Yass!!! Slay!!! I made my agents finally <333

A rainbow of polyps 🪸

This is Jazzdragon 12 from 2009, whose color and design were inspired by nudibranchs. The instrument isn't terribly fancy this time, as I wanted most of the effort in the goofy dragon design.

Okay this week has been all over the place and I ended up doing more research than work on Polyp. But. I do feel comfortable enough with the technology to reveal that there will be functionalities for video calling/screen sharing/streaming as these are built into WebRTC (I'd say WebRTC seems significantly more focused on this then the DataChannel stuff) and will be simple and cheap (hours wise) to implement. Depending on various factors I'll decide whether its a plugin or built into the app by default but probably a plugin.

Polyp's new look for Splatoon 3! Here is a transcript of her bio:

A former Octarian sniper and talented battler, Polyp recently moved from Inkopolis to the Splatlands to test her skills. She is nonverbal and has difficulty making friends. Her grim appearance and skill in battle have earned her a reputation as a cool and mysterious figure in Splatsville. Polyp is proficient with all weapons, but favors precision ranged options such as chargers. She recently found a new favorite in the Tri-Stringer. Her home turf is Scorch Gorge.

Okay so i was able to pick up a url for the project cheap so if you specifically want more details about this project im going to start posting devlogs soon

Polypyre could absolutely pass as a Baby Digimon and if it was, would be perfect for Sangomon and Syakomon imo. Polypyre cluster together for safety, employing their superheated tentacles as a means of defence. By allowing different chemicals to mix at the ends of these structures, the reactions can produce huge amounts of heat or even fire. Depending on what was synthesised these compounds can be incredibly toxic too. Kindleo has a "body" that is actually tightly bunched, hair-like tentacles. Each tentacle can deliver an incredibly painful sting, introducing poisons into the body capable of inducing an extremely potent burning sensation. These same chemicals can coat the tentacle, react with air and set ablaze, providing another layer of defence. Medusear have little to fear as they drift slowly from A to B. With bodies composed of stinging tentacles and eight particularly stretchy tentacles adapted for attack, they are difficult to approach. The single large stinger at the end of their "tail" is capable of delivering their most debilitating poison, which can prove fatal in the smallest of doses. --Attack Info-- --Ability Info--

🍑 Bubble Butt Adenoma 🍑

If you have ever had a colonoscopy then your doctor may have informed you that they found a number of polyps.

Polyps are slow growing lumps of tissue that grow on the inside wall of the colon and protrude, often from stalks, into the lumen of the colon like tiny mushrooms.

They are most often benign but can be an early warning sign for colorectal cancer.

To the naked eye, most polyps look similar but they can be classified based upon their microscopic appearance which means that it is important to biopsy a polyp to determine exactly what it is.

Some polyps may be described as tubular adenomas. These types of polyps look like that are composed of the many numerous tubular glands that line the rest of the colon. Except they look more irregular and contain few of the mucous secreting goblet cells you would expect to find in a regular intestinal gland (crypt of Lieberkuhn). The legs, arm and butt in the image left are the tubular gland part of this adenoma.

Some polyps may be described as being a villous adenoma. These look more shaggy/lumpy grossly. They look like this because under the microscope you will find that they are composed of many long, branching finger-like projections called villi. Villi are not a typical finding in the colon and imply a faster rate of polyp growth.

A polyp that has features of both types is often referred to by doctors as a 'tubulovillous' adenoma.

It is important to know the type of adenoma causing the polyp because villous adenoma have a higher chance of becoming cancer quicker than tubular adenomas.

PLEASE READ

has anyone kitty ever done this? It isn't a hairball. I've taken him to the vet 3 times and the emergency vet. They can't figure it out. 3 antibiotic cycles and it continues. Even through steroids. I am saving for a specialist to do some x-rays. My brain says asthma or orange tabby cats are prone to polyps in the nose and throat.

He still eats, drinks, and plays sometimes. Talks to me.

I'm really scared. And I can't have him in pain or uncomfortable.

I'm so worried.

I don't know how to ask this without sounding like an asshole so I left my username on and everything because I really do NOT intend to sound mean and I'm actually really excited for your Polyp project...but that name is a little awkward?

I did look up the term before and imo it seems fine because like here it refers to polyp the species that makes up coral and i intend to make that clear with the themeing. However, if additional people do think this is too awkward/offensive/etc. I can definitely change it. I appreciate you bringing it up.
