WEARD!

I'm a person who has her extreme phases, like at the moment I am having an obsession with Le Hunger Games/le Josh Hutcherson. I love PINK and sitting in Le Coughner (btw, if you're wondering I'm not sitting there at the time I was/am making my blog). SO, peace out... P.S. Just so you know, I'm not French, no offence intended to the French... P.S.S. this-psychic-loves-music and okamihaiiro are awesome so please follow them. P.S.S.S Chowder is my boy friend but my future husband is a pair of eyeballs (btw, the person whose eyes I'm referring to is the evil guy from Terranova, whose real name I cannot recall at the moment) BTW, THIS BLOG IS TOTALLY NOT A JOKE. So peace out once again.

OK BUT LIKE imagine a little muggle-born of the modern age who doesnt know they have magic (like 5-8ish) watching Frozen and they acting out and singing along with Let It Go and it gets to the chorus and HOLY SHIT ICE ACTUALLY CAME OUT OF THEIR HANDS

AND THE NEXT THEY TRY THE SONG RAPUNZEL SINGS TO MAKE HER HAIR GLOW AND SURE ENOUGH

SO THEY THINK THAT BEING A DISNEY PRINCESS IS THEIR DESTINY NOT KNOW THEY ARE MAGICAL BEINGS

The Doorway Effect: Why your brain won’t let you remember what you were doing before you came in here

I work in a lab, and the way our lab is set up, there are two adjacent rooms, connected by both an outer hallway and an inner doorway. I do most of my work on one side, but every time I walk over to the other side to grab a reagent or a box of tips, I completely forget what I was after. This leads to a lot of me standing with one hand on the freezer door and grumbling, “What the hell was I doing?” It got to where all I had to say was “Every damn time” and my labmate would laugh. Finally, when I explained to our new labmate why I was standing next to his bench with a glazed look in my eyes, he was able to shed some light. “Oh, yeah, that’s a well-documented phenomenon,” he said. “Doorways wipe your memory.”

Being the gung-ho new science blogger that I am, I decided to investigate. And it’s true! Well, doorways don’t literally wipe your memory. But they do encourage your brain to dump whatever it was working on before and get ready to do something new. In one study, participants played a video game in which they had to carry an object either across a room or into a new room. Then they were given a quiz. Participants who passed through a doorway had more trouble remembering what they were doing. It didn’t matter if the video game display was made smaller and less immersive, or if the participants performed the same task in an actual room—the results were similar. Returning to the room where they had begun the task didn’t help: even context didn’t serve to jog folks’ memories.

The researchers wrote that their results are consistent with what they call an “event model” of memory. They say the brain keeps some information ready to go at all times, but it can’t hold on to everything. So it takes advantage of what the researchers called an “event boundary,” like a doorway into a new room, to dump the old info and start over. Apparently my brain doesn’t care that my timer has seconds to go—if I have to go into the other room, I’m doing something new, and can’t remember that my previous task was antibody, idiot, you needed antibody.

I finally learned why I completely space when I cross to the other side of the lab, and that I’m apparently not alone.

this is actually kind of great and it’s nice to know there’s something behind that constant spacing out whenever i enter a different place

that awkward moment when deadpool is a better person than you because you would have just stole the pizza and not given a fuck

[octoplus-size-blog]

dead pool isn’t really a villian like, most of his comics  are just being like a slightly mentally challenged selfish 5 year old with an incredibly dirty mind who hits on spiderman all the time and is aware at all times of the forth wall. oh and it is literally impossible to kill him so he gets a bit reckless at times

[babyseraphim]

half of me is like ‘lets get a billion tattoos and wear killer heels and sharp eyeliner and red lipstick and leather jackets and dye my hair super bright colors’

and the other half is ‘lets wear pastel dresses and cardigans and ballet flats and play ukulele and wear cute jewelry’

and i think that pretty much sums up my entire existence
