IMPORTANT!!!!
TOMORROW, JUNE 3RD, IS THE BIRTHDAY OF PIERRE-ETIÉNNE/PETER-STEPHEN DU PONCEAU!!!!
DU PONCEAU WAS A FRENCH-AMERICAN LINGUIST AND LAWYER, AS WELL AS THE PRESIDENT OF THE AMERICAN PHILOSOPHICAL SOCIETY!!! HE WAS THE FIRST MAJOR WESTERN LINGUIST TO STUDY ASIAN AND INDIGENOUS LANGUAGES, AND EVEN COINED TWO MAJOR LINGUISTIC TERMS STILL USED TODAY!!! DU PONCEAU WAS ALSO HEAVILY SPECULATED TO HAVE BEEN BISEXUAL, AND TOMORROW IS BISEXUAL PRIDE DAY!!! EVERYONE TOLD HIM TO WRITE AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY, BUT HE DIDNT, BECAUSE HE THOUGHT HE WASNT WORTH REMEMBERING!!! LETS SHOW HIM THAT HE WAS!!!!
Reblog this to show pretty boy that he was so worth remembering.

Greetings folks! Did somebody say fungus bots? its time to spore some trouble i guess :) ok it wasnt funny i get it.. Anyways meet with new fungus based biohybrid bot..
before i start to explain how its works lets take a look at its backstory shall we?
The idea was almost age old actually, experimentation of soft body robotics and bio robotics and today its reshape as we see biohybrid robotics with the search for more sustainable, self-healing, and biodegradable materials. Traditional robots are often made from synthetic materials and metals, which can be rigid, non-biodegradable, and challenging to repair. The researchers at Cornell University sought to overcome these limitations by integrating biological elements into robotic systems.
The team turned to mycelium, the root-like structure of fungi, which has the unique ability to grow, self-repair, and biodegrade. Mycelium is also known for its strength and flexibility, making it an ideal candidate for use in soft robotics. By embedding mycelium within a network of sensors and actuators, the researchers created a biohybrid bot capable of sensing its environment and responding to stimuli, all while being environmentally friendly.
This fungus bot represents a significant step towards more sustainable robotics, demonstrating how living organisms can be harnessed to create innovative and eco-friendly technologies. The research also opens up possibilities for robots that can grow, adapt, and repair themselves in ways that conventional robots cannot, potentially revolutionizing fields such as environmental monitoring, agriculture, and even healthcare.
there is four actual elements that actually runs this bot besides of shell.
Fungus's Mycelium
Fungus's slug
UV light or UV array in the sun light
Electricity (it seperates as fungus related electrical pulse and electricity waves from censors)
firstly lets start with fungus mycelium: Mycelia are the underground vegetative part of mushrooms, and they have a number of advantages. They can grow in harsh conditions. They also have the ability to sense chemical and biological signals and respond to multiple inputs. so basically its neural system that transfers certain commands of activities between root and fungus itself
its slug is basically fungus's cell system or actual biohybrid organism it this case
once mycelium gets affected by UV lights it generates small electricity pulses to slug system and when slugs gets electrocuted by these pulses it acts like a muscle basically and it causes the slug to move or contract its muscles to activate.
and once you figure out how you gonna shape its muscle system and house them carefully you will have a "biohybrid robot" as their terms
the reason im taking this now is it reminded me "Fungus Baby Experiments" which is an inside name for series of projects that been continued for a while after corona until now.. Simply, the goal was to create or adapt an organism to thrive in different environments and make sure these environments livable by humans in the future by manipulating with artificial and external factors. Google it :)
anyways.. thats all from me this time..
until next time..

Peter Tork and Quentin Crisp, hosts of the 9th annual Beyond Vaudeville stage show in New York City on April 19, 1990.
“[The Ninth Annual Beyond Vaudeville Stage Show is] produced by the creators of Beyond Vaudeville, Cable-TV’s talk show from hell, and hosted by ex-Monkee Peter Tork and author Quentin Crisp (a match made in Limbo), the affair features ‘Female Elvis’ Dee Back, ‘nose-whistler’ nonpareil Jim Grosso and other offbeat acts B.V. fans have come to know and tolerate. Tickets are $3, with proceeds going to the Coalition for the Homeless.” - Daily News, April 18, 1990
“Peter Tork looked like a long shot to host a live Beyond Vaudeville Show in 1990 so as we got closer to the date and didn't hear back from him we went ahead and booked Quentin Crisp. When Peter came through we asked them if they would cohost together. Quentin, of course, readily agreed, as he did with pretty much everything. Peter wasn’t familiar with Quentin but agreed to cohost and the two ended up having a great time together. Asked 25 years later what he most remembered about that evening, Peter immediately replied ‘That woman who did the Underdog dance.’” - Beyond Vaudeville, Instagram, February 13, 2023 [x]

Pathaan 2 Confirmed: Shah Rukh Khan to Start Filming in End of 2024
It’s official: Pathaan 2 Confirmed. Shah Rukh Khan would play Pathaan again in a follow-up, according to a new report. Apparently, the movie will start shooting later this year. According to rumors, Aditya Chopra directly collaborated with his team on the script and is laying the groundwork for larger confrontations in Pathaan 2, which may lead to further espionage flicks under the YRF label.

The Widespread of AI generated p0rnograhpy
there has a been a site which has been posting ai generated pictures of idols either naked or having s3x , this is completely wrong and is very damaging to an idols reputation , not only that but some minor idols are also posted there , this site contains thousands of users who post almost 5 times a day
Jyp will be taking legal actions towards this and let's hope that it does work since these idols don't deserve it
these deepfakes are also on Twitter (X) , Tumblr, Wattpad and so many more i strongly encourage you to report it when you see any of them
