Dance Of Development

Dance of Development

I enjoyed the fruit fly embryonic development video from this post so much, I decided to animate it. Grow, little alien … grow like the wind!!!

A few months back, a small twitter hashtag got kind of crazy - #overlyhonestmethods

Its a hashtag full of scientists admitting shortcuts in research, along with the daily face palms and annoyances of a scientific lifestyle. Science is hard, yo. 

I decided to steal some of the more popular tweets from the trending hashtag along with some random images of scientists from Google image search and combine them. This is the result. it works, I think.

Hey baby. If I woke up in your bed with a rubber duck and a spatula, would you let correlation imply causation?

It is necessary to engage in additional testing.

“‘Cause there’s an inverse relationship between respect and sects. I’m talking ‘bout religious sects like a Mormon sect, That says you can’t have sex with members of different sects, but you can’t have sex with members of the same sex. So if the sects can’t be different and the sex can’t be same, Then the only sex left is some left-hand shame.” - Bo Burnham

Societal expectations of sex don't make any sense

If dudes are expected to have a lot of sex

But ladies are expected to stay virgins until marriage

But homosexuality is bad

I’m really confused who dudes are supposed to be having all that sex with
