The distance from Earth to Neptune is 2.7 billion miles. If you traveled at a 1/4 million (250,000) mph it would take 1 year, 2.5 months to get there. Traveling at the speed of light (671 million mph) would take just over 4 hours.
If you circled the earth at the equator 108,430 times, you'll travel the same distance as Earth to Neptune.
And that's just our tiny little solar system, in a tiny little galaxy, in a tiny little cluster, in a tiny little super cluster, amongst many voids vast beyond comprehension, of the known/visible universe.
HONEYBEES (Apis mellifera) construct their honeycombs with wax secreted from glands found on the underside of their abdomen. The honeycomb is regarded as an engineering marvel. Why?
Consider: For centuries, mathematicians suspected that partitions in the shape of hexagons were better than equilateral triangles or squares—or any other shape—for maximizing space with the least amount of building material. But they could not fully explain why. In 1999, Professor Thomas C. Hales provided mathematical proof for the advantage of what he termed “honeycomb conjecture.” He demonstrated that regular hexagons are the best way to divide a space into equal parts with minimal structural support.
By using hexagonal cells, bees can make the best use of all the space available to them, produce a light but sturdy honeycomb with a minimum amount of wax, and store the maximum amount of honey in a given space. Not surprisingly, the honeycomb has been described as “an architectural masterpiece.”
Today, scientists mimic the bees’ honeycomb to create structures that are both resilient and space efficient. Aircraft engineers, for example, use panels patterned after the honeycomb to build planes that are stronger and lighter and thus use less fuel.
What do you think? Did the superior structure of the honeycomb come about by evolution? Or was it designed?
aren't narcissitic people generally diagnosed as being psychotic?
I think psychotics are narcissistic, but narcissists aren't necessarily psychotic.
my sister is a narcissist, and to my knowledge isn't psychotic.
I know my boss is psychotic...that came out first, now I realize she is also narcissistic. both have to do with BPD though.
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.
i understand im only in somebody elses dream but i hate that feeling im human who has feelings and i act upon them if your careless or selfish and dont treasure little things personally if you dont care im not going to either, honestly and theres plenty other fish in the sea its time to grow up and smell the roses bc they do have thorns ''do me this one favor if you care think of me doing what you do and tell me how you honestly feel'' ? tell me.. bc i will if you will if you dont i wont till i run bonsoir im getting off the net and listening to music now..

You've ha-a-a-a-d it with your neighbors! You've ha-a-a-a-d it with your shoes! You've ha-a-a-a-d it with your records! Go'dammit! You've had it, With you-ou-ou-ou-ou!

..... to look after others you must first look after yourself, otherwise if you are poorly your structure will fall apart and then you are no good to anybody and once you look after yourself the most important people come next...then the vast majority.. its alot to do and people wonder why you cant personally ''always'' stop terrorist attacks etc, bc we are looking at the bigger picture and we believe in the hope of ones life dead or alive.....
Don't mix with the devil or his people don't make yourself an enemy of lord bc it will be the devil monopolising politics in the end and I keep telling myself this and I kept on being warned bad is anyone greeting such kinds....
I just found out I'm pregnant!!! We aren't telling anyone yet as it's very early so I needed to tell someone. I'm happy but in a bit of shock as our son is 6 & I had resigned myself to the fact that there were would be no more babies. But here we are. Holy crap!!!! Wish me luck to hold on to my little peanut.

dreamt of my brother last night
and it was a hilarious one

We're all made of this shit.

but i hate that feeling
im human who has feelings and i act upon them
if your careless or selfish and dont treasure
little things personally
if you dont care im not going to either, honestly
and theres plenty other fish in the sea
its time to grow up and smell the roses
bc they do have thorns
''do me this one favor if you care
think of me doing what you do and tell
me how you honestly feel'' ? tell me..
bc i will if you will if you dont i wont
till i run
bonsoir
im getting off the net and listening to music
now..
So yeah, fuck it when it's overwhelming. We're fortunate we can turn it off or turn to something else.
Jingle All the Way, as silly as it is, is on now. Phil Hartman, man. Class act he was. Plus the soundtrack is pretty good.
(Sinbad, I could do without. Apologies to the Sinbad fans out there)
from a good sleep
what did you think about
that..
im going to go listen to music now..
Insomnia is my shadow!
its me ive been sleeping funny hours lately
bc i wake in the middle of the night
perhaps bc its warm..
Those that can be trusted can change their mind.
You've ha-a-a-a-d it with your shoes!
You've ha-a-a-a-d it with your records!
Go'dammit! You've had it,
With you-ou-ou-ou-ou!
to look after others
you must first look after
yourself, otherwise if you
are poorly your structure
will fall apart and then you
are no good to anybody
and once you look after
yourself the most important
people come next...then
the vast majority.. its alot
to do and people wonder
why you cant personally
''always'' stop terrorist attacks
etc, bc we are looking at the
bigger picture and we
believe in the hope of ones
life dead or alive.....
