Currently Paying For 2 Kids In College And, Yeah... Getting Those "gift" Requests. Yet I Can Only Be

Fam PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF THE DEAD GODS

please please please no reblogs of exotic looking animals (ocelots, savannah cats, wolfdogs ecetera) when it is obvious these half- to fully wild animals are living as pets in someones house.

I can't talk about this enough, there are so many idiots who think they can manage wild animals only to get frustrated with them at some point because they just ARE NO PETS, and in the end it's people who work for animal welfare (like me), animal shelters and zoos who have to take over these poor creatures when it becomes clear that the owner fucked up or straight up died or got injured.

I know they look pretty and adorable and just super cool. But please don't.

As a musician and a geologist, this totally speaks to me!

IMPORTANT

attention all Officials, all Tumblr users, whoever the fuck you are.

This is severely important.

Ever sit down after a stressful day, watch your favorite youtuber, do commissions, etc.? Well in FOUR DAYS, that can all be taken away very easily. We’re so close yet so *far* from possibly saving the internet, and those who’s lives depend on it. Within this blog, there will be a link to a petition to stop net neutrality from being killed. There are many people who’s jobs are online. online schooling. the internet is extrememly important, and we can’t let the FCC take it away! Instead of just merely liking this post, sign the petition and reblog this post!

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!

Trying to look up whether duck eggs are good for you... what must my phone think of me?!

Clearly, I need to clean up my language

OXO What is the second picture of? I'd love to hear more about the party. What did you do? Singing? Dancing? General carousing?

There’s really nothing more to say...

This time of year can be difficult for some people. We hope all of those feeling sorrow or loss will find the support and help they need. Take a walk in nature, open up to a trusted friend, spend time doing something worthwhile. You are not alone. Photo of a gray tree frog by Rick Hansen, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

...and a lack of thoughtfulness

Yeah, I'm looking at you, anti-vaxxers, bigots, and everyone else who uses fairytales as a basis for "righteously" spreading hate.

The Earth is not over populated. Its over greeded. We suffer from lack of values for a human being.
