bug on the window

climbing up past the 'twin sisters bakery and cafe' sign up past the fading fiesta decorations red & yellow paper cut outs in the shape of cactus and suns and butterflies straight up all the way up to the seal holding the window in it's frame all the way to the ajutting ceiling a different plane a different texture he loses his grip and flies

nice adaptation i think just unfold a pair of wings and take off sensory guidance system on full alert zooming into the unknown the wild the wide circle the currents of air the fabric of the world it soars it hovers a burst of speed and it's gone

Microcosm: E. coli and the New Science of Life

The anatomically modern human species has been around a few thousand generations. Our class, the mammals, has been evolving for many millions more leaving behind an impressive legacy of living form and function. Imagine what our bodies, organs, and cells might be physically capable of, if the long sharp scalpel of natural selection had been operating on our kind for uncounted trillions of generations. There are such miraculous creatures.

One in particular has developed the capacity to completely remake their entire metabolism from the molecular bottom up or retrofit their gross anatomy from the top down. If humans were capable of equivalent transformations, we would be able to sprint across a continent subsisting only on a diet of rancid meat, stand on the ocean’s shore, sprout a tail and gills in the space of a few hours, and swim across the Atlantic feeding only on toxic red algae. Yet even that doesn’t do their sophistication justice, for they have evolved to evolve with clever system built into and onto clever systems.

the sharp scalpel of natural selection i like that it but it's also a nurturing because we're here we made it cool
