Constellation Andromeda

The constellation Andromeda is found in far northern skies, adjoining Perseus and Cassiopeia. It is often called the chained lady, for it was pictured on ancient star maps as a beautiful and tragic figure of a woman, who was bound by chains to rocks on the seashore. How did the fair Andromeda find herself in this predicament? Andromeda was the daughter of King Cepheus and Queen Cassiopeia . The queen had offended some beautiful sea nymphs, called the Nereids, by claiming to be more beautiful than they. As retribution for this affront to his charges, the sea god, Poseidon sent a monster, Cetus to wreak havoc along the shores of King Cepheus’s kingdom.

In desperation, Cepheus consulted an oracle to find out if there was some way that he could put an end to the destruction the monster was causing. He was told that he had to give the monster a living sacrifice-his daughter-which is how Andromeda came to be chained to the rocks. As the terrified Andromeda waited to be devoured, the hero Perseus happened along and asked who she was and why she was in this pitiful state. At first, improbably shy, Andromeda said nothing, but gradually she told Perseus everything, ending with an ear-splitting scream as she saw Cetus approaching. Perseus, fresh from killing the Gorgon Medusa, still had her head in his hand. He turned the Gorgon’s face to Cetus, which promptly turned to stone and sank. As his reward, Perseus claimed Andromeda’s hand in marriage and she later bore him six children.

The great spiral 

Andromeda is easy to locate as it is joined to Pegasus, one of the most unmistakable of all constellations owing to its square of four stars. Visually, the individual stars in Andromeda are not particularly noteworthy. The most interesting object by far is a blurry patch, found roughly midway between the  Square of Pegasus and the W-shape of Cassiopeia. This patch resembles a nebula or gas cloud, but in fact it is a distant star island, or galaxy. It is often called the Great Spiral because of its structure, which shows up when viewed through a powerful telescope.

blessed be the weird, the outcasts, the unruly; the mad, the strangers, the wanderers without harbour. saints of loneliness and patrons of struggle, those devoured by guilt and those ravaged by longing; all hail the tired, the lost, the forgotten.

since polygraphs aren’t admissible in court because they’re nonsense junk science, a primary purpose they serve in interrogations is essentially using them as a prop to ramp up the pressure on a suspect. it’s all a big performance and no one should ever submit to one if they have the option not to

“Wrestling requires a suspension of disbelief like any other scripted show. It is planned and choreographed. It is a dance between two people skilled enough to appear like they are killing each other, while taking every precaution to keep the other safe.”

Erica: Childhood is idolizing Batman.

Stiles: Being a teenager means thinking that the Joker makes sense.

Derek: Being an adult means feeling sorry for all the insane bullshit that Commissioner Gordon has to go through.

Sheriff Stilinski: And being old means agreeing with Alfred that all these costumed freaks should go and get therapy rather than holding up the liquor store for the fifteenth time this week.
