But Hardwick wasn't to be thrown off. "You must admit, Mister Simnel, that the train is inherently dangerous? Some people have said that your face melts if you reach speeds greater than thirty miles per hour!"
It seemed to Moist that everyone else who had been chattering away in the vicinity went silent to listen as one person, and he knew that if he intervened at this point things would get worse, and so all he could do was hold his breath, just like everybody else, to see what the solemn country boy would say.
"Well now, Mister 'ardwick," said Simnel, sticking his thumbs into his belt as he always did when broaching long sentences. "I think many things are inherently dangerous: such as wizards and trees. Dangerous things, trees, they could fall down and drop straight on your 'ead without you knowing it. And boats are dangerous an' all, and other people might be dangerous and you, Mister 'ardwick, you've been talking to me for five minutes now, 'oping that a country lad like me might be tempted into saying summat I shouldn't.
"So I'll tell you this: Iron Girder is my machine, I made her, every single bit of her. I tested her and every time I find a way to make her better and safer, I do it. But, oh aye, you, Mister 'ardwick, you might be dangerous! Power is dangerous, all power, yours included, Mister 'ardwick, and the difference is that the power of Iron Girder is controllable, whereas you can write whatever you damn well like. Do you think I don't read? I've read the rubbish you spout in your paper and, Mister 'ardwick, a lot of what you write is flamin' gristle, Mister 'ardwick, total stinking made-up gristle, meant to frighten people who don't know owt about steam and power and the cosines and the quaderatics and tangents and even the sliding rule... but I hope you enjoy your journey anyway, Mister 'ardwick. Now, if you don't mind, I've got to get in t'cab. Oh, and I've had Iron Girder up to more than thirty mile an hour and all I got were sunburn. Good day to you, Mister 'ardwick. Enjoy your ride."
Raising Steam by Terry Pratchett

I’ve been really busy with this burglar murder stolen valor fraud on socials. It’s a long story but, a youtube clout chasing accused murderer has been blessed by the YouTube algorithm.
Turns out, this youtube channel has been accused of, murder, stolen valor, burglary, credit card theft and criticizes dudes with misdemeanors online.
It’s a deep rabbit hole full of wtf?
Cyrax, delete lawz, kind of lolcow. It’s fascinated the hell out of me. This video brings you up to speed. A career criminal who has convinced the World Wide Web that he’s a war hero.
In order to gain financial benefit.

Imagine being the loser ass tool, Yisha Raziel, who made a deepfake of Bella Hadid saying she supports Israel. 🤮
If you’re reading this, I am telling you right now, you better second and third guess what you see and hear on social media and the news. Stick to reliable news sources. Vet them. Require multiple, trusted sources. Validate links to sources. In the last several months, I’ve seen the deepfake of President Nixon talking about the failed NASA mission that never happened. I’ve seen a deepfake of Joe Biden hilariously using profanity to trash talk Trump - Biden’s deepfake, however, was made to be intentionally obvious that it wasn’t his words, or something he would actually say.
But imagine a viral deepfake video of Biden announcing a nuclear strike on Russia within the next 20 minutes? Or a deepfake of Biden reintroducing the draft to support Israel? Or a deepfake of Biden withdrawing from the 2024 election and endorsing Trump…
These kinds of things are going to begin happening a lot more, especially with the proliferation of troll farms, and especially since YouTube, Twitter (I refuse to call it X), and Facebook have all eviscerated their verification and factcheck teams that used to at least attempt to limit disinformation and misinformation.
Pay attention, peeps.
Don’t get bamboozled.

Welcome to the Zine O’Biology
A multi-fandom Star Trek Zine.
Do you have strong opinions on Vulcan fra’als, Cardassian tails, or how the heck Trill symbionts reproduce? We want to hear from you!
The Zine O’Biology is a fictional comparative xenobiology academic journal set in the Star Trek universe. If you’ve always wanted to wax eloquent for up to 3000 words about your theories on alien biology, welcome to your new home!
We want all your theories about all your favorite aliens! This is a friendly but competitive academic journal where the content of every paper is a little bit suspicious (is this paper based on rumor or fact? What is the methodology?) and some competing authors leave snarky comments on one another’s work. So just like a real academic journal, except ours features the Great Green Anthurium.
We welcome xenobiology articles on all Star Trek aliens from all series!
The final format will be a PDF that you can scroll at your leisure or print at home in order to have a physical copy of the Zine. (This way there is no money involved.)
--SEEKING SUBMISSIONS FOR--
Alien biology articles
Alien biology artwork
In-Universe advertisements
Letters to the editor
ALIEN BIOLOGY ARTICLES
How do Andorian genders work? Are Cardassians actually lizards? Why do Klingons have so many redundant organs? What’s the biological purpose of Bajoran nose ridges? What’s the best cement mix for emergency surgery on a Horta?
You’ve been pondering alien biology for years. This is your chance to infodump all your favorite theories to an eager audience of your fellow nerds!
Articles will be separated into two categories: reproductive biology or general biology. Yes, we also want all your theories on what every species is packing downstairs…and how they use it.
Journal articles should be fun and engaging, but also written in your interpretation of a pseudo-academic style, since this is a highly respected Federation xenobiology journal. If you want to keep things more lighthearted and less academic, check out the section on Letters to the Editor.
ALIEN BIOLOGY ARTWORK
If you have independent illustrations about alien biology we would love to see them! If you would like to provide illustrations for one of our journal articles, tell us what species you want to illustrate and we’ll do our best to match you up!
Art should be in a square, scaleable format, printable at high resolution at 4x4 inches.
JOURNAL ADVERTISEMENTS
Even in a post-need future, academic journals will need a little extra funding. Submit your ads for Ferengi Oomox Creme, Self Sealing Stem Bolts, Gently Used Federation Technology, and, of course, “reproductive aids.” The weirder the better! Have fun with it!
All art needs to be printable at high resolution
Ad Sizes:
1 column (vertical) 3.5 x 7
half page (horizontal) 8 x 5
banner (narrow horizontal) 8 x 2
in-text (square) 3.5 x 3.5 scaleable
in-text (half-square) 3.5 x 1.75
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Do you have a great idea, but it’s not enough to fill out a 3000 word article? Submit it as a “reaction” to a previous journal article. Feel free to lay into a mythical researcher who does NOT understand why their biological theory is wrong and yours is right!
Max length 800 words. Enjoy making these plenty frothy!
WE NEED SUB-EDITORS!
The creators of this Zine are all notorious Vulcan Fuckers. Since we want the Zine O’Biology to be open to all alien species, it is only logical that we seek your expertise.
We’re seeking fans from all over the Star Trek universe to spread the word that yes, it’s time for us to all come together in the spirit of explaining how our favorite aliens come together.
Sub-Editors will be in charge of helping us solicit articles and art for their specific race of aliens and editing those articles in order to fit into the Zine. If we don’t have a sub editor for a species, we’ll do our best, but the chapter on that species won’t be as good as it would be if folks with real fanon knowledge were involved.
WANT TO GET INVOLVED, BUT YOU’RE NOT A WRITER OR ARTIST?
WE NEED:
Graphic designers to help with Zine layout
Social media promoters
Alien art and article wranglers (ie: get your fannish friends involved!)
--HOW TO GET INVOLVED--
Fill out the Art or Writing Google Form letting us know your interests or reach out to the Editor in Chief at [email protected]
DEADLINES:
August 1, 2024: Last date for everyone seeking an art or writing partner to submit their request. We don’t guarantee you’ll be partnered up. It depends on how many people are interested and what aliens they want to draw/write.
August 18, 2024: Art/Writing partners notified. NOTE: it’s both fine and encouraged if you want to submit as a team from the start! This is for people who do not have a partner and would like us to find them one.
August 30, 2024: Final call for all journal authors, artists, and advertisers to let us know what species they’re working with, how many submissions they plan to send, and whether their submission will be general or reproductive biology.
October 20, 2024: All art, advertising, and journal submissions are due
We hope to have the Zine O’Biology ready for your enjoyment by New Year’s Eve 2024. We all have full time jobs and lives, so that date may change depending on the volume of submissions.
FAQ
What if my biological theories are totally different from another author’s?
Yes. Perfect. We love it.
We want to see everyone’s theories! Canon gave us scraps, but together we will make a meal! Expect to see many mutually contradictory articles. That’s part of the fun!
What about Smut?
Yes, we are accepting E rated submissions! The journal will be separated into two sections:
General Biology
Reproductive Biology
General Biology is everything but the genitals
Reproductive Biology should include actual descriptions of the mechanics and biology. Think of it as creating reference material for smut writers and artists.

In times of war and tragedy, it is easier than ever to fall into the trap of clickbait and disinformation. If you see something that is utterly shocking, horrific, revolting, that goes against all human decency, and you want to click share... That is the time to pause and take a deep breath, and CHECK YOUR SOURCES.
Is it a photo? Where was it taken? Who posted it? Could it be AI generated or digitally altered?
Is it a headline? What's the news source? Are they reporting eyewitness accounts from their own journalists? Interviews from bystanders? Legal observers? Are they republishing articles from other news media? What are their sources?
Remember that the economy of social media is clicks and shares, which preys on your anger, fear, heartbreak, and rage. Be consistent, be as factual as possible, be compassionate, and don't share needlessly traumatic and sensationalized stories!

We need Klingons!!
Do you have opinions on klingon forehead ridges? Maybe about redundant organs? What about the composition of their blood that makes it that nice bright pink? We need you!
We are looking for some writers who would like to write some speculative biology about Klingons, so if that's right up your alley apply here!
If you're asking yourself "what is this?" check this out!

arthur's journal - "an admiration for perennials"
Tumblr media
Transcription:
“Got lost earlier today and ended up meeting a woman.
She was real nice, showed me around her garden, and such.
Funnily enough, she was growing some of them flowers ma used to like.
She even gave me a few to thank me for helping her.
Can't help but think maybe we was meant to meet, given that strange coincidence.
It's more likely I'm just a fool who spends too much time in his head.
Anyways- can't stop thinking about it”
Tumblr media
Hope y’all like this! Had the random idea to bring Arthur's drawing from my fic to life and figured I might as well do a journal entry alongside it!! Our sketching styles aren’t too different so the drawing was surprisingly easy. But copying his handwriting was a whole 'nother level of difficulty lmfao. Lmk what y’all think!
