Don't fight me on this topic

While I will NOT fight you, and do NOT claim to be an expert....Everything I learned/read/attended lectures to was BEFORE the discovery/isolation of the Higgs equation/ particle...

So it all means nothing now!!! (Well. Not exactly, but you understand)

Meh, the discovery of the Higgs was definitely a great achievement, but "completing" the standard model of particle physics doesn't really change anything about either of the theories of relativity. And as much as I love light (I'm an electrician so you know I love me some good electromagnetism) it would be difficult to name another particle that gives less of a **** about the Higgs Field xD I'd wager that all your knowledge from the past still applies perfectly fine to the modern understanding of Physics

I like “Theoretical Physics” more..

For those who know “just enough”

It’s interesting to observe advances in certain fields, then watch for the “education” to catch up.

For instance, My ACTUAL field is psychology... I have about 4years of specific schooling for that. (EMPHASIS on Research Psych/Abnormal Psych/Psycholinguistics) So I collect textbooks of the like..

I have a ‘Mental Subnormality” text from the 1930’s that classifies Homosexuality as a disorder! Bonkers how much we try to teach about things we know so little about.... but you’d NEVER know (hindsight). Fascinating stuff.. this evolution/adaptation.

This was hilarious (made me Myself), and needed special credit!

Man, you guys are weird
Most of these poems make no sense
Maybe I'm just dense

I view a Haiku much as I do a Koan. For a brief moment time itself stands still. It is one of those rare instances when feeling leads to understanding, IMO.

A traditional Japanese haiku is a three-line poem with seventeen syllables, written in a 5/7/5 syllable count. Often focusing on images from nature, haiku emphasizes simplicity, intensity, and directness of expression.
As the form has evolved, many of its regular traits—including its famous syllabic pattern—have been routinely broken. However, the philosophy of haiku has been preserved: the focus on a brief moment in time; a use of provocative, colorful images; an ability to be read in one breath; and a sense of sudden enlightenment.

Like which ones Lots of silly stuff, lots of abstract stuff

I'm into the theoretical stuff much more too, if you can't tell by the pic 1 session down, 2 more to go
It's impossible to get a photo without part of it looking askew xD

Gazing while passing

Once standing timber now heaved

I envy the wind

 

[HorseloverFat]

Flatland knows not up

Great storm but a mere hiccup

How small we observe

 

[Vali]

Everywhere you are,

Happy and fearlessly,

Always you should be

Interesting. I’ve never given poetry much thought because of all the waffle, but that does make haiku more appealing. I like the idea of having to be as efficient as possible in order to get something across. Ponder on this, I will.

Studly Rob,
that vigorous back-budly heartthrob,
Mr. Cuddly On-the-job,
cat.

 

[parvae_arbores]

This sound like something from a horror movie, or video game.

This is my bonsai experience right now. Cannot seem to get rid of them.

I've been trying to come up with a Haiku for Studly Rob...but after a few days I've come to realized that no amount of words in this earth can adequately describe my infatuation for him....and his feline.
