Sure do
A lot of Invader Zim fans have been asking this question for a while: What ever happened to it? Well, we can answer it! Check out a new show breaking down why Invader Zim stopped airing and how it began.
I'm very very excited about this
This takes me back

Omg this
Christ taught to not lie or be greedy, so to celebrate his birthday I perpetuate a lie to children about a man who promotes materialism and breaks into houses.
“If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning: just as, if there were no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes, we should never know it was dark. Dark would be without meaning.” C.S. Lewis
Yay!
Wow!
This is what I saw on shrooms
It's gorgeous!
Some screenshots from the short movie Wanderers by Erik Wernquist. 4 minutes worth your time.
Ramzy Masri is a Senior Designer for Nickelodeon, and his images of architecture turn our buildings into colorful creations using all the colors of the rainbow.
@burbinerbs-sims maybe?
What if our dreams are just us seeing what the other versions of ourselves in alternate universes are doing?
I really like this
Humans are the only species to evolve consciously. Don’t have claws, so we made knives. Can’t run fast, so we made cars. Can’t breathe under water, so we made scuba sets…

What’s happening at the edge of the Sun? Although it may look like a monster is rampaging, what is pictured is actually only a monster prominence – a sheath of thin gas held above the surface by the Sun’s magnetic field. The solar event was captured just this past weekend with a small telescope, with the resulting image then inverted and false-colored. As indicated with illustrative lines, the prominence rises over 50,000 kilometers above the Sun’s surface, making even our 12,700-diameter Earth seem small by comparison. Below the monster prominence is active region 12585, while light colored filaments can be seen hovering over a flowing solar carpet of fibrils. Filaments are actually prominences seen against the disk of the Sun, while similarly, fibrils are actually spicules seen against the disk. Energetic events like this are becoming less common as the Sun evolves toward a minimum in its 11-year activity cycle.
As a father, this rings true to me.
The best 😁 Happy National Video Games Day!

What is this meteor doing? Dynamically, the unusually short and asymmetric train may indicate that the sand-sized grain at the center of the glow is momentarily spinning as it ablates, causing its path to be slightly spiral. Geographically, the meteor appears to be going through the Heart Nebula, although really it is in Earth’s atmosphere and so is about one quadrillion times closer. Taken last month on the night of the peak, this meteor is likely from the Perseid meteor shower. The Perseids radiant, in the constellation of Perseus, is off the frame to the upper right, toward the direction that the meteor streak is pointing. The Heart Nebula was imaged in 18 one-minute exposures, of which the unusual meteor streak appeared on just one. The meteor train is multicolored as its glow emanates from different elements in the heated gas.
This is too cool

Love these so much
I don't have enough coffee in me to face today. Shouldn't there be a reset button somewhere around here?
This kills me.
The vast majority of toilet paper is either used to wipe the part of your body that smells or the part of your body that smells.
This is beautiful.

This is awesome

Nice!
We already consider the octopus an awesome master of camouflage, but these illustrations by Columbus, OH-based industrial designer and illustrator Gabe Pyle take that capability to a whole new level. According to Pyle, these crafty cephalopods can use their tentacles to mimic the shapes of other animals.
The entire series of 12 Animals [That Are Definitely Not An Octopus] is currently up for voting as a design on Threadless.
