Playful Martian Dust Devils

The Martian atmosphere lacks the density to support tornado storm systems, but vortices are nevertheless a frequent occurrence. As sun-warmed gases rise, neighboring air rushes in, bringing with it any twisted shred of vorticity it carries.

[247] I wish physics worked like this

[rthwrms]

How do you create so much beauty with so much confidence? My anxiety always makes me freeze up even if I have a great idea.

here's the secret: it's not confidence at all. in fact i'm extremely anxious myself, and i have very low self esteem. this place of "confidence" doesn't exist. confidence is a feeling that comes and goes. but you can choose to be brave in any situation. and courage comes from taking action, not before.

and the point imo is to choose to love the idea more than you feel anxious about it. and you have to do it on purpose, you have to love it on purpose, over and over again, despite all the bad feelings, despite all the voices telling you to stop. you have to choose to love your idea MORE than you're afraid of it.

this comes through being open and flexible with your expectations btw. you have to open your arms to the idea. you have to embrace it like you really mean it.

the "solution" to anxiety is love. love your idea. trust that the process of making it, even if it doesn't turn out how you expected, will take you somewhere beautiful still. it's worth it.

everything. every so-called failed project. every idea never acted upon. everything. all of it. it's all worth it, i promise.

In physics, Impulse is a force multiplied by a change in time. As a DC fan, I immediately thought of Bart Allen. Change in time… of course they called him impulse.

Rotating flows are full of delightful surprises. Here, the folks at the UCLA SpinLab demonstrate the power a little buoyancy has to liven up a flow.  (Video and image credit: UCLA SpinLab) Read the full article

A little over a month ago, @atomicsuperrobot reblogged some of my old pony art and said they missed it, which made me feel quite nostalgic and keen to do some again. I was abroad at the time, but it's been on my mind ever since. So this week I found some 10x15cm watercolour paper lying round (matching what I drew many of the old pieces on) and decided on Heart Throb to mark the dawn of February. She turned out a little messy, but it was fun to relive the process! ^_^

100 days of productivity

starting 25th October 2023 ending 2nd February 2024

Rules

Success or failure -- just show up

No #ZeroDays -- No matter how hard it feels, do a little thing, a bare minimum. Don't let any day become a zero day

Do at least one PhD-related task everyday

Read a journal article everyday. Skim, AIC, full workout - anything

Weekends are excluded, but counted -- because rest is productive

Learn & practice mindfulness

Take two pictures everyday to represent the day (post them here)

Accountability

Daily update of task list here. Perfection is the enemy of done. So don't overthink, just post - even if it feels half-baked.

-----

I’m currently in the final quarter of my PhD. I feel quite demotivated and I find it hard to gain momentum. So I thought I'll take up an accountability challenge to help me stay motivated and eventually build a routine.

If you are already doing a 100 days of productivity challenge, or would like to take on one, please do comment/like this post. I'd love to have some company and inspiration! Please help me find similar accounts! <3

I’ve been so caught up thinking about the fight sequences and the animation styles and the writing and the antics aand the everything about Spy Family Code White that I forgot about the Ferris wheel. Oh my god oh my god oh my god the Ferris wheel.

Hamiltonian mechanics is the feminine side of classical physics. Its masculine side is Lagrangian mechanics, formulated in terms of velocities (tangent vectors) rather than momenta (cotangent vectors). Lagrangian mechanics focusses on the difference of kinetic – potential energies; Hamiltonian mechanics focusses on their sum.

Once again i did notes (for my fics) instead of working on the very important work i have to do but this time its ok because i meant to take off today and rest anyway.

and besides i did something i had always wanted to do since fricken 2019!

I DID A POWER SCALE FOR THE MP100 ESPERS!!!

As you can see im still missing the 7th division claw members and the awakening lab kids (and others) buts its ok because i did the most important ones!

(also those missing are all around the same level anyway)

As i watched mp100 I ve always classified the espers in 5 categories(excluding mobs own) depending of their abilities in my mind which i put on the side and also they way i understand their powers (aka telepaths/seers/spiritists behaving differently)

(or at least the way i see all of this)

i included notes explainning why i put them the way i did (good luck understanding them) and even how their powers grew during the story!

even thought ive had this cale in my mind for years i never realized how much ritsu grows in it! (even though i did him so dirty lmao)

i made this mostly as a handy reference for myself but if you want to use it feel free to do it (ñ

or to askme if you are curious about anything!

... Except why Teru and Shou got extra lines... I don't even know it myself I just know they make sense

(I think besides their first appearance im also marking their status as of the world dominatiom arc and at the end of the story (dotted lines are the leaves they reach when pushed to their limits... Not recommended))

dunno when ill get to finish this but when i do it ill update it here or maybe in another post and link it... who knows

Edit: although I named the zone "can copy others special techniques" it doesn't necessarily has to be copied.

That zone actually is "can use more than 1 specialized technique".

I put "copy" because I believe each techquine is innate to some psychic somewhere and while yeah you could come up with a technique on your own different than the one you already have I think it's easier to do it once you see someone else doing it. Aka easier to copy techniques than to create them yourselves.

Copying techniques isn't that easy either (remember the scale is exponential) which is why Teru being able to do it on the spot is so remarkable and says a lot about his level of power.

Have to admit, watching skaters do knee slides or otherwise get down on the ice as part of their choreography and bounce back up without looking like their knees and backs are going to self-destruct is far more impressive than any jump.
