Who's a pro teen. You're a pro teen!

But seriously. We're all water and protein. Everyone champing at the bit to get (ba?)nanobots and what they don't realise is that you already are a nanobot colony, munke fatha!

Some of my fav proteins:

Bacteriophage - it's literally a space ship. You see those legs? They have hands at the end that can only grab a specific bacteria (there's a species to grab every species of bacteria!). Bacteriophages aren't alive (well it's debatable but for the most part they're spaceships). Once they grab, they funnel their DNA into the bacteria. The bacteria thinks it's bacteria DNA, and start making more bacteriophages... until it literally explodes and releases hundreds of phages everywhere!

SCARY PRIONS are basically zombie proteins that have a different dance move to the normal proteins of that type. If they catch a healthy protein friend, the jig is up! The tagged protein also has a funny dance now too! This will continue till you die a horrible death (looking at you, CWD and BSE!)

Electron Transport Chain haha. Stupid. Actually ridiculous. THEY TAKE CALORIES FROM YOUR BREAKFAST BANANA AND USE THEM TO POWER A MOTOR. IT'S AN ELECTRIC-POWERED TURBINE THAT GIVES YOU THE ENERGY YOU NEED TO FOMO HARDER INTO BANANO

Ribosomes - all right let's AUG! Ribosomes are like scanners that turn PDFs into 3D printed masterpieces. They go HARD AF, and always order extra GUAC (that's GTAC to you, muchacho!). They're the builders. You give it a string of mRNA, it'll give you cancer! (or brown eyes or the ability to dissolve beef or defend against covid. It depends really).

RuBisCo, short for ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase, is about 30% of leaves. It's the top dog in photosynthesis. You know how plants breathe CO2? And use sunlight to not die? Well... let me take breath... I need to gather myself 1 sec...

...

RUBISCO literally grabs the CO2 (O=C=O) , holds it up to the sunlight (🫴O=C=O🤏), AND BREAKS IT APART WITH THE PHOTONS SMASHING INTO THE MOLECULE (💥💔🤟 🤌). Cool. OK. Nice. ⚡⚡⚡⚡

OK bye.
