“kids today with their smartphones and sexting and naked pictures are so irresponsible!!!” well in the 1820′s the Emperor of Brazil D. Pedro I sent letters to his lover calling himself “big devil” and “fiery little fire” containing drawings of his own dick and actual pubic hair and now that’s historical document so
when i was working in special collections i had a WWII letter that had a little squiggle and said “turn me upside down!” on the paper so I did that and it was a drawing of a dick ejaculating. #romance
then when I told a co-worker she said I was lucky it didn’t have any “suspicious stains” accompanying the letter which HAS happened on archival (19th century and earlier) letters before.
i mean like at least when you get a sext no one a hundred years later is gonna have to look at your jizz stains as historical evidence. which i am super grateful for.
Month: July 2017
A group of rough looking boys walked past me today and all I heard of their conversation was “he’s got that anxiety disorder bro so I went with him so he’d be more comfortable” and it made me realise the world isn’t all that bad
The pet store I worked at had a pen with rabbits near the front door. On every side of the pen were huge signs saying “You can pet me, but don’t pick me up!”
One day two absolutely huge guys came in and one immediately reaches into the pen to grab a rabbit. Before i could say anything his friend grabbed his arm and asked him “did you see the sign?”
He said “yeah! it says that you can pick them up but don’t pet them!”
Then he went quiet for a moment and softly said “I didn’t read it right did I?”
And his friend just puts his arm on his shoulder and said “its ok, i know you’ve got that thing where words get mixed up. Let just pet these cute lil shits”
And I still haven’t gotten over that interaction.I was walking my dog through Boston bc he likes the likes car rides. He’s a little thing tbh we call him short and long.
So this huge scary man with a full beard approaches me like “hey can my buddy and I pet your dog? He gets nervous around dogs but your’s is so small I think it’s a good place to start.”
Ofc I was like “yes he’s very friendly!” So this guy brings his equally big friend over and they sit on the floor while this man looks terrified of my tiny dog so big man number one asks “can I pick him up?” And i say yes so he picks him up and puts him on man number two’s lap and man number two is abt to freak out and his friend straight up just goes “hey man, it’s okay just relax I’d never let anything hurt you. He’s a good boy.” I’ll never forget it ever bc I know that man looked at me (5’3 , glasses, probably wearing a sweater vest) and my dog (kinda goofy looking little thing) and was like ‘ah yes the two least intimidating living things I’ve seen in Boston all day he’ll feel relaxed around them’ and went out of his way to help his friend. It makes me so happyA good post, pure.
Another adorable story has been added.
I’m 23 years old and I still can’t tell if I’m a blonde or a redhead.
Redhead. I would say strawberry blond, but you have dark eyebrows and as a 100% certifiable scotts-irish Ginger, I have only seen those in other gingers
Definitely redhead. The gene for red hair brings with it very pale skin and an inability to tan.
砂を液状に…カヌーもこげちゃう? 流動床、応用に期待
角拓哉 2017年5月16日08時50分
砂を液状にするという、ものつくり大学(埼玉県行田市)非常勤講師の的場やすしさん(53)と、同大教授の菅谷諭さん(56)の研究が関心を集めている。砂の中に空気を送り込み、液体のような状態にする「流動床(りゅうどうしょう)」と呼ばれるもので、アトラクションやトレーニング分野への応用が期待されている。
流動床は、砂を入れた容器の底から空気を送る。砂にかかる重力と空気で浮かせる力が釣り合ったときに液体のような状態になる。
研究室では、縦1・7メートル、横1・1メートル、高さ60センチの大型水槽に1トンの砂を入れて送風。手をいれれば水の中と同じような感触に変わり、底に沈めたボールも浮かび出る状態になった。川下りの映像を見る「ヘッド・マウント・ディスプレー」を頭部に装着し、船に見立てた小さな水槽も浮かびあがり、カヌーの疑似体験もできた。
What the fuck is happening
To all those who are wondering, while I don’t speak the language I do understand the science behind this video.
Basically what is happening is they’re blowing a bunch of tiny bubbles into the dry sand, what this does is make all the particles move around each other actively making the sand act as a fluid.
So while the sand is aerated you can easily move things around in it, but when it’s not, it settles and returns to a more solid mass.
It’s the same idea of how real life quick sand works, just substituting water for air.
ME ALL THE TIME WHEN SOMEONE SAYS THAT TO ME

Out of all the weird af stuff I’ve seen on tumblr, this is by far the most disturbing thing I’ve layed eyes on
My work here is done. Great success.

tag urself im the one in the upper left corner
@peanutters,,, i feel you might,,,, enjoy this?
This is so great. I love them all, especially the oranda.
I think they’re lovely!
The most important tool in an artist’s trade is a bunch of old towels that you have complete carte blanche to stain or rip up.
This is the truest of things. For any physical media- watercolor is at least 70% dabbing your brush onto paper or cotton towel to control waterflow, turpentine rags for oils, the washcloth you keep around to get the flakes off pencils, blending rags for graphite…
though I imagine having a towel to tear to pieces is very helpful for digital too.
Good for houseplants, too.
Biscuits in England: hard, chewy, flat.
Biscuits in America: soft, fluffy, tall.
Breadsticks in England: crispy, snappy.
Breadsticks in America: miniature French breads with different flavors.
Muffins in England: floury, flat, good for sandwiches.
Muffins in America: damper, taller, bad for sandwiches but often full of stuff.
Apparently, baked goods in England: crispy, flat.
Apparently, baked goods in America: soft, tall.
Did American bakers just go “yeah nothing is soft enough”, or are these the variations that developed when people tried to make versions that you eat on their own?

People on this hellsite: because of an ending that you have to hack the game to find I’m going to demonize this game every chance I get
It’s 4 am and this is barely even a picture but I feel the concept alone makes it worth posting: FOC era WaveWave where Shockwave tries to be low-key into Soundwave while also making it as obvious as possible what he wants
Shockwave: “He’s smart, straight-forward, efficient, hardworking, and surrounds himself with weird bots no one else likes. He’s perfect”
