I give Scout a lot of shit but he dead ass got to hear he has three days to live and was like “How do I better myself so the girl I like doesn’t have to lower her standards?” And tbh king
Can we also take a moment to appreciate the fact Spy spent those three days along with Scout because Scout asked for help and Spy agreed to it? It’s confirmed Spy is his dad so Spy spent his last three days of living with his son
Not only with his son, but teaching his son to be a better man.
I had some other work to do this morning (Figuring out some algae stuff involving 1000 L mesocosm up a mountain) so mystery species has been sitting alone in the lab all morning…..
Made it up to the lab today to find this. It’s probably from the fridge defrosting and not the creepy “algae”.
June 13th Update.
According to a few colleagues it’s either a plant, an algae, or a fungi. So that’s been helpful.
After a day with some sunlight I think I might be seeing some chloroplasts.
It seems to like the nutrient solution I added yesterday though!
I for one welcome our new plant, algae, or fungi overlords.
I was about to say “in a sensible lab people wouldn’t waste time with this, they’d autoclave the bottles and move on” but on reflection I can’t think of a single bio lab I’ve been in that wouldn’t immediately go “ooh, mystery algae, that sounds like a fun challenge; let’s devote multiple hours to identifying it for no reason”.
I need updates tell me about the algae
The mystery algae/plant/fungi/alien is stuck in the university growth chamber. With everything going on I probably won’t get to check in on it until September, possibly not until 2021.
So by that time it will have developed what, writing?
God I hope so, then I can train it to write my thesis!
This entire post is the most on-brand biologist thing I have seen in my entire godforsaken life. The moment this pandemic is over these guys have another crisis ready for us.
Yoooooooooo not to bum y'all out, but a lot of stores are reopening rn so please don’t forget that the pandemic isn’t over, and gathering back into large groups as if it is will only skyrocket casualties, please continue limiting your social interactions
the Raymond hype is incredibly hilarious because people who know the incredibly huge (and even wholesome at times) discord for animal crossing know that Raymond has always been a special case for everything involving trading for him. in a particular case, he, out of 400+ villagers have a rule catered to him because of the chaos it wroughts to put him up for free
And you can get insta banned for failing even ONE of these steps
he’s for sale on eBay and apparently there’s rumors of faked/hacked Raymonds with inaccurate rooms that can brick your game going for $20, and even listed ones hitting an upwards of $1,000
what even gets me is the last listing here says “amiibo” when there isn’t an amiibo for him
things Raymond has also been on sale for and I’ve seen is:
>400 nook mile tickets. yes. 400. Sometimes 800.
>100 golden crowns (yes, the one that’s 1,000,000+ bells)
>150 MILLION bells, you can’t even carry that on your person. doing the math I’m pretty sure you have to go on and off someone’s island over 20 times
>40 pagodas
>and again, legitimate money for possibly hacked Raymonds
this one business “sexyman” cat has exposed the hubris of human greed in under 2 months and I am living to watch it down
