The Scientist Headquarter

Introducing THE LAB, location unknown.

There's some weird alien life dwarf floating in some questionable liquid. Who did that and how long has it been here?

A great place to build a rocket though.

You can just write a paper about something you saw when out for a walk? Oh right, I guess you need to have a PhD first.

SCIENCE BEGETS TRUTH✨

A přesně takhle ztrácím jakoukoliv motivaci pracovat ve vědě.

Je dost možné že vážně nebudu.

Teď to tak vážně nevidím. Když Vám přednášející rovnou řekne, že nemalé procento dat je falešných. Neúplných. Že jako bioinformatik byste sice měl ideálně pracovat na projektu od samého prvopočátku, ale v reálu si Vás najmou až ve chvíli, kdy mají "nějaká" data, ale nemají k nim prakticky žádnou pořádnou dokumentaci.

A vy víte, že je to pravda, protože děláte v laboratoři a víte, jak mizerně to tam v tomhle ohledu funguje...

... Jak neobratně k tomu sami přistupujete... Protože nevíte, jak přesně některé věci měřit...

Uf.

Deprese za dveřmi. (Kecám, spolubydlíme spolu, spolu s vyhořením už od roku ...)

Já popravdě vůbec nevím, zda tady tohle vůbec mohu sdílet, ale...

Věděli jste, že existují ornitologové (nejen) ezoterici, kteří když nejsou schopni určit pohlaví ptáka například při kroužkování, tak nechávají rozhodovat siderické kyvadélko? Že vytáhnou z kapsy hřebík, uvážou ho na provázek a řeknou si "hmm, tak co tady máme?"? A že někteří mají opravdové siderické kyvadélko? A... že to dělá i chlápek s nejvyšším počtem okroužkovaných ptáků v Česku?

Ach jo, ach jo, a pak mají ta data o něčem vypovídat...

Frankenstein: the point of my story is to NOT do what I did. Be cautious with life and be responsible for your own actions, or it will be your downfall. Do not end up like me.

5th grade me, after reading Frankenstein for the first time: oh, I know EXACTLY what I want to be when I grow up!

You don't need to believe that people as a whole are good or well-intentioned to be an optimist about fixing climate change.

A lot of the time, it's enough to trust in this: people hate being screwed over. And even more than that, they hate feeling screwed over.

Climate change is actively screwing over almost every single person on this planet, whether they know it or not. We just need to keep making sure that people do know that they're getting screwed over, along with all their loved ones, and who's doing it.

Spite and righteous anger will honestly do a lot of the rest.

I couldn’t sleep so I stayed up until 6am drawing this. Hope this makes the like. Three Adrian Shepard fans that exist happy. I love him and I think he should have beautiful long hair idc that they’d make him shave it he would just beat them up until they let him keep it.

some Barney from black mesa doodles ft. gordon freeman and various creatures :)

I am currently playing through the black mesa version of blue shift and doing what im calling a "chumrun" (very stupid I know) I didnt get to see the chumtoad easter egg in the og blue shift but when i saw the black mesa team turned theirs INTO A PLUSHIE!?!?!?!?? i knew i had to bring it to the end of the game with me. I like to think it was a gift that gordon gave him on the day of the res cas and he decided to go back and grab it (idk how that would work but just indulge me) because he is going to find gordon and give him a big ol' hug and a thank you and get out of black mesa together and nothing bad is going to happen :)

You are everything I aspire to be

If parenting has taught me anything, it is the importance of getting down on your hands and knees and teaching not just facts, but love and enthusiasm for the natural world.

This is my son Q and me. I have dozens of photos like this by now, even though he is just two years old.

Every chance I get, I will kneel down with him and show him the little creatures all around us. Especially when they are frogs. He loves frogs for some reason. No idea why.

It is important that we all see this together. It is beautiful. It is magnificent. We are here. It is improbable to the highest degree. It is fleeting, but it is everything we get. And we can get so, so much of it. If we just get our faces into it and really absorb it.

So that's what l'm trying to do here, I guess. Get all of you to join me in the reeds. And I am so happy to have so many of you along for the journey.

I'm not sure if I believe the "Wakaba Isshiki did unethical experiments" theory in the fandom, but I do think this is the biggest proof of it in-game:

Because how the hell would she know that?

The first explanation is that she did experiments by sending people into palaces and then testing what happens to them if the palace collapses. Which is messed up for obvious reasons.

The second explanation is that she did NOT test it, meaning she was just making shit up. Which is funny but also would make her a terrible scientist. This explanation is less believable because everything else about her research is too accurate.

There's also a theory that Wakaba did unethical experiments on Akechi specifically. I'm not sure I believe that, since the evidence for it is pretty shallow (like the featherman game scientist experimenting on grey pigeon). But this scene is once again the biggest argument you could make for that theory. The researcher in the image above refers to palaces by their correct term 'palaces', which they say was based on Wakaba's research. But that's only something you would know with firsthand experience of the metaverse. And the only person they know who could access the metaverse was Akechi (that we know of, but i dont think Shido would rely only on Akechi if there were other options).

So yeah this scene is very sus. It's most likely the writers didn't think too deep about the implications. There's no way they wanted Futaba's mom to be sketchy, right? But even if it's not intentional, the scenes and their implications still exist. So in conclusion those theories make sense, I get it, and I don't blame anyone for headcanoning them and having fun. And tbh anyone involved with cognitive psience was portrayed as some degree of unethical (maruki for example), maybe this is just on-brand
