praying so hard that a good tumblr alternative comes out of the sudden burst of small social media platforms
#alas i'm not sure about cohost and pillowfort's long term survival. pillowfort had longterm survived ig but it's still not doing great#might have to go all the way back to livejournal and use my dreamwidth L;KDGHLADFGHKL;ADGHKLADFJ;GPH#it's a shame that it's so difficult to make commercially viable social media! it limits options so much#you need a juggarnaut monopoly or you probably won't last or have much of a userbase (i want to be proven wrong about this so bad)

genetics question for you: moonpaw is super inbred (both of her parents relate back to cinderheartxlionblaze and more generally Jake and thunderclan robinwing), so I was kind of wondering how that could/would affect her in terms of genetics and genetic mutations?
I think there is a somewhat common misconception that inbreeding causes mutation, but this isn't the case at all! The two main concerns with inbreeding are detrimental recessive traits and decreased immune function.
The first part is simple - most random mutations that occur either have no notable effect, or are detrimental in some way. However, in many cases those detrimental mutations are recessive, so when they first occur they don't really matter. However, if two individuals with the same recessive mutation breed, then their offspring may inherit it from both parents, and that's where the problems arise. Inbreeding vastly increases the risk of this happening - the closer the individuals, the higher the risk.
The other issue is immune function. The immune system functions partly in response to the environment, but genes for antibodies are also inherited. For the strongest immune system you want genes for as many different antibodies as possible, which means avoiding inbreeding. Lowered fertility, smaller litter sizes, and stunted growth in the kittens are some of the first signs of inbreeding having a negative effect.
If you know an individual's heritage, you can run calculations to determine the coefficient of inbreeding (COI), which can help quantify the risk of these effects. For animal breeding the figure commonly cited to keep the risks minimal if you need to line-breed to fix traits is 5% but of course the lower the better. I was going to do that for Moonpaw here but it's actually taking a long time because of just how bad her family tree is so I'll do that in a reblog.

"Tendrás a tu hombre piel morena, desde el cielo habló la Luna llena, pero a cambio quiero el hijo primero que le engendres a él"
Ah look who it is! Moonpaw, I'm really curious about what her story will be
The first paragraph is from a song called Hijo de la Luna (son of the moon) by Mecano, check it out, is great

The rewrites trying to decide who Moonpaw’s parents should be:
#warrior cats#if she has to be in thunderclan then#nightsun#with the name and appearance it's fitting imo#i also think there could be an interesting angle with her parents using the clan changing law. like is cherryfall her mentor and seething#does she complain it's too bright one day and someone snarks about her being part shadowclan. do some cats believe her markings are an omen#about the new law#otherwise i think it'd be cool if she was in windclan#it'd be cute is she was related to whistlepaw but whistle's parents have 6 children already. her mum's sister could have a second litter ig#they could remember the secret dad rule from itw (larkwing has no canon mate) and have cats bickering about that maybe

take this result with an enormous grain of salt but
can't believe they made moonpaw warrior cats canonically inbred

#warrior cats#moonpaw#tw incest#do you think they're going to do a soft reboot soon to unfuck the family trees or give up and have a cat with half sibling parents

hey fellow Europeans (EU), just a friendly and mildly concerned reminder that in less than a month, the European elections are taking place. it's an election with a historically low turnout, but one that is just as important as any other, if not more. the composition of the EU parliament determines the political direction of the EU, and has an impact on all 27 countries through directives and regulations that get voted.
we cannot let far right extremist parties get an even bigger stronghold there than they already do. sadly, there are very significant threats of exactly that happening from many countries.
so please, if you are an EU citizen living in the EU and are of voting age, check the modalities to vote in your country of residence, and make sure to make your voice heard.
