How many states of matter are there?

ohyeahfacts:

Three surely? Solid, liquid and Gas? Actually, it’s more like fifteen. Although the list grows almost daily, some examples are:

  • Solid
  • amorphous solid
  • liquid
  • gas
  • plasma
  • super-fluid
  • supersolid
  • degenerate matter
  • neutronium
  • strongly symmetric matter
  • weakly symmetric matter
  • quark-gluon plasma fermionic condensate
  • Bose-Einstein condensate and
  • ‘strange matter’

ack, now I’m going to be googling this all night.

Crowd Sourcing

glossylalia:

Do any of you Rum Tum Tumblrs know of any indie folk/bluegrass band? Help a sister out!

Mei, halp!

AUUUGH.  THE PRESSURE.

Uhm.

I have no idea what you want, really, and in my head, folk and bluegrass are such LARGE and ALL ENCOMPASSING genres that might mean something different to different people.  Well, folk is, at least… okay, I am a bit of a jackass when it comes to music.  (breathe)

HERE HAVE SOME RANDOM STUFF - it’s all independent labels or no label music.

Chick Alt-Folk/Art Music (yes, art music, I told you I was a jackass!)

True story

I am at the gym watching a news channel on mute. It showed a group of men on tv all seated together. One of them floated up toward the ceiling before one of his companions dragged him down.

At first I thought this was a great metaphor for the rapture. Then I looked at the headline. It was the popes first address to space and those were the astronauts.

Please Note

It is now 6:06 PM in Jerusalem.

I think we’re all okay. 

I know you’re all relieved.

THIS NEEDS A TITLE.

… what’s that supposed to mean? (wide-eyed)

Here is the activity I have seen from you on Tumblr the last two days:

  • you Liked a screen shot of Casablancas asking Albert Hammond Jr. if he was stoned
  • you yelled about zombies and everybody going to die

… I don’t have an appropriate .gif to throw here.  Since I think you’re either sleep deprived or smoking the reefer, this will have to do:

okay.

1. that “like”, uh… was by accident.  For the last four or five days I have been accidentally liking posts on my iPhone because my scrolling finger passes over the wee heart thing and kaboom! liked! and I haven’t had the heart to “unlike” because … I do not know, I am worried I am going to hurt people’s feelings or something. 

2. Zombies are going to kill us, and we are all going to die.  Alternatively, we may all die because of a major war which rips a hole in the ozone layer.

3. I would have posted this much more quickly, except I keep staring at that gif and get mesmerized.  I am DEFINITELY sleep deprived. 

4.  Work might be calling me in 3 hours.  someone pity me. (possibly not the person AT WORK RIGHT NOW - but you know)

Okay

I just watched Resident Evil: Afterlife, followed by the Book of Eli.  Now I am going to bed.

Please try not to either let out the T-Virus or rip a hole in our ozone layer while i sleep, okay?

PS - Work, try not to call me.  I need my goddamned beauty sleep.

<_<

>_>

WE’RE ALL GOING TO DIE.

Euthanasia Coaster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia → en.wikipedia.org

m1chaelll:

The Euthanasia Coaster is a concept for a steel roller coaster designed to kill its passengers.

YEAAAH. I’m sure there’s easier/better/whatever ways to die LOL omg I’d DIE if I went on it

Does anyone else ever stop and marvel at the breadth and variety of human invention?

A roller coaster which kills people.

I think there is a very good short story in this concept, preferably written in the style Richard Bachman.
