Gravity s Grin : Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity, published over 100 years ago, predicted the phenomenon of gravitational lensing. And that’s what gives these distant galaxies such a whimsical appearance, seen through the looking glass of X-ray and optical image data from the Chandra and Hubble space telescopes. Nicknamed the Cheshire Cat galaxy group, the group’s two large elliptical galaxies are suggestively framed by arcs. The arcs are optical images of distant background galaxies lensed by the foreground group’s total distribution of gravitational mass. Of course, that gravitational mass is dominated by dark matter. The two large elliptical “eye” galaxies represent the brightest members of their own galaxy groups which are merging. Their relative collisional speed of nearly 1,350 kilometers/second heats gas to millions of degrees producing the X-ray glow shown in purple hues. Curiouser about galaxy group mergers?

My dad taught my sister and I when we were young (like 5 or 6) that if a man is attacking you, knee them in the balls. I also make sure to keep my location on my phone, and everyone in my family's group chat can see it. I hate that I have to know all these things to survive as a woman, but it's important.

I wanted to add some more tips that may have not been mentioned here:

If someone tries to grab your bag, instead of pulling and trying to get it back, use their force against them and ram your shoulder into them. Because they're trying to pull something back, they should fall.

If you don't have anything that can be used as a weapon, spitting and biting always helps. (Biting, especially on the hand, can hurt a lot if you put enough force)

If you have a chain bracelet, or chains on your belt or anything, you can wrap it around your fist. Rings, especially ones with embellishments or raised details, can help bruise or scratch your attacker.

If you have a carabiner on your belt loop, water bottle, bag, anything, you can take it and slide as many fingers as you can through, and when punching it can help you, especially if you have other things like key rings or chains on the carabiner.

If they push you down into dirt or by a raised planter box with dirt, you can try to take fistfuls of it and shove it in your attacker's face.

If you think someone is following you at night, take out your phone flashlight or anything else and turn around quickly, and if there is someone it can catch them off guard or make it hard for them to see.

All in all, you'd be surprised about what's NOT a weapon.

that face when the stage manager has a better singing voice then most of the actors...

Making some Instagram alt accounts and decided on making them All For The Game (or All For The Gay iykwim) themed! I have a poll for some current handles, but feel free to suggest more as some might be taken and I'm not sure about the Instagram character limit... (ALSO SPOILERS OBVI! HAVE A GREAT DAY/NIGHT!)

anyways, let me know in the comments if you have any other name suggestions!

Today during rehearsal I was painting something for a run and some of the actors begged me to come back and help them because everyone was missing the set changes. Hey, it's not my fault if NO ONE WRITES IT DOWN!

As someone who has an 'invisible' disease, and who seems 'too young to be disabled,' when I was still on my journey to finding the right meds, I got a thing that allowed me to use disabled spots. (I now don't need it, as I am in remission.) If I was not in the great land of Canada, where our (unofficial) slogan is, "Be nice, we're Canadian." (at least what some people say) someone would have probably asked why I was using a disabled spot or that I didn't look it. Just because I'm not using a wheelchair or crutches or 'look disabled' doesn't mean I'm any less valid.

i hope you guys know defending disabled people's right to exist in public also involves defending disabled people's right to exist in public in ways that others might perceive as annoying, unpleasant, uncomfortable, and inconvenient at times. a blatant example is the "slow walker" thing. someone with tourette's syndrome who has issues with verbally ticcing is likely going to have trouble staying quiet in a public space where they're expected to be and doesn't deserve to be met with anger or punishing behavior for it. autistic children (and some adults) getting triggered into meltdowns due to an overstimulating environment. people with hearing problems having their phone on speaker while on a phone call. a wheelchair user taking up part of the road/sidewalk/aisle. people with autism, adhd, hearing problems, or other things that affect volume control having loud conversations. someone audibly talking to themselves, which can be attributed to many things. motor tics. dyskinesia. ataxia. pseudobalbar effect. the list goes on. some of thus may even be potentially triggering for your own issues if you're someone who's also mentally and/or physically disabled, but if you're well aware of how you can't help your response to it, you should be equally aware of how others can't help themselves either. people who aren't able to be disabled quietly and conveniently don't deserve to be punished or met with anger (or turned into a spectacle) for not deciding to shut themselves away.

And, after I made the announcement on our group chat and pinged all the actors, some of them had the AUDACITY to say;

"Oh thanks, (my name) you're a life saver! People might have forgot their props."

That came from an actor who forgot their costume piece and had to run to get it, and who forgets to put their prop back all the time.

and "THANKS (my name) I'M LAZY"

That came from my friend, who's been on stage crew before. I swear...

Speaking of bad behaviour from the actors, when I was going and doing my rounds and checking everything so we didn't have another mishap, (this show, an actor almost forgot their costume again! Luckily I reminded them to double-triple it!) and they got really annoyed that I was shining my flashlight so I didn't trip on anything. I even had my hand covering half of it! (I attached my flashlight on a chain of carabiners to make the ultimate flashlight)

SPEAKING of tripping on things, while I was going on the stage to stage left, I almost tripped on one of the set pieces we had onstage, conveniently painted... non-reflective black. My shins hurt so much :(

Show Update!

First night show one and done, woo! Still got one more night show tho...

Also, one of the main leading actors was delivering a monologue towards 3 other characters and accidentally did one of their names our of order so just said "and you" but it worked! (I don't think the crowd remembered anyways)

Also, we got our concession stand selling overpriced snacks for the 'experience' so I hope we can get back at least as much as a bucket of paint :/

one litre of paint was like 50 bucks :(

Tumblr Porn Bots Back On The Rise

Hey, just so ya'll know, the porn bots are also adding videos and photos onto their account! Many of which are extremely sexual and highly disturbing! So, if you can tell they are a bot just from the name, BLOCK THEM THERE. Do not, I repeat do not, try to scroll to find more 'evidence,' or you'll probably regret it.

From one Asexual to another, this is a warning.

Sunset on the hill part 3. Vancouver, BC, Canada. July 2022.

Me: I'm not a theatre kid.

Also me: Memorized a whole monologue with my friends in the same high school theatre company and can now say it word-for-word, memorized all the songs in the show i did in December, (even the instrumentals) had backstage dance parties during songs when I wasn't onstage, colour-coded my script so that each actor had a different colour, and talked about the show when i was supposed to be doing something else
