FR: our team is overwhelmed :((( Also FR: here’s a new ancient breed and new familiars and some new apparel and some gene ports and oh look another ancient breed and- Y’all. Just fucking slow down holy shit. Fix stuff before you add more busted shit to the pile.

made these studying cat genetics over the past 2 weeks!
i felt like there weren't enough visual guides of cat genetics so i went ahead and made some simple ones, my main references were Sparrow's Garden the website, Sparrow's Garden the blog, Messybeast, and The Little Carnivore.

really wish there were more "normie" terts that were like, simple fox-like sock markings on a dragons legs or a bird-like chest markings or just the wingtips or something. Even most of the simple ones are kind of overwhelming and all over or too fantasy-looking to really stand in for animal markings

more genetic things i noticed that are kinda awks for me
flamescales. where did they come from ?? are they also like animus powers and pop up randomly, or is it like a nightwing powers thing ? goes for both mudwings and skywings
nightwing powers. is it completely random which power a dragon would get ? do some families specifically get mind reading instead over prophecy powers ? is it complete magic bullshit ? maybe ! ALSO, WHY AND WHERE DID THEY START LOL
silk and hivewings. do you think some hivewings would have more silk features ?? or maybe even a nightwing throwback occasionally, one being born under a full moon and having strange visions ?
i know the books are for kids, so everything isn't totally thought out, but also, it's good to be aware of faults in media + don't care + hyperfixation got me good w this one

Scientists shed light on the 25-million-year-old genetic twist behind why humans and their ape relatives lack tails. This groundbreaking revelation exposes the long-hidden genetic culprit responsible for our tail loss.

So I was updating my tag list for my blog today and found myself looking at just what a massive list of genes there are now, and thinking back to when I joined FR shortly before the 1st Anniversary. At that time these lists ended at ripple, seraph, and crackle, and there was only one eye type so it didn't even have a name.
I can still remember how excited I was when current came out and I could add it to a ripple-seraph spiral I had recently purchased. And how much I loved smoke compared to the handful of other terts available at the time.
These days we're kind of spoiled for choice with the possible genetics for our dragons.
Also, I'm amused to note that most of the genes I typically avoid using are ones I had too much exposure to in those first few years.

Man I wish the devs would slow the fuck down and focus on cleaning up gene errors and making things run smoothly before adding more to the mi- oh my god ball. Forget everything I just said. BALL.

Scientists have found genetic variations associated with human bisexual behaviour for the first time, and they are linked to risk-taking behaviour and producing more children.  The University of Michigan-led study, which was published on Wednesday (3 January) in Science Advances, analysed data from more than 450,000 people in the UK’s Biobank database of genetic and health information.

I love how the token "wingless" breed has two big sails that could be mistaken for wings, how the giant serpent breed that lives in ultra-dense jungles still has wings, how the underwater eel breed also needs wings, oh and gaolers too, they needed wings... for reasons.
FFS, I know that you have to put the secondary somewhere, but you really could have come up with more creative ways to do it than just slapping wings or wing-like structures on everything. Scale patterns, coat/mane patterns, horns and bone growths/plates, contiguous dorsal fins, feather/fur/chitin/quill layers, etc. literally anything else.

Not to get too personal but I’ve spoken before about how I’ve never met my biological father, I know very little about him. And I’ve never been one of those people who wanted to connect with biological family, I’ve never had that impulse, but recently I realised that every time I’ve filled in a form which asks about my family medical history I’ve just been guessing. Like my biological father’s family could have high levels of diabetes or cancer or some genetic condition that doesn’t materialise until you’re in your 30s and I would have absolutely no idea. And that is a really strange realisation
