IT HAPPENED!!! I got to meet and do a panel with the last living classic Universal monster actor last weekend at Grand Rapids Comic Con!! The underwater actor who played my early inspiration, The Creature From The Black Lagoon – the amazing Ricou Browning!!!
A dream come true, as you look through these photos:
– His fishman and mine, 1954 & 2017.
– Side-by-side at our panel.
– Me remembering his legacy in the water.
– We exchanged signed 8×10’s, and here’s what I gmot!!
ALL A DREAM COME TRUE!!

Doug Jones is too good for this world.

People ask me why I find myself hopelessly in love with biology and want to major in genetics. Here’s why:

I have this fish tank. A glass box of water I put sand and rocks in. But the point of a fish tank are the things that are alive. I have plants that reach outstretched hands to the light and grow to the barrier between the clear fluid they live in and the clear gas we breathe. In one single leaf so much chemistry takes place, photosynthesis makes ungraspable light into life supporting substance.

And in my fish tank I have a fish. A fish that can be found lifeless in cups in pet stores, but I’ve seen this fish thrive. I’ve seen him change color due to jumping genes. I’ve seen him play in the filter meaning he makes decisions. Something so small exists and lives and makes choices. It baffles me, truly. Such vibrant color that I can only compare to something man made and yet it was nature that did it first.

I see this little world that I have placed on my shelf. Cared for by me; dependent on me. It amazes me the human emotion I have for them, and how far humanity has gone that I can dose the tank and manage it on a delicate scale.

And sometimes I wonder, what if we exist on a glass box on someone’s shelf? One way glass we can’t look out, but if we could, everything would be different? What if we are all a fragment of someone’s novel or a C+ science project? Life is so so amazing, it’s baffling.

I’ve seen many posts reminiscing about how buckwild Twilight was but somehow nobody seems to have mentioned the matching family jewelry?? that for some reason the movie’s costume designers thought it made sense that all of the kids would casually wear a family crest to school every day and nobody would say anything about it?? as if five weird antisocial adopted teenagers who skip school a lot and are all dating each other doesn’t just SCREAM cult activity??? if Charlie Swan hadn’t wanted to bang Carlisle he would have CPS on that family in a heartbeat, thanks for coming to my tedtalk 

maybe that’s their trick? maybe every time they move to a small town they all take turns strutting and casually draping themselves over furniture in front of the chief of police until they figure out which one of them s/he is most attracted to and then that cullen (usually carlisle but sometimes esme. once, memorably, jasper) is responsible for keeping cps off their backs for the next five years.  emmett calls it operation fuck the police. 

#twilight saga#chief that is definitely a cult#chief they all wear a ‘family crest’ and are dating their siblings#deputy listen up and listen good cause i’m only gonna say this once#carlisle cullen isn’t a snack#he’s a three course meal#and that family is totally normal#nothing to see there at all#except the tightest ass I’ve ever seen on a man with five teenage children

how dare you relegate this gold mine to the tags
