the sound of ice while wild skating - Michaela Scalisi

[creditednature]

a lot of reblogs express anxiety that these sounds indicate the ice is dangerously thin. this is not the sound of ice breaking beneath weight. it's actually the sound of ice deforming, expanding, and contracting! Ice contracts when temperatures lower and expands again as temperatures rise, often during the daytime with sun shining on it. That doesn't mean it's melted through or about to give way.

You could think of the surface of a frozen lake as a very large drumhead or a giant audio speaker. You may not perceive that the drumhead deforms and vibrates when it’s struck, but it does. If lake ice did not deform under your weight or the weight of your car, both would pass through the ice as it shatters. Because ice deforms, you and your car are able to ‘float’ on the ice atop the water [...] Any abrupt change in the ice will create a vibration of the ice surface that will vibrate as it damps out due to friction with the air and water. Sounds of Ice, University of Minnesota Duluth

Always keep off of ice unless you or someone with you has crucial knowledge and experience to be safe, but 'singing ice' is not unusual and not necessarily unsafe.

New reaction image for ‘posting something on the internet and having it be wildly misinterpreted’

No one doing this should be allowed to call themselves a feminist.

JK Rowling deadnamed and posted 'upskirt' photo of trans woman on X

The wealthy author escalated a social media spat that resulted in posting a photo from a 2023 event at the Institute of Economic Affairs in

[solarishashernoseinabook]

Let's not beat around the bush: Children's author JK Rowling sexually harassed a woman. In some jurisdictions, this would count as sexual abuse. JK Rowling has committed a sex crime against a woman and fell back on the old rape apologist standby of "she was asking for it".

I hope your nostalgia is worth it

my neighbourhood has never had an ice cream truck. in the summer, we have the knife sharpening truck. it slowly circles the block and rings its ominous bell. i have never seen someone interact with it. it may be that only those marked by death can see it

[sun-and-time]

alex??? this is truly frightening ??

[leafcrunch]

i never really thought about it much until today but you’re right this is honestly a messed up thing for me to be accustomed to

[bellabooisnotagoodusername]

okay if you work in any environment that requires frequent use of scissors, this truck is like Jesus showing up. We cut ribbon and paper constantly at my job and when OUR knife sharpening guy rolls through town, once in a blue moon, we all run after him in the street waving out hands around like children after the pied piper. We carry our shears out to him like bouquets, shaking because we are so excited to have sharp scissors again.

So anyway we may in fact be marked for death in the way all retail employees are, but shout out to knife trucks everywhere.
