Consider that you can see less than 1% of the electromagnetic spectrum and hear less than 1% of the acoustic spectrum. As you read this, you are traveling at 220 km/sec across the galaxy. 90% of the cells in your body carry their own microbial DNA and are not “you.” The atoms in your body are 99.9999999999999999% empty space and none of them are the ones you were born with, but they all originated in the belly of a star. Human beings have 46 chromosomes, 2 less than the common potato.

The existence of the rainbow depends on the conical photoreceptors in your eyes; to animals without cones, the rainbow does not exist. So you don’t just look at a rainbow, you create it. This is pretty amazing, especially considering that all the beautiful colors you see represent less than 1% of the electromagnetic spectrum.”

what an uncomfortable mindset

Project Unbreakable: Interview: Kaelyn Siversky, Project Unbreakable

adietofbrokenbiscuits:

I’ve tried and tried, but nothing seems to sum up the power and impact of Project Unbreakable as well as a wordless visit to their site. It’s not an easy read - if you’re likely to be triggered by descriptions of sexual assault or rape, I would advise you to exercise…

At first I was confused why there was cheese on the smore- and then I realized THIS IS AWESOME.

For those I’ve grown to love,

We all fuck up and we all grow up and friendship is worth working your ass off and picking up the pieces.

What the city is missing: Thierry Cohen photographs cityscapes and then photographs deserts at night, combing the two to show us what our cities would look like with the lights off. The stars are not enhanced, they are actual photos from relative latitudes that would expose the same starry sky view if it weren’t for light pollution. Click on each photo to see which city it is.

Light pollution and pollution in general

n-a-s-a:

Light Poles can be seen at nights over large cities with different colored lights. They can only be seen during very cold weather (the temperature of -20 Celsius degrees or lower is required), with minimal wind and plenty of tiny ice crystals in the atmosphere.

Literally acting uncomfortable because I feel an odd air coming from everyone else.

None of you see the bigger picture.

It’s like growing older means growing separately but I’m still hoping once we all get there that we will fall back into the easy relationships we had before.

Growing up. Growing together. I want to have faith we all come back. If I can’t have faith in that- I have nothing.
