Cat says “To hell with your war, where’s my effin tuna, man?”

How can you say no to a cutie like this? Be careful, or she’ll steal your heart.

It’s goin for a buck currently.

I know I’ve bloggerated this flickr stream before, but I’m doing it again – This is an image made with a combination of the Hubble, Spitzer and Chandra space observatories – known as NASA’s Great Observatories. Hubbie and Spitzie contribute near (yellow) and far (red) infrared wavelengths respectively, Chandie chimes in with X-ray specs (blue and violet).

What are we looking at? The center of our Milky Way – the progenitor of our solar system. If you’re looking for a God, this is a closeup of one of the hundreds of billions of piece’s its currently known to be made of. Compared to the size of the universe, this home of ours (I’m talking galaxy, not the infinitesimal solar system or exponentially more infinitesimal earth) is about the size of an atom.

Think about that for a bit.

Quite possibly the best “Wee Planet” this flickr monster has made so far – look at that geometry! It’s a stereographic projection of an equirectangular panorama – an ultrafisheye look down at some Jodhpurian architecture.

and there’s a microslew more up this morning if you’d like to check ‘em out

kitten + sock monkey bigger than her = yay!

As the first flickr comment said, this is awesome-o. Highly symbolic, this mushroom cloud has nothing to do with a nuke and everything to do with mother earth popping a zit.

i take beeg peekchoor small thing.

There are two more of the exact same area, in different types of microscopy modes, this one here is brightfield, HDR and some photoshop compositing. The other two are darkfield and differential interference contrast mode.

If that’s not the craziest shit you’ve seen today (that’s not computer generated) …

via rachetcat and probably just about everyone else by now. Cuz an octopod thief getting taken on a joyride, man and beast in harmony is truly an amazing site.

way down, deeper and deeper, so deep

I know the feeling.

I threatened and then I went and did it. Virtual desktop on the left connected to the virtual server on the right and running IRSSI for shits and giggles.

A.K.A. I’ve got 99 problems and unfortunately bitches be 3. Or why polygamy is more fun in your head.

Exactly as specified.

It’s been a while. She’s just too cute to resist.

See? There’s a white guy under that black man.
