This should go in School of Fail.I was doing my math homework, when I found this. lololololololol
I’ve been thinking about this for a while. The former Wonders of Life pavilion in EPCOT now sits as a vacant dome aside from a uses for special events every once in a while. This pavilion was once home to Body Wars, a motion simulator comparable to the earlier version of Star Tours, and…
I might post a link to this one over on WOL4EVA. This sounds rather interesting.
Human brain, medial view
There is a better view of the brainstem here. Also we can see the left lateral ventricle (the big cavity) because the septum pelucidum was removed. In the upper part of lateral ventricle a series of fringes corresponding to the transversally cut corpus callosum can be observed. Behind the brainstem there is the cerebellum. Some scientists consider the cerebellum like a computer that controls activities related to balance and motor skills, so that the rest of the brain can focus on conscience.
My current in-joke reaction:
Human brain, lateral view
This is a real human brain fixed in formadehide. Dura was removed for a better visualization of brain circunvolutions. The human brain contains about 100 billion neurons, each making about 1000 synaptic connections with. other neurons.
My current in-joke reaction:
Besides the hype, besides the technical fuckups of NASDAQ, besides the overvaluation and offering too many shares during their IPO, I think the reason Facebook’s stock is failing as much as it is right now is that people have come to realize that Everybody’s Favorite Social Network is just too obnoxious, intrusive, and data-scrapingly assholish in the way it treats everyone from its most ardent users to, sadly, people on third-party platforms like, I dunno, TUMBLR, that perhaps want nothing at all to do with the privacy black hole that is Mark Zuckerberg’s dickishness incarnate but wake up and log on to find THIS UTTER BULLSHIT.
I go on Tumblr to be on Tumblr, Tumblr. Please leave the shitty Facebook tactics to Facebook.

Aren’chai glad that I don’t have an FB? XD
Why your body jerks before you fall asleep
Today in “Things you’ve always wondered but never thought to ask at the right time”.
I have kicked the sheets clean off my bed before. I’ve smacked my wife in the head and I’ve sent my dog flying. All because of involuntary jerks at the brink of slumber. Scientists think it’s the result of the final moments of a battle between your sleep and waking cycles.
Deep in the core of our brain, a region called the reticular activating system controls our feeling “awake”. Elsewhere, near the point where the nerves from the eyes cross inside your head, the ventrolateral preoptic nucleus senses the cycles of light and dark and shifts our brain to a deep sleep mode.
As your waking motor system teeters on the brink of control at that point just before the VLPO takes over, WHAM, KICK whatthehell?!
Now you know. Sleep tight.
(More info at BBC - Future)
I speculate Buzzy might be sprawling all over the controls every nap session. XD
My little brother got into outer space and stuff so my step-mom bought him a place mat with all the planets on it. When I first saw it, I was upset, because it was newer and so Pluto wasn’t labeled. I was about to say something when I noticed something…
Pluto is there.
The artist remembered Pluto.
Guys…
The artist drew Pluto crying.
Awwwww.
As we all know this is Scrump, she only has a few more days to live due to the bug that laided eggs in her head, but for every like and reblog this picture gets we will donate a dollar towards getting Scrump the much needed surgery she needs to remove the bug eggs from her head.
1000 likes and reblogs will be enough to save this cute little doll, have a heart and like or reblog :)

Turns out the Easter Island heads have bodies, too! Archeologists discovered bodies beneath the 887 stoic faces after 12 years excavating and studying the statues.
“They’re buried up to mid-torso level. So it’s understandable that the general public didn’t have a clue that those statues had bodies,” Jo Anne Van Tilburg, director of the Easter Island Statue Project, told Fox News this week.
While experts have known for some time that much of the stone figures has been partially buried due to centuries of exposure to the elements, “this is the first time that one has been excavated in such a way that the documentation was complete and scientific,” said Van Tilburg.
The Easter Island heads have BUTTS?
Mind = BLOWN.
