oh my gosh why are there two of them now 😰
im so serious about this but if youre autistic and especially if youre chronically ill creative labour cannot be your only way to relax. working on a creative project is still working. take time to do nothing. its good for you i promise.

It's hilarious to me how Colossal Biosciences wants to be movie-version John Hammond but are 100% book-version John Hammond. In the Jurassic Park novel, it's very clear: John Hammond is a con artist who gives people an illusion, not the truth. He knew from the beginning that what he was making weren't dinosaurs, but he didn't care because he had a story to sell. He wasn't just "filling in gaps" with the frog dna, his scientists were basically making things up from whole cloth and he had no pretence about it- but he also knew what the public wanted to believe.
Case in point: https://time.com/7274542/colossal-dire-wolf/
These are not dire wolves. These are GMO gray wolves. Dire wolves aren't even in the same genus as gray wolves, and we know this from genetics.
What Colossal is doing is scamming the public. They want you to believe that they can pull off miracles. They can't. It's the flea circus where everything is mechanised, but because you want to believe, you "see" the fleas. They might be good at genetic modification and they might be good at hyping themselves up, but they haven't de-extincted the dire wolf. They didn't activate mammoth genes in a mouse. They are lying to you and they're going to keep doing it. Don't believe the hype.
I love entomologist humor. There is this famous butterfly, the one species everyone knows, the regal and instantly recognizable Monarch butterfly
and back in the day a very similar species of butterfly was discovered and thought to have evolved to mimic the Monarch (we now know this isn’t quite the case)
But because this smaller butterfly seemed to be impersonating a Monarch, they named it the “Viceroy” in a joke that is criminally underrated and makes me chuckle every time I see one of these little dudes. Clearly he’s doing important work as an appointed governor ruling in place of the sovereign

play Beautiful World by Hikaru Utada~ they probably would go on a nice walk at the ends of the city just to really see earth life, if they had the time. | sketch wip
I love your OCs and I think you should draw/write them more
