Why Icy Giants Have Strange Magnetic Fields
When Voyager 2 visited Uranus and Neptune, scientists were puzzled by the icy giants' disorderly magnetic fields. Contrary to expectations, neither planet had a well-defined north and south magnetic pole, indicating that the planets' thick, icy interiors must not convect the way Earth's mantle does.

Inside Droplets
Phase separation – two distinct phases separating from a mixture, as vinegar and oil will from an undisturbed salad dressing – into droplets plays a role in the biochemical dynamics and signals within cells. This study uses computer modelling to understand the interaction of networks of the cell's structural protein actin with droplets of the actin binding protein VASP influences cytoskeletal architecture

More than just the Demon.
#ffxiv#digital art#zenos yae galvus#venat#endwalker spoilers#will forever be fascinated with this man#look guys look- the literal embodiment of wol's wings of hope LOL (and me going hehe about that and footfalls)#the part of me that adores digging into the nuance of character writing (intentional or otherwise) is just latched onto zenos#and venat-- they cant just give us two characters who get really important 1v1 duels#and ask really important questions#and love the MC and are willing to risk themselves so unconditionally#and have them not live rent free in my brain#--and maybe this tiptoes into the realm of crack theory so beware there will be a lot past here--#but I cant help but think zenos is akin to an oracle or warrior of light but was tempered/corrupted by zodiark#or some strange happenstance of varis (who shares visual traits to golbez before 6.0 ever came out and the dark mana burst)#and carosa (who it seems zenos got his looks from- and he already looks like he has ties to venat and argos like minfillia does)#was he a result of the eternal chess match between the two parties' machinations? or just some strange twist of fate?#another day of him being “emet's successful experiment” (again- intentional or no) making me thonk#theres something so strange about the final days dreams and how dark aspected he is- that his void abilities are more tied to him tbh#yet his mannerisms beyond just what he's been through almost reminds me of light corruption and the uncanny calmness#we see in most beings associated with the light in any significant way and like second phase eden shiva#he almost has all the marks of someone who shouldve already had the echo or blessing of light but for one reason or another#was unable to hear hydaelyns call#of course it doesnt help i mentally associate him with connections to zero and how she was corrupted before she was even born#and durante- who states uncanny ability and connection with light and darkness and yet favors dark magic more#i simply live with the idea that zenos' soul was an eternally faithful companion to wol's and#this time the cardinal sin of separating the pair finally happened to rather dire consequences lmao

everything is transient. only an easy to draw guy is forever
#gorillaz#2d#stuart pot#gorillaz 2d#admin draws#fanart#needed a palate cleanser from my current fixation. came back to my roots#lore that i dont really get to talk about a lot outside of dms is that gorillaz is like a cornerstone of my art lol esp post 2018#ive had 4 main inspirations which are gorillaz phases 2-3. soul eater. homestuck. and a friend of mine. he knows who he is.#come to think of it 2018 is in some ways the year i really started drawing. 3/4 inspirations walked into my life that year#bc of this when i went to make a separate blog for art it became part of my username. slav-hewlett#ive had several dreams in which jamie hewlett just is there and gives me art advice and a few kind words. damon is usually there too#theyre a pack deal do not separate etc. those dreams are always really nice.#contrary to how much i draw 2d mudz is my favorite. its just that dear ol stu is very fun and much easier to draw#i should give murdoc a fair shot though. now that ive got the chops. theres been attempts thru the year but none were posted

metamy is insane. like.
what if i was the hero you loved gone wrong. defeated and destroyed. rebuilt as my own greatest enemy. what if i lost everything. what if i had been reprogrammed to despise all i had once fought for. what if i couldn't even remember why i had fought at all.
and what if you were made of roses. what if you represented every beautiful thing i once died trying to protect. what if you wore flowers in your hair and cared for small creatures and had eyes the color of the forests i used to call my home. what if you were everything i once loved.
those memories are just out of my reach. infuriatingly. maddeningly. but if anyone knows who i am (who i used to be) it's you. if anyone can make me feel like who i used to be (who i really am) it's you. i can't speak, i can't breathe, i can't remember anything (but you).
you are the world i have been ordered to burn. i am the weapon you have chosen to resist. i was (am) the hero that you loved.
you are my only memory.
#sonic#metamy#metal sonic#amy rose#like. the motifs man. the robot falls in love with rose.#he fought and died to protect nature. her name is AMY ROSE.#he fought and died to protect nature and HE WAS CONVERTED INTO A METAL WEAPON. used against his OWN DREAM.#you are a weapon against yourself. what do you remember? i remember her (i remember failing her)#he's cold. (un)dead. sharp. made of metal. enemy of life. LITERALLY AT WAR WITH HIMSELF (metalsonic v sonic).#she's so so warm. bright. soft. covered in flowers. the only thing that could be good and patient and loving enough to endure him.#it's about his unspoken obsession. he has no mouth he makes no sound he cannot blink or smile or cry.#so he stares in silence at a girl so beautiful and gentle he almost remembers. almost. almost. almost.#all she sees (at first) is a tool. a cold imitation of her love. staring unblinking. unthinking unfeeling.#and then. confusion. and then curiosity.#and when she figures it out. it turns to horror.#BUT THATS FOR LATER!#the best part to me is that weird phase where amy is like. what is this thing doinggg😭 (secretly affectionate) while metal stares at her👁👁#and composes love poem death threats (2 sonic) in his mind.#its about jealousy. im the true sonic. you say you love sonic and im sonic why dont you love me? love me. love me#-> you are kind to me. i had forgotten that feeling. i wont lose it again. so im gonna kill your boyfriend . if thats okay😁beepboop!#the dynamic between amy and sonic and sonics weird undead evil robot clone WHO WANTS TO BE 'THE REAL' SONIC SO BADLY is sooooo yummy.#esp if sonic in turn is like. 'is. is he actually a contender in this. AMY. YOURE BETTER THAN THIS.'#sonic's own sense of ego and entitlement (/pos i love him hes a rat) clashing in two separate forms. two separate lifetimes.#but! that rose! that same rose!!!!!!!!!!!#(clutches head in hands)#.txt

By Doris Loh
“It takes a lot of courage to present the truth as it is.
A recently published review of melatonin, peer-reviewed of course, discusses the multi-faceted functions of melatonin that is obviously more than just an antioxidant [1].
Considering melatonin was used by living organisms before there was oxygen on earth for approximately 2 billion years [2] is enough to persuade me, at least, that melatonin has other important functions in addition to that of an antioxidant.
What is melatonin, if it is not only an antioxidant? Why did living organisms all produce melatonin when there was no need for an antioxidant for close to 2 billion years?
Is it possible that melatonin regulates phase separation?
For melatonin to effectively regulate phase separation, the amount needs to be quite high, as shown in multiple experiments that directly and indirectly demonstrate that melatonin can regulate phase separation, but at elevated doses [2.3,4].
If that is true, what does it mean for human clinical trials using 2 to 10 mg per subject?”

Day 10 (?)
I COME BEARING AN AU!! I read like 2 pieces of media containing Fleetway Sonic and decided to do my own thing
He's less 'VIOLENCE AND GOING NUTS' and more 'walking definition of an identity crisis'
#daily dakot art#sonic fanart#sonic the hedgehog#sonic fandom#sonic franchise#super sonic#sonic the hedghog fanart#sonic the hedghog fandom#fleetway super#on the basis of inspiring this even though he's explicitly His Own Thing#sonic#daily art#hey wouldn't it be fucked up#to use the chaos emeralds to save the world. and then like by the third time black out and realize you don't remember what you did anymore?#and then at the same time that super version that's still *you* suddenly realizes it doesn't remember how it got here? and that#there was nothing. and then there was something#and he slowly comes to realise he's not you anymore. even though he WAS. and similarly. YOU are not HIM anymore. even though you were. e#even though it's your body and phase looking back at you#something irreversibly changed and it'll never be the same#super Sonic but he's a separate guy au#i guess?
