Welcome. Petrichor . Note: Header image is from the Japanese artist Sleepy.

We maybe have a ghost in our house that has popped up since we’ve had work done on the walls, and random stuff keeps happening but something keeps opening my hamsters cage and leaving it open so I’ve just had to explain to thin air what a hamster is because as my sister pointed out, my house is old af and my ghost probably doesn't know what a hamster is, I’m also leaving it a note in the hopes it can read. 

just to illustrate, I don’t think my ghost means my hamster harm, it’s just confused 

Confused ghost just wants to pet the soft.

Given these constructions, there is no maximal volume. The volume approaches infinity as the angle approaches 90 degrees.

In fact these formulae are unrelated

the lateral height of a cone is the length of a line segment from the apex of the cone along its side to its base.

try harder.

I’m a math grad student I don’t deserve to be humiliated like this

sorry, it was either you or me :V

I think? But I’m only at undergrad level in mathematics, so feel free to point out if I f@*$ed up. I was never particularly amazing at geometry.

this is entirely correct; very thorough too :3

also this should entirely be accessible to anyone who’s done just enough calculus to talk about maxima and minima of continuously differentiable functions, which means either high school or undergrad calc, depending on your educational path; don’t be so worried ;p

(incidentally you could have skipped from h=l/√3 straight to the answer by using arccos instead of arctan but arctan is a nicer function anyways so w/e)

me looking at this post

i like when ppl reblog posts “so&so just did this by taking adderall” and its usually an amazing or wild feat and i just gotta say, as someone with adhd. this is why my insurance doesnt cover adderall. this is why adderall is classified as a narcotic in my state. im glad yall are havin fun abusing meds i need to live. hope it was worth it.

this post is okay and encouraged to reblog bc yall keep turning a blind eye to this nonsense

Ghost Girl // Kevin Francis Gray

What’s unusual about this sculpture is the uncertainty as to what it means. Moving the veil shows a skeleton and lookin closely at the arms reveals self inflicted scars (maybe not self inflicted). Definitely look him up, Kevin Francis Gray has some beautiful work.

@sixpenceee @sixpenceeeblog thought you might be interested…. quite a creepy sculpture

This is my favorite 

Did a piece of art just cause me to have an emotional reaction

If for no other reason art is there to evoke emotions in us all. This art is beautiful, haunting, heartbreaking and thought provoking.
