Simple Pendulum Experiment Simple Pendulum Experiment : Introduction The simple pendulum experiment is a well-known physics experiment that helps understand the relationship between a pendulum’s length and time period. It also provides a method for figuring out the acceleration due to gravity(g).This experiment provides a fundamental understanding of oscillatory motion and aids in verifying…

ultimately when it comes to shipping and fandom space treatment of aspec characters i just don't accept "aro/ace people can still date/have sex" as an answer from nonaspecs. like yeah. mhm. okay. now i think we both know that you're not saying that out of real interest in the diversity of aspec experiences. so you can turn in your seventeen-page essay on why and how you plan to examine this character's aspec identity within the context of a romantic or sexual relationship complete with evidence from canon and peer reviews from multiple aspec people within the next week or i'm putting you in the pit from the edgar allen poe story

Unbelievable talking to someone with a car who can drive who is at once condesendly incredulous at the idea you would walk to the shops and also disagreeing that the civil infrastructure isnt hostile TO walking based on the fact they walked to a restaurant exactly once. As if the fact that they are in the possession of the ability to walk that distance but as a rule. Drives the LESS THAN FIVE MINUTES. To the location. Instead. Every other time. Is not itself. All the evidence needed.

and speaking of media literacy i need y'all to get a move on developing yours bc if i have to see someone talking about their very universal human experience and get the reply "uhm actually you have autism/adhd/childhood trauma 🫵" i'm gonna lose it

like please help me understand why you think neurotypical people don't have emotions or experiences because that's what it sounds like to me. do you think they're just empty husks walking around or

like do you see how dehumanizing that is

Yesterday I:

1. Found out some cosmic shit that will make me feel happy EVERY time i remember it, possibly for the rest of my life

2. Had food poisoning

1 made me so mentally satisfied while simultaneously feeling physically ill and puking from 2 that it gave me whiplash. I've never been so elated while sick.

Just as there has never been a day that did not give way to night or a storm that lasted forever, we move back and forth on this pendulum of life. We experience the good and the bad, the day and the night, the yin and the yang. We often teach just what we need to learn.

so it turns out i have more thoughts on fashion in TCP than anticipated (...surprise) and this is really only a small glimpse into norms in one city orz

Slowly reconfiguring my altar space but I'm gently adding Halloween decorations as September passes and October approaches, I'm personally obsessed with the little ghost lights. Anyway I don't have a dedicated sideblog for this stuff anymore so I'm just slapping it on main :)

As the pendulum is swinging back to “stop shaming people for leaving likes”, I am going to go on record to say I don’t like like because they’re a purely “number go up” metric that most people do not treat with the kind of thoughtful affection people who talk about leaving “little kisses for the people they follow” treat them as. I feel this exact same way about kudos in that mindless interaction from a potential audience is a real “good for you” kind of situation that simply does fuck all for me.

And before someone can call this grind culture brainrot, I also feel this way about reblogs without commentary. Good for you. I'm glad I was a good dancing monkey, enough for you to go “hey [people following me], lookadis guy”, even if you’re not gonna actually tell me that. We can talk about our choices for engaging with things and people on this site all we want, but intent isn’t magic, and I’m gonna reserve the right to complain about how that treatment feels regardless.

I struggle learning how to read the pendulum! Do you know any books are you happy to share how you've learned to do this?

I can't think of any books off the top of my head, but I am sure any psychic primer would have a method included. I can't recall if Matt Auryn's Psychic Witch has a pendulum exercise, but I would imagine it would. Even if not, the techniques of meditation and self hypnosis would be enough to get you going.

I learned from a witch to be honest. I bought my first pendulum at a local occult store after school. I miss the days when those types of stores were more common in the UK, they are rare now in smaller cities. This woman was a practicing witch and she showed me how she worked with her pendulum.

She would get centred first- which is hard at first, but if you meditate it gets easier to get into that state of mind at will. What I do is take some deep breaths and then count down into a meditative state from 11 to 0. 11 simply because it's a Thelemic number. Most people would do 10 to 0 probably, but it matters little, it is arbitrary. I also sometimes visualise myself in a lift going down floors, it has the effect of deepening consciousness. This seems very new-agey, but it works.

The idea is you clear your mind, you want to focus only on the question. You want to forget you are holding a pendulum, you want to be focused only on the question and think not about the answer. If you think about the answer you can influence the direction of the pendulum unconsciously.

It is also a good idea to invoke a being you work with prior to the working. Or a being associated with divination. I invoke the HGA or Hekate as I do in all my divination works.

Then you start with 'What is yes?' and note the direction the pendulum swings. Then ask 'what is no?' and note that too. I never ask for 'unlikely' or 'maybe'. The reason for this is, that I can tell when my pendulum is uncertain- my pendulums always go back and forth for yes and left to right for no. If it is unsure it tends to jiggle between the two and spin in a circle. You will come to learn as you practice.

You can also make charts- you can find many pendulum charts online for free which allows for you to get detailed answers. You can use it as an ouija board pointer, you can look at weather, you can use it over a map, you can use it anywhere to which it can point. The possibilities are quite large.

An interesting experiment I conducted was I made my partner, who does not practice any form of magic, hold my pendulum. I placed my hand on his heart and I directed energy into him and asked questions to the pendulum silently in this manner. I got responses, and they differed with each question. I also asked basic things like "Am I a male, is today Tuesday?" Things I could confirm to be true or false and it was correct each time. So then I asked about the future and again it came to pass.

My partner did not know what I was asking, nor did he understand why the pendulum was going in different ways. There was also no possibility of influence from my own mind or his in this setting. This made the results far more reliable in my opinion in a strange way.

I digress, but I really do think the pendulum is an underrated magical tool, and one I am guilty of underusing too these days. Every altar should have one!

Clear your mind, ask your question, focus your question, when you feel the pendulum move look at the response. Another tip- if the pendulum struggles to move at first spin it around clockwise once violently and ask again and it should alter direction from spinning- unless your pendulum responds with a clockwise motion for yes or no, then don't do it!

When I was a kid I had a book of like, "fun physics experiments for kids". And one of them was an "experiment" where you hold an object by a string and just by focusing on the direction you wanted it to swing, it would start to move in that direction even without your input. The book of course explained that this was the ideomotor effect, a phenomenon where your thoughts can create minute, unconscious movements in your body.

Then a couple years later I got a fortune-telling kit that included a pendulum. You hold the pendulum over a piece of paper that says "yes" and "no" and ask a question, and whichever way the pendulum moves is the answer.

At which point I was like "hey WAIT a minute", and in hindsight I think that experience explains most things about who I am as a person

What Fugo mischaracterization are you guys seeing because I am on the other end of it

Experiment: To Study the Variation of Time Period of a Simple Pendulum with Different Masses (Keeping Length Constant)

Simple pendulum experiment : Aim To investigate whether the time period of a simple pendulum depends on the mass of the bob while keeping the length constant. Simple pendulum experiment : Materials required Light, inextensible string (fixed length, e.g., 50 cm or 100 cm)   Three or four bobs of the same size but different masses (e.g., 40g, 60g,80g,and 100g)   A rigid stand with clamp  A…
