Hierarchy of Life

Life as organized into levels from smallest to largest

*Note*- the first three basic HOL are for unicellular. All seven are for multicellulae

The basic hierarchy of life is biological molecule, organelles, cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organism.

Hierarchy

So... if I’m a lobster... and I’m at the bottom of a dominance hierarchy... and I want to fight the lobster at the top of the dominance hierarchy.... do I have to fight my way to the top of the dominance hierarchy one lobster at a time? Or do I just fight the lobster at the top? Yeah.... that’s what I thought.

Hym “Yeah, see. This is why your hierarchy thing is bullshit. Hierarchy doesn’t prevent the lobsters at the bottom from fighting the lobsters at the top. And here you are trying to run away. Scuttling your little lobster legs off. Trying to put as many lobsters between me and you as possible. And you need that. Yeah need the other lobsters to protect you. Which is not how lobsters work. And you need me to be obstructed be artificial hierarchy. Because what happens if I’m not? Everyone finds out you’re a charlatan and you lose everything? Is that what happens?”

Hierarchy Vision

A dual-luminescent sculptural method where one form reveals two distinct visual states — glow-in-the-dark (GITD) in full darkness, and a separate UV-reactive identity under black light. Developed by Tangan Karat, the technique blends material layering with light-based transformation, revealing hidden visuals not visible under normal lighting.

Hierarchy Vision challenges perception, bending how we view form, light, and hidden presence within sculptural mediums.

“That monster doesn’t just glow… it’s channeling full Hierarchy Vision.”
“You need black light to see the other half. That’s Hierarchy Vision energy right there.”

gaming hierarchy

The hierarchy of gamers based on their state when they play games. It goes like this:

Highest: Epic gameer (epic gameing when they play games)
Gameer (gameing when they play games)
Epic gamer (epic gaming when they play games)
Lowest: Gamer (gaming when they play games)

You can temporarily make yourself higher on the gaming hierarchy by playing a gamee.

What level are you on the gaming hierarchy?
I'm just an epic gamer. I wish I was higher, though.
Don't worry. Keep gaming and you'll be a gameer someday.

Schrödinger's racial hierarchy

The "superior race" somehow still manages to find the "inferior race" threatening

Think of the way MAGA feels about mexican immigrants. "They're stealing our jobs!!! B-but we don't feel threatened!! We're superior which is why we need to kick them out!"

That's schrödinger's racial hierarchy
