Intoxica

holymoleculesbatman:

An induced fission reaction. A neutron is absorbed by a uranium-235 nucleus, turning it briefly into an excited uranium-236 nucleus, with the excitation energy provided by the kinetic energy of the neutron plus the forces that bind the neutron. The uranium-236, in turn, splits into fast-moving lighter elements (fission products) and releases three free neutrons. At the same time, one or more “prompt gamma rays” (not shown) are produced, as well.

Can we take a second to say THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts, to all of you, for making our first couple of weeks here in the Tumblr-sphere so fun? We’re loving the comments, reblogs, and questions from you guys, so keep ‘em coming! We also appreciate the feedback you’ve been giving us about how to make our Tumblr even better. We’ve heard from a lot of you about the importance of making our Tumblr a safe space for folks across gender and sexual identities. To help make that happen, we’re going to be using some gender inclusive terms here. Here’s a quick rundown:

Gender refers to society’s expectations about how we should look, think, and act as girls and boys, women and men. It’s different from our sex, which is biological, and includes stuff like our genetic makeup, our hormones, and our physical parts (like our genitals). Gender identity is how we feel about our gender and gender expression is how we convey those feelings in the ways we dress, behave, speak, express ourselves, and more. 

Transgender is a gender identity that differs from conventional expectations based on a person’s biological sex. Transgender is a big term that can include lots of different bodies and identities. Some transgender folks have surgery and/or take hormones to alter their physical bodies to match their gender identity, and this process is often called transitioning. Transitioning can also mean changing your gender expression, using different pronouns, etc. 

Cisgender is a gender identity that is consistent with conventional expectations about a person’s sex. Cisgender refers to people who identify and present as the gender they were assigned at birth. 

If you haven’t thought about gender much, some of these ideas might seem really new and maybe a little confusing. We came across The Genderbread Person, a visual tool that helps explain some of these concepts. It’s just one of many gender models, and while it’s probably not perfect (some might say it’s  a little too binary. I mean what if you feel like you don’t fit anywhere on some of the spectrums?), it’s a good starting point in helping folks understand that people aren’t always just male or female. 

Thanks to all of you for making us better and smarter. We know this is just the beginning.

The fundamental misconception here is about the dynamics of courtship. Men are the ones who are supposed to be the aggressors. There may be exceptions to the rule, but 9 times out of 10 the man is obligated to do the initial footwork. Go to a dating website and see how many women get messages versus men. It’s the nature (culture?) of the beast that guys are on the offensive and ladies are on the defensive.

Women are just tired of having to defend themselves. I get it, but they can’t say that they understand a guy’s POV, especially when she forces her point by insulting his intelligence. Take a step back, lady. Fuck. Sometimes “feminism” turns women into uncompromising, angry bitches. Where in these comments is that guy being a dick? He’s not. He’s being sincere. Just because you don’t understand him doesn’t mean he’s stupid. All you’re doing is turning misogyny on it’s head by being a raging asshole.

he’s being an ignorant asshole

just because a guy is nice to a girl, does not mean she owes him ANYTHING

I know I submitted this a long time ago and I just had to respond.

who thought that this was a good idea? “i’m not racist, but I’m going to compare natural black hair to cancer and say that all people who wear their hair the way it NATURALLY GROWS OUT THEIR HEAD look like runaway slaves”

I love that in “post-race” america, people can say this shit and believe that its legitimate. that they aren’t actually making fools out of themselves.

It is incredibly fucked up for someone to be telling black women what to do with their own damn bodies. And jesus christ, natural hair is not ugly. The girl in this picture is fucking beautiful, especially her hair! OP is a racist scumbag.

Racism and body policing in the same post! Woo!

That person in the photo is gorgeous and their hair is amazing. Op is a racist shit.

OPs like this give me reason to be a misanthrope. Fuck you, you racist fuck.

what the actual fuck

at times i cant even with white people policing my body and making us feel even more inferior

THANKS OP

hint: if you ever feel the need to tell someone you’re not racist, you’re probably racist
