she appeared in a dream i had recently. true to Inara's character, she was nothing but pure class. it was a good dream.

automatic reaction jokes are the funniest jokes...

also, anymore? what the fuck? i'm not going to tell you that you can't use it like that, but it certainly is unusual. normally i only hear "i'm not doing such and such anymore." not "i'm doing such and such anymore." is that a texan thing?

do people genuinely take pleasure from making jibes about different schools? it just confuses me.

agreed, some of us are the complete opposite of our country-dancin', beer-drinkin', liberal-hatin', concealed-handgun-carryin', bible-thumpin' stereotype. but if you're not going to school there, then there really isn't any reason to go there. hence, i am living in "fat people" for the summer.

also, "we" is correct in this case, not "us." just trying to help out a fellow Ag.

A piece I painted illustrating the harmonic series by theMarbleRyein mathpics

man i don't even know anymore. i spent like 15 hours on this thing over the last few days and am kinda burned out on it. i have to be content with any mistakes i made because there's no going back. the textured background i did on the right means that if i want to change anything, i basically have to redo that entire half of the painting, and that's not something i'm willing to do. series, sequence, totally wrong about the wavelengths...it's a bit of a mess. also, what the hell is 1/2 2/3 3/4 anyway? what i should have done was wavelengths over the main wavelength. that would've yielded 1/2 1/3 1/4, and the whole thing would make much more sense. but like i said, it is what it is and i can't change it now

well shit... oh well, the majority of the people that see it at the exhibition will just smile and nod and say "look, how pretty!" thanks for your explanation though! i wish i had found that website in my minimal research before starting this project.

Vatican cracks down on American nuns, for spending too much time helping the poor, and not enough time fighting gay marriage by patpendin atheism

[–]theMarbleRye 16 points17 points ago

The LCWR also said that assertions made by speakers at LCWR conferences are not necessarily their own. The Vatican called that response “inadequate” and unsupported by the facts.

because we all know that the vatican is concerned with evidence-based statements

A piece I painted illustrating the harmonic series by theMarbleRyein mathpics

[–]theMarbleRye[S] 4 points5 points ago*

for an exhibition of math related art

the natural horn can only play notes for which the standing wave vibration has a node at both ends of the tubing. the list of frequencies divided by the successive frequency gives rise to the harmonic series 1/2, 2/3, 3/4, etc.* so called because it is found in music. the painted piano keys show how the notes sound closer together to our ears, even though the difference in frequencies is consistent.

*Edit: some nonsense that i made up. i should have done wavelengths over the tube length. that would've yielded 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, and the whole thing would make much more sense. sorry guys, it's been a while since i've had a class where we actually talk about sequences in detail and not just "let x_n be an arbitrary convergent sequence in X"

oh, so you like Indiana Jones? that's interesting, considering you're the worst Star Wars fan ever

i was once told, "the more you know a particular subject, the less you understand how others don't" what are you some things you're proficient in and cant believe other people cant grasp? by jasionesin AskReddit

i actually can't comment on this yet as i have consumed probably around 3 or 4 ounces of beer in my life. but i'm sure there are others among us who know from experience what beers go with what chocolate
