ā€œIt wasn’t an official marriage. We didn’t register. But we had a plan. I was earning good money even though I was young. I was already a specialist at the age of nineteen. She was very beautiful. We’d been together for four years. She was a good person and very easy to talk to. She’d met my family and everyone loved her. At the time I was helping to construct a new subway line in Moscow. I came home from work one day and she was gone. There were no cell phones back then. Nobody knew where she was. She’d last been seen getting into a private taxi with her friend Natalya. A lot of people were disappearing during that time. The police stopped searching after a few months. She wasn’t seen again. There’s a line from a Russian poem. It says: ā€˜We love just once in a lifetime. And spend the rest of our lives looking for something similar.’ I’ve had other girlfriends after Oksana. But I don’t remember their birthday. Oksana’s birthday was July 9th. She was a Leo.ā€

this is a pretty good summary of what Amsterdam is like

THERE IS SO MUCH GOING ON IN THIS VIDEO WHAT WAS UP WITH THE GUY RUNNING AT THE VERY BEGINNING AND THE ONE CAR HIP-CHECKING THE OTHER INTO A WATERY OBLIVION AND THE SPEEDBOAT AND AAAAAAAAAAAH

And then they destroy the stoop on that building, and just drive off???

did any of y’all see the motorcycle on the sidewalk in the other building

oh my god and the two pedestrians huddling on the very edge of the canal to avoid getting hit by the motorcycle

Saw folks in the notes saying this was from the filming of The Hitman’s Bodyguard, and sure enough…

Well how about that.

THE TRUTH HAS BEEN REVEALED

I was thinking this looked like a movie scene.

heterosexuality is the real horrorĀ 

This man looks like an eel

While this is great and funny please don’t flame the actual actor. Unless he’s the one writing these articles about how hot he is, he doesn’t deserve to be ridiculed. Ridicule the media, ridicule heteronormativity, and bullshit beauty standards but not an actual actor who’s just trying to make a movie, thanks. I’m not being all “protect him at all cost uwu” I don’t even know who this guy is, I’m just saying you don’t have to call people ugly to prove your point.

25% of the people have a 4th cone and see colors as they are

Given the sudden interest for the color of dresses and vision, here some of the fascinating findings we did recently.

The color nuances we see depend on the number and distribution of cones (=color receptors) in our eye. You can check this rainbow: how many color nuances do you count?

You see less than 20 color nuances: you are a dichromats, like dogs, which means you have 2 types of cones only. You are likely to wear black, beige, and blue. 25% of the population is dichromat.

You see between 20 and 32 color nuances: you are a trichromat, you have 3 types of cones (in the purple/blue, green and red area). You enjoy
different colors as you can appreciate them. 50% of the population is
trichromat.

You see between 33 and 39 colors: you are a
tetrachromat, like bees, and have 4 types of cones (in the purple/blue,
green, red plus yellow area). You are irritated by yellow, so this color
will be nowhere to be found in your wardrobe. 25% of the population is
tetrachromat.

You see more than 39 color nuances: come on, you are
making up things! there are only 39 different colors in the test and
probably only 35 are properly translated by your computer screen anyway
šŸ™‚

It is highly probable that people who have an additional 4th
cone do not get tricked by blue/black or white/gold dresses, no matter
the background light šŸ˜‰

I see 21 colors. I had no idea there are so many more.

I see 35-39 colours, and I hate the colour yellow. That was actually what made me curious enough to stop scrolling and count. Who knew there was a scientific reason behind my colour preferences?

So the idea here is that what I see as annoyingly, garishly bright, most people don’t see as clearly, and that’s why it’s ā€œcheerful?ā€ (I’ve never understood that description of yellow.)

I barely saw 18 or 19. Dang :/

Aiight genuinely I see 40 tho. :/ and yellow is nasty

ETA: Ok I recounted and found 39
