What are you doing here?

Edited to add: Since a lot of people are reblogging this original post, I'm adding the updated version I did that incorporates the intersex circle...

Responses are needed in this short, 12 question from. Responding should only take a few minutes.

All questions assume that you have watched/read at least one sports anime or manga.

I'm gathering some data for a sample paper that I am writing to prove that I'm competent enough at it. The paper is looking at how (western) heteronormative standards of expecting romance in media collides with the innate dedication, respect, and rivalries found in sports anime and manga. And I figured some broad data from readers could only help!

Please fill it out and pass it around!

If, just as a concept, two dumbasses with poor impulse control, no time constraints and unlimited funds were driving across the country from New York to California, what kind of things would they stop along the way for?

I will go to any and all museums. I do not care. Tennis museum. Car museum. Modern art museum. Glass museum. Historical, literary, sporting, arts, science, all of them. There is a museum of industry in Baltimore that they had to chase me out of with a broom at closing time. The MSI in Chicago. The old Higgins Armony. The MoPop in Seattle. Every single building of the Smithsonian.

I will be going to THE AMERICAN PRECISION MUSEUM this July and I am unreasonably excited.

"Great! What do you recommend?"

Would you like to beta Steve-centric Steve/Tony works for the participants in our exchange? Unlike the main exchange, the beta list is open to all ages. It’s a good way to get a sneak peek at some of the works and connect with your fellow fans!

If you’d like to join the list, email us at [email protected] with the following information:

- Are you okay to beta explicit works? Please inform us if you are under 18.

- Do you have any other content you don’t wish to beta?

- What area(s) are you the strongest? (ex. spelling and grammar, characterization, finding plot holes, brainstorming, research, sex scenes, cheerreading etc.)

- Are you okay with us sharing your email?

- Where else can you be contacted?

Oh hey, it's Skype a Scientist again, here to fund science education projects with COOL ART.

Introducing SHRIMP CITY!

Look cool as hell in while talking about shrimp science with your friends.

For example: 🦐 Mantis Shrimp (who punch so fast they create pressure voids in the water that collapse to produce shockwaves, heat, and even a flash of light!) 🦐 Pistol Shrimp (Instead of a punch, pistol shrimp create their shockwaves using the snap of their claws!) 🦐 Hermit Crabs (who aren't "true" crabs, but Shrimp City is an inclusive town) 🦐Yeti Crabs (who live in Shrimp City's sister city, Hydrothermal Ventopolis, where they grow bacteria on their hairy arms that they lick off for a snack!) 🦐 Insects (who are not shrimps per se, but did you know recent research suggests that insects group with the crustaceans?? You may have heard that shrimps is bugs, but nay… bugs is shrimp).

These shirts were designed by Philly designer The 666 Cat!

What kind of science education are you funding by buying a shirt, you ask? Well, lots of stuff, but here's a recent example:

Here's a mural all about local biodiversity that we painted in collaboration with a Philly public elementary school with local artist NDA!

We got the kids from the school to help us paint it and everything! These projects are educational and cute as hell.
