I mixed a harmless salt in water (called a tracer, because it’s easy to detect), and injected it into the ground. Then i used a huge pneumatic drill with a special geophysics tool (measuring resistivity) to chase down where the salt was moving before it diluted too much to find. Its called a Tracer Test, and it’s pretty common for characterizing aquifers. What made my test unique was proving the usefulness of a geophysics tool to chase down the changes in geochemistry.

Faster, more responsive than installing a network of monitoring wells ahead of time.

I’ve now told you enough that i may have absolutely given my identity away. Grad level science is a much smaller world than you might think.

Oh, please give me the opportunity. I love boring the shit out of people.

Oh, I have a small collection of figures like this that actually got published in geology papers. It’s a kind of fun game to get them past the reviewers, I guess.

Fair point

To clarify: Feynman could explain it, but can’t dumb it down enough for us mortals.

Nein, es ist meine Schuld. I should click the pic and read first, but the one in Yinzertown just sprung to mind from the headline.

Ooh, ooh! I know this one! It’s in Pittsburgh!

Edit: okay, wrong one. But there is a similar disenfranchised BK in Pittsburgh.

Thank you for some good (ish) news.

Tell me you don’t want my business without telling me to fuck off.

I’m sorry, but I do not want to partake of the “anxiety gas”

I sense a new comic book in the making

Correction:
Phoenix has a Hero.

Malicious compliance.

Always felt to me like I have one foot in this world, and the rest of my whole being in the liminal space. Or like I’m watching the real world through a partially open door, but I’m quite a distance away from that door (down the hall).

I wish I could bottle or teach my ability to fall asleep quickly and completely. I’d be filthy rich. Sorry, everyone. I am the odd one out.

Some days…reality just beats drugs.

Not “nothing” happened. Daphne Galizia, a journalist who worked on the expose, was assassinated with a car bomb. Last year, all former employees of Mossak Fonseca (the Panamanian legal firm that helped create the tax dodge structures for the offending corps) were acquitted.

Those are wasps, buddy, and it’s going to get worse.

A’ight, let’s play this game.
Hungary is not a sovereign country, it’s historically just part of Austria.
