LOOK AT THIS. ITS SO FUCKING CUTE. JUST. LOOK AT IT.

Makeship at it again with the adorable plushies designed by indi creators.

Ok so I'm taking a genetics class right now and in lab we've been given fruit flies with different mutations that we need to breed over the course of the semester.

Now, first thing I learned: fruit flies don't eat fruit. They eat yeast. They eat the yeast on fermenting fruit. They can not actually eat fruit. Their name is a lie.

Secondly, one of the two mutant lines I was given to cross are flies with the apterous mutation, aka they're wingless. I feel so bad for them, they can't do the one thing they're named for, they cant fly.

And then I realized. My fruit flies are in truth insects that eat yeast and can't fly.

Anyways, I've been calling them my yeast crawls and I am their god now.

Im sory but it only just slammed into me like a semi truck what combo you had @wirmageddon

Sepia and apterous. Wingless and black eyes.

For those of you not in the know, there are two things you look for when checking your asleep flies to see if they're just asleep or actually dead: you check if their wings are held close to their body or if they're pointed out and away, and you check their eyes because when they've been dead for a while their eyes turn black.

You had the nightmare combo of never knowing if your etherlized flies are alive or dead.

Oh thats a HORRIFYING addition.

Can you imagine how much yeast a cat sized yeast crawl would consume??? There would be absolutely no way they wouldn't just flat out break out in their desire for yeast, and then they'd find the local brewery and eat all of their brewer's yeast, and I live in a small university/bar city so the local government would definitely come for my head for daring to harm the beer production.

They wouldn't care about the fact that scientific horrors had been unleashed on the public tho, they'd only care about the beer.
