One of my coworkers was telling me that they had seen these really cute trilobite plushies at another gift shop and recommended them to the store manager at our museum, which lead to us scrolling through the manufacturer's website together on shift today and SHRIEKING with laughter at the exact same moment when we simultaneously noticed that they sell a giant $100 eurypterid body pillow

Nukekubi (抜け首) — an intriguing yokai, similar to rokurokubi. Unlike their long-necked counterparts, nukekubi’s heads detach completely when sleeping. Unburdened with a neck, nukekubi are much faster and more free in movement. Also much more violent. At night nukekubi’s head attacks people and animals, shrieks, drinks blood. However, if you harm of hide the body, in the morning the head would smash itself on the floor. In daytime nukekubi live like ordinary people, sometimes having no idea about the nighttime revelry of their own heads.

desire actually brings us further away from what we really want. desire creates the duality of having, and not having. if we release desire, and instead be present in joy and gratefulness, if we are open to abundance in all its forms, there is so much more peace.

Milky Way Shows 84 Million Stars in 9 Billion Pixels

Side Note: The two images shown above are mere crop outs from ESA’s recent hit: The 9 Billion Pixel Image of 84 Million Stars. These two focus on the bright center of the image for the purpose of highlighting what a peak at 84,000,000 stars looks like.

Astronomers at the European Southern Observatory’s Paranal Observatory in Chile have released a breathtaking new photograph showing the central area of our Milky Way galaxy. The photograph shows a whopping 84 million stars in an image measuring 108500×81500, which contains nearly 9 billion pixels.

It’s actually a composite of thousands of individual photographs shot with the observatory’s VISTA survey telescope, the same camera that captured the amazing 55-hour exposure. Three different infrared filters were used to capture the different details present in the final image.

The VISTA’s camera is sensitive to infrared light, which allows its vision to pierce through much of the space dust that blocks the view of ordinary optical telescope/camera systems.
