Welcome to Robot Haus

When is this BS going to be finally cut out from feminist discourse.

Going along the same line of sentiment, you might as well start saying 'capitalism hurts billionaires too' in leftist conversations.

Following Fate

Every cell is destined to fulfil a certain role – its cell fate. How cell fates are determined partly depends on interactions between cells. Measuring this is challenging because cell fates develop gradually over time and space in tissues of different shapes and sizes. Here, a computational image analysis solution measures the properties of each cell relative to those of its neighbours, flattening a 3D image of a curved structure into 2D for easier analysis. Researchers tested this toolkit, including an algorithm dubbed PRINGLE (referencing the convex/concave planes of the early embryonic tissue under study, reminiscent of a famous crisp-in-a-tube), on microscopy images of mouse embryos labelled fluorescently with markers of different cell types (pictured). After treating the embryos with a chemical to alter cell fates, PRINGLE was able to reveal the consequences for individual cells. This toolkit has, therefore, proved powerful for capturing twists in fate in the life of a cell.

These synths, they think they have parents. Are you the parent?

Bilbo and Gollum. Bilbo is the moon for some reason which is cool i guess

Smeagol and Deagol. I love the seaweed in the background, great attention to detail

Frodo serving Robin Hood-realness at his and Bilbo’s birthday party. Literally iconic

Isildur taking the ring from Sauron. Its great but I would like to see more of Sauron than just his hand, because I think he has the potential to look really cool

Pippin jumping into the bath at Crickhollow… no comment

Bilbo gives the Mithril coat to Frodo. Great poses, very stiff and awkward. I like it.

The fellowship. This one is a classic.

Gandalf and the balrog. Amazing

Boromir trying to take the ring from Frodo. I love the way he reaches for his sword, it looks very natural

The battle of Helms Deep. This one is just great for a lot of reasons. I like how the orcs in the background are just happy and sad smileys. Gimli is throwing a rock at them. I don’t know who the guy with a red hat is in the background, but I love him.

Gandalf, Theoden, Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli finding Merry and Pippin in Isengard ft fucked up Shadowfax. Look at them smiling!

Sam, Frodo and Gollum. Frodo got rid of his Robin Hood hat which is a shame, but Gollum with a beak makes up for it.

Eowyn protecting Theoden from the Witch King. The fellbeast is a crow or perhaps a raven. Merry is hanging on the side, stabbing Witch King in the leg and he looks amazing

A Republican will borrow $20 BILLION for a vanity project before they spend $55 MILLION to protect citizens from lead in drinking water [that MI Republicans are responsible]
