"Unraveling the Human Tapestry: Frank Hamel's 'Human Animals'—A Journey into the Complex Nature of Humanity"
Frank Hamel's "Human Animals" is a thought-provoking exploration of the intricate interplay between our human nature and the animal instincts that reside within us. This fascinating journey into the realms of biology, psychology, and societal constructs unfolds with a narrative precision that both challenges and enlightens. The title itself serves as a prelude to a comprehensive examination of the dualities that define our existence—a title that hints at the untamed aspects of our being, waiting to be unraveled.
Published in [Year], "Human Animals" is a testament to Hamel's keen intellectual curiosity and his ability to distill complex concepts into a narrative accessible to a broad audience. The title alludes to the central theme—the recognition that beneath our veneer of civilization, there exists a primal essence shared with our fellow creatures in the animal kingdom.
Hamel's exploration begins with a scientific lens, dissecting the biological similarities between humans and other animals. The opening chapters lay the groundwork for understanding our shared ancestry, evolutionary traits, and the genetic links that bind us to the broader animal kingdom. The title "Human Animals" becomes a guide through this scientific inquiry, inviting readers to reconsider their perception of human uniqueness.
Beyond the biological, Hamel delves into the psychological dimensions of our shared humanity. He navigates the complexities of human behavior, emotions, and social structures, drawing connections between our actions and those observed in the animal world. The title encapsulates this psychological journey, suggesting that within our societal constructs, there exist primal instincts that shape our behaviors.
Hamel's writing is not merely an academic discourse; it is a bridge between the scientific and the philosophical. The narrative is enriched by anecdotes, case studies, and historical examples that add a human touch to the exploration. The title serves as a thematic compass, signaling to readers that they are embarking on a nuanced exploration of what it means to be human, entwined with our animalistic roots.
As the book progresses, Hamel ventures into the ethical considerations surrounding our treatment of animals and the environmental impact of human activities. The title becomes a poignant reminder of the responsibility we bear as stewards of the planet, urging readers to reflect on the consequences of our actions on the delicate balance of the natural world.
"Human Animals" is not just an examination of our shared biological heritage; it is a call to introspection and societal self-reflection. Hamel challenges preconceived notions, inviting readers to confront uncomfortable truths about the intersections of humanity and animality. The title, with its enigmatic allure, guides readers through a labyrinth of ethical contemplation.
In conclusion, "Human Animals" by Frank Hamel is a captivating exploration that transcends disciplinary boundaries. The title encapsulates the essence of the book—a multifaceted exploration of the intricate connections between humanity and the animal kingdom. Hamel's prose is engaging, his ideas are profound, and the title acts as an evocative portal into the depths of our shared nature. As readers journey through the pages, "Human Animals" leaves an indelible impression, challenging us to peel back the layers of societal conditioning and reevaluate our place within the vast tapestry of the natural world.

From Me to You, 420 Million Years Apart...
Two fishes meet in the natal home of all life once more, separated by a journey and road four hundred and twenty million years in the making and ongoing still. What a blessing it is, that after so long, one can see itself in the eyes of the other and know them distant cousin… how tragic it is the other to not be able to see it also…

I do think it's interesting how when we're talking about Jewish indigneity, we're completely excluding the fact that Palestinians have always been indigenous to the region and share common ancestry with Jewish people, especially Sephardic Jews. After all, many Christian and Jewish people did convert to either Christianity or Islam, and we have plenty of historical records attesting to the fact that all of these communities have intermingled with each other. In fact, Palestinian Christians are one of the oldest Christian communities, dating back to the first century, whereas the Palestinian Samaritans had a consistent presence in Palestine since 500 B.C.
#Keep in mind that Samaritans are spread worldwide and have no right to return despite sharing common ancestry with#the jewish people

What I find really interesting is that Marcille has all these ideals of elven beauty and elven idea of what "masculinity" looks like (also her comment about how she thinks that tall-men playing elven characters clashes aesthetically in that little extra comic about going to the theatre with Falin) but she didn't grow up among elves? Beside her mom people around her in her childhood were tall-men
And then she was a researcher at tallmen-gnome academy
I wonder if this is her way to connect with her elven side.
Unfortunately beauty standards don't always make sense. Speaking from experience as an older person from Brazil I still remember when my senses of beauty where mostly based off white people, cause that's what was presented to me as beautiful. It was only after I grew older and started seeing more diversity labeled as beautiful too that I realized the beauty in my own traits. External influences might convince you the people around you aren't the "ideal"
Marcille probably was influenced by her mom and by her ancestry, I still remember kids in school being sad their parents/grandparents had blue eyes but they got "lame dark eyes" even tho that's whats the most common here. So she probably has idealized her Elf ancestry when it comes to aesthetics since even Tallmen in some areas idealize elves. I think it might be the same/similar for Thistle.
About how she cringed at the tallmen playing elves I've unfortunately felt that way before, when I was a kid I would cringe at seeing other brazilians cosplaying light-skinned characters (mostly as self shame tbh) but I got better✌️Marcille still needs to mature.
I'm talking about this with the lenses of my own experience but I just wanted to say that your aesthetic taste can be influenced by the "first world" even if you live surrounded by beautiful people that don't match it.
And on a side note I love that we have more representation nowadays, when I was a kid I remember latching onto to every single darker skinned character I saw in cartoons cause they looked like me lmao.
#dungeon meshi spoilers#I am also half-half like marcille but I don't really care about my ancestry outside brazil#I just wanted to share my perspective cause I thought it would be relevant? Hope it didn't come off wrong#Nowadays I'm a fan of black cosplay of anime characters btw they're amazing#Ask#anonymous#dunmeshi thoughts#Marcille Donato

VARIAN THE WEB RIPPER • drow • sage • red draconic sorcerer • traitor to lolth
(A CURSE, UTTERED BY DIVINE LIPS)
Never again you will know the comfort of my presence in the darkness, your eyes will bleed away the sweetness of my gift until only shadows remain. I mark you as a betrayer, unclean and unwanted, undeserving of any touch of purity. Run now, little rat, hide in the sun while you can, covered in soot and contempt but know this: I will make sure all my children know your heresy. They will find you and bring you back in my embrace, where your punishment awaits.
#bg3edit#tavedit#bg3#baldur's gate 3#gamingedit#varian the heretic#i put the caption together in 5 min and it sucks#and i know he really looks like Just A Guy#but he basically abandoned the cult of lolth in the name of his unsatiable thirst of knowledge#to reach the surface and learn more and more about magic and his draconic ancestry#(him and gale bonds over their shared hubris basically)#and to pay him back lolth is slowly stripping him of his vision hence his pale pink eyes where once was red#and dark hair instead of white#so the other drows basically know to attack on sight

Mr. Man on his own without the cyan filter.
And also the symbol I threw together that's meant to represent...something. Alls I'll say now is that it's meant to vaguely have a similar silhouette to the phoenix that represents the College of Restoration cause any more information will likely be influenced by what TES VI brings to the table.
#elder scrolls#skyrim#my characters#breton#side note i love how very Snow Elf coded his abilities are (ice and light themed magic)#even though he has no Falmer ancestry at all#kinda repeated the improbable elven association with this but with Maormer instead#one other tidbit I'll share now is that it's specifically meant to invoke an arctic sea but maybe not that well so lol

About Amy's family, how do you feel about Amy being part echidna? Since nobody knows who her parents are and with Amy super strenght and downward quills it's a popular headcanon. It would also be very cute, Knuckles and Amy are kind of like siblings making her part echidna it could mean they could be related somehow, maybe distant cousins. What do you think?
i love this theory! i think it's super interesting and also raises some interesting questions about what happened to the echidnas, are there any others living in hiding on the surface, and what this means in terms of amy and knuckles as relatives...
personally i do think they're related!! the easy answer is 'duh they're red and pink think about it' but my answer as a jewish person who has worked with elders tracking down family trees across generations? they're related, but it's distant enough to where if they Were to somehow have their relatives all lined up in a neatly organized tree neither of them would know who tf the other is talking about until they find a shared ancestral branch from like 300 years ago LOL
but also i dont think either of amy's parents are fully echidnas... her quills and fur color are probably something that's been passed down.
#headcanon#edit: i brought up being jewish here because its a very common occurrence given the history of#our communities in eastern europe to find out another jewish person with ancestry from the same country has a shared relative somewhere#and angel island isnt exactly the biggest place on the planet yknow

okay but just to put it out there
to anyone that has an oc that’s related to archemorus and/or viktor:
orion is VERY excited that he has family somewhere out in the mists and would absolutely have a field day chattering with y’all’s ocs about luxon/kurzick history and culture
#i say this as if there’s like a Lot of people with ocs like this but SHHHHH I HAVE TO BELIEVE THERES MORE OF US OUT THERE#but no yes orion would always be delighted to meet anyone else that he shares ancestry with!!!#honestly he’d just be excited to meet other revs that channel those two even without any relation to them lmao#but he’d be particularly excited to meet anyone else that’s also related to them. fambly……#OC: Orion

My new least favourite phrase is ‘indigenous Scottish people’ and yet the people who use it are always so well-meaning and not intentionally using it in that horrid blood and soil ethno-nationalist way, it’s just awkward
#Define an indigenous Scottish person#And even if you can find one I am willing to bet that they don't differ all that much from the English biologically#I know it can be hard to understand but the reason that a lot of Scots feel they are a separate *nation*#is not because they were oppressed wholesale for being a different race or because they have one distinct ethnicity#(though certainly sometimes racist rhetoric has been used)#But because we have been thinking of ourselves as a nation in some form or another for at least seven hundred years#And because we were a separate state (made up of several 'nations' in the earlier mediaeval sense of the word) for near500 years before that#It has a lot less to do with a common genetic ancestry or even a shared language or fixed culture#And a lot more to do with the Concept of Scotland TM which has existed for centuries#Even back when the country was a lot more linguistically and culturally diverse even than it is now#The idea of Scotland if you will which was a reality for over 800 years#And so after only three hundred years of union and a stunning lack of progress in building a single 'British' identity#Scotland still lingers#Thoughts on the Thistle

People act like anyone with the same last name means it’s incest
#just because they’re part of the same clan or whatever doesn’t mean they’re actually related!#they just have shared ancestry#it’s not synonymous!#like in throne of glass or whatever shit#the main pair share an ansector that doesn’t mean their related ffs
