I AM A NEGLECTFUL TUMBLR-ER
Maybe I should just scan random journal pages and put them here to have something to do.
Reading a book of evolutionary development biology and found out that cyclopia is a thing. Can’t tell if it’s cool or just really fucking scary.
Do they make condoms with prints on them? I wanna see a plankton one. And a narwhal.
Uh, then you’re not a writer.

This is common enough to make me sad :(

Rayleigh-Benard-convection in two dimensions
Simulation of twodimensional Rayleigh-Benard-convection. A fluid of initially uniform temperature is heated from below and cooled from above.
The temperature is color-coded; the color transition black-red-orange-yellow-white corresponds to a transition from cold to hot fluid.
This simulation shows 2D Rayleigh-Benard convection in which a fluid of uniform initial temperature is heated from below and cooled from above. This is roughly analogous to the situation of placing a pot of water on a hot stovetop. (In the case of the water on the stove, the upper boundary is the water-air interface, while, in the simulation, the upper boundary is modeled as a no-slip (i.e. solid) interface.) The simulation shows contours of temperature (black = cool, white = hot). In general, the hot fluid rises and the cold fluid sinks due to differences in density, but, as the simulation shows, the actual mixing that occurs is far more complex than that simple axiom indicates.
Proof that science is better than LSD.
