jason's hair gaining static as he gets more emotional. excited? his hair is frizzy. pissed off? it's cackling with static. he has a source of electricity on his head now.
(when he sees leo after gods know how long, his hair is just fucking flying and you can see the static buzzing around. it's cute, really, until he has to wait to even hold leo's hand in fear of shocking him.)

Static boy static boy
I tried to get a picture of his 'stache which was fluffed to the max, but he was over it by the time I had stopped laughing and had got my phone out for a pic.

Water Reduces Coffee's Charge
Tumblr media
Grinding coffee beans builds up electrical charge as the beans fracture into smaller and smaller pieces. A few drops of water, though, could cut the charge and improve the brew. (Image credit: N. Van; research credit: J. Harper et al.; via APS Physics) Read the full article

#staticelectricity I think my thread is alive. I was putting my quilting away for the night and noticed my thread sticking straight out and it moved if my hand got close to the bag. LOL

Static electricity is the imbalance of electric charge on a surface of a material. Static means fixed or stationary, therefore it is used in contrast to dynamic (moving) electricity which are in the form of electric currents. Typically atoms are neutral, which means they have the same number of electrons and protons.

Water is Behind the Electrification of Sand
The results of new experiments indicate that surface-adsorbed water molecules are responsible for contact electrification in granular matter, a finding that challenges established models of this phenomenon. 
[...]
When two surfaces come into contact, they can exchange electrical charge. This fundamental phenomenon is linked to some of humankind’s earliest scientific experiments—reports suggest that the ancient Greeks uncovered static electricity after rubbing various materials together. Numerous physical processes are at play when two objects touch. But the mechanism underpinning charge exchange—which is known as contact electrification—has bedeviled scientists for centuries [1]. New experiments by Galien Grosjean and Scott Waitukaitis of the Institute of Science and Technology Austria now bring welcome clarity in this field [2]. By levitating a single particle and measuring its charge after consecutive collisions with a surface, the researchers were able to uncover a connection between contact electrification and water molecules on the particle and the surface.

Those fuckers don’t want me to eat
