At rest, your lungs wish to deflate, and your ribcage expands outwards.
#better drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#yiling laozu#Happy Friday the 13th!#This is scientific fact btw!#Ventilation operates through a series of active and passive forces#The active forces being muscular contraction with inhalation and exhalation having their own set of muscles.#but the interesting part is the passive forces at work:#The lungs have a certain level of elasticity to them - meaning the more they expand the more the those elastic forces are functioning-#-to try and return the system to rest (exhalation passive forces). Your diaphragm is the main force - pushing against the lungs at rest.#Your ribcage on the other hand is under a state of being pulled outwards. It *wants* to be as open as possible.#These to contradicting forces create a constant push and pull which assists in the ebb and flow of air. Most significantly with exhalation.#Now that being said - the primary action of inhalation ventilation is through control centers in your brainstem.#If you lose connection to that due to trauma you're going to need ventilation assistance.#Small note: Respiration is the cellular event of chemical exchange in the alveoli. Ventilation is airflow and pressure.#They are both important but also very different things. Sadly used interchangeably.#My anatomy nerd brain is screaming over the inaccurate ribcage...but its...recognizable. I will get it right one day.#Okay nerd rant over (I cut out a lot of stuff about pressure gradients. They are cool. To me.)#This is a redraw of an mspaint doodle I made back in april. I yearn to make the Yiling Laozu eerie as he deserves#Tear that bitch (affectionate) apart!#Been playing around with hatching for a while and its amazing how many styles there are! Not sure I'll stick with this one (but it was fun)

Writing prompt: Danny failed science and Temperature affects the weather!!!
So when a cold front meets a warm front is can cause a storm, sometimes they can become extremely dangerous….
Danny has been really stressed lately with college applications and exams, plus the fact that his powers have been getting stronger lately. So one day he flys out to the middle of nowhere and lets off some steam in the form of letting his ice core go a little crazy. He does this every now and then to help him destress, today he used a little more power than usual but no big deal right?
Wrong. One week later the justice league is at his door and confronting him about a series of severe storms that have been created that they managed to track the energy source back to him.
Now they are trying to confront him about being a weather powered meta.
To be fair he was fighting the box ghost when they were learning about hot and cold fronts, how was he supposed to know they could form tornados?

This past weekend, US Airman Aaron Bushnell self immolated in a self-described “Extreme act of protest” to draw attention to the ongoing atrocities committed by the Israeli Defense Force each and every day. An entire generation of Americans are seeing American complicity in this genocide first hand. Multiple generations are. We are being traumatized and radicalized in a way that no previous generation has. We watch on in horror while the American government continues to unconditionally support Benjamin Netanyahu. We watch while the media, our supposedly free media downplays and distracts from the atrocity using words like “people found dead” to describe the slaughter of Palestinian women and children. We watch in horror as Palestinians post videos of the elderly sniped from rooftops. We watch as doctors amputate fully treatable limbs, often without anesthesia. We are scared. We are horrified. We feel powerless.
My government is not powerless. Washington is full of supposedly democratically elected officials. I pray that they use their positions of power and privilege to end the violence. To work with their peers for the betterment of humanity, to start to repair the soul of a nation stained by what is perceived by many to be unconditional support of a monstrous regime. Please, how many more need to die before we work to end the suffering. We should be rebuilding schools and hospitals, not adding more fuel to the fire by allowing Israel to buy bombs and other implements of war. Bombs that we all know will cause the deaths and dismemberments of children. Palestinian children. Human children. Collateral damage or intentional slaughter, no matter your personal belief, it doesn’t matter. Children are dying.
Aaron’s sacrifice, his desperate act of protest, is forever burned into my memory. Into the collective memory of a generation. His screams echo with but a tiny fraction of the suffering caused daily, on scales that we can barely comprehend. Please use his sacrifice as the fulcrum by which we move the world.

My name is Aaron Bushnell. I am an active duty member of the United States Air Force, and I will no longer be complicit in genocide. I am about to engage in an extreme act of protest, but compared to what people have been experiencing in Palestine at the hands of their colonizers, it’s not extreme at all. This is what our ruling class has decided will be normal. Free Palestine.

Also: heyyyyy, it's my 2 year AKversary!
I play a lot of games, but Arknights is not only the sole phone game I've stuck with, but probably the game I've put the most hours into these past two years.
The gameplay has helped me hone my tactical skills, and now I can clear most maps without guides using my faves. The stories frequently engross me, and I still have screenshots of my fave moments on my phone. Every character is full of life and hidden depths, with half the fun being imagining how my squads interact with each other and how they live together.
Truly, it's been a wonderful game to play these past two years. I look forward to many more!

assigning albums to danganronpa characters but i have only 3, open to suggestions i <3 music
junko enoshima - electra heart by marina
mondo oowada - wish you were here by pink floyd
nagito komaeda - ok computer by radiohead, from under the cork tree by fall out boy
#danganronpa#junko enoshima#mondo owada#mondo oowada#nagito komaeda#btw everyone listen to wish you were here pink floyd rn or else#and my criteria is that basically all/most of the songs match the characters vibe/story and such.#to go into depth. electra hearts goal of being satire and the alternating between multiple characters#and being about teenage agony and self destruction. along with just generally being more pop music with cynical themes#is very junko to me in that sense. also the general fashion and reputation of the album as a bitchy teenage girl angst album#for wish you were here. 'shine on you crazy diamond' is so ??? LIKE COME ON.#sooo many lyrics just match and the . aura of. maybe a sense of responsibility? that was forced onto you. it really makes me think of#his feelings to do with his feelings of responsibility for his brothers death and having to now take care of so many people#and his personal code of honor that puts a lot of pressure on him#for ok computer. just listen to lucky its like so on the nose like actually#'pull me out of the air crash pull me out of the lake i feel my luck could change' LIKE HELLOOOO#you can laugh.... a spineless laugh.... we hope that you choke . makes me think of him and also his murder suicide#and the way the album seems kind of surreal and abstract makes me think of his disconnect from reality and obsessive beliefs and behaviors#and the bizarre and unreal events......#hysterical and useless crushed like a bug in the ground........#fitter happier......#i wonder if id find any more. i need to listen to 8 trillion more albums#edit: just looked at the fandomwiki trivia for mondo. lmao oops. but its still right. SHGSAHGSAGHH#i didnt even know and i came to this conclusion 😭#UPDATE: added futct fob . reasoning is that the bitterness and vengefulness and mix of superiority and inferiority reminds me of#simulation era after he found out abt everyone after the . final dead room or whatever that was called#also just the . tbhhhhh to me he dresses exactly like the warped tour bands in 2005 or whatever. genuinely. so that fits as well#my post

His name is Aaron Boshnell
Holy shit, an active duty American soldier set himself on fire in front of the Israeli embassy in Washington DC. Before he set himself on fire he introduced himself as "an active duty member of the U.S. Airforce I will no longer be complicit in genocide." Then repeated "free Palestine" while he was on fire. He did it while wearing his duty uniform too. There is footage of the act. I don't know how I feel about posting images of a man's self-immolation but it's such an unprecedented action to be almost unbelievable without visual evidence. Even with the several self-immolations that occurred on American soil during the Vietnam and Iraq wars, I don't think I can point to one undertaken by an active duty soldier. I will instead link to the Twitter post where it was first made public under the "more" cut below. It goes without saying that the image is graphic.
