Rhinopias is a small genus containing half a dozen crazy-looking species of scorpionfish. They have a kind of horsey, aristocratic face and a body that’s not at all built for swimming. That’s fine, since they much prefer to sit around all day and night lunging at little fish that come their way. They reach almost a foot long but are seldom seen. Despite the ridiculously bright colouration a lot of them have, they typically blend into the sponges, coral and algae of their Indo-Pacific habitat.

Oooooh shit😮😮😮

OH MY GOSH. 😳😳

Tell the truth ma'am, tell it.

a short comic about witches and wishes and wanting things.

Here’s a thing that is helpful and free! It’s a plugin that uses a dyslexic-friendly font and color coding to make reading easier for everyone, but especially for those of us with dyslexia, ADHD, or other learning disabilities.

Above text reads: “Make reading easier and faster with BeeLine Reader! BeeLine uses a color gradient to guide your eyes from the end of one line to the beginning of the next. This seemingly simple tweak makes reading substantially easier and faster because it allows you to transition between lines quickly and effortlessly. Thousands of people have taken our online diagnostic test, and over 90% of them saw a benefit from BeeLine. Many people are able to read 20% or 30% faster with BeeLine, even on their first try. 

Our Chrome extension works great on news articles, wikipedia pages, and other text-heavy websites. You can choose between several different color schemes, and more features will be coming soon.”

I love this plugin so freaking much you guys.

It also has the option to change the font to OpenDyslexic which is pretty damn cool

This Humidity-Powered Seed Plants Itself by Drilling into the Ground

Speaking of Wonder Woman and professional comic industry artists who actually are her genuine fans, it’s a perfect opportunity to give a shout-out to how Stjepan Sejic depicts her.

Above here, we have not one, not two, but FOUR alternative designs of body-covering armor for Diana; each of them very distinct, while still paying tribute to her traditional costume’s elements.  Big thanks to filipfatalattractionrblog​ of hellyeahteensuperheroes​ for referencing those in a reblog from us.

THIS is what I meant on my personal by saying that the new official costume doesn’t really challenge anything and its only change compared to the previous design is the spoulders and a jumpsuit unbeneath.  There are infinite ways to redesign fictional fashion, and when a new design just a superficial fix, it is okay to criticize… as long as you know what you’re talking about, *ahem*JScottCampbell*ahem* >_>

Also worth noting how Mr Sejic usually portrays Wonder Woman’s body. Even in a classic strapless costume, her figure reads as one of an Amazon warrior: tall, bulky and muscular.

As we mentioned before, nebezial is also notable for having a good sense of humor and self-awareness of how the industry treats female characters. It’s no different in case of Diana:

F#$%ing Photoshop indeed.

New Printing Tech Allows the Blind to Touch Priceless Paintings

Visitors aren’t touching the original paintings themselves, exactly. They’re touching an extremely high-resolution replica of each painting. The exhibit at Madrid’s Prado Museum, called Hoy toca el Prado, or Touch The Prado, is the product of a new printing process invented in Spain called Didú. Developed by a printing studio called Estudios Durero, Didú produces physical objects a bit like a 3D printer would—except using a completely different chemical process.

The process begins with a high-resolution photo of the painting. The employees at Durero select textures and features that make sense to enhance for the blind. In this aspect, small details, which may appear insignificant at first sight, can be fundamental in understanding the composition or the theme developed in each image. After around forty hours of work on each image, the volumes and textures are defined and printed with special ink. Then a chemical method is applied that gives volume to the initially flat elements. On these, the real image with the original colours is printed, at a suitable size so that it can be touched and reached with the hands.
