i'm just. this many hermits in one place on the server is hard enough. this many hermits in one place IRL is incredible. the level of organization. apparently they've been testing this for two days. i keep on flipping between hermit streams and seeing them hang out in the background of each other's shots. this is INCREDIBLE what a cool thing to have happen <3

Researchers have created a new form of ice with a density very similar to that of water, according to a study published Thursday in Science. By shaking a jar of ice and metal balls at extremely cold temperatures, the team created a white powdery ice with different properties than any kind previously known.

The new ice has an amorphous structure—instead of its molecules forming a neat and ordered crystalline pattern, like ice you might make in your kitchen, its molecules are disorganized, like those of liquid water.

“It might be liquid water frozen in time,” Martin Chaplin, who studies water structure at London South Bank University and did not contribute to the paper, tells Nature News’ Jonathan O’Callaghan. “It could be very important.”

Because of its ubiquity on Earth, water might seem like an ordinary fluid. But it has some unusual properties. For example, as water cools, its density peaks at four degrees Celsius, and it becomes less dense as its temperature continues to drop, which is why ice cubes float in a glass of water. But that’s unusual—most liquids become more dense as they cool, per Science News’ Emily Conover.

Under normal conditions, water molecules connect in hexagonal shapes as they freeze. Scientists have discovered 20 crystalline forms of water ice, according to the New York Times’ Kenneth Chang.

The researchers didn’t set out to make a new kind of ice. In the study, they placed regular ice and steel balls in a jar and cooled them to minus 200 degrees Celsius, shaking the container at about 20 times per second—just out of pure curiosity.

“It was one of those Friday afternoon experiments where you just do it and see what happens,” Christoph Salzmann, a physical chemist at University College London and co-author of the paper, tells New Scientist’s Leah Crane. “Naively, you’d think nothing would happen, you’d just break the ice down into smaller bits. But to our great surprise, something did happen.”

ok I know the Oscar’s are happening right now (& I know you’re watching them!) but it just hit me that I’m getting to meet one of my closest friends from the last few years tomorrow!!! It still doesn’t feel real. We’ve been trying to plan this for a year. But I am so fucking excited!!!

My darling Fallon!!! That is SO exciting!!!! I'm so happy for you! The Oscars are FAR less important than this, make no mistake. I hope it goes well and that you have an AMAZING week with your friend 💜☀️🌿✨ I am thrilled for you, sunshine! I hope it's everything you both have planned and more!

These tiny nuggets formed when our solar system did. They're most likely from the inner asteroid belt between Jupiter and Mars.

To think this was once part of a massive asteroid that blazed through our atmosphere and slammed into the ground. A shooting star. From space. And after 4-6,000 years, it made its way to me.

The heart of a star.

It's incredible.

Plus, when I hold it, my hand buzzes like there's an electrical current running through it. I actually said “Ow.” That's weird, ngl.

I need non autistic people to realise meltdowns are a real debilitating thing that has a serious effect on your mental and physical health NOWWWWW!!! The way its been trivialized and lessened pisses me the fuck off. It's not a tantrum and it doesn't come from "being too weak-willed" it's painful and it's embarrassing AND MOST OF ALL IT'S INVOLUNTARY!! Don't claim to be an ally to autistic or disabled people and then make fun of people who have meltdowns. Literally get the hell out of my sight

#i can't believe i have to day it but autism /is/ a disablity. its disabling. meltdowns are part of that. #'oh this is a lukewarm take' you dumbshit fucks have been throwing the word neurodivergent and meltdown around so #casually they have both been said at me with the same disdain as a swear word. you guys will accept making fun of autistic people #if someone jn your circle who is 'cool' does it first. at your big ages. shut the hell up

Yall wanna hear a kinda funny, kinda sad story about my grandmother and hetero-normativity?

Ok, so... when my grandmother was in her 50s (I was an infant), she met a woman at the Unitarian Church. And, as can happen when you meet your soul mate, this event made it impossible for her to deny parts of herself that she had fiercely hidden her whole life.

All the drama- their affair being found out, the divorce with my grandfather, the court battle over who got the house, happened while I was a baby. Even in my earliest memories, it's just Mama Jo and Oma, and my grandfather lived elsewhere (first his own apartment, then a nursing home, then with us.)

But here's the thing- no one ever explained any of this to me. No one ever sat down and was like "hey, Rosie, so do you know what a lesbian is?" It was the 90s. It was Texas. I think my mom was still kinda processing all this, and just assumed that like... I was gonna figure it out. Don't mention it, let it just be normal. Like I think my mom thought that if she explained the situation, she would be making it weird? I dunno.

But like. In the 90s, in all the movies I had seen and books I had read, do you know how many same sex couples I had seen? Like. 0. Do you know how many "platonic best friend/roommates" I had seen? A lot. I had no context, is what I'm saying.

I literally thought this was a Golden Girls, roommates, besties situation until I was like...I dunno, 11? 12?

It was actually their parrot, an African Grey named Spike, imitating my grandmothers voice saying "Johanna, honey, it's getting late", that triggered the MIND BLOWN moment as I realized that *there's only one master bedroom and it only has 1 waterbed* when all the pieces finally clicked.

Anyway. I think it's a real important thing for kids to know queer people exist, for a lot of reasons, but also because kids can be clueless and it's embarrassing to have your grandmother be outted by a parrot because everyone just thought you'd figure it out on your own.

Anyway, here is my grandma and her wife, my Oma, after they moved to Albuquerque to be artsy gay cowboys and live their best life. They helped run a "Lesbian Dude Ranch" out there (basically just with funding and financial support. As Oma has explained "traditionally, most lesbians don't have a lot of money" so they wrote the checks and let the younger ladies actually run the ranch.)

#this is the grandmother who passed away unexpectedly earlier this month #she was so cool yall #and so weird #they got married twice by the way once when Massachusetts legalized it and once when New Mexico did #they hiked the grand canyon together #they had a european river cruise planned for this fall #she was 89 and she wanted to see the whole world with her wife #and they were working on it #literally i thought they were roommates #and there was only one bed
