#isn't paying attention for embryo

[imzsuzsis-blog]

"Thank you Amanda... Damn, the other one is fine, you just scared me... I see him now as an embryo." "No Lando. That's a fetus, shut up. I'm glad that sprint pole is here, but don't make such a fuss." "It's okay, ma'am." I bit my lip, I hated it when someone told me to shut up or shut up. Then the vampire comes out of me, I won't bite a good person. But now I want deer. ,, navel piercing? Shit, you only speak English????” "I have that too and I've never hit a big drum." "What else do you have?", "My ass is a fucking tattoo that makes me a real bitch." I pulled my nose up and started sputtering again, it could be anything, I didn't do much with it, I was just a little bit louder, that's all, but it was nothing because it only happened later that the sprint pole was mine and I could scream with a throat full of joy and I just hugged Loki the whole time and I said what our relationship is young for... The word "I love you" is beautiful, beautiful, but still early. "I have to go, I want to withdraw this love too soon." I licked my mouth inside, it was a big problem, they came out either because I was a little sad or because they told me to shut up. I held my vampire teeth in front of my mouth, palmed both of them, but I didn't understand anything with them, even when I went out the door at a fast pace, because some blood came out of it, yes, I bit someone in the castle and sucked the blood out of them, I was thirsty, I couldn't take it . I'm still 90. I have to control myself or join a vampire family. I can't do this anymore, even if I cheerfully lie to everyone that I'm 24. Yes, I wasn't 15 when I was bitten by a vampire because I had an illness that could not be cured in 1934. Good guy, I got the flu to such an extent that I almost died of it. We knew the glossary well, but we didn't know that a vampire came over even on the day of my death, when it was really bad, he bit me all the time, I don't know who he was, I just remember that he had a good son with whom I dated for a while.

"Lokiiiiii help me please!!!!!!!" I believe Lando ran out of breath, his mouth looked like a vampire's, his teeth were sharp and bloody, and his mouth was full of blood around him. "What is this party costume you're wearing?" "Don't fuck me, it's not because of a party in a disco that I'm shining like a fucking disco ball!!!!!" He came out and stood by a wall, then he hit a big one so that it broke in and we saw the snooker tables inside. "Good, good, now calm down and tell me what happened. You know, we agreed that we know there are vampires, demons and their companions in the world, if you are a vampire I will believe you." I went closer to him and took him out of the shards, but he was quite bloodthirsty, so I started backing away from him so that I wouldn't be the next victim. I didn't succeed, he jumped behind me and I could already feel his breath on my neck. "Darling, please don't. I know you are thirsty but don't!!!! If you really love me then..." "I don't care, you and I will be together forever from now on what you're going to do..." "What's more, this isn't a parody of a Dracula movie from the '90s, Lando, and it wasn't funny!!!! Leslie Nilsen was also spinning in him grave from this bad black joke, my dear.” I slapped him when he put his tongue on me, but he didn't let go. When I realized it, I moaned and trembled. It hurt. In fact, I don't know what a vampire bite is like, but I don't think it's that deep. ,,Deep!!!!!!!!!" ,,Jesus Loki!!!!!!”

I knelt next to him and covered my mouth again with the third person whom I would gently bite as I pleased. First Osc in the car on the way to the track when he didn't pay attention, today two more, a strange woman and Loki, what the hell is wrong with me, fuck me. I looked up to see a woman standing in front of me with red-brown hair that must be sexy for heterosexuals, her blue eyes, her nose must have been operated on, her mouth is average and her ears are full of soda. Her outfit is a shoulder-length pullover with sexy jeans and white sneakers. "Peacher Xedir?" I could only nod with tears in my eyes and tell the lady what I did again and with whom. "I loved Loki, I was a jerk again and all I thought about was drinking." I could smell it, I could feel what was coming, I took my hair out of my eyes and looked down. "You didn't have it with you, huh?" You killed the whole Norris family and now you're Lando?” "No, it's not true, I've settled in. I just wanted to be a human again, but it didn't work. The fucking pregnancy is the reason I slept with a good man's boy and now I'm pregnant, Andery." She crouched down in front of me and I hugged her trembling, I was afraid of what would happen if it turned out to be Lando Norris the vampire...

————————————————————————————-

"I'm a vampire, I'm a vampire." I rolled over in bed and kicked poor Loki. Finally, I climbed onto his upper body with a tearful face and grabbed him. "It's okay, it's okay." I woke up to his caress, I looked at him, I was very shocked, this dream made me ready. "Tell me." He wiped the tears from my face. I finally started sobbing with my legs outstretched and clutching him. "I was a vampire, I was a vampire!!!!!!! I killed people!!!!!!!” "Shh baby, it's just a dream, vampires don't exist." ,,But yes!!!!! in my dream it was so real.” I sniffed when he was already kissing my forehead and I asked for my kiss of sorrow again.

Okay, I am well read, but I know I am not all Knowing. Did a quick spot of research though, so I feel vaguely confident with this, lmk if I'm super wrong. But.

why do y'alls intersex omegas have an entire dick and then, referenced as a distinct other thing, an entire clit? How's that work? Are they stacked? Is this a strap on situation? If they're stacked is the clit higher than the dick or the other way around? This isn't even getting into the whole thing with prostates are only a thing to make semen go smoother so the implication of an omega with a prostate but without testicles is baffling. Cause there's more things under the sun, Horatio, but a clit and a dick grow from the same start point in the embryo same as how testes and ovaries start the same so y'all, darlings, I love you, I support you, I want you to write whatever you desire, but the anatomical implications of 'he slid down from his dick to pay attention to his clit' are turning my brain into a screaming whirl of biological confusion.

Thinking of extremely silly ideas for the Cybermorph au 🤔

Warning: this is much lighter and softer than the usual stuff!

Like... Megatron isn't a first-generation Cybermorph. He is, however, one of the most favoured of his mother's daughters. Galvatron thinks he'll make an excellent Queen when Galvatron either decides to leave Cybertron to spread his Hive or decides to send out his daughters to establish a new branch.

He's also quite young and, unfortunately, quite impulsive and rash. His chitin is already scarred from brawls with siblings he shouldn't have picked a fight with, but did anyway.

He's definitely not ready to lead a Hive, but again, Galvatron adores him and thinks letting lead a little Hive of his own will be excellent practice.

All Megatron asks for is a first-generation Cybermorph, Orion Pax, who pretty much nobody ever pays attention to.

I have been rotating spoiled cybermorph princess Megatron in my head for like 2 weeks straight and it never stops being an amazing concept

I love this. I love it so much. I love him being his carrier's favorite child, I love him being the first purposefully conceived royal embryo. By the time Galvatron has completed his metamorphosis from a queen to an empress caste morph, his favorite morphling is ready to be dispatched and start his own hive. We had a whole long conversation about it in discord, talking about Orion eventually being made into Megatron's head praetorian and also being his favorite sire for fertilizing his eggs. There was a whole bit about the morphs being a natural aromantic-asexual species and Orion being confused about why the youngest princess is so obsessed with following him around and demanding his attention. Idk if this is making sense it's 6 a.m. and I've been up all night lmfao

But anyway. BIG YES. Is Megatron's hive on Cybertron? Or has the morph outbreak spread to the point he sets up a colony offworld? 👀 if so, where's he off to? Velocitron, perhaps? Eurythma? Some unnamed, forgotten planet that will recieve no sympathy or assistance from the senate? I'd love to know!

Navigating the Path to Parenthood: Understanding Ovulation, IVF Treatment, and Infertility

Embarking on the journey to parenthood can be both thrilling and daunting. For many, the road isn't always straightforward, and that's perfectly okay. In this article, we'll delve into crucial aspects of family planning, shedding light on ovulation, the benefits of IVF treatment, navigating multiple IVF failures, and recognizing signs of both female and male infertility. Let's journey together through the maze of fertility, unlocking the mysteries and possibilities that lie ahead.

1. Unraveling Ovulation: The Key to Conception

Ovulation, the cornerstone of conception, is a pivotal phase in a woman's menstrual cycle. This process involves the release of a mature egg from the ovary, ready to be fertilized by sperm. Knowing when ovulation occurs is vital for couples trying to conceive naturally. Tracking menstrual cycles, paying attention to cervical mucus changes, and using ovulation predictor kits are effective ways to pinpoint this fertile window. Understanding your body's rhythm empowers you in the quest for parenthood.

2. The ART of Fertility: Exploring IVF Treatment

In the realm of fertility treatments, Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) stands out, offering hope to those facing challenges in conceiving. At the forefront is ART Fertility Clinic, a beacon of expertise and compassion. The benefits of IVF treatment are manifold. This assisted reproductive technique involves fertilizing an egg with sperm outside the body, then implanting the embryo into the uterus. IVF can overcome various fertility issues, including blocked fallopian tubes, endometriosis, and male infertility.

3. Facing Setbacks: Navigating Multiple IVF Failures

While the promise of IVF is substantial, it's essential to acknowledge that success may not be immediate. Many couples experience the heartbreak of multiple IVF failures. This journey can be perplexing, testing emotions and patience. However, it's crucial to remember that each failure is a stepping stone toward success. ART Fertility Clinic specializes in personalized care, understanding that every individual and couple is unique. They analyze each case meticulously, adapting strategies to increase the chances of a successful outcome.

4. Unmasking Female Infertility: Signs and Solutions

Female infertility is a complex and often misunderstood topic. Recognizing the signs is the first step toward seeking assistance. Irregular menstrual cycles, hormonal imbalances, and conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can contribute to female infertility. Seeking professional guidance from fertility experts at ART Fertility Clinic ensures a thorough evaluation and a tailored treatment plan. Addressing the root cause is paramount, and with advancements in reproductive medicine, various interventions can enhance fertility.

5. Decoding Male Infertility: Beyond the Stigma

The stigma surrounding male infertility often leads to delayed diagnosis and treatment. However, male factor infertility is just as significant as its female counterpart. Signs such as low sperm count, poor sperm motility, or abnormal sperm morphology warrant attention. At ART Fertility Clinic, a comprehensive approach is taken to assess male infertility, offering solutions ranging from lifestyle modifications to advanced reproductive techniques like intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). Breaking the silence around male infertility is crucial for fostering open conversations and seeking timely assistance.

6. Navigating Parenthood: A Personal Journey

The path to parenthood is unique for each individual or couple. It's a journey marked by triumphs and challenges, and sometimes, unexpected turns. The team at ART Fertility Clinic understands the intricacies of this journey and is committed to providing not just medical expertise but also unwavering support. Parenthood is a destination worth pursuing, and with the right guidance, even the most intricate paths can lead to the joy of a growing family.

In conclusion, understanding ovulation, exploring the benefits of IVF treatment, navigating through multiple IVF failures, and recognizing signs of both female and male infertility are crucial steps in the pursuit of parenthood. ART Fertility Clinic stands as a beacon of hope, guiding individuals and couples through the maze of fertility challenges. Remember, your journey is unique, and with the right support, the path to parenthood becomes not just navigable but also immensely rewarding.

[uponrightful]

Ok, I am hooked on Phantom Squad. Give us more on their personalities? Physical attributes? What do they like to do in their down time? What pisses each of them off ?

Hi there!!! I'm so excited to see you in my inbox 🥰🥰

So, I chose physical attributes. However, I'm going to give kind of... the general "run-down" of things. So like, what they all share and certain visuals that are common amongst the boys. As well as a couple of the really noticeable personal details. In the future, I would love to do more in-depth descriptions of all of them individually. Maybe even figure out a way to have some art done of them...

Anyways, I hope this is what you're looking for and it gives some better insight.

Phantom Squad - Physical Attributes

Preface:

Phantom Squad was initially put into their growth pods before a large amount of construction was done on Kamino to increase the production demands of clone soldiers. This alone, shouldn't have influenced their appearances because they were not considered to be "specialized" or anything more than regulation clones set to be split apart once their batch was ready for training. However, the construction efforts on Kamino were rushed, and this meant that many growth pods needed to be relocated to other sections of the complex. In itself, the transportation process isn't complex. Yet a very strict set of procedures must be followed to ensure that the growing embryos aren't risked. Phantom Squad was unlucky enough to have been housed in one of the older sections of the main cloning lab. Thus when expansion became a high priority, the Phantoms had to be moved.

Quickly.

Multiple Times.

When growing human lifeforms unnaturally, many technological necessities must be intact at all times. Otherwise, oxygen supplies, temperature, nutrition, and other essential factors can become unbalanced. Or worse, unrecoverable. The act of moving growth pods multiple times was a huge risk to the Phantoms, and this resulted in their vital supplies being either delayed or completely halted at times. Resulting in visual changes that were almost immediately noticeable to the Kaminioans that did pay enough attention to them in the first place.

Fearing their lack of production as it was, there were multiple clone batches that were risked just as Phantom Squad was that were more or less experimented on as a last-ditch attempt to save the "viability" of the to-be soldiers. As for the Phantoms, in particular, they were given some manipulations that, up until that point, were considered invaluable to the cloning effort since its inception.

Alpha-Class Genetics.

The Kaminioans were well-aware of the benefits and glaring disadvantages of their Alpha-class DNA modifications. Physically, the soldiers were taller, stronger, and all-around much more proficient fighters in a general sense. Mentally though, they were much harder to "control", therefore making them a very difficult "product" to sell to the Republic in mass quantities. The Alpha-class troopers still within Republic control were a very good example of how unmanageable they could be at times.

Yet, Phantom Squad was not genetically Alpha-class. Their general make-up was identical to Jango Fett, and this made the idea of inserting certain genetic markers in small quantities into Phantom Squad much more viable. So in the interest of saving one of their failing batches, the Kaminoians spliced together certain traits to give Phantom Squad the best chance at survival. Hoping that they would live just long enough to pass their initial training and ward off the Republic's need for soldiers until they could begin doubling their efforts with improved and enlargened facilities.

They did not expect the Alpha-Class genetic additions to have such a prominent impact. Whereas some areas of concern were totally unchanged after the manipulation, others were seemingly overwritten and enhanced beyond the standard expectations for development. But by the time the Kaminoians realized their "mistakes", Phantom Squad was ready to be decanted and their initial training to begin. For the scientists, it wasn't really an experiment gone right. They felt that they had loose cannons on their hands, and were quite happy with the idea of decommissioning the batch before things got out of hand or their actions were questioned.

By manner of luck -or well-thought-out plan- Chancellor Palpatine was the one who considered Phantom Squad an immense opportunity and brought forth the idea that they should be selected for a special forces unit that would have zero contact with Republic forces after their training was complete. The Kaminioans were more than happy to accept. Phantom Squad was hardly their responsibility any longer, and the Chancellor paid a heavy price for the five men who easily stood out amongst the rest of the batches decanted near the same date.

Shared Visible Genetic Attributes:

Most noticeable about Phantom Squad is their height and build. Whereas regs come in at a respectable -and Fett-like- six feet tall, the Phantoms stand at a toweringly unsusal six-foot-four. The sight of them is truly impressive. And during their time on Kamino, it was often that they were mistaken for Alpha-class troopers even before they were given their armor kits. This proved useful for the cadet Phantoms in many ways... But drew much negative attention from those like the Chancellor and scientists on Kamino hoping to make profits off their "failed experiments".

All five are nearly identical with small differences in build -due to varying exercise and other health choices- as well. Their muscle definition is more easily defined, strength capabilities, and overall mass adds on an extra 40-42 pounds than that of a reg. Initially, this wasn't detectable by the Kaminoians in charge of predicting their peak physical capabilities. They were quite surprised when seeing their progression throughout "childhood" and "early-adult stages" clipping at a development pace above others of the same age. Throughout their training, it was clear that the Phantoms would be best suited to undergo advanced training programs after their graduation to better "control" and hone their respective differences from regs.

To add to their outstanding appearance, Phantom Squad takes much of their batch's namesake and individual names from another large part of their uniqueness. Their hair and eyes.

Not affected by Alpha genetics, it was a bit of an unspoken reason as to why all of Phantom Squad were decanted with silvered hair and cool-toned grey eyes. There were constant rumors by reg peers that the cadets had somehow gotten ahold of hair bleach and took strides to keep their true hair color hidden from everyone else. Understandably, all the cadets wanted to look unique, but no one could come up with a good reason as to how they could change their eye color as well. Those genetic scientists who had the most contact with the batch didn't understand either. But the very overlooked team of regulators who shifted the growth pods during the squad's gestation period did know the answer.

When their pods were disconnected from the permanent life-support towers holding all of their vital nutritional supports and monitoring levels, replacement support was immediately reconnected to stabilize the batch for transport. However, mineral levels in the mobile units went unchecked as a result of glaringly obvious malpractice. Therefore providing zero access to necessary vitamin B-12 for an extended period of time. This, combined with a number of other factors, resulted in grey hair and eyes. This greying does not just pertain to their head either. Eyelashes, eyebrows, and any body hair are all silvered as well. Leaving the Phantoms with yet another reason to think of themselves as made for the task of being invisible.

Individual Visual Attributes (not in-depth):

Omen:

To begin, the Commander can be safely described as a man who doesn't take the time to worry about... frills. Even when it comes to his physical appearance. He's far more concerned with how his body performs. Therefore Omen's chosen length of "personalization" lies in his tattoos, and -fairly typical- hair choices. With one additional identifier that he silently hates but can't escape.

Since the moment it became an option, Omen has been partial to facial hair. Particularly a strong beard with some respectable length. With so much time spent away from anyone considered a commanding officer who would even think about reprimanding him for being outside of regulation, he's not shaved clean in years. Of course, maintenance is key, and the Commander isn't a stranger to cleaning up new growth on his upper cheeks and ensuring that scraggly hairs along the edges don't ruin the look.

His hair is a much more utilitarian style in comparison. Omen enjoys the simplicity of maintenance of a buzzed head but never quite liked the look or feel. On the opposite end of the spectrum, the idea of a mess of hair knotted up to fit under a helmet didn't appeal either. So, in his own best interest, he melded the two styles as he saw fit. Think about skin-faded on the sides. With enough length on top to have a french or dutch braid running right down the center.

As for tattoos, Omen isn't the most heavily inked of his brothers. But he's not the least by any stretch of the imagination. Most notable is the one that sits centered on his forehead. An upside-down triangle. The wide end complimenting his straight hairline and the point coming to rest near the middle of his forehead. The outer line of the design is thin, and a black inner triangle is separated from the former with negative space. It was his first -as it was for all of his brothers- as it is their squad's homage to their unit and identity as "Phantoms"; Adopting many traditional philosophies that consider the use of a triangle as a sign of spirits, ghosts, phantoms, and other paranormal entities.

And lastly, everyone can't pick only good things about themselves or what ends up defining the significance of their appearance. And Omen's is his scar. It rests from temple to temple, over both eyelids, the wide bridge of his nose, and down a bit on his right cheek. The whitened skin resembles a splatter of some kind of another against his tanned complexion, and Omen can't stand the sight of it. He's highly guarded about it, despite how noticeable it is, and goes to long lengths to keep it hidden by the use of his helmet. The scar is a result of a particularly... gruesome, mission that all of the Phantoms would rather forget about. And while most came out with small physical reminders of the event, Omen emerged with a permanent scar that spans nearly the entire top half of his face. Luckily his vision wasn't affected due to quick treatment of the wounds, but the Commander often wishes it would've damaged his eyes just enough to where he didn't have to see that scar.

Wraith:

Wraith likes things classic. He's very partial to the standard clone-cut and hasn't deviated from it since he can remember caring what his hair looked like. This isn't totally the Lieutenant's personal motivation though. Wraith is inarguably the stiffest out of his squad when it comes to regulation and doing what he can within reason to appease the regulation and rules that he was taught during his cadethood. And while most of those terrible influences fell to the wayside once Wraith got a taste of life away from Kamino, a few particularly tricky habits stuck around. Just like his immaculate hair that he could spend nearly an entire morning trying to tame back fly-away curls.

As said before, all of Phantom Squad have their sigil somewhere on their body. But getting them wasn't the easiest mission to accomplish. For years, every except Wraith was more than happy to have an identical tattoo marking them as not just squadmates, but batch-brothers. The Lieutenant gave his constant opinion that should anyone find out about their "identifying markers" it would result in severe punishment. Or worse. And he did have a fair point. There was always the imminent threat that their anonymous presence would become recognizable in time. And something like tattoos would only make it easier to tell them apart. However, one mission on Daro left the whole squad with a very harsh reminder of just how easily their lives could be ended.

It was in the safety of the ship hours after they has escaped Daro that Wraith came forward with the request that they find somewhere to have their sigil tattooed. And the sooner the better. When asked for a reason for his change in heart, his reasoning was more than enough excuse for Omen to decide to change coordinates according to Rev who know exactly who needed to do their ink.

"If any of us die, everyone should know who we are,"

This is Wraith's singular tattoo. And every time he sees it while looking in the mirror; Resting over the right side of his chest, a swell of pride and a sense of belonging rises in his chest.

Revenant:

Firstly, Revenant is the most severe in terms of his tattoos and hair. He's a very physically connected person not just in terms of what his brothers consider his "sixth sense" but with touch and the many ways he can achieve a level of contact with people around him.

His expansive collection of tattoos is the biggest show of that and makes for a lasting visual impression. Of his brothers, Rev outmatches them in number and scale of body art. In what had begun as a one-off decision to get a tattoo from a woman on a small moon in the outer rim, Revenant began a tradition of getting inked on every planet he could. Picking an artist with a genuine traditional style and the desire to give a visitor a piece of their culture before he departed. And after years of planet-hopping, Rev began filling up his arms, legs, torso, neck, and even his hands and feet.

Wraith always groans when he sees Revenant nursing a new piece of art and Omen always wondered where he's getting the credits to pay for it. But that's what makes things unique for Revenant. He's never once requested a certain image or style. He's not even interested in if it's color or black and grey. He's in it for the connection. The opportunity to have someone talk to him about their life and traditions. All while touching him in one way or another. Working diligently at his skin and putting their permanent mark on him. He relishes in the pain and excitement. The lessons and experience. It's worth the time for him and to date, no one has ever made him pay for his tattoos. As for his matching sigil with his brothers, Revenant made sure that no matter where he was the triangle would be visible by placing it on the back of his dominant left hand. Separate from all of his other art.

Ghost:

Of the Phantoms, Ghost is the most notorious for having the most... interesting appearance. That is, considering he's got more metal in his skin than any of his brothers. In addition to hair and tattoos, Ghost really likes his collection of piercings.

All six of them.

The two in his nostril, a septum ring, and tongue piercing take care of a little more than half of the mystery, but it's not going to be quite as easy to figure out where the others are located unless you're able to get him out of his kit.

In addition to his constellation of bars and hoops, Ghost sits comfortably in the middle of his brothers when it comes to tattoos and just how many he has. More importantly, Ghost has a very strict theme and does his due diligence to make sure that his space-themed ink is nearly exact in size and scale. Being such an immense lover of galaxies and all of the impressive sights one can see while traveling in space, Ghost has spent the majority of his skin space permanently paying homage to his favorite constellations and other important spots in the galaxy.

To the chagrin of his brothers, Ghost is the most inconsistent when it comes to his hair. It's often that seeing the pilot two times will result in the slight shock of seeing something close to Captain Rex's buzzcut, while the next time he's caught without his helmet, he's much closer in style to Commander Wolffe or even Captain Howzer. The variety in Ghost's hairstyles comes from his often restless mind and the desire to switch things up as often as he can. Within his comfort level of course.

This being said, Ghost will spend months and years between these changes, and the only reason his brothers find it so "frequent" is that they found what they liked quickly and stuck to it almost like a religion. Even in Ghost's desire to keep finding inspiration through something like his hair, there's one cut that he always finds himself coming back to. And it's a simple undercut. One that leaves him feeling refreshed and lighter. He likes the look. How he can let his curls live and breathe without having to tie them up or worry about them getting super tangled.

Specter:

This man is going to be easily identifiable just by his body language even in full armor. But if he's seen without his helmet and armor, you’ll see his preference for a very clean-cut... with an infuriatingly confusing desire for a flair of extravagance. Specter is a close second to Revenant with the expansiveness of his tattoos, and he's very proud of them in a quiet way compared to how Revenant is much more open to letting people see his or add to his collection.

While black and blue ink tattoos are most common, Specter has the singular experience of finding someone who was able to not only what white ink tattoos are, but that they can/actually do create them. White ink shows up like scars on Specter and he loves the look of them. They curl around his neck and up the sides of his head; Melding into his silver hair and disappearing under the collar of his shirt. It’s a beautiful contrast against his tanned skin, and extremely well-executed by the mystery artist that Specter refuses to identify.

As for his hair, he likes it short. With shaved sides that allow to his tattoos to show when he isn’t wearing his helmet. Typically he slicks it back to keep his -very unruly- mess of curls from falling into his face. Additionally, he likes a hard part. And the edged line of his part sits in perfect line with a slit in his eyebrow. Specter’s look overall is somewhere perfectly balanced between anonymously threatening and somehow strikingly intricate and effortlessly simple at the same time.

[rihon-scribe-some-writer-guy]

It’s Monday, the twentieth of March. I’m replying now because I take the weekends off from tumblr (I solely blog at work) and I had to review an account of a client to figure out if there’s a way for them to manage their money movements better or if it’s in the best interest of my company to drop them.

Yet now that I have addressed that work issue and am stuck in a slow work period, I can now respond to sure-I-can-just-give-me-over-a-month’s reblog.

No, we treat it as the terrible thing that it is. This isn't not paying attention to the road and hitting a pedestrian. This is a growing child.

If I’m being honest, the opening of this reblog is flabbergasting. This was a really poor attempt at answering a rhetorical question. To start with, maybe-I-can-after-forty-days-and-forty-nights confuses potential readers with their answer “No,” because now those potential readers then have to figure out which of the two choices they are denying. Reading their reblog, I believe that they are refuting both options, not realizing that the proper word should have been “Neither”. It also doesn’t help that they don’t clarify on how they would treat such an event, because this still leaves room for someone to assume that the terrible thing that it is is Manslaughter. The sad thing is that this isn’t a hypothetical.

Also, anyone who understands how ovulation works (mostly women, since, well, they kinda have to) knows that a zygote (a fertilized egg) can't simply be "reabsorbed." Expelled? Sure, but that's no-one's responsibility.

Hey, sure-I-can-assume-that-I-know-what-I’m-talking-about-just-me-find-an-internet-article-without-understanding-it, the article you referenced showed no disproval of fetal resorption. That’s because it an actual thing. Here’s an article written by legit scientists. And guess what? One of them is named Barbara Drews.

You know what, but one get two free:

An embryo begins developing very, very early on. Nearly everyone on the internet has probably seen those diagrams of fetal development, be it online, in school, or a booth at the county fair.

The… county fair? The County Fair? No-I-don’t-want-to-take-my-date-on-the-Farris-wheel-just-stare-at-this-tri-board-which-might bring-up-awkward-conversation-to-young-children and I have different memories of county fairs.

But enough about comparing who had the sadder childhood. Let’s move onto the next paragraph where we can begin readdressing the original point of this debate.

My personal argument is that a human life is a human life no matter how big or small. A zygote is a potential human, and the moment it starts replicating cells, it is definitely alive.

I’m being completely genuine when I say that this paragraph was well worded. I appreciate how sure-I-can label this as their “personal argument” because such wording acknowledges that everyone has a opinion and some might differ. If sure-I-can ever gets pregnant and decides to carry out the pregnancy, then I fully support their choice. If they decide that they should name their zygote, then I wish them the best of luck in picking a name that doesn’t misgender them. If they decide that rather than celebrating their child’s birthday that they will celebrate their conception day, then by all means have a zygote decorated cake surrounded by sperm designed cupcakes.

Are single cell organisms not alive?

Well, biology could classify both sperm cells and unfertilized eggs as living cells, yet that doesn’t grant legal rights for them if they are unable to reproduce.

Why do we chop wood and not animals for heat?

To answer your question, wood is use over animals to fuel a fire because wood acts as a better base than animal.

Also, this rhetorical question becomes invalid when you consider that trees are considered living and neither trees nor animals have human rights.

The big question is: what makes us human?

It’s a question so vast in scope that different individuals will have different answers and justifications to their answers.

Everyone has the potential to live and die. It might be easier to accept when a zygote dies for whatever reason, but imagine being a mother who has tried and tried again to have a baby, only for the zygote or fetus to die.

Nothing within this paragraph addresses the question that you raise.

Saying “everyone has the potential to live and die” comes of as empty ramblings to me.

If it was truly easy to accept the natural termination of a zygote then it should be easy to accept the abortion of said zygote.

Individual who find themselves in such a situation as to not being able to conceive an offspring shouldn’t have to worry about being prosecuted over a miscarriage.

Those same individuals also have the option to adopt. Of the 400,000 children in foster care of the United States alone, approximately 117,000 are waiting to be adopted.

I'm choosing not to go into the spiritual aspect since it's not needed. However, Christianity (and probably other Abrahamic religions) teaches that humans consist of a mind, body, and spirit. Without one the other is severely disabled. So, for any who do belive in the "soul" concept, when is a zygote endowed with a spirit?

Sure-I-can-avoid-going-into-spirituality-just-let-me-drop-this-point-that-regards-spirituality seems like they don’t understand how to write in a consistent manner. Just omit the first sentence.

Since sure-I-can already brought Christianity into the mix, it should be noted that it’s word doesn’t give a definitive answer on the pressing question. For example, I could reference the creation of man in Genesis where God breathed live into Adam, concluded that human life lies in breathing and reasoning that a human life begins at birth. I could also reference how the only mention of abortion in the Bible is found in the fifth chapter of Numbers, where God instructed Moses to instruct priest on how to deal with a woman who conceived a child outside of her marriage with her husband. In it, God list an instruction for the priests to create a curse and potion that would cause a miscarriage.

Exodus 21 could raise the interpretation of the life of the mother superseding the life of a fetus.

If i solely went off of the claim that Christianity teaches how consist of body, mind, and spirit, then a rebuttal to sure-I-can personal argument exist. A zygote doesn’t have a human body. A zygote won’t develop a neural system for weeks. Finally, interpretation of the Christian faith could lead to the conclusion that one doesn’t become a living human being until they accept Jesus as savior and lord and the Holy Spirit then dwells within them.

Not everyone accepts the Christian faith.

Closing thoughts.

I probably could address more, but this reblog chain is lengthy enough as it is. So instead, I’m choosing to hold onto the opinion that birthing individuals should be able to make choices about their bodily autonomy and wait for another retort.

I look forward to it as it will push the note section to 💯!

The following is taken from interviews of medical professionals and bioethicists in the field:

Just as there are legal implications that flow from determining a person's death, from organ donation to inheritance, the implied rights held by a legally recognized zygote are potentially vast. Will death certificates be issued for every lost pregnancy? Will miscarriages be investigated? When will Social Security numbers be issued? How will census counts be tallied and congressional districts drawn?

Medical professionals and bioethicists caution that both the beginning and end of life are complicated biological processes that are not defined by a single identifiable moment — and are ill suited to the political arena.

"Unfortunately, biological occurrences are not events, they are processes," said David Magnus, director of the Stanford Center for Biomedical Ethics.

Moreover, asking doctors "What is life?" or "What is death?" may miss the point, said Magnus: "Medicine can answer the question 'When does a biological organism cease to exist?' But they can't answer the question 'When does a person begin or end?' because those are metaphysical issues."

Ben Sarbey, a doctoral candidate in Duke University's department of philosophy who studies medical ethics, echoed that perspective, recounting the Paradox of the Heap, a thought experiment that involves placing grains of sand one on top of the next. The philosophical quandary is this: At what point do those grains of sand become something more — a heap?

"We're going to have a rough time placing a dividing line that this counts as a person and this does not count as a person," he said. "Many things count as life — a sperm counts as life, a person in a persistent vegetative state counts as life — but does that constitute a person that we should be protecting?"

In short, the concept that human life begins at conception isn’t universally accepted.
