You could get me to cry by just showing me an especially beautiful painting of winter in new england.

@starryxchaos @glukianoff I find it incredibly hard to make this concept intuitive lol. It's just not similar to anything I can observe in reality.

[William Banfield @BillyBamf]

@starryxchaos @glukianoff I guess a follow up question here would be: how can I move faster than the speed of light if I can't observe things around me moving faster than the speed? Is this where length contraction is observed?

[William Banfield @BillyBamf]

@starryxchaos @glukianoff Yeah, IIUC this is the concept of special relativity at work and to me it is still incredibly mind bending.

[William Banfield @BillyBamf]

@Giancoder @glukianoff You observe no time pass when you move at the speed of light but observers in other reference frames observe movement at the speed of light of their reference frame.

So, the speed of light is a governor of the top speed of objects *in my reference frame* is that right?

@HannaCanadia Idk the bagels are very good and people like them because they are good

@turtlekiosk This neighborhood has crazy dangerous driving! I’ve tried to report reckless drivers to the @NYPD104Pct and they flatly refuse to take the report.
