Issac Newton was a poor farmboy who got sent to school by chance, because his father saved a nobleman’s life and the nobleman wanted to repay the favor by funding his son’s education.
Reblogging again because I DID NOT KNOW THAT. POINT FUCKING MADE.
Y'all ever just suddenly have the overwhelming urge to swim??? Like not actively but you just wanna,,, be in the water and have some Peace
Yes it’s called the mammalian diving response and it’s also why doing face masks and taking a shower is soothing. Our amphibian ancestors used this mechanism to slow down the heartbeat and lower body temperature so as not to waste calories while swimming (which is very calorie intensive). It makes you feel safe because predators are less likely to get you in water than on land. The fish brain is alive and well in all of us.
It’s literally activated by putting water on the face.
I was one of the beginning horror/science posters on this website, with posts that have reached over 3 million notes on this site.
but even the love I received, and the followers I had, the thousands of you couldn’t stop me from leaving because of this:
tumblr user sixpenceee has been bullying me, and kept telling me to leave as she wanted to be the main horror/science blog on here, and because of her huge amount of followers I was pressured to leave.
I have only come back after a year because now everyone is seeing how horrible, and how much stealing she does.
Hi guys! sorry to bring this back, but there is a Youtube video thats gone viral. they copied word for word my tumblr post and turned it into a video, all I want is some recognition,
stealing content is not fun, so if you can comment on their video that I created this originally (2 years before they just made their video) it would mean SO much. I just want to be recognised. dont want their video taken down or anything else , just a link to my tumblr would be great!
