This is one of my current favorite things
so uhhhhhh i know this is a plant blog but realtalk lads im a little freaked out by that wild ass new organ discovered in our bodies according to a paper published literally yesterday am i right my lads, my bois, lmao hhaha
(as of 3/28/2018, paper was published in the reputable international research journal âNatureâ on 3/27/2018, publication here, study was started in 2013) ok so like uhhh this is my rough translation of the paper they published using my current level of biological knowledge, if anyone else has a more in depth understanding with human anatomy things and would like to add on with anything i might have missed feel free to add but this is my takeaway:Â
-scientists were looking at some stuff in the inside of a bile duct they were studying in a live patient (this will be important later) using a laser that lets them see the cells in real time. they injected some stuff into the duct and saw the spaces inbetween the cells fill up with fluid in strange, tube-like structures that didnât correspond with what they expected to be there, so they sectioned and froze them to study them closer; they realized that upon closer inspection, the fluid-filled places were VERY small collagen tubes forming a complex matrix of bundles surrounded by a weird cell covering that seemed to connect them to one another. they called this the Interstitium.Â
-they sectioned some more places where squeezy things might happen, like the inner linings of the bladder, lungs, lymph nodes, and the soft tissue enclosing our muscles, filled them with the same indicator, and hyper froze them like they did to the first sample and found the same weird matrix of fluid-filled tubing:
they concluded from what they found from this that:Â
1. our previous thought of the space inbetween the cells in these parts of the body, which we thought were just kinda like, there or whatever doing nothing (a series of spaces that were already called the Interstitium that were largely ignored), are actually full of complex tubing running through a ton of very important parts of your body
2. when the structures theyâre chilling around (like your bladder and bowel) contract, the fluid moves around all weird
3. the reason this wasnât discovered before is because when the tubes are squished too hard- like when scientists are cutting into them- they have a tendency to collapse really easily, especially when being treated with chemicals for microscope use, giving the impression of the kind of tissues that weâve traditionally seen in specimens and thought of being in these sensitive areas (closely compact and dense cell mats). it turns out that in living people, these tubes run between the cells carrying fluid; the scientists were able to see this initially in live patients using the above mentioned laser technology, and then took live biopsies by quickly freezing the cells in place before removal to prevent their collapse.
4. yes, these can move cancer cells around, which is HUGE seeing as they seem to enclose a LOT of important and delicate muscles in our bodies in one giant, complex system. when they looked at it in cancer patients, the tumors they found seemed to kind of beâŚ.leakingâŚ.into themâŚ..because the tumors were putting pressure on the fluid tubesâŚ.which easily collapseâŚ..and move things that fall into the fluid aroundâŚ.
5. the scientists also explored things like hernias and colon damage in relation to these, but unfortunately this is where my translation powers run out as non-plant-related terminology starts being used lmao im so sorry im like this
tl;dr: the membranes that surround some really important parts of squishy things like our stomach, bowels, colon, lungs, muscles, etc are full of very delicate and complex tubing that runs in a weirdly complex system to other important squishy things throughout our bodies and looks like a weird organ that we didnât know was there before (or like, we knew about it, we just didnât know it was soâŚconnected and uhâŚorgany). also it seems to have an impact on the spread of cancer throughout these regions
hereâs the paper again if you want to have a read and see pics of the tubing itself and draw more in depth conclusions from it lmaoÂ
Graduate of Biomedical Science here; this paper is pretty much understandable to me.
Youâve picked out the main stuff, but hereâs some things I think is very interesting:
The discovery of these spaces dramatically expands the lymphatic system. Basically, this is how the lymph nodes are connected to the rest of the body. Before it was kinda like âyeah here are the lymph nodes, and the lymph fluid kinda goes to the somehow? idkâ. But now we have a whole system. Itâs like discovering the entire circulatory system when before you only had the heart to work with.
This is super important for cancers and detecting when a cancer has spread (metastasised, in the lingo). They talk about the spread of cancers into the deeper tissues (such as stomach cancers invading their submucosal tissue and skin cancers pentrating deeper into the dermis layers), but what is most important is that they detected the cancers spreading into the interstitial spaces before there was anything to detect within the lymph nodes. This is super important, as usually lymph node biopsies are done to detect if a cancer is spreading; this is before that very stage. This is literally catching cancers in the act of spreading before theyâve hit another organ this is fucking incredible.
Itâs providing an explanation for oedema (or edema, for my US followers), which is the build-up of fluid in certain areas of the body (usually the lower limbs, but it can be anywhere). For so long itâs been like âI guess thereâs something wrong with your blood vessels??â but like the lymphatic system, weâve now got another explanation. âAh, okay, thereâs something going down in your interstitial fluid!â A more effective diagnosis and treatment could be made, Bam! Enrich more peopleâs lives.
They may play a role in how scar formation works. Some scar tissue can get a bit crazy and grow too much, meaning it needs to be cut away as it hinders movement or it just fucking painful. Perhaps the interstitial tubing/fluid plays a role in this, considering collagen is used in scar tissue, and these spaces are full of it.
Thereâs clearly communication between these spaces and the digestive system, as they found tattoo pigment from the intestines in these spaces. Tattooing in the intestine is done to mark lesions for removal or observation later on, so the fact this pigment is actively moving out of the digestive system and else means it could play a role in disease we donât know much about, like inflammatory bowel conditions.
Basically, THIS IS FUCKING HUGE AND COULD POTENTIALLY CHANGE THE GAME IN A BIG WAY.
Thank you OP for sharing this, I havenât nerded out and been so fascinated by a study in a long time.

Fun fact: Cheetahs only attack prey that runs
jesus that is good to know.
Yup, thatâs the point you just stay still and let it do whatever the fuck it wants that doesnât involved you getting eaten.Â
REALLY FUN FACT for big cats cheetahs are fucking docile as shit
my grandfather ran a cheetah sanctuary in south africa and heâd just lie with them and sleep among them and theyâd rub against him and chirp at him theyâre big fucking babies
Another Fun Fact: Cheetahs are incredibly nervous animals. One of the (many) reasonâs theyâre going extinct is that cheetahs are so sensitive and nervous, some of them are literally too nervous to breed. Others will breed, but stress themselves out so much, theyâll lose their cubs. So zoos with breeding programs had to figure out how to make cheetahs comfortable enough to first of all, get laid and secondly - not spazz themselves into miscarrying. So whatâd they do? They gave the cheetahâs their very own Service Dogs! The dogs make them feel safe, protected and secure!
AJHHHHFDDGHH SO PRECIOUS
this post just got so much better
THIS IS OFFICIALLY MY FAVOURITE POST
this is emmett and cullen they are best friends
This is the greatest thing Iâve seen all day.
Dogs are truly angels.
On Being Fifteen
I remember fifteen.
I was fifteen when I had my first kiss. He was a friend, Iâd known him to some degree for three years. That year, though, we flirted in science class. We had study break before mock exams and he asked me to help him study.
Now, Iâd always been the smart girl. Guys asked me to check their spelling, they didnât ask me to the movies. Always the friend, never the girlfriend. And I felt like a freak - the only one of my friends whoâd never been kissed. At fifteen I knew guys were starting to find me attractive ⌠but that didnât seem enough. They flirted with me, sure, but they never pursued me.
Until this guy. Cause it turned out, the only thing he wanted to study was the back of my throat.
He knew Iâd never kissed anyone before. That didnât stop him from trying to stick his hands down my pants.
And I went home feeling guilty. Guilty that Iâd refused to have sex with him. Guilty that heâd wanted me and Iâd disappointed him. When youâre fifteen and someone finally notices you, you want more than anything to make them happy. Even if itâs at the expense of your own happiness.
See, I didnât want this guy to be my boyfriend. He was way too into sports and I didnât like his friends and he flat out wasnât interesting enough for me to want to date him. But he was funny, he was popular, and he wanted me. I canât stress how intoxicating it is when youâve never felt wanted before ⌠youâll do anything to hold onto that. Anything.
So add to that that this guy is older, heâs known in the youtube community, you have his songs on your iPod, you never thought heâd ever talk to you ⌠let alone want you. You donât want to seem like some stupid little girl who doesnât know what sheâs doing, do you? You donât want to let him down. After all, youâre special. He picked you.
If I could go back to fifteen, Iâd tell myself that there is no lonelier place than the arms of someone who doesnât love you. But I doubt fifteen year old me would have listened.
Because being wanted is a drug I wasnât strong enough to fight.
And these girls should never have had to.
It wasnât their fault.
I wanted to write a long post about everything but I canât yet so I wrote a poem.

I`m glad when Charlie announced his girlfriend it went over better then when mike lombardo announced his girlfriends
Itâs so not funny, that itâs kind of funny...
Recent events have given me the confidence to share this very personal story about my life from the ages of 19 to 21.
Mike Lombardo is an expert manipulator. When I met him, I had incredibly high self-esteem, and he found a way to whittle it down to nothing. It was subtle at firstâheâd challenge or correct me on things I said in group conversations in front of our mutual friends, or heâd explain to me why jokes in movies were funny, as if I were incapable of understanding on my own. Over time, it got bigger. He would immediately shoot down my ideas or suggestions as being immature or unhelpful, and a week later he pretended he had come up with the same idea on his own, insisting that I was making it all up in my head when I called him out for it. He would tell embarrassing or private things about me to groups of people, right in front of me, forcing me to choose between pretending I didnât care or looking dramatic. He would literally copy and paste different parts of our text message conversations together to make it look like I had said something adorably stupid, and he would post those online, and I would laugh it off because I didnât want to look crazy by causing a scene. Every time I said something funny to him, he would stare stoically ahead and refuse to laugh⌠and then tweet my joke as his own a few days later. After enough instances of him self-promoting himself to other people in the YouTube community while completely ignoring the fact that I was standing next to him, and making no effort to introduce me or involve me in any way, I somehow came to the conclusion that I should sacrifice my own internet presence and become âhis girlfriendâ rather than an individual person.
Very early on in our relationship, he asked me to lose weight. I didnât have considerable extra weight on me, for one thingâ but more importantly, I had never had any desire to be thinner. I guess I assumed that, because I was a strong person who didnât let other people influence my decisions, it wouldnât hurt to take his advice if I did it on my own terms. He asked me to text him how much weight I had lost each day, to keep me accountable, and I dropped 25 pounds quickly. My best friend had recently moved away, and when I saw her for the first time in a few months, she told me repeatedly that I was âso skinny, so so skinny.â She said it like an observation, not like a compliment. The next time I saw Mike, he was texting (as per usual) as I got into his car. When he finally looked up at me, he said in a flat, disinterested voice, âYou look thin.â I said, âYeah.â Despite the fact that I had done it to appease him, he never mentioned my weight loss again. Oh, except for one time when we were clothes shopping, when he told me to buy a pair of shorts in a size smaller than the ones that fit me. So that they could be aspirational. (I bought them, but donât worry; I later threw them on a bon fire.)
On the few occasions that I expressed to him that I was mad or upset about something heâd done, he twisted my words over and over until he convinced me that I was being immature, needy, and irrational. He would preach to me in long monologues about how unfair it was that I would put this stress on him when he already had so much else to worry about. He would do this until I apologized to him for having thought I was angryâ when really, I was just being silly and childish.
I never felt physically threatened by him, other than maybe one time. I was staying at his parentsâ house one week, and I was a ball of energy because he was much more sedentary than I was. I suggested that we wrestle each other, just being dumb, and he said he didnât feel like it. The next evening, when I was tired and winding down for the day, he came up behind me and scooped me over his shoulder. I told him that I wasnât in the mood to roughhouse, and he said, âYou were the one who wanted to wrestle. Letâs do it.â I laughed for a few seconds and tried to push his grip off me, but when it became apparent that he wasnât going to put me down, I got a little more stern and told him again that I wasnât in the mood for it. He continued to carry me around his house, throw me on the couch, and hold me downâall while I protested and asked him to leave me alone. At one point, while he was holding both my arms still with one of his hands, I looked into his eyes and tried as hard as I could to communicate with my face that I seriously wanted him to stop touching me. When he didnât get that message, I stopped talking, went basically limp, and let him piggyback me around for a few more minutes until he got bored and put me down. I know that this same scenario could happen with someone who wasnât a sociopath, so Iâve always written off its ability to be used as evidence that he mistreated me, but I did feel really scared in those few seconds when I realized he had absolutely no ability to read my facial cues. And even if he could tell that I wasnât joking, he didnât take my No and my Stop seriously, and that freaked me out.
I became such an emotional slave to him that when he decided we should âbreak upâ one dayânot after a fight, not after a long time of not seeing each other, just without any warning whatsoeverâI agreed. A few days later, our conversations returned to normal, and he told me he loved me constantly. He suggested that our relationship stay the same as it had always been, but that we keep it private (keeping in mind, of course, that the public aspects of our relationship had always been 100% his idea), and my self-esteem was so diminished that I didnât see the problem with being his secret. He would talk and write about the end of our relationship online, and I was too exhausted to even care.
He devoted a lot of time and effort to making the idea of him cheating on me seem insane and impossible. He would regularly reminded meâverballyâ that he was a great boyfriend, and he bought me so many things that I knew he couldnât afford. If I asked why he was carrying on twenty different text message conversations with strangers from YouTube when he should have been spending time with me, he reminded me of the last present heâd bought. I told him several times that while I trusted that his relationships with teenage girls were platonic and respectful, he should be incredibly careful so that none of them got the wrong idea about his intentions. He laughed that off as being ridiculous. I asked him one time only if heâd ever even considered being unfaithful to me, emotionally or physically, and he spat back that it was ridiculous that I âkeptâ asking him that. According to him, the fact that I would be so untrusting was a sign that I was too immature for an adult relationship.
Other things happened between us that I donât feel comfortable divulging, but I will say that he had such an unhealthy and confusing attitude towards sex that I believe every word of what heâs been accused of doing. I believe that there are hundreds of other horrifying details that the public doesnât know about. For a full year after he was arrested, I got physically sick on a daily basis. I spontaneously vomited in a park one afternoon, and I broke blood vessels in my face from privately sobbing in my car. The fact that he was able to manipulate and abuse me so intensely when I was an experienced, confident adult makes me heartsick to think of him doing the same things to much younger girls. Girls who looked up to him, girls who thought he was validating them, girls who wanted to feel sexy and respected and like they were unique in being good enough for him. The fact that he knew his actions were illegal makes it so much worse, because it shows just how little actual respect he had for his victims. His actions were not the result of his being misunderstood or depressed or underdeveloped or whatever other excuses Iâve heard. He is an abuser. He abused me, he abused many other people, and heâs done irreparable damage in many peopleâs lives.
Hayleyâs story
âA few months later, it got out that Mike had been doing the same thing he did to me to other girls for a very long time, and the FBI got involved. As they were going through texts on his phone after they had confiscated it, they happened to find me. The FBI came to my house, questioned me about the situation, told me that thousands upon thousands of inappropriate pictures and videos of minors had been found on his phone and computer, and they were working on getting as many counts against him as they could before they could arrest him.â
Full original post:
whatpeaceinsilence
âSo, a lot of you are aware about recent happenings in the YouTube community latelyâquite popular, well-respected people have been discovered to be partaking in extremely inappropriate, awful behavior. Lots of people have been coming out about their experiences with this sort of thing, which is great. The openness is great. Victims need to know that they are not alone and they are not to blame. Iâve kept quiet about this, because at first I didnât feel like it was necessary to tell anyone about, but now I definitely do.
When I was fifteen, I was a fan of Mike Lombardo (a YouTube musician a couple years ago). Well, âfanâ is generous. I knew he was popular within my friend group and the community I was apart of, so due to that, I respected him immensely. He approached me through Twitter one day and I was ecstatic; I couldnât believe this guy was talking to somebody like me, and I felt honored, special. We just talked a bit at first, but eventually he DMâd me, asking for my number. Of course I gave it to him. Saying no didnât even cross my mind, despite the fact that I was fifteen, he knew it, and he was in his early twenties. I wanted him to think I was cool.
He texted me and was immediately inappropriate. I only have a few of the messages word for word (the original texts have been deleted, but I have some of them still because I sent them to someone through Skype chat). Hereâs one of the first: âWell, Iâve actually been creeping on your videos occasionally for a few months. Is it totally threatening and creepy for me to find you attractive? Iâm a very young 23 btw.â
He talked about how his girlfriend who he had recently broken up with also lived in Ohio and said that it was âonly an eight hour drive,â hugely suggesting that heâd come visit me.
And then this, a comment made entirely out of nowhere (I remember that he kept trying to bring the conversation back to sexâflirty at first but then eventually really aggressive): âForeplay is totally more fun than sex. Thatâs a secret.â
And then this: âI used to watch you and I was like, ok sheâs like 18 or 19. And youâre not. But you âare,â how smart you are, how you talk, how you look, how you think. Iâm really into it. Something about being really young and really smart is super sexy to me. I have this overwhelming urge to talk naughty to you. But I know I shouldnât. Maybe youâll like it and if you eventually got used to it we could have fun. Iâm good with words. Iâm a songwriter.â
           I wish I could remember exactly what I said. I remember feeling the strangest combination of flattered and absolutely disgusting. I looked up to and respected this guy, and here he was, calling me sexy. I donât remember what I replied, but I do remember, like I said, constantly attempting to steer the conversation away from sex, but thatâs all he wanted to talk about. He asked me for nude pictures, said heâd send me some of his, kept trying to get me to sext him. I never did. I kept giving him chance after chance. Our contact like this went on for a couple weeks, but finally I told him that I didnât want to talk to him anymore. I told him that it felt wrong and I was not comfortable with it. I think I said it with a bit more punch behind it; I remember eventually becoming really angry about the whole situation and I just wanted him to go away. After I said that, he became extremely cross with me, insulted me, and made me feel entirely to blame for the situation. He was patronizing and made me feel like an idiot. I ignored him for a few days, while he continued to text me. He would apologize for a day, and then the next day, he would try to make me feel guilty again.
           After a few days of this, I had somehow convinced myself that what he did wasnât so bad. I started to do exactly what he wanted; I felt guilty and like I had been too hard on him, so I sent him a text apologizing. I remember that I had said something along the lines of âIâm sorry if I was a dick to you, and Iâd still like to be friends.â Mike was not interested in the âfriendsâ thing. He again became angry, excused me away shortly and bluntly, and I never heard from him again.
           A few months later, it got out that Mike had been doing the same thing he did to me to other girls for a very long time, and the FBI got involved. As they were going through texts on his phone after they had confiscated it, they happened to find me. The FBI came to my house, questioned me about the situation, told me that thousands upon thousands of inappropriate pictures and videos of minors had been found on his phone and computer, and they were working on getting as many counts against him as they could before they could arrest him. The agents told me I had done the right thing by not sending him pictures and telling him he was being inappropriate.
           I didnât feel at all like I did the right thing. I felt absolutely sick. That day, I felt more horrible than I ever had before. I felt guilty. I felt like an idiot for not telling anyone about what happened, and I kept thinking over and over about how if I had told someone, other girls wouldnât have been abused by him. I felt like the other girlsâ suffering was entirely my fault.
           The agents took my phone, saying that they wanted to be sure they recovered all of the texts. For some reason, I was nervous about what theyâd find, even though I knew I did nothing wrong. My stomach was in knots until I got it back a couple days later.
           I donât know, I just thought Iâd add my story to the conversation. I donât feel like a victim. Iâve moved passed it, although at the time, the situation caused me a ridiculous amount of anxiety and guilt. Anyone can be a victim, and anyone can be an abuser. I really encourage people to continue sharing their stories. Donât worry about anyoneâs reputation. Abuse is abuse.â

âMike Lombardo: July 2012
Formerly signed to DFTBA Records, Mike Lombardo is a musician with more than 200,000 subscribers on YouTube. He was arrested in July 2012, after a prolonged federal investigation resulted in charges of encouraging minors to send him explicit photos and videos of themselves masturbating. According to popular vlogger Savannah Brown, who later wrote a Tumblr post and made a video about it, the FBI found âthousands upon thousands of inappropriate pictures and videos of minorsâ on his phone and computer, and âthey were working on getting as many counts against him as they could before they could arrest him.â
It marked perhaps the first time that Vlogbrothers and DFTBA founders John and Hank Green spoke out against a creator who sexually abused fans; they removed his music from DFTBA Records, and thanked the their fans, the Nerdfighter community, for having thoughtful discussions on the matter.
Lombardo eventually pled guilty to receiving child pornography and was sentenced to the mandatory minimum of five years in prison earlier this year. Once heâs released, heâll have to register as a convicted sex offender and serve five yearsâ probation.â

Yeah sex is cool but have you ever spent an hour looking for a song that you only remember one lyric from and then finally finding it
