Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web.

While unregistered users are able to browse the forum on a basic level, registering an account provides additional forum access not visible to guests as well as the ability to join in discussions and contribute yourself! Registration is free and instantaneous.

Just sat the first two of my Geology and Human Biology AS Levels, and I'm doing the Computing and Geography exams next week. I've also taken History, but no exams in that until the summer, fortunately. How about you?

Wait, Fakey is younger than me..? There goes his sense of authority. I can now mock him with impunity! :evilsmile:

You lucky bugger at my school they don't offer Geology!

I do Biology, English Literature, Philosophy and History. Which course are you doing for history (Im doing the Crusades and the Reformation)
I have a General Studies exam on Monday, but thats just common sense really.

Authority is not tied to age.

It is tied to whether or not you were born with back hair.

I was, so I have authority.

We're covering German and Italian Unification; it's interesting, although I'd love to study the Crusades. I think we're moving on to the Rebecca Riots and such next.

You have to take exams in General Studies? What are they on? How many lessons of GS do you have?

My subjects are Modern History, Ancient History (Yes they are different subjects at my school), Biology, English Advanced (there are three English courses, Fundamentals,Standard and Advanced), Arts, and finally Studies of World Religions Advanced ( I go to a Catholic school so a religious topic is compulsory, I chose the one that is all about Islam and Buddhism).

Ahhhhhh I wanna do Geology and Ancient History!

We have General Studies once a week. The exam is just on basic maths and science. Really pointless but its compulsory.

English Literature would be the equivalent of English Advanced. Its my best and favourite subject :)

Here in the U.S. we have English I, English II, English III, and English IV.

There's also the Honors variants, and I'm not sure if my school has Advanced Placement classes for it.

Last semester I took Biology Honors, Art Intro, World Civilization(Really just Western Eurasia History), and English II. This semester I take Sculpture, Geometry, 21st Century Skills, and Geology.

The reason they teach Geology here is because a teacher gets to create an elective class, so my Intergrated Scince Teacher created Geology when she came to the school. Please note she did this before I moved up here, so I don't know how old the class is.

Next year I plan on taking Zoology, Anatomy, and various other things that'll help me get a job in scientific illustration. My Biology teacher from last semester teaches Zoology, so I get to hang out with him again. He's like an older me, only a little bit more subdued.

Yes, there are more Fakeys out there. You may shit yourselves in terror.

Actually, he doesn't wear socks. Ever. He's been increasing the mitochondria count in his feet. I plan on doing so too.
I'm friends with him because he likes almost everything I like, as well as the fact I can manage to hold a conversation about speculative evolution longer than I can on here, because you guys are REALLY CONDESCENDING.

We've talked about things from predatory turtles built for speed to multi-shellular(Like multi-cellular, only for viruses) life forms. I've tried bring up such things here and you guys just let the topic die because "Oh this is just Fakey, he must be trolling." or "This is good. Let's not give feedback to tell him how he can improve."

Seriously, the site's default attitude toward me is kinda DICKISH.

Now that that's off my chest, I'm gonna go finish watching Gurren Lagann.

Well you are kind of ..... Random and Strange. But I can see Fakey being one of those eccentric science teachers who enjoys the dissections waay too much.
Currently though I'm on holidays, I only have a few more weeks before I go back to school.

I hate dissections. The preservative smell like shit.

I want to disect fresh meat.

I actually don't plan on teaching. I'm going into paleoart.
