NOW I CAN BE A TRUE MERMAID

I actually did a report on this last year! The substance is called perfluorocarbon and because of its unique nature, it can hold enough oxygen inside of it for you to breathe it. You can breathe safely while inside it, but sometimes the transition from breathing in the perfluorocarbon and the air can be painful or uncomfortable as your lungs try to push the liquid out of them. In Dan Brown’s book The Lost Symbol, the process of reverting back to breathing the air can feel like being birthed.

thank you friend

how the fuck do they know what being birthed feels like

FACT:

This liquid is used in modern torture. It is similar to water boarding. A victim is placed in a small completely dark box. The box is then filled with the liquid. The victim thinks they are drowning as they breath the liquid in. Most pass out from fear at this point or they just sit there in the liquid in pitch black, apparently breathing ‘water’. Often it leads to the thought that they are in fact dead. It is completely terrifying. Then the box is opened and they are violently pulled from it. As said before the transition from liquid to air is none too pleasant. You might be told something like, they resuscitated you and to tell them what you know or they will “drown” you again.

You can “drown” someone and be sure that they won’t be harmed

You all needed to know this. 

holy shit

That went from cool to horrifying is 0.05 seconds

Bringing back to cool now, can you imagine the actually cool implications of this stuff?!

Films with mermaids/fish folk shot more realistically than ever

Child safe swimming pools

Astronaut training

The worlds sickest pool party

Safe physical therapy for disabled/elderly people

TL;DR LIGHTEN UP YALL!!!! SCIENCE IS REALLY COOL AND GOOD!!!!

considering how painfull it seems to be going from water to land, im betting if someone wanted to be in it, it would probably be a permanent life choice

Do Home Depot employees ever wonder what the customers’ projects are? More specifically, do they wonder about mine?

One of my brothers works at Home Depot and the other works at Ace.  I can confirm that they DO wonder.

“So this customer just… went in and bought every single tube of silicone we had.  It wasn’t many, to be fair, but then they also bought a bunch of dirt.  They were really fussy about the TYPE of soil too.”

“They’re a reptile keeper and they’re making a new vivarium.  I can guarantee it.  Ask them what species they keep next time.  I want to know.”

(a few weeks later)

“They keep crested geckos.”

okay but imagine it’s like, a week after the kids move into their dorms, and the laundry room is bursting with soap bubbles for the second time already because none of these 15 year olds knows how to do any household chores, and they’ve been living off unhealthy junk food for the past week, and there’s a mountain of dishes piled up in the sink because they’ve run out of dish soap and no one knows where to get more.

so aizawa, knowing full well that he’s going to regret his decision soon enough, finally decides to give his kids his cell phone number so they can just text him with any questions they might have instead of having to wait until they see him in class the next day.

and no matter how much he threatens them with expulsion, it doesn’t stop the kids from taking full advantage of the new power they have been given.

kaminari and kirishima absolutely send aizawa memes when he knows full well they should be in one of their other classes

mina calls him at 3am once to ask if he has any good brownie recipes, because she can’t sleep, and she wants some midnight snacks, but satou is asleep and she can’t get him to wake up no matter what, and sure she could have googled this shit, but she sucks at baking and needs aizawa-sensei to explain all the technical terms to her

izuku is up late one night, studying for a test, and he has the news on in the background because it’s easier to focus that way. there’s live footage of a villain confrontation that Eraserhead manages to resolve without any civilian injuries, and Izuku sends him a text congratulating him. he doesn’t expect aizawa to respond right away, because he’s currently being interviewed by a reporter, but aizawa has a special notification sound for his students’ numbers, so this man deadass walks away from the reporter mid-sentence to call izuku and lecture him for being awake so late

aizawa is out sick with a cold one day, and present mic covers his class for him. he spends most of his morning trying to go back to sleep, but he can’t help but worry about his kids. he gives up trying to sleep at 11 and gets up to make himself some tea. checking his phone, he sees that he has a pile of of get-well-soon texts from his kids that make him feel all warm and fuzzy inside. an hour or two after classes let out for the day, present mic shows up with a tupperware container of honey daikon that he helped the kids make. aizawa eats all of it despite not really being fond of the dish. present mic wisely decides not to comment. he makes sure to send a thank-you text to all his students.

The zombie outbreak started 2 years ago now you find yourself cornered by a decaying zombie when you do the unthinkable and bite it first when it falls to the floor and grows its skin back and sits up and asks what is going on

This may be the best subversive idea for zombie apocalypse stories i think I’ve ever seen.

“How the fuck did you know that would work?”

“I didn’t, dude, I just fucking panicked.”
