DISABILITY PRIDE MONTH QUOTE 12

Wednesday, July 24, 2024

“My flesh is of the earth, like all bodies. But so is the body of my wheelchair, the titanium extracted from the crust of the earth, an element that happens to be found in Canada. The same crust of ancient rock I crawled across as a kid contains the element needed to build my wheelchair.” – Erin Clark

China Digging a Massive Hole Deep into the Earth’s Crust

A team of Chinese scientists has started work drilling a six-mile deep hole in the Earth’s crust, digging down to rocks dating back 145million years. The project aims to learn more about the planet’s internal structure and test underground drilling techniques while searching for new oil and gas deposits in the country’s Xinjiang region. At its deepest – 10,000m – the shaft will drill through ten layers of Earth, reaching the cretaceous system, laid down at a time when dinosaurs ruled and temperate rainforests grew close to the poles. Speaking to Xinhua News Agency, PetroChina’s Lyu Xiaogang said: ‘Drilling the borehole has two purposes – for scientific exploration and for finding oil and gas. Through drilling this borehole, we will strengthen [our] technology reserve for ultra-deep drilling, and build more ultra-deep drilling equipment.’ According to Xinhua News, the equipment used will weigh more than 2,000 tonnes altogether. Sun Jinsheng, a scientist at the Chinese Academy of Engineering, said: ‘The construction difficulty of the drilling project can be compared to a big truck driving on two thin steel cables.’A statement by state-owned oil refiner Sinopec said the goal is to complete the borehole in 100 days, drilling through an ‘underground Mount Everest’ – although the world’s tallest mountain is around 1,000m shorter than the depth of the hole. A translation read: ‘Sinopec aims to launch ultra-deep exploration projects and push the limits of depth through innovation-driven development of deep marine geological theory and exploration technologies.’ The project is part of a long-term goal set out by President Xi Jinping in 2021. Addressing the nation’s leading scientist, he called for greater exploration in deep space, the deep sea, deep Earth and deep blue – meaning computer science. However, if completed, the hole still won’t be the world’s deepest. That title is claimed by the Russian Kola Superdeep Borehole, at 12,262m. Completed in 1989, it took 20 years of drilling.

A good shift of perspective, locating center. Knocks out the cobwebs. Cool and comfortable in the shade of the rock with the spray from the ocean. #ancientrocks #crispbythesea #yogaonthebeach #inversion #headstand (at El Pescadero, Baja California Sur) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWRHzqfPq3w/?utm_medium=tumblr

The rocks that make these roofs. Insulating the house from heat, cold, wind and snow. It’s indigenous genius. . . . . . #ancientrocks #architecture #nature #sustainableliving #linedrawings #minisostationery #minisopens https://www.instagram.com/p/CRLqytPp9Yz/?utm_medium=tumblr

I saw this 2 thousand years old beauty of a ammonite and her gorgeous identical twin and I couldn't resist them. They're mine now!

Far to the north, the Mt Lofty ranges become the ancient rocks of the Flinders Ranges which extend into the Australian Outback and are much drier than those to the south. #flindersranges #southaustralia #arid #landscape #landscapephotography #mountains #ancient #ancientrocks

Quick Sona update

As you may (or may not) know, I’ve used my two main sonas, Ancientrock, and more recently, New Canvas, for a while. Especially Ancientrock. However, due to past, private events, I don’t feel comfortable using them as of now. Bad memories. And difficult designs.

But!! I’ve got a new one coming.

If y’all hear anything, don’t worry. ‘m okay. I got a therapist, actually! He’s pretty awesome.

I’ve also been amazing emotionally, due to very toxic “friendships” being cut.

So, I hope to all of you, you find a therapist you really like; you cut toxic “friendships” (I.E., they keep you down emotionally, don’t listen to what you say/misconstrue it, etc); and you get to a better place emotionally.

That’s all for now!
