1.) Denial
1. I believe in god and don’t understand statistics. 2. I have no idea of chemistry and biology and therefore believe that any association with a harmful element is automatically harmful. Even if the amount is insignificant. 3. I do not understand the difference between correlation and causality. 4. I ignore the most obvious studies and prefer to believe quacks that have been refuted a thousand times, that either have never treated or rightly no longer treat patients. 5. I cannot distinguish serious and scientific sources from lies and false promises and therefore believe that [insert arbitrary facebook/twitter/random page] is a credible source. 6. I know that there are problems with the pharmaceutical industry, therefore I consistently ignore everything that has to do with science and real medicine. 7. I do not understand the concept of herd immunity. 8. I do not watch news and therefore do not know what is going on in countries and regions lacking adequate vaccination protection. 9. I am not able to think logically and I don’t even realize that a conspiracy of this magnitude (with millions of people involved) could never be kept secret. 10. I want my child to die.
OXO What is the second picture of? I'd love to hear more about the party. What did you do? Singing? Dancing? General carousing?
What the Hell? This is so cool! Wish my physics teacher had done cool stuff like this
So, our physics teacher has the strange idea of motivating his students by letting each of us present a physical phenomenal we find interesting to our classmates in a 5-minutes-presentation. And now I need something that is interesting for everyone - even people that usually don't care for physics -, but has interesting facts for someone who's interested in it, too (preferably with an easy experiment). You don't happen to have any ideas, do you?
First of all, your professor is awesome for taking the time to do this. Of the top of my mind, the best one I have is Chladni figures.
Basically take a flat metal plate, fix it at the center and spray some fine sand particles on it.
Using a violin bow, gently excite any edge of the plate to magically witness these beautiful normal mode patterns ( known as Chladni patterns/figures ) forming on the plate.
Also notice that by pinching the plate at different points, the pattern obtained changes.
There is a whole lot of physics that goes behind such a simple phenomenon and I dare say we understand it completely. There are lots of questions on these figures that we have no answer for!
Hope this helps with your presentation. Have a good one!

reblog with your pets’ names, and what they think their names are
hermes: ‘buddy’
devi: ‘squeaker beast’
misty: ‘funny face’, ‘bitty butt’
molly: only answers to ‘molly’, but when she’s been fighting she knows ‘sinner cat’ and ‘mean girl’ are about her
Enderal...or at least it did
reblog with a video game that feels like home.
Just had a delightful conversation with these two dudes. Don’t know about what exactly but I like to think we were on the same page and agreed with each other wholeheartedly.
What if Barack and Michelle were never on vacation, but were out destroying Steve Bannon’s horcruxes?
