the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.

rats can drive cars btw. if u even care

alleycatboy

fun fact: the lab rats got into the cars and drove on their own free time, even without any treat or reward being offered

fun fact #2: the scientists actually found that the rats stress levels were lowered while driving, implying that rats find cars therapeutic

I love the whole branch of cognitive experimentation that just amounts to “we taught rats a fun new game and they really liked it”

"What an astonishing thing a book is. It’s a flat object made from a tree with flexible parts on which are imprinted lots of funny dark squiggles. But one glance at it and you’re inside the mind of another person, maybe somebody dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, an author is speaking clearly and silently inside your head, directly to you.

Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people who never knew each other, citizens of distant epochs. Books break the shackles of time. A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic.”

- Carl Sagan, excerpt from the 11th epsidode of Cosmos ("The Persistence of Memory")

Don't you hate it when you tell someone to "call or e-mail when you have any questions!" and then they do because naturally I meant "I couldn't be any clearer than I am right now and you should be able to figure it out yourself"
