Random Interesting Charts/Pictures of various things

Recommended Posts

This is super cool...basically a hodgepodge of interesting information kinda put together in one article.

 

See what the "average" person in a county looks like, "pain charts" on the body for tattoos, how much air various bags of chips have in them, etc...

See the impact an asteroid would have on any place you pick

 

Asteroid Launcher (neal.fun)

 

 

What a weird thing to find.

 

I live in 'burbs of West Palm Beach so I went with that location.

 

I set it for: 50,000 MPH, .5 mile asteroid, 45 degree impact...

 

@ 50,000 people vaporized, 3 million dead in fireball, 715,000 dead from shockwave, 1.8 million dead from WIND BLAST.

 

Would trigger 6.9 earthquake, create a tsunami .85 miles high, and knock down all trees for 172 miles.

 

LOL.

 

Luckily this happens once every 780,000 years on average.

 

Makes the thought of Putin setting off a low yield nuke seem kind of tame! 

 

🤣

Real nice man, I click on the link knowing there has to be a naked woman chart and all I get is some Van Gogh Playboy mash up.  You stink.

Posting this for the beauty of his smile 💙💙💙 AND His message

 

He crafted, produced and delivered a powerful poignant audio on instagram along with this pic. I immediately stole it for my avatar for the Championship games.

 

Damar Hamlin is a focused no nonsense Very smart and talented driven individual. I can see him doing whatever he feels led to most. Be his brand ambassador or NFL player. You know I'll be watching. He is Serious and has been since he was in college crafting his brand Chasing M's Foundation  now officially has  a HUGE amount of resources to be spent...?

 

His head is on straight. This is going to be fun to watch 🙂

@ExiledInIllinois he'll love this 🙂

 

 I enjoyed the visual map at the top.  beautiful

I actually found the "Tile Vector Map of Unfair Insularity" rather fascinating!

Which led me to this page:

 

"Musings on Maps"

National Waters, Legal Fictions, and Rivers of Fertilizer

If drawn maps rely on distinguishing lines of property, territoriality, or even shorelines, the overlaps of more interactive web maps provide new strategies to trace the complexity of relations between land and water.  The projection of the network of rivers within the United States Jason Davies mapped above, in the header to this post, creates an entrancing web of the body of rivers less as a network, but a nourishing group of waterways.  The map’s beauty provokes us to rethink relations between land and water.  In rendering rivers, rather than territory, it suggests how a dynamic mapping of layers and overlays from directly and remotely sensed data might lead to a range of new cartographical strategies to chart the increasingly complex relationships between land and water in ways that would be less concerned to abstract the waterways or supplies of water from their surrounding environment, but to integrate water into the landscape and ecosystem which it nourishes–or the ways that the entry of pollutants into that hydrographic network might compromise local ecosystems across the country.

Yeah! 

😊 

 

I am assuming unfair as being insular, or isolated.

 

"INSULAR

1 : characteristic of an isolated people especially : being, having, or reflecting a narrow provincial viewpoint."

 

I count 3 states that that are insular solely within their drawn borders: Vermont, Rhode Island, & Delaware.

Seeing as this thread is about "pictures of various things," meaning effectively, "anything," I thought I'd post this as I find it interesting.

 

This shows German soldiers some time after June 1941, somewhere in Russia most likely.

 

The sign reads: "Here begins the (swear word for buttocks) of the world."

Shouldn't that be at the Massachusetts state line?

That picture of the Arizona is from the later 50s. My dad was stationed on the crash crew  at the naval airfield on Ford Island in 1950-1951 (never had  plane crash  or have problems landing while he was there). He told me the superstructure of the Arizona was still attached  and sticking out of the water while he was there. He also told me they kept the bullet holes in the walls of the barracks  to remind them. 

My parents  visited  Oahu in 1986 and the barracks were replaced with retired admiral housing then.
