News:

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

Yep, only do that when it's something incredibly stupid or nonsensical AND I feel like reading it.

Excellent. I never knew about the complexity thing but I suppose it makes sense, started with amoebas or something after all. Never shared a discussion board with so many science heads before, kinda cool learning some of this shit.

Cheers

The really interesting part is when you get into bacterial evolutionary biology. The least derived forms, the archea, and bacteria in general, have super fast reproduction (division by binary fission) AND they can transfer genes in between each other (horizontal gene transfer).

So, the evolutionary tree of bacteria is like this giant spiderweb/mess. Who knows which genes originated where? Or how they even originated in the first place? I mean, how the hell did the process for building proteins originate? Or DNA for that matter?

This shit facinates me.

Eventually, critical mass is reached. Our key word: Resolve. Evangelize with compassion and determination. And realize that there will be few in the beginning. We are hand picking our successors. They are the future of Discordianism. Let us guide our future with intelligence.

The whole idea of cells just totally fucked me up TBH. I did higher biology at school (but left half way through) and every time I looked at any kind of cell I was thinking "fuck me that's a tiny little factory I'm looking at"

Totally blows me away. And that's before you even get to the notion that there's a tiny little controller in there running the whole nation of little factories in perfect sync. Brain usually locks up right around the double helix.

I'm up to my arse in Brexit Numpties, but I want more.  Target-rich environments are the new sexy.

My animal phys professor gave me a really cool way to think about a cell in three dimentions, enlarging it to the size of a college building. Maybe I'll post it sometime.

TBH unless it's factory sized I can't imagine a cell any other way.

I'm the same with silicon chips - basically they are huge fucking things the size of a city with lots of little people passing bits of paper around, then Raquel Welsh turns on a huge shrinking ray and "zzap!" you got your chip/cell

Okay, size of a large building then. The cell membrain a cinderblock wall, except it porus and made of a gooey substance. There are proteins and carbohydrates in the wall, on the inside and outside that are like long thick ropes and blocks of proteins the size of fat albert. Then you got the mitochondria, which are the size of semis. Ribosomes are the size of basket balls. Charged Ions are about the size of tic tacs. and water molecules are grains of sand.

I find that puts it in perspective for me alot.

Let it  be known that I am an egotistical blowheart with a lot of wind.

I warned you guys when I introduced myself here.

The good news is I like you guys.

Look, if you want to know what you're doing wrong, I'll tell you...in a PM or publicly.

If not, well, you wouldn't be the first person here to back the Titanic up for another run at the iceberg.

Please do tell. 

cuz this is old.





I did.  Bad move on my part.

TGRR,
Figured he was wasting his time.  This guy is fucking HOPELESS.

He was so bad, he's an archetype here.

Somehow, I think he'd be pleased by that.
