i took a pic of me watching the pickle rick episode to piss people off but like somehow i managed to take the pic so that the frame on the tv was…. a different frame to the reflection on the desk?
cursed image
this is the most fucked up scenario that accurately depicts that movement of photons through space and time
Einstein would be so upset that you proved his theory in one moment, cause in his day it took fuckin months to setup an eclipse pic to prove relativity n you did it by accident, in ur living room. congrats.
this is actually called the rolling shutter effect!! the camera captures images in a rolling fashion, from the top to the bottom. so objects that are moving fast like a car, or a airplane propeller, or frames on a tv being reflected will always look distorted. the closer to the top of the image you get, the further back in time it represents, just by a few split seconds. all this means is that the frame reflected on the table was probably the one right after the one on the tv, and it changed before the camera’s rolling shutter had time to get to it.
here’s some more pictures with the rolling shutter; remember that the top of the image just represents a fraction of a second earlier in the action
rolling shutters also move side to side in some cameras, leading to more spooky imagery
throwback thursday: those plant scientists in the early 90s who were tryin to make a purple flower more purple for retail greenhouses by throwing more “make more purple” genes into the genomes but when the plants would bloom they would bloom pure white with no pigment, turns out that they accidentally discovered the plant RNAi virus defense (that wouldn’t be properly described in any organism until like 2006, when some other scientists would win the nobel prize for it) that was thinking the “make more purple” pigment genes they were inserting was a virus and was reacting to it by just rapidly destroying all the pigment genes in the plants’ genome, turning them white instead of purple lmao
HE GRABS THE CUP BUT THEN HE DROPS THE PEN 0.0003 SECONDS LATER
AND HE LOOKS UP AT THE CEILING INSTEAD OF AT THE GROUND WHEN HE CAN’T FIND THEM
I CAN’T STOP LAUGHING HE JUST DROPS IT
IT’S NOT FUNNY IT’S VERY LOGICAL THAT HE WOULD HAVE ADJUSTED TO LIVING LIFE WHILE HE WAS IN SPACE BECAUSE IT’S DIFFERENT FROM EARTH BUT I CAN’T FUCKING BREATHE
*THUNK*
YES IT’S BACK ON MY DASH THIS IS MY FAVORITE VIDEO
I could watch this video for hours and it would still be funny
