The dollhouses of death that changed forensic science. 

I finally made a command-line app. So it is basically like a library of the books you’ve read. I am quite proud to finish it, but I plan to perfect it a bit more because I have ideas how to make it better. 

You can find a full version on my GitHub.

Grover and Clyde

Grover Sanders Krantz was an American anthropologist and cryptozoologist. He was one of few scientists not only to research Bigfoot, but also to express his belief in the animal’s existence. Krantz’s specialty as an anthropologist included all aspects of human evolution, but he was best known outside of academia as the first serious researcher to devote his professional energies to the scientific study of Bigfoot, beginning in 1963.

When he died, his body was donated to science (as per his wish). It was used to study human body decay rates for forensic science. He had only one condition to which was that he  wished that his body be laid to rest alongside the bones of his three favorite Irish Wolfhounds – Clyde, Icky, and Yahoo.

How Does Alcohol Make You Drunk?

As you know, I started university this year and since then I have made some embarrassing descisions as a result of alcohol consumption. Making this educational infographic about the science behind drunkeness balances it all out right..?

man it’s so wild to me that the greeks literally thought that a large number of women’s ailments were caused by their wombs (which they believed to be a weird animalistic thing living in women’s bodies) just picking up and migrating all over the place (fun fact, the word hysteria comes from this nonsense), and while that’s horribly misogynistic and terrible i can’t say i wouldn’t milk that shit for all it’s worth if i lived in ancient greece

like, gotta go harvest the crops? sorry dude, womb’s all up in my arms, can’t do anything about it

want me to weave something? love to but the ol womb’s at it again, you know how it is

got caught making out with the neighbor’s wife? haha man that womb of mine sure is a riot
