1) “I hate this ship. It’s disgusting and sucks” ← expressing your opinion. Harsh but ok.

2) “I hate this ship. People who ship it are disgusting and suck” ← being a lil’ cunt. Not ok.

Okay guys…

Who’s bald,

Was asleep for years,

The last of his people,

Has a connection to spirits,

Uses a staff,

Has eyes that glow,

Is incredibly powerful,

And has a crush on a girl from a tribe?

THAT’S RIGHT.

SOLAS IS THE FUCKING AVATAR.

Remember this the next time you want to complain about GMO’s, we may not have done it in a lab but they still are that.

Isn’t this more of a combination of selective breeding and GMOs? Not just GMOs?

Yes. But people talk about how GMO’s are “unnatural”, yet for centuries humanity has been exploiting mutations in animals and plants to produce food for themselves.

GMO’s are simply the process of inducing these mutations reliably.

People hear “Lettuce being modified with scorpion DNA” and think that we’re now eating scorpions. But, in reality, they’re taking a tiny bit of scorpion DNA and splicing it into the plant. Why? So the plant will produce poison that is not harmful to humans but will deter insects, reducing the use of pesticide, which CAN be harmful to humans and the environment.

GMOs are producing rice that can survive flooding, which makes rice more reliable yields and will prevent food shortages in poor nations that rely on said crops for staple food.

GMOs are also creating spider-goat hybrids. Why? So we can splice web production into the goat’s udders. We’ll be able to spin huge quantities of spider silk, enough to reliably create spider silk cables and ropes, which have more tensile strength than steel.
