For years, I have wondered what a fish swimming in microgravity would look like. Finally, my curiosity has been rewarded. Here is a sphere of water in microgravity, complete with a fish. Personally, I am impressed that, despite the fish’s best efforts, the surface tension of the water is strong enough to keep it confined. This may not bode well for microgravity swimming pools at space hotels. (Video credit: IRPI LLC, source)

Here is a wall made of sticks I picked up in the forest, tied together with strands of my own hair. When the seeds I planted grow into vines, the walls will be strong.

There is a window. It's ugly. Hastily put back together with superglue and bloody hands, it has lost its transparency. The light streams in a little too warm, a little too red.

I was born to be green, but I do good work in red.

You try not to look too close at these broken boundaries as you ask if it's your fault.

What am I supposed to say? Should I answer you before my walls are done?

I would climb up there to hang out on those steps, it'd be my writing spot for sure

This is so weird- It looks like they made a bathroom, cut off half the stairs and blocked them to put up a wall and a door, then removed the stairs from the door above. What a reconfiguration.

Okay but this is only allowed if it's a living tree; if where it breaks through the ceiling is covered by leaves and branches on the other side, having a living friend with roots and leaves in the house sounds amazing, if you're not a coward just putting a massacred trunk there.

The fact that Mark Cuban can do this is just further proof of how much capatalism is f*cking people over.

Billionaire investor Mark Cuban launched an online pharmacy Thursday that offers more than 100 generic drugs at an affordable price with a goal of being “radically transparent” in its price negotiations with drug companies. 

For example, the leukemia drug imatinib is priced at $47 a month on MCCPDC compared to the $9,657 retail price.

The online pharmacy’s prices for generics factor in a 15% margin on top of actual manufacturer prices and a $3 pharmacist fee, the statement said.

How to stop getting angry at people on the internet: instead of feeling rage and adding fuel to the fire by lashing out at someone, just block them and move on. Don't hold on to the comment, to the message, delete it! And then watch a cute video. Disable comments. Disable anon. None of those things make you seem weak. You don't have to take anything "because this is the internet" or "because you put yourself out there". Honestly people can talk a lot about how important it is to be nice but people will always be rude, even when they are good people, even when they don't want to be rude. It's better to block than to hold to that anger and keep mulling it over

really really tired and mad at lower support needs autistic & speaking autistic (autistics who speak most of the time) stealing terms & space meant for higher support needs autistics & semi/nonspeaking autistics

higher support needs autistic & semi/nonspeaking autistics deserve words and space for us

not everything has to be about you!! not everything is about you

there is difference between being ignored and being decentered

you can be marginalized without being most marginalized

you can be marginalized while not being marginalized in other areas

autistic community should be for all autistics not just palatable autistics useful autistics acceptable autistics

angry angry angry
