So there are several species of frogs that have evolved to be so small that their vestibular balance system doesn't work well and I'm sorry but it's the funniest thing to watch them try to jump.

memorial day moment of silence..?

[an3sthetics]

My boyfriend was showing me his cat and I leaned over to kiss the cat on his soft little baby head and he went "meow" and scrambled away because I'd been wearing my headphones and I accidentally jabbed him with the microphone.

And I said "Damn, this is exactly like in the Iliad"

no but for real, imagine being in a city without cars. not the logistics, not the public transportation, not the design of the city itself, don't imagine living in a city without cars, or building a city without cars, just imagine sitting in one. Sitting on your porch, or your balcony, or even just by you open window.

How much of the soundscape around you comes from cars, and how different would it be without them? imagine streets, neighborhoods, where the only sounds were the sounds of life. of occasional bicycles whizzing past, of peoples music across the street, of people having conversations, or cooking in food stalls, or playing in all the open space. all the space for people. imagine the only interruptions are the occasional rumble of a bus, or a trolley, or more rarely an emergency vehicle. what if all the other vehicles were gone.

Imagine what the street outside would look like. be it a busy and bustling one in a dense urban area, or a quiet residential one on the outskirts of the city. What would it look like if people could use the street as the public space it is. If people were playing games out there, or gathering for events, or even just conversations. If people weren't limited to a few feet along either edge. What would it look like if life could take place on the street outside.

What would it smell like without the rubber, without the petroleum, without the burning oil and grease and all those scents of personal transportation. Imagine what it would smell like if they were gone, if the only smells were those of the lives taking place around you, of the homes and the restaurants and the businesses and the stalls that could occupy the space in their stead. If nothing else, imagine the smell of the city without the smog of the road.

Imagine just existing. even for just a few minutes. even just outside your home, in a city without cars. how different would it be?
