Start reading the story here!

Bacteria don’t die like you or I die. If you were to take an anti-tank shell, aim it at a person’s torso, and blow them in half, you wouldn’t expect the legs of that person to get up and start running away. But if you do the same thing (that is, do something that should be 100% fatal like throw them into pure alcohol) to a bacterium, something else happens. Sure, they’re dead the moment their cell membrane splits open, but even as it crawls around, pulling the cytoplasm and organelles out, the parts of it that remain inside, keep working. Flagella will keep beating hard, moving the corpse-to-be around, cilia will keep slashing through the water, trying to move to the nearest food or light or lack of light, depending on the species.


All in all, I think that we’re the luckier of the two.

consolecadet:

Student Film Set Bingo. Yes, I have experienced all of these.


I’ve experienced 12 just in the last week at USC. I’ve seen all at some point.

kvitoya:



I’ll find a way, no matter what you do, to bring her back to me.  And the more you defy me, the more it’s gonna hurt.

One of my favorite scenes in the series. I’ve been wanting to draw this for months and finally felt up to tackling it this weekend.  (Swapped out her Talley Buffalo Cannon for a cutter rifle cause it’s the only one I had a reference for).  Full view for all the little details, yes?

blackscarabfilmz:

I’m sure there is a more efficient way to dust the shelf, but there’s no better way to realize how much of a book hoarder I am then to pile it like this. #bookstagram #books #literarylair #blackscarabfilmz

Bacteria don’t die
like you or I die. If you were to take an anti-tank shell, aim it at
a person’s torso, and blow them in half, you wouldn’t expect the
legs of that person to get up and start running away. But if you do
the same thing (that is, do something that should be 100% fatal like
throw them into pure alcohol) to a bacterium, something else happens.
Sure, they’re dead the moment their cell membrane splits open, but
even as it crawls around, pulling the cytoplasm and organelles out,
the parts of it that remain inside, keep working. Flagella will keep
beating hard, moving the corpse-to-be around, cilia will keep
slashing through the water, trying to move to the nearest food or
light or lack of light, depending on the species.



All in all, I think
that we’re the luckier of the two.



Of course, the
benefits of having a single cell can’t be understated. Some of them
are shockingly complex, and the Bioengineers and Gene-wrights have
been able to come up with some really interesting breeds of germ. In
front of me now, actually, was one I was particularly fond of. Big as
my head, a free-swimming sphere that floated along the organo-glass
piping of the Strider’s lymphatic system. Did a remarkable job of
lighting the place up, the dry bone-and-cartilage cavity that had
been lovingly moulded and shaped by the bonegrowers to have seats and
tables jutting out of the walls.
