lmao are u kidding me this was at 200 notes last week what happened where did all these people come from
IM NOT CRYING YOUāRE CRYING SHUT THE FUCK UP
[transcription:
Have you ever wondered about like cave paintings?Ā Like, āWhat were they doing?Ā These donātā¦Ā look very good,ā -chuckles- In fact, almost every cave painting has Spaghetti Lines, which are webs of lines drawn over-top images, which you can see here.
-picture changes to a grayscale image of a deer standing in tall grass-
And hereās an example of natural Spaghetti Lines in nature, but weāll get to that in a second.
-picture changes to a photo paleolithic drawing of a mammoth.Ā Alongside the photo is a tracing of the drawing, to clarify the lines-
The second weird thing is like sometimes animals are given extra body parts, like here the mammoth has two trunks.Ā And here, thereās a drawing of an antelope or a deer, it looks like, that seems to have two heads.
For a long time, people would assume like maybe the Spaghetti Lines were just some kind of paleolithic graffiti, and maybe the animals were these kind of religious creatures that they had mythologized.Ā But then, in 1993, a German scholar went into this cave in southern France, and it changed everything.
Unlike the other caves he had been to, this one was very poorly funded, so it had no artificial lights, and he had to be guided in by a local farmer, with nothing but a flickering lantern to guide his way.Ā Here is how he described the experience.Ā
He said, āM. Lapeyre finished his story and wanted to move on.Ā I encouraged him to remain and to slowly swing his lantern back and forth a few feet from the cave wall.Ā As he moved the light, I saw the colors of the tectiform begin to shift.Ā When the lamp arced to the left, the blacks faded, the browns became red and the red intensified.Ā When the light moved to the right, the pattern reversed, creating a shifting color scheme. Moreover, the engraved lines under and around the tectiform became animated.Ā Suddenly, the head of one creature stood out clearly.Ā It lived for a second, then faded as another appeared.Ā The spaghetti lines were no longer a confused two-dimensional pattern.Ā Rather, they became a forest or a bramble patch that concealed and then revealed the animals within. By firelight, a secret of the cave painters was exposed.Ā In the space of a few moments, I saw cuts and dissolves, change and movement.Ā Form appeared and disappeared.Ā Colors shifted and changed.Ā In short, I was watching a movie.ā
Understood this way, the antelope with two heads, under the dance of the firelight, is an antelope going from grazing to checking for predators.Ā And the mammoth with two or three trunks becomes a mammoth in motion, swinging his trunk.
Thereās something beautiful to me about knowing that hundreds of thousands of years ago, ancient humans descended into the depths to watch movies.

I heard about this recently and about lost my fucking mind. I am begging someone to actually film the effect so we can see it for ourselves!
@lucithefer
here is a video showing some examples of this
Animation is one of the oldest kinds of art in human history and yet people treat it as insignificant

Squidolus [Day:979 Hour:12]
I hope he wins the lawsuit, a police officer was finally doing the right thing and they penalize him for not being a racist monster!
his name is stephen mader and not only did he refuse to shoot, he actively wanted to help the man (ronaldĀ ārjā williams) because he could tell that he was only acting out because of mental illness. rj williams was suicidal and holding an unloaded gun and, while mader didnāt shoot him, a fellow officer (ryan kuzma) did and murdered him on the spot. here is the sourceĀ and hereās to hoping rj williams gets justice
āSaying the words āJust shoot meā sent up the red flag that he was just trying to harm himself and no one else ā¦ Thatās what made me make my decision. He needed helpā I hate this fucking world. The guy was actually trying to do his job by actually desculating the situation the right way (desculating these days apparently just means shoot them) and was fired for āfailing to eliminate a threat.ā
HE WON THE LAWSUIT AND GOT $175,000
I read this whole story. It is wild !! The conversations between him and his ex coworkers about what went down that day š§š¶
Listen to it all here:
A shocking story of police and lethal force. Just not the one you might expect.
when I say there are no good cops, this is part of the reason why.
āgood copsā lose their jobs for doing the right thing.
āgood copsā die mysteriously after whistleblowing.
āgood copsā are forced to choose between their livelihood and becoming just like the rest.
Hate violence disproportionately target BLACK transgender womenĀ

On the morning of August 7, 1995 the popular 24 year old hairdresser named Tyra Hunter was on her way to work as a passenger in a car. That vehicle ended up being involved in an accident at the corner of 50th and C streets in Southeast DC. Tyra and the driver had been pulled from the smoking ruins of the vehicle by onlookers and were lying on the ground when fire department personnel arrived at the scene. The neighborhood began gathering to watch as a male firefighter began treating Tyra for her injuries. That is, until he cut open her pants leg and noted she had male genitalia. At that point, according to eyewitnesses, the firefighter, later identified as Adrian Williams stood up and backed away from Tyra. She was semi-conscious, complaining about pain and gasping for breath as he was quoted as saying by one witness, āThis bitch aināt no girlā¦Itās a nigger, it got a dick.ā Williams began joking with the other fire department personnel at the scene as the bystanders pleaded with them to resume working to save Tyraās life.Ā Tyraās treatment was discontinued for 5 to 7 critical minutes while bystanders pleaded for them to resume treatment. Finally an EMS supervisor arrived and resumed treating Tyra. She was rushed to DC General Hospital where she arrived at 4:10 PM. But the nightmare was just beginning for Tyra. The DC General Hospital ER staff compounded the insulting neglect of the fire fighters. A doctor refused to treat her and she died of blunt force trauma at 5:20 PM in the now closed hospitalās emergency room.

Chanelle Pickett, an African-American transsexual woman, was strangled to death at age 23. Chanelleās murder graphically illustrates the connections between violence and pervasive employment discrimination. After being bashed by co-workers and experiencing discrimination from her job - along with her twin trans sister (after both being outted as trans) and falling on hard times, Chanelle begin dating a man named William Palmer. While William Palmer tried to deny that he knew Chanelle was transsexual, or that he enjoys the company of transsexuals, heās as familiar to the Boston transgender community that frequented the bar as Norm from Cheers was. He not only knew what and who a transsexual was, he frequently dated them. Chanelle and Palmer had been seeing each other for some time and they had met at Playland on a number of occasions. Friends say that she really liked Palmer and wanted to have a more serious relationship with him. Palmer had written a letter to Chanelle not only expressing his affection for her, but had promised to help her get back on her feet and to take care of her. With this overwhelming evidence, the letters to Chanelle and being seen in the company of her and other transwomen prior to the murder, Palmerās defense attorney came up with a then new variation of the āhomosexual panicā defense.

These were only some black trans women who have been murdered. So many are unidentified, not reported in news and ignored in general. They are denied employment not only for being black but for being transgender. They are profiled by police not only for being black but for being transgender. They are murdered not only for being black but for being transgender.
Why is no one talking about what happened in SĆ£o Paulo yesterday?
The sky turned completely black around three in the afternoon partly because of smoke coming from the Amazon rainforest, WHICH IS 2300 KILOMETERS AWAY FROM THE CITY, where the government has greatly increased the amount of land being burned for profit. People are getting sick, animals are dying, native territory is being lost to the flames.
This is what the sky looked like in my city yesterday, in the early afternoon.
It got so dark so fast the city had to turn on the lamp posts and night lighting.
Please talk about this. Reblog this post, non-brazilians especially.

I wake her and she beep. š This is Touka.
I dream of this sort of bed-to-body ratio
Good witches donāt litter
In this House, we all love the earth and take care of her. We ā» and hug trees
This also needs to include types of offerings you make - please donāt leave anything that will harm the environment šš²š»š
Iāve hexed people for littering in Hampstead Heath (itās a large park/woodland by me that I do magic in.) one particular example was when I went to pick up some random ripped journal pages strewn everywhere (I usually just pick up the litter to dispose of it properly myself) but I stopped midway cause there was a RANK smell from the paper and the person used it as toilet paper cause they justā¦ took a dump in the woods.. like wtf there were some toilets not that far away. And the paper was kind of sheen like not something that could break down easily as if it was coated in something synthetic. Plus since it was a light material the wind was like scattering the shit covered pages across the woods.
Ā Well guess who used that as a taglock lol you want to scatter a bunch of garbage everywhere and take a dump in the park I hope life takes a dump on you back.Ā
Man sees crab for the first time.
in case you havenāt heard it today, or donāt fully realise it yet: i promise you that most people in this world are kind, loving and understanding. the people around you want you to succeed, they do not want you to fail. your friends donāt hate you, they love you, and they want to see you grow and prosper.Ā
the world is not as bad as it seems. donāt forget that.
Sounds fake but ok
good news: itās not fake. everything i said is true. being dismissive towards good things is a damaging mindset to have. youāll feel a lot better if you have some trust and if youāre willing to consider optimistic viewpoints.
Is this what non depressed people feel like ? Damn. Youāre so lucky
iām extremely mentally ill and extremely depressed at that. deflecting good advice that encourages you to think positively about life by claiming that the person who said it is not depressed (when i very much am) is also a very damaging mindset to have.
OP is the opposite of the āThen Perishā meme. All of OPās replies read as āThen Prosperā.
