post really does become more profound done to lsd
I've been using "frisson" to mean basically sudden goosebumps caused my a mental or emotional stimulus, particular one you find profound rather than scary. But that's not what it means? It just means a sudden thrill or excitement?? WTF is the word for the thing?? You hear a quote or see a piece of art and it just sends a ripple of sensation down your whole body. It's not ASMR, because that's sustained and just a weird physical reaction. ASMR's not caused by profound emotion or whatever and this is. Is there a word for this???
This is timelapse video footage from the VLT telescope array in Chile.
This is quite possibly one of the most amazing, humbling, beautiful things I've ever seen. At one point I actually burst into tears because the reality of us on this small rotating planet in the vastness of the universe was -- well, frankly overwhelming. You've got to see this. And pass it along.
Incidentally, the light beam seen a few times emanating from the instruments is a focusing tool.
