Science Saturday

There are a plethora of prominent examples of the mutual influence between the arts and sciences: Leonardo De Vinci, Albert Einstein, Maria Sibylla Merian, Hedy Lemarr, Geothe. The painter behind today’s Science Saturday offering, Abbott H. Thayer, did indeed make some lasting contributions to natural science, most notably on the role of countershading nature, sometimes referred to as Thayer’s Law, and on disruptive patterning. His writings on animal camouflage were influential in the development of tactical camouflage during World War I, urged on by Thayer himself.

Published in New York in 1909 by Macmillan, Concealing-Coloration in the Animal Kingdom: An Exposition of the Laws of Disguise Through Color and Pattern: Being a Summary of Abbott H. Thayer’s Discoveries was the culmination of Thayer’s work on the subject. Authorship is credited to Gerald H. Thayer, with his father Abbott H. Thayer’s contributing an introductory essay and many of the illustrations. The elder and younger Thayers collaborated extensively on the book, which was printed in New York at The Trow Press, with lithographs and half-tone prints by A. Hoen & Co. of Baltimore.

Despite the aforementioned lasting contributions, the book received scathing criticism from the scientific and naturalist community, including being roundly mocked by Theodore Roosevelt. While some of Thayer’s observations were sound, he insisted that every aspect of animal coloration was rooted in camouflage, a theory that lacked scientific rigor. Take the example of the flamingo (illustrated in the final image above): Thayer argues that their vibrant plumage is camouflage because, for a brief period during sunrise and sunset, the animals might appear to blend into the horizon when viewed by predators from below the water line. There is no attempt to explain how their bright pink hue might help them escape predation for the other 23 or so hours of the day.

Do you have any Banette facts? I'm planning on getting one, and I want to know as much as I can about them first.

Banette Facts

-The scientific name for Banette is "Invidia pupa" which translates to "Envy puppet"

-Shuppet evolve into Banette when they find a doll they really like and posses it. The emotions of jealousy combined with the abandoned doll give those Pokemon a hatred for the person that abandoned it, creating Banette

-Wild Banette don't need to eat, instead feeding on feelings of jealousy. However, tamed Banette will eat berries

-Banette's main appearance came from a very popular doll design that originated in 1940s Hoenn and spread across worldwide. While Banette can have other appearances, this is the most common

-Banette are very cuddly Pokemon qnd enjoy being picked up and hugged by their trainers

-Banette don't like their zipper being opened. Legend states that the reason why is that negative energy escapes from them when opened. The only time they open their zipper is to eat

-Banette have very erratic movements that are very hard to keep up with (headcanon from @professor-corvis )

(Art by limb92 on Deviantart)

-Banette are very affectionate when it comes to their trainers and people they care about

-Banette are commonly used in doll-bases horror movies. (My favorite one isn't really a movie but it's called Banette's Curse)

-Banette will often hide themselves in toy stores in hopes that someone will adopt them there

-They are often used in child therapy settings as a way to calm down the child

hawks likes long flights

he just puts on his old yellow headphones and sets his favourite playlist on

he melts into the music until... gets a text from "enji-bear"

«have a safe flight» it says

hawks breaks into a smile smirks and starts typing his answer

«it's my field yk»

«stop showing off and come home asap»

he glances at the screen with silent tenderness and doesn't respond drowning in fondness to his man

few seconds later he gets a new text

«i miss you»

about to start sobbing in this painfully rich plane he quickly responds

«I know I know and I miss you too enji

make sure to prepare a warm welcome to me! haha

can't wait to kiss you my baby bear»

he rises the volume and turns to the porthole
