….what

Hot ice, everyone. Or supersaturation. I’ve done this in a lab and it is fun as hell. I’m going to explain the process of what the thing I did was, and assume it applies to what is going on in this gif. If I am wrong someone let me know.

I’m going to guess this is sodium acetate, as that’s what I worked with. You can make it with baking soda and vinegar. You very slowly add bits of baking soda to the vinegar and stir between additions - slow enough that you don’t get the volcano effect that kids love to make. Once the baking soda has been added, you boil it to further concentrate it, and stop boiling once a film has started to form over the surface. Covering the liquid to prevent evaporation and cooling it results in a supercooled liquid - a liquid that is actually at a temperature below its melting point. Something as simple as touching it - either with a fingertip or with another crystal, which could be what the ‘ice cube’ in the gif is - should activate the exothermic reaction that results in instant crystallization. And the crystals will be warm to the touch. Hence the name ‘hot ice’.

Don’t get any closer to each other

This is the most interesting thing I’ve seen all year.

I don’t know how to feel about this

ahhhh

What is this suppose too meann?

it represents the fragility of friendship. Once you get too close you can break something that can be beautiful. If you recede too far the beauty will fly away. The eyes on the butterflies wings symbolise the truth about the pain they have seen.

DUDE, that was so deep

““If we can’t write diversity into sci-fi, then what’s the point? You don’t create new worlds to give them all the same limits of the old ones.””

- Jane Espenson (from interview with Advocate.com)\

I dunno how many which ways this needs to be said

{ DOWNLOAD }

_{Collection of vintage-style textures for Game of Thrones graphic makers. Some of them were clipped straight from out-of-copyright material, some of them were edited by me, some of them were made entirely by me.}

_{A lot of lions and wolves, in particular. See an example of their use here. I’ve never made a texture pack before, so I don’t know if this is useful. Gold Star I tried. If you could like or reblog this, that would help me know if people liked it. Thanks!}
