Senator Exposes Republican "License to Bully" Bill

FlowersInHisHair says...

How hypocritical of @shinyblurry to accuse someone else of having a "heart filled with poison". The ridiculous, hateful and archaic dogma of sin and judgement that you subscribe to is an immoral poison to the modern world, giving rise to absurd and damaging situations like the religious exception to this law.

Equating homosexuals with paedophiles is a cowardly trick of misdirection and a false analogy. They are not the same, and you know it - a consenting homosexual couple harms no-one at all, whereas a paedophile who molests a child causing emotional damage that ripples out into the child's later life and relationships. Your argument is empty.

The famed Cadborosaurus caught on tape?

Skeeve says...

There aren't objects making the wake, the whole "animal" is a wake/wave. What you see to be a head is just a new ripple in the wake. From another angle it would look like this.>> ^moodonia:

You didnt see the objects making the wake? The head and exhalation? I mean theres definitely an animal there, what it is exactly is up for debate.
>> ^Stormsinger:
Looked like remarkably low-quality video of a wake.


M. Bachmann's Husband Says that Gays are like Barbarians

Crosswords says...

'Homosexuals are hot sweaty muscly glistening barbarians that act like savage animals that just see what they want and take and take and they're so rippling hard.... to convert and.... ooOoOoOoooo.'

Traffic Waves

GeeSussFreeK says...

>> ^bamdrew:

this is a bit simplified, to the point of being a bit silly, but I like the experimentation.
I once read about modeling traffic being similar to modeling the movement of compressed gases, and tend to think of it like that.
He is right that it is fun thing to think about from a psychology perspective... everyone is in a vehicle capable of high speeds and on a highway designed to support those speeds, so the expectation is that you'll be traveling at or near the speed limit. The only hold-up then are your 'competitors' out there, also trying to move at an optimal velocity.


Traffic waves are a real phenomena though, usually caused by people following to closely. There is a video here on the sift of such a thing. It is just a bunch of cars all driving around in a circle. Eventually, due to inconsistent speeds, a wave of breaking keeps pulsing backwards. If one driver "ate" the wave, it would dissipate, but it never happened. So, while it is simplified, and perhaps overstated, I imagine some effect of it can be observed, after all, the effects of sudden breaking can causes a wave that will ripple for miles back, I don't see why someone smoothing out that ripple wouldn't have a similar effect.

The progress bar illusion

gwiz665 says...

If you have enough ripples in the right direction, you can make a 27 second event seem to last for almost 30. It's great!

I have a condom with ripples going left. You wouldn't believe how fast it is.

So you seem to finish 11% earlier than you usually do?

I understand.

he is lost. I lost my friend.


honestly he is one in two (1:2) that I have of friends.

loosing him hurts. I claim the other as my friend but not as deep as this guy was. losing him really sucks. more or less it leaves me alone.

I seriously do not like his girlfriend.

They will be broken up within 2 years.

He will possibly come to me for solace, I will not give it. I will tell him I told him he was making a mistake and was to much of a pussy to man up to the facts, He wrote it own burial.


My words are just ripples, I thought this 2 weeks ago, 2 months ago. I know he was gone when I moved out.


thats the way life is.

I am learning a lot lately, things I knew but never grasped. To be alive is to be alone. To be in society.. possibly means to have someone, but to get their...well to get their is pretty damn rocky.

Painting In/On Water

chicchorea says...

Fail again. I was trying to be germanely humorous.

In fact, I find your observations to be penetrating and provocative.

This, cloud art, originated in Turkey and spread throughout the Empire. It is also known as marbling art or marbling paper.

The medium is floating paints on oil covered water, so everyone is right.

Water colors in a new and improved way, new, at least to me.
Excellent find.

I think hes actually using oil paint, on water. Since oil does not mix with water he's able to manipulate it like that and it wont turn into a giant mix of colors. Thats my guess anyway.
edit - After watching a second video of him, I dont think that is water. It seems more viscous than water. As he moves his tools through the solution, there are no ripples or anything like you would see in water. I think its this - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sizing
