Currently doing one of my deepest exposures yet and couldn't resist sharing a sneak peek. This is part of a supernova shockwave as it rips through interstellar space.
I haven't even touched the saturation slider- this area is so dynamic it naturally has strong color separation
Hace dos mil años, los ingenieros de Pompeya resolvieron un problema que hoy se resuelve con farolas. Lo resolvieron con física básica y piedras blancas.
Las calzadas romanas de Pompeya están construidas con bloques de basalto volcánico, la roca más abundante en la región del Vesubio. Son duros, resistentes al desgaste y oscuros. De noche, con antorchas escasas y sin iluminación artificial sistemática, esas calles eran prácticamente invisibles.
La solución fue incrustar fragmentos de cuarzo o caliza blanca, minerales de alta reflectividad, entre los adoquines. La luna llena en el Mediterráneo es suficientemente brillante para que esas piedras funcionen como una cadena de puntos luminosos que trazan el camino. No iluminan. Reflejan. Pero en una ciudad oscura, la diferencia entre ver y no ver dónde pones el pie puede significar la diferencia entre llegar a casa o romperte el tobillo en una alcantarilla.
Las calzadas romanas incluían además bordillos elevados y piedras de cruce a mayor altura, visibles en la fotografía, para que los peatones pudieran cruzar sin pisar el agua y el estiércol que corría por el centro de la calzada. Los carros dejaban surcos exactamente donde debían dejarlos. Todo era un sistema de ingeniería pensado para funcionar a cualquier hora.
Esta calzada lleva en pie casi dos mil años. El Vesubio la enterró en el año 79 d.C. bajo cuatro metros de ceniza y la conservó casi intacta. Cuando los arqueólogos la descubrieron, las marcas de ruedas de los carros romanos todavía eran visibles en los bordes de los adoquines.
Una calle que nadie usaba desde hace veinte siglos. Y todavía funciona.
@Legacy411 Makes two of us. Saw them in Joburg last year, alongside The Offspring, the latter being infinitely more entertaining. That lead singer of GD is a creepy, nasty little shit,with way too much make-up and hairspray, and a severe case of TDS.
Commie Americans are going to realize that once the White Right decides to chimp out, it’ll be 10x what’s going on in Ireland
They won’t stay docile forever. Peace has been nice but we’ve been used & abused. Gen Z has almost no hope for the American dream. Gen Alpha is worse off.
It’s only a matter of time, and it’ll be your fault. The suicidal empathy, the multiculturalism, the abuse of our justice system, the Marxist anti white teachings
This Country was created by Christian men & it appears it’ll have to be saved by Christian men.
I never imagined a Somalian migrant pinning down a helpless White man on Belfast streets, savagely sawing at his neck to behead him in cold blood, would be something we’d see in the West.
Brave White locals rushed to save him, striking the invader, but a terrified woman yelled, “There’s a cop! Back off!”
Because in the UK, the White victim is seen as the aggressor.
This is the deliberate genocide of our race in our own homelands.
Fight like hell for our children’s future.
Your body makes most of its own cholesterol. Eat less, and the liver makes more. It will not be talked out of it.
- Every cell wall is built from it.
- Every steroid hormone is built from it. - Testosterone, oestrogen, cortisol.
- Vitamin D is built from it.
- Your brain is sixty percent fat and runs on it.
This is repair material. The body guards its supply because its life depends on it.
In 1977 we declared war on it.
Testosterone in men has fallen ever since.
Vitamin D deficiency is now everywhere.
One in three older adults takes a drug to suppress the very thing the body is fighting to keep.
In the old, high cholesterol tracks with living longer, not shorter. That never makes the leaflet.
You were handed a number and told to fear it.
Nobody mentioned it measures how hard your body is working to keep you alive.
Quinoa arrived wearing a full halo: ancient, complete protein, Andean, an entire UN International Year to itself. The first problem is that it is not a grain at all. It is the seed of a goosefoot, a weedy cousin of spinach and beetroot, which tells you everything about the chemistry it carries.
Every seed is wrapped in saponins, the plant's own pesticide. Bitter, soapy compounds that foam in water, irritate the gut, and can punch holes in cell membranes. This is why every bag orders you to rinse it until the water runs clear. You are scrubbing a chemical weapon off your health food before you are allowed to eat it, and nobody blinks.
Rinse the soap away and the seed is still armed. Like its cousin spinach, it is loaded with oxalates, the calcium-binding compounds that build kidney stones. It packs roughly a gram of phytic acid per hundred grams, which clamps onto the iron, zinc and magnesium the label brags about and marches them straight out of you. Then trypsin inhibitors to block protein digestion. The famous complete protein spends the whole meal confiscating its own minerals.
So the sacred ancient supergrain is a soapy weed seed, armed to the teeth, that you must decontaminate at the sink before it is fit to eat.
Five thousand years of wisdom, and the instructions still start with rinsing off the poison.
@HistorySAZAR Modern men really have lost a sense of elegant masculine fashion. Look how smart these gentlemen are dressed. Also they look trim and healthy, not bloated, obese and greedy.
Britain had a moment of silence for George Floyd. Our politicians kneeled en masse to show their outrage at his killing. "I can't breathe" became a slogan.
George Floyd died on the other side of the world. He wasn't British.
Henry Nowak *was* British and his treatment by the police was shocking and negligent in the extreme. Yet there is no minute of silence. There is no coordinated public campaign. There is no kneeling at sporting events.
And we all know why.
During the summer of BLM, some people said "All Lives Matter". This was treated as the highest form of racism and anyone who said this was immediately cancelled. Why? Because the people in charge don't actually think all lives matter in the same way.
They have created a racial hierarchy of victimhood where a career criminal who died through mistreatment by police in a foreign country with 0 evidence of racism like George Floyd is automatically sanctified because of the colour of his skin.
And Henry Nowak, a British man, one of ours, is automatically dismissed and ignored because of the colour of his.
This is the ugly fruit of so-called "anti-racism", an obsession with race that has created a two-tier society which treats people differently because of the colour of their skin.
This needs to stop.
Underrated benefits of carnivore:
- Resistance to sunburn
- A stronger immune system
- Joints that stopped filing complaints
- No 3pm crash face-down on the desk
- Body odour that just quietly left one day
- Stable mood, even on a Monday
- Sleeping like a stone and waking before the alarm, irritatingly cheerful
- Not thinking about food every 90 minutes like a malfunctioning Tamagotchi
- A grocery bill with four items on it
- Reading every food label and audibly scoffing in the aisle
- Becoming genuinely insufferable at dinner parties
- The growing suspicion that you've been lied to about nearly everything
- An unshakeable belief that a ribeye could fix most people's problems, including geopolitical ones
- The quiet confidence of a man who has not had a bowl of cereal for four prime ministers
Yes it is, look at Japan. It is about 1000 years ahead of the West in every social aspect. It advanced 500 years while the West regressed 500 years, back to the Dark Ages.
Mixing cultures doesn't work. Take action to save yours before it is but a memory. Prepare for ultra-violence, just make sure you're armed, trained and ready... Oh wait, you surrendered your guns, didn't you..?
