TIL that the earliest artists were probably female: 'Venus' figures accurately depict what a woman sees looking at her own body

Lucioc

Right, porque claramente mulheres são invisíveis umas para as outras.

Essa está me cheirando a mais uma das várias teorias-bullshit que permeiam a Arqueologia, que é uma ciência que tem uma parte séria (datação, reconstituição de eventos, etc) e outra que é um campo aberto para teorias tiradas do cu.

A *minha* teoria tirada do cu é a de que as estatuazinhas eram o equivalente paleolítico de revistas pornô, e feitas por homens. E porque eram gordas? Lembro da Lila dizendo (quando eu ainda era parte da Maracujá) que ela descobriu que "homem gosta de mulher gorda". =)

China Starts To Make A Power Move Against The U.S. Dollar

Lucioc

O artigo aponta que a China parece ter adotado um plano de ser desvencilhar de uns 50 bilhões de dólares de sua reserva por mês, e em contrapartida se entuchar de reservas de ouro, e o autor acredita que em alguns anos isso poderia dinamitar o dólar.

I died.

Lucioc

Sonho particularmente estranho porque, como alguém observou, nós "nunca" morremos em sonhos, acordamos em situações de morte iminente.

I know a lot of dream stories can get lengthy so I will keep this as short as possible.

So I am sitting on a plane ( I fly a few times a year) and I have an overwhelming urge to get off of it, but I sit there anyway. The plane begins its take off, and right as the wheels leave the runway, I see two people jump out and go by my window. I realize a second later that it was the pilot and co pilot.

The plane climbs to an altitude of about 1000 ft before it starts plummeting. Everyone around is screaming and losing their minds and I just sit there, my heart and stomach in my throat, perfectly silent. All I am thinking as we approach the water at around 350 mph is I am about to die and experience something that nobody will ever know.

The plane impacts, a huge flash of light, then nothing. Silence, darkness, no pain. I stay here for what seemed hours, conscious, unnerved, and wondering where I am and what happened.

This has been a part of my dream for 2 nights now (the one last night also included a bubonic plague scenario) but in both, I die in a plane crash.

TIL that cockle bread was a bread baked by English women in the seventeenth century which was supposed to act as a love charm. The dough was kneaded and pressed against the woman’s vulva and then baked. This bread was then given to the object of the baker’s affections.

Epic new poster for 'Godzilla'

Lucioc

Há uma grande controvérsia sobre se o Godzilla vai ser tão grande assim no filme ou se exageraram no poster. Pessoalmente, no trailer ele parece sim absurdamente grande, tipo do tamanho do centro de San Francisco mesmo... (Para fins de comparação, o edifício piramidal tem 260 metros de altura - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transamerica_Pyramid )

I dreamt of starting a revolution on another planet. Interpretations, meanings, reactions, and criticisms are welcome.

Lucioc

Outro sonho que daria um bom filme - tem um estilo Caverna do Dragão/Senhor dos Anéis, ainda que os elementos tenham uma certa cara de scifi e não de fantasia.

Me chamou a atenção isso aqui: "I had forgotten to take some medication the night before. The medication was supposed to give me more restful sleep, but it also kept me from dreaming for weeks. I feel happier after this dream and had been depressed since using the new medication. I think I value my dream life more than my "waking" life and was having suicidal thoughts without the dreams to make me feel like my life is valuable and worth living." A posição do cara é muito parecida com a minha - eu adoro os meus sonhos! E curiosamente oposta à de muita gente no r/dreams, que aparece desesperada perguntando sobre remédios para parar de sonhar.

I just slept for 16 hours and dreamt of revolutionizing an already super advanced planetary being. I am so excited about it I feel like it really happened, now I feel inspired to plan interstellar and intergalactic colonies and relationships with other intelligent beings in the universe. The prequel to the revolution is just as amazing to the end of the dream. I must have dreamt for hours. At times I woke up to find my body strapped to the bed all sprawled out, but those were false awakenings, I have those a lot. I remember getting on a ship then being assigned to a special mission. I found my essence being being beamed through the universe at faster than light speeds. Stars went by like driving past fireflies or things on the side of the road. I found myself on top of some spire or great big building overlooking the planet. The air was dense and I could not see a sun or star but it was like daylight. I found two jail cells at the top. One cell was labeled to indicate the people in it were autistic. The other cell was for a special kind of autistic beings (not really like humans on Earth). They were considered dangerous to the planet. The specialized beings were the smartest beings on the planet. I freed the specialize geniuses, but I did not have a chance to free the other people, because alarms were going off and people were coming. I lead them down the stairs. Somehow we found our way to the center of the planet. At the center was the leader of the planetary being, or the mind of it. It was a kind of transcendental thing that existed more as a kind of plasma like substance that was non localized and its body was dispersed like a gas that condensed and flowed together. I asked the geniuses to change the world. I knew they could if they worked together. The world there was suffering but I am not sure of the reason or cause of their suffering. The geniuses at the center of the planet had acquired special abilities and could transform into other kinds of beings. There was a bridge over a vast expanse of glowing lava or some ethereal substance or both. The planetary leader/mind thing was at the end of the bridge. I am not sure why we were approaching the being but we were not welcome. The "autistic" geniuses battled the thing and they threw purple lightening kind of energy at it and the leader diminished and disappeared. Shortly after the leader was gone, some ghostly skeleton like beings came to us across the bridge and informed us that the planet needed a leader and they wanted the victors, the geniuses, to lead the planet into the future, they accepted the offer and lead the planet to greatness. I awoke in a daze not and not yet fully grounded back on Earth in my bed. I am still adjusting to my other waking life on Earth. I had forgotten to take some medication the night before. The medication was supposed to give me more restful sleep, but it also kept me from dreaming for weeks. I feel happier after this dream and had been depressed since using the new medication. I think I value my dream life more than my "waking" life and was having suicidal thoughts without the dreams to make me feel like my life is valuable and worth living.

Scientists have developed a chemical which acts as a "photoswitch" that can turn on light-sensitive cells in retinas when injected into the eyes. Each injection in blind mice enabled them to respond to normal levels of light perception. Chemical could lead to new treatment for blindness.

TIL: There is a liquid that you can breathe and recieve enough oxygen to be fully submerged and not drown.

Lucioc

Nos comentários explicam que porém os nossos pulmões não foram desenhados para bombear líquidos muito mais pesados que o ar, e além disso a remoção do líquido depois é problemática. De forma que, apesar do que vemos no "O Segredo do Abismo" e no Neon Genesis Evangelion, isso não é realmente uma opção viável.

A Jewish Funeral? (Dream Interpretation please...)

Lucioc

Finalmente descobri que aquela tampinha que os judeus usam na cabeça se chama "yamaka"!

Hi, first time posting a dream here for interpretation.

This morning I had two dreams that I felt like were happening almost parallel to each other. In the first one, I was rushing to finish a paper I had to do for Philosophy class, and the deadline was getting closer and closer.

That part I don't need help on, the other dream is what I do need help on. While I know there was much more to it, it's all fuzzy to me now, but from what I do remember, I was attending a funeral for who I presume was an old woman. It was an open casket funeral, but I never bothered to look inside... just didn't really feel like comfortable with it.

Me, and some of my family members, were crowded around this casket in a dark church, but it didn't feel like it was anyone that we were all to close to. Then I realized that everyone else was Jewish, and there was even a guy speaking in Yiddish and even wearing a yamaka.

The weird part about all this mostly is the Jewish part. Me and my family aren't Jewish, and are we aren't that heavy in practicing any religion besides Bhuddism.

Interpret as you may like, I would love to hear what you guys can make from this.

Líder do PSDB defende redução da maioridade penal na CCJ

Lucioc

"Por defender a proposta de redução da maioridade penal, Líder do PSDB no Senado, Aloysio Nunes Ferreira, é chamado de facista."

Ao que parece o pessoal da platéia do congresso pensa que está numa rede social, onde a definição de "fascista" virou "qualquer pessoa que tem alguma opinião política diferente da sua".

De qualquer forma, no mundo real, os parlamentares inclusive de outros partidos defenderam o direito consitucional do Aloysio Ferreira expressar sua opinião, e o presidente da CCJ expulsou o carinha que não sabe o que "fascista" significa. Ha, ha!

Reoccurring dream where I cannot reach the police

Lucioc

Eu ia automaticamente fazer um xiste jocoso de que ela está tendo um horrível pesadelo recorrente de que vive no Brasil 8-), mas na verdade em vários dos sonhos a polícia existe/funciona, mas por um ou outro motivo ela não consegue chamar os ômi.

If someone could please help me interpret this, I would really appreciate it.

Okay, I have had several dreams (nightmares, really) over the past year or two, not a lot but definitely enough to notice a pattern, where I cannot reach the police. In one particular dream, I was kidnapped and being attacked by a guy, but I managed to kill him (or so I thought), and I called the police. The police car shows up, and the guy attacking me is actually still alive and ends up killing the cop. In another dream, my mother and I were being attacked by a different man, and we barricaded ourselves in the bathroom. I attempted to call for help, but my phone did not have signal when I tried to call the police. In my dream last night, I had been kidnapped with a friend and my dog, and we managed to escape but without my dog. I was afraid that he was being tortured or would be killed for us running away, but regardless, I was frantically trying to call the police to find the house. I called 911, and there was an automated message saying something, I forget what, but basically that there was no way for us to get in contact with them that day. My friend and I decided to walk around the streets, hoping we would find a cop car. I end up finding an emergency vehicle, but it is an ambulance, and they are super unhelpful.

Apparently, I also have reoccurring dreams of being attacked or kidnapped. I am a 5 foot tall, 21 year old girl, so I do have a fear of this in reality. Could this be interpreted as something, as well, or does this concern just translate into my dreams? Mainly, I am curious about the not finding help thing. Thank you! :)

Eu pensei que eu conseguiria desenvolver a Visão Além do Alcance, mas depois de ler uns comentários (inclusive do cara que inventou a app) vi que ela apenas trata a parte dos problemas de visão que é causada por má coordenação do cérebro/nervos na hora de focalizar o cristalino. (A visão melhora, mas obviamente defeitos físicos no cristalino ainda vão atrapalhar.)
