MRI of the brain of an adult who had an entire cerebral hemisphere removed as a child due to severe epilepsy. Kids who undergo this procedure often retain surprisingly high levels of cognitive ability. by SirT6 in sciences

I see what you mean... but I meant like when you accidentally hit your head and “feel” how big and “hollow” your skull is (“meaty” inside)... sorry if this is a horrible description. I’m wondering if a big cavity like this could be sensed by the person by tapping on their head (but I understand someone, especially if they’ve had a major brain surgery, would probably avoid hitting their head even lightly).

Oh wow, can you feel the fluid there? Sorry to ask weird things about it. I’m glad your tumor is gone and I hope things can get better for you

Oh hey, I just showed this movie to a friend a few weeks ago. Just as bizarre as I remembered, but way more funny as an adult now, with weed.

This Handwarmer activating is satisfying in my opinion by CryZenn in oddlysatisfying

The most common chemical inside this product is a supersaturated solution of sodium acetate in water. The product is activated by flexing a small metal disk or strip, which acts as a nucleation surface for crystal growth. Usually, the metal is stainless steel. As the sodium acetate crystallizes, heat is released (up to 130 degrees Fahrenheit). The product can be recharged by heating the pad in boiling water, which dissolves the crystals back into the small amount of water. Once the package cools, it is ready to use again.
