I really hate the Idiot Nerd Girl meme, so I decided to stage a cheerful coup with the aid of some friends. Join us?

‘roly poly’, designed by the design incubation centre at the national university of singapore, are a pair of egg-like objects
that mirror each other’s movements, even when physically separated. two people thus can sense each other’s presence
despite distances across the world: a tap of one half will create a simultaneous reaction in the other.if i’m ever in a long-distance relationship, i want them.
Just imagine…You’re in your room, at night, feeling lonely and missing your far away partner. You’re thinking about them and wondering if they’re thinking about you. And then your egg suddenly leans and you feel a bit ridiculous, feeling so happy from a wobbling egg, but you still smile brightly at the knowledge that halfway around the world they are thinking of you and watching their’s sway too.
QUANTUM ENTANGLEMENT.
Thats so fucking cool holy shit science
but if you throw it does it fly accross the room and accidentally kill your lover
There are two types of people

Did you know that you can convert old wine and liquor bottles into self watering planters for a little window garden? Be careful when cutting glass, score one single circle around the bottle, then alternate between hot and cold water on the upper portion until it literally pops right off. Always wear eye protection as glass is unpredictable and tends to shatter, sometimes even if you do everything properly. Don’t forget to sand the edges down when you’re done so you won’t have to worry about future accidents.
Please note that those are strings hanging down from the dirt, they function as wicks to keep the moisture level in the dirt in the optimal range. As the soil and the top of the strings dry out, more water gets sucked up through the string just like in the xylem of the plants themselves.get me an old vodka bottle
or a new one and we will make it an old one

What they did not want you to ever find out is that your generation, the generation born between 1980-1995, actually outnumbers the Baby Boomers. They knew that if you ever turned your eye towards political reform, you could change the world. They tried to keep you sated on vapid television shows and vapid music. They cut off your education and fed you brain candy. They took away your music and gave you Top Ten pop stations. They cut off your art and replaced it with endless reality shows for you to plug into, hoping you would sit quietly by as they ran the world. We as a society are only as strong as our weakest link. Give ‘em hell, kids.I’ve never loved a post so much in the history of tumblr
