7 To 8 Days At The Soonest, But Im Projecting Closer To 2 Weeks. I Expect A Fully Functional Industrial
7 to 8 days at the soonest, but im projecting closer to 2 weeks. I expect a fully functional industrial civilization worshoping me by the end of the year.
so long as the evil bar eyes don't bring upon their downfall.
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.
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.
Actually No! You couldn't! Too much yeast in their containers, especially if you're keeping them in vials, will suffocate them! This is because the yeast produces CO2, and the flies are very very small. So you put in the nutrient sludge to feed the yeast that then feeds the yeast crawls. at my lab we put in 3 to 4 yeast granules onto the blue potato sludge.

So over the course of the last week of being the god of my wingless fruit fly civilization called Yeast Crawls i've learned something verrrry interesting about fruit flys and the different mutant strains. But first, let me tell you a bit about how you handle your flies.
You see, fruit flies are small. really small. So small you usually have to look at them under a microscope to really see anything about them. Unfortunately, fruit flies have this tendency to skitter arround and even fly off sometimes, which is not condusive to inspecting them under a microscope. So we use ether to knock them out. Simple solution, right?
Well as it turns out diffrent mutant fruit fly strains have diffrent resistances to ether.
I found this out after first handling the yeast crawls (apterous mutation) who are very receptive to ether. You just put them in a lil container with ether for about a minute and the fall asleep, and they will stay asleep for a solid 15 minutes. so I was expecting the flies of my other mutation (bar eyes) to also be easy to knock out.
I was wrong.
Turns out bar eye fruit flies have stupidly high resistance to ether. As in "put them in the etherlizer for 10+ minutes for them to finaly go down, take them out to put them under a microscope, they're already getting up and trying to fly away in 30 seconds" resistant to ether.
So yeah these lil flies with smaller, misshapened eyes are an absolute pain in my butt. JUST GO TO SLEEP ALREADY YOU NEAR SIGHTED NATTS.
Ok but I've found out what angry hedgehogs sound like irl because my brother took one in whose owner didn't want him anymore, and now all I can think about is Sonic seeing Eggman and just making the mose furiously pissed off motorcycle noises.
..... huh. I haven't posted any art in a while.
