin veteran named Achilles and his grandfather without any other kids so he was transferred to the so-called ‘misfit’ team after initiation.

Ezio tends to go all big brother on him which Ratonhnhaké:ton appreciates but, sometimes, he feels that Ezio’s actions could be interpreted as babying him.

Ratonhnhaké:ton knows that Desmond is with both Altaïr and Ezio and Kadar had made it perfectly clear that “you can fall in love with Desmond too!”, much to Malik’s continuous suffering and embarrassment.

Unlike Ezio’s which has a bit of angst sprinkled in the ‘I’m falling in love with him and I know I shouldn’t’ miniplot, Ratonhnhaké:ton knows it’s okay to fall in love with Desmond. He falls in love quite quickly because… it’s Desmond… and he tells Altaïr and Ezio first.

Altaïr just tells him that it’s Desmond’s choice if he would love him back. And… that he’ll always be the one that Desmond loves the most. Ezio just sighs and tells Ratonhnhaké:ton to not be discouraged by those words. If Desmond loves him back, they’d accept him as well.

Desmond does fall in love with Ratonhnhaké:ton as well.

And everyone’s happy… except Malik who now has to deal with four people in love and his brother living vicariously thru Desmond.

As for adding Haytham to the harem, we can go three different routes: (1) Haytham remains a Templar and he becomes sorta like their archnemesis and he’s that polite flirting type to Desmond (with maybe a bit of questionable touching), (2) Haytham remains a Templar but they captured him and try to ‘unconvert’ him from his Templar indoctrination (“This is a stupid idea” “Maybe but it’s not a bad idea” “No, it is. The fact that I’m just letting you do this is a testament to how far I’ve fallen.” “Relax, Malik. It’ll be fine”) and they notice he’s attracted to Desmond and… stuff happens???, and (3) Haytham is an Assassin in this one and is part of a different team and much much older than them because he is Ratonhnhaké:ton’s dad so… sugar daddy tiimmmeeeee!

ok but dick saying he served by heroes isnt us propaganda. they actually did save people and the jews, just for ur knowledge.

i really don't think in words much, i get shape/feeling clusters and have to work backward. so while i can observe/map stuff, and am good at editing, i am not good at writing itself. writing feels untrue.. i can only write decently about things i don't care about much, bc then my reward system works - i sense I've written something accurate and get excited to capture the next aspect. Whereas when writing about anything close to me, there is no sense of accuracy and therefore no reward. words are so removed from my inner life that anything i write feels like performance/imitation. which tbh would be fine if i could just find some satisfaction/play in it but i can't, i just get lost, because if I'm not going to sound like myself how do i choose who to sound like and where do i go from there

I'm butting up against such fundamental barriers lately (not just in writing but in everything) that I'm like damn i need to try hypnosis.. bc wtf else is there to do. i either need rewiring or to be happy where I'm at

Though coherent entities like waves can be ‘synthesized’ together – they interfere, modulate, multiply or negate each other as they interact – decohered entities like billiard balls cannot: they fall prey to the combination problem, and no matter how you put them together, you still just have a bunch of parts, not a new synthesized whole.

We are in the first Information Age Iconoclasm. A cultural reckoning over representation, authorship, and the role of images in society. A slow, ongoing struggle. Not unlike the Byzantine Iconoclasm of the 8th and 9th centuries, which lasted nearly a century.

The Intersection of Innovation: Oligonucleotide Synthesis and Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography

In the rapidly evolving fields of biotechnology and molecular biology, two processes stand out for their groundbreaking applications: oligonucleotide synthesis and fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC). These techniques are integral to scientific research, enabling advances in genetics, diagnostics, and therapeutic development. This article explores the significance of oligonucleotide synthesis and FPLC, detailing their processes, applications, and impact on modern science.

The Essence of Oligonucleotide Synthesis

Oligonucleotide synthesisinvolves the chemical creation of short sequences of nucleotides, the building blocks of DNA and RNA. These synthetic sequences are essential tools in genetic research, diagnostics, and therapeutic applications. The ability to synthesize precise nucleotide sequences allows scientists to explore gene function, develop genetic tests, and create novel treatments for diseases.

The synthesis process typically employs phosphoramidite chemistry, where nucleotides are added one at a time to a growing chain. This step-by-step addition ensures high fidelity and accuracy in the resulting oligonucleotide. Modern synthesizers automate this process, making it possible to produce oligonucleotides efficiently and with high purity.

Applications of Oligonucleotide Synthesis

The applications of oligonucleotide synthesis are vast and transformative. In research, synthetic oligonucleotides are used as primers in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify specific DNA sequences. This technique is fundamental in genetic research, allowing for the detailed study of genes and genetic variations.

In diagnostics, oligonucleotide probes are employed in techniques like fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and microarrays to detect genetic mutations and pathogens. These applications are crucial in identifying genetic disorders, infectious diseases, and even cancer.

Therapeutically, synthetic oligonucleotides are used in antisense therapy and RNA interference (RNAi) to modulate gene expression. These therapies hold promise for treating a range of diseases, including genetic disorders, viral infections, and cancers.

The Fundamentals of Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography

Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography (FPLC) is a powerful technique for the separation and purification of proteins. FPLC leverages liquid chromatography to separate proteins based on their size, charge, hydrophobicity, and affinity for specific ligands. This technique is essential in both research and industrial applications where pure proteins are required.

An FPLC system consists of high-performance pumps, detectors, and columns. The sample is injected into a column filled with a stationary phase. As the mobile phase (usually a buffer) flows through, proteins interact with the stationary phase and elute at different times. This separation allows for the isolation and analysis of individual proteins.

Applications of Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography

The Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography is widely used in various scientific and industrial fields. In the pharmaceutical industry, FPLC is critical for the production of biologics, including monoclonal antibodies and insulin. These biologics require high purity and precision, which FPLC can deliver.

In academic research, FPLC is used to purify proteins for structural and functional studies. Understanding protein structure and function is essential for elucidating biological processes and developing new drugs. Environmental science also benefits from FPLC in studying proteins involved in biodegradation and pollutant processing.

Integrating Oligonucleotide Synthesis and FPLC

The integration of oligonucleotide synthesis and fast protein liquid chromatographyexemplifies the synergy in modern biotechnology. For instance, synthesized oligonucleotides can be used to clone and express proteins, which are then purified using FPLC. This combination accelerates the pace of research and development, enabling more rapid discovery and application of new biotechnologies.

Advancements and Future Directions

Advancements in oligonucleotide synthesis and fast protein liquid chromatography continue to push the boundaries of what is possible in biotechnology. Improved synthesis techniques are enabling longer and more complex oligonucleotides with higher accuracy. Similarly, advancements in FPLC technology, such as higher resolution columns and more sensitive detectors, are enhancing protein purification efficiency and purity.

The future of these technologies looks promising, with potential applications expanding into new areas such as personalized medicine, where tailored oligonucleotides and purified proteins can be used to develop individualized treatments.

Conclusion

The techniques of oligonucleotide synthesis and fast protein liquid chromatography are pivotal to the advancement of biotechnology and molecular biology. They enable the detailed study and manipulation of genetic and protein materials, driving innovations in research, diagnostics, and therapeutics.

'Don't steal people's shit'

What's so hard to understand about this?

Why does it matter who's saying it, or how they're saying it? Is the point suddenly invalid because YOU don't like the tone or the person? Are you an emotionally-stunted tween?

Even if you're not the one doing it, but are still taking what was stolen, what makes you think you're morally in the clear, especially when using it to make money yourself or garner 'clout'? Would you have the same outlook on anything else?

Next time a fucking Twitch streamer is playing somebody else's videos for their audiences, not transforming, not reacting, just outright leaving the goddamn room, and profiting off of it, you don't get to bitch about it. You're doing the same fucking thing, but apparently only care when it's happening to your field of work, and when your potential earnings are at stake.
