Unveiling the Underwater Symphony: The Marvels of Coral Reef Symbiosis🐠

Hey fellow nature lovers! Today, I'm thrilled to share with you one of the most extraordinary marvels of the natural world that never fails to fill me with wonder: the intricate dance of symbiosis in coral reefs.

Imagine plunging beneath the surface of the ocean, into a vibrant underwater world teeming with life. Here, nestled among the coral colonies, exists a delicate balance of cooperation and mutual benefit that has evolved over millions of years (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration [NOAA], 2024; NOAA, n.d.)

At the heart of this underwater paradise are the corals themselves, tiny organisms that build intricate calcium carbonate skeletons, forming the backbone of the reef ecosystem (Lippsett, 2018). But what truly sets coral reefs apart is their mutualistic relationship with algae known as zooxanthellae (NOAA, n.d.). You can catch a glimpse of these symbiotic organisms in the image below:

These microscopic algae live safely within the tissues of the coral, harnessing the power of sunlight to photosynthesize and produce energy (NOAA, n.d.). In return, they provide the coral with essential nutrients like glucose, helping to fuel their growth and survival (NOAA, n.d.). It's a partnership so vital that without it, coral reefs as we know them would cease to exist (NOAA, n.d.).

But the wonders of symbiosis don't stop there. Coral reefs are also home to a dazzling array of marine life, from colourful fish and graceful sea turtles to elusive lobsters and enchanting seahorses (NOAA, 2024). Each species plays a unique role in the reef ecosystem, contributing to its resilience and diversity.

What's truly remarkable about coral reefs is their ability to adapt and thrive in some of the most challenging environments on Earth (Harvey et al., 2018). From the crystal-clear waters of the tropics to the murky depths of the deep sea, corals have evolved a remarkable array of shapes, sizes, and colours to ✨ thrive and survive ✨ (Harvey et al., 2018).

But perhaps the most exciting aspect of coral reef interpretation lies in its potential to inspire action and conservation (NOAA, 2024). As we continue to explore and understand these underwater wonders, we uncover not only the secrets of the ocean but also the urgent need to protect and preserve it for future generations (NOAA, 2024).

Imagine a future where every person, young and old, feels a deep connection to the ocean and understands the vital role that coral reefs play in sustaining life on Earth. A future where conservation efforts are driven not only by scientific research but also by a shared sense of awe and wonder at the beauty and complexity of the natural world. This embodies the "bright future of interpretation" Beck et al. (2018, p. 457) envisioned – a future where every discovery, every moment of awe, fuels our passion for understanding and protecting the wonders of the natural world.

So, the next time you find yourself daydreaming about the ocean, take a moment to marvel at the intricate dance of symbiosis unfolding beneath the waves. And remember, the wonders of nature are all around us, just waiting to be discovered and appreciated! Until next time :)

Behold Human Doctor Feelings featuring my Human take on Mikey

[khlegacynexus]

Beat you too it @charcoaldustonmyfingers except my Klunk is a Yokai

1-D/Leo belongs to @evenmoreofadisaster

I raise you: What if Rise Mikey had a cat tho

Just a little doodle of a potential pet for the brothers! I named him Slice because Klunk is usually orange like a pizza slice, and Raph’s pet turtle in ‘12 is named Spike or Slash. They found him eating pizza in a dumpster.

Like all friendly orange cats, he shall be loyal as a dog and dumb as a rock! Mayhem probably begrudgingly tolerates him. His paws are big cause he’ll grow to be be a big fella someday.

Partially inspired by my housemates’ cats, who are silly and big respectively.

Head cannons about a friend's OC

I do not control the muses. When they offer me ideas, I can only hope I'll have the MP to write those ideas down, no matter what they may be. In this case, it was about my friend's Warrior of Light, Shio Shinju. You can find her over on @the-littlest-kojin. Now, despite looking like a Raen, she was raised by the Kojin of the Blue, and is one, far as I'm concerned. It did get me to thinking, how would other NPC's respond and react to learning that about Shio? Nice as it would be that they would all be lovely, supportive, and accepting, they are not perfect. As anyone who feels their body does not reflect who they are will tell you, there can be a wide range of reactions from people. Thus I present, a list. Please note, there are some names on this list that do not pop up until later expansions, including names that don't pop up until the latest expansion. The names for Endwalker I'll try to put put under the Read More. So consider yourself warned.

Minfillia- doesn't understand, "tries", messes up a lot

Thancred- doesn't understand, still tries, never messes up

Y'shtola- doesn't understand, asks a lot of questions that end up bordering on, to being, actively rude. One time, a Thancred that was already having a bad day snapped and started flipping Y'shtola's questions back on her. She quickly got the idea and the questions have significantly lessened. 

Urianger- went on a near poetic spree about how it's the soul that matters, not the flesh. Never messes up. 

Lyse- tries to understand, doesn't fully get it, but tries anyway. Sometimes messes up. "confused but she got the spirit" 

Papalymo- outright refuses. This earns him an earful from Lyse (and Thancred in private) every time. 

At this point Thancred is recognizing and standing with Shio on her identity just as much out of spite as anything. Part of it is still trying to respect Shio, but part of it is out of spite now.

Alphinaud- doesn't understand, trying to, but questions are worse than Y'shtola's somehow

Alisaie- kind of gets it, is trying since it makes Shio happy. Actually does her own research and chastises her brother. 

Tataru- very confused, but does try. She also messes up, but her apologies feel more genuine than Minfillia's. Incorporates little turtles somewhere in each outfit made. 

Krile- understands and accepts immediately, never messes up. Something something echo. 

G'raha- may be the worst. Says he understands, says he cares, but clearly has not, can not, and will not internalize it. His words and his actions blatantly at odds.

Estinien- kind of gets it? He assumes it's something akin to how powerful dragoons are basically part dragon. Having seen Shio's prowess in water, he assumes all Kojin are this amazing aquatic warrior race. This was all internal, so Shio may not be aware that was his logic, but he did seem to get it, and didn't mess up. When he was visiting the Far East, he did stop in Tamamizu, and upon talking with the Kojin there, came to understand better. He apologizes next time he sees Shio, saying only "for not fully understanding you". 

During Stormblood, Lyse and Alisaie comment on how Shio is "like a Kojin!", something they've both done often, not realizing. But this time it was within earshot of one of Shio's brothers, who pulls them aside and explains why what they are saying is wrong. Shio is not like a Kojin, she is one. Alisaie and Lyse understand, and feel awful, apologizing. Both do not make the mistake again. 

Hien, Gosestsu, Yugiri- immediately understand and accept, apologizing for ever messing up. 

Also Hein has a discussion with Shio late one night, after a bunch of sake, when he thinks Gosestsu and Yugiri aren't listening. He wonders if he might be happier as Xeala, talking wistfully and joyfully about his time among them in the Steppes, how now in this palace he feels out of place. He claims it was merely a joke. He's lying to himself. It was not. 

Aymeric- smiles, nods, doesn't understand. Gets what literature he can, but it only confuses him more. It's not until Estinien comes back and explains it to him, does he kinda sorta get it. 

Raubahn- at first, thought that's what Raen called themselves. It wasn't until meeting Yugiri that he was corrected, then had things explained to him. Understands better now, though also believes the Kojin are a powerful underwater warrior peoples. 

Nanamo- confused, asks questions earnestly, trying to learn. Thinks she gets it, and kind of does. Would like to see Tamamizu one day. 

Merlwyb- really does not get it for the longest time. She does eventually come around, and makes clear any sign of calling Shio anything but Kojin is a sign of disrespect, but it does take her a bit. She may be a force for progress and change in Limsa, but she's still Limsan. Stubborn as any of them. 

Kann-E Senna- genuinely hard to tell. Always keeps that same practiced smile on her face. She calls Shio "Kojin", but does she believe or understand? Unclear. 

Gaius- "Why would you ever want be one of those beasts-" gets cut off by angry turtle

Zeno- "If I gutted every beastman there, then would you fight me with that same fervor?" which threatening that does work, much to his joy

Feo Ul- first needs an explanation of what Kojin are. Then points out "well of course you're one! You swim better than any other, you have respect for the spirits, and I've seen my precious sapling take hits from those nasty lightwardens straight to her back and been fine! So clearly you must have a hard shell back there!" then after a moment. "[appropriate pet name], if you are displeased with your form, know that I can shape it into whatever will make you happy. I'll adore you no matter what shape you take."

Matoya- Doesn't care what Shio is (and that is how she terms it), just leave her alone. She does chastise Alphinaud and Y'shtola at one point- "Let people be who they are, and mind your own!" 

Ameliance- welcomes "Shio of the Blue", having already been told in letters. Does her best to be supportive. 

Fourchenault- very pointedly avoids referring to Shio by anything. Eventually is called out on it by Alisaie. 

Vrtra- accepts it. No big fanfare or anything, just accepts it

Nidhana- rolls with it easily, just wants Shio’s help and to research Shio

Meteion, Hermes, Hythlodaeus, Emet-Selch (past), Venat- have no point of reference for Kojin, so assume Shio is just what one is. Should be noted the description is eerily similar to Azem’s true form.

Emet-Selch (present)- knows what a Kojin is now, and that it is similar to Azem’s true form. He knows it should be Shio’s true shape, and that, if things were right, she could take that shape easily. The fact that she can’t disgusts him.

The results are in from the previous polls of everyone's least favorite dungeons from all the xpacs and patches and now the winners face off. The winner of this one will go up against praetorium tomorrow or Saturday.

disclaimer: these are all meant in good fun. I love the game and the dungeons

(the original arr one still has a little time left on it since I made it a week long poll, but at this point there's no way anything is going to pass aurum vale which is ahead by ~150 votes)

there was a wide range in how many people voted on each but in all cases but one (shb patches) there was a pretty large margin that the winner was ahead by and those things usually don't change overall even with a ton more voters. so honorary mention shout out to matoya's relict for only being 2 votes behind grand cosmos

[mypoeticsoul-ny]

Waif

I reach for you to touch your cheek

To fall in deeply, become weak

I use your words as bed of feathers

As life around succumbs and weathers

Within your presence I felt safe

Yet love became a common waif

I close my eyes, refuse to see

From every thought I try to flee

Finding distraction in every flower

Behind the lock and chained up tower

I hide away and build a fort

Ignoring everyone in court

Each turtle, bunny fish and bird

My tears and sighs they all have heard

Megami Tensei II [SNES] livetweet thread (5/9)

takuma: PFF YOU'RE NOT MY MOTHER *gets paralyzed again*

btw that's how the lady responds if you try to make ryu or asuka take the medicine instead.... what does that mean

~

mora goddamnit!! that wasn't the turtle duel i was hoping it would happen

zaratan's stomach isn't big but can be a very unnerving dungeon because they kept the vore-like feeling pretty intense, with random spots taking a good portion of your party's health, the enemies not being the type that you can talk to and you can't escape until the end

~

lol since i've been rewinding a lot i haven't noticed until this dungeon but recarm in MTI/II fully heals the mp while in SMT1 it resets to 0 no matter how much you had before and SMT1 still is hilariously easier than any of them

but the quality improvements are very much real, i'd say at least this remake plays far better and faster than og SMT1 even

it's just that regarding enemy level, skill distribution, money earned etc, it's... genuinely very hard

at lvl40 rn and i still can't make asuka do much aside healing and defending herself because oh lord no healing items oh lord gotta save my mp and hp as much as i can

mora: 😑

~

this scene but with american 1990s tv show sonic saying it

~

bitch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i was 100% expecting this to happen obviously but a part of me is still sour at the game being 'oh do you wanna side with ryu your best friend? :)' and then 'oh actually you can't, follow this girl you never talked once from now on'

froggy

takuma: ryu PLEASE just tell me why the fuck did you you release lucifer again ryu:

~

forgot to mention but this is THE debut game of very well known idols
