Have you ever looked closely at a car windshield?

The edge of the glass is painted where it is glued to the car but it has these small dots between the clear and painted glass.

These are there for a reason. When the sun hits the glass the painted areas and the clear areas will absorb heat at different rates. This causes the glass to expand and contract differently putting stress on the glass.

These dots help the glass to warm up more evenly over a larger area so the glass does not suffer stress that could cause it to spontaneously explode.

Fun fact: the Tesla cybertruck doesn’t have these.

Yes, the glass will spontaneously crack or explode in the sun.

also I got a tattoo partially re-coloured today and they bandaged me in veterinary wrap like I’m a sick horse

Not gonna lie, that made me do a double take.

Not because of the vet wrap, it’s great stuff and I keep some at home myself for first aid purposes.

But because that colour is considered euthanasia green in a lot of vet clinics here including mine and we ONLY use it for animals we are euthanising. We will literally continue restraining a squirming dog or cat while someone restocks the drawer if we open it to find only the euthanasia green vet wrap than use this because we consider using it for a healthy patient to be a bad omen…

they’re going to put me down? :(

I really love the r/volcanoes subreddit because most of the posts are just people going “what if a Volcano exploded right now?” “What if twenty fucking Volcanoes exploded near you right now?”

You ever have that “hungry but nauseous” feeling about activities? Like you really really want to do something and you’ve got plenty of fun hobbies and things you could pick from but all of the options turn your stomach so you’re just laying there bored and angry about it.

Disregard that, the painkillers kicked in. Time to get up and go do some various fuckery to my clothes.

ratwarlock Jan 2 Hungry but nauseous cure: drink a cup of juice or something similar to cause a small glucose spike to help you bypass the nausea. Hungry but nauseous (activity version) cure: take a shower/brush your teeth and go on a short walk around the block to help introduce Doing Stuff to your brainALT

A bus may have only a couple of passengers, especially at the beginning or end of its route. But let’s also take fuel efficiency into account.

If there’s one person on a bus because that person cannot or doesn’t want to drive, the bus is succeeding.

Inverted ballpoint pen drawing!! The first picture is what I drew and the second picture is the inverted final piece

I have an important update to this post, for any who enjoyed this drawing, I finally got the opportunity to scan it and I just had to share the scanned versions of it here because it captured the colours astoundingly better than my original photos taken with my phone camera 😅

Certainly still one of my proudest creations to date! :3

the sheer amount of checkmarks and badges after the second person’s url reminded me incredibly strongly of a decorated war veteran
