Shower Thoughts

@Yastreb this'll blow you're mind then - Heat Pumps generate MORE heat than the energy you put into them.
 
No, I'm an idiot, I think I know something but I don't know anything.

I'm sorry. You were right.
Nobody's being an idiot. Physics is complicated.

Actually, it's only certain electric heaters that get close to 100% efficiency, and even those lose a tiny amount of energy to the electromagnetic effect of the wiring.

I do apologise for yesterday. It's been a tiring summer and I've had a meltdown at the wrong moment. I need to do better.
 
"Ah this shower is so nice and wa......ugh oh my god ahh..cold cold cold...where did all the hot water go?"

Was basically what was going on through my head today... water heater decided I wasn't allowed hot water after five minutes in the shower. Turned it to full heat and it warmed up a tad but then it went to about as cold as if I was being hit by ice.

If you're ever going to a protest for anything dangerous/political...a FURSUIT is the perfect gear to wear, and here's why:

-You can easily conceal a basic filtration system into the head snout to repel chemical irritants like tear gas and the like.
-The foam-lined bodies and headbase structure will resist baton attacks from the police if well built. (carbide instead of plastic for example)
-Your identity is automatically concealed to prevent further reprisals from camera-wielding authorities.
-You would be immune to taser attacks as well as possible resistance to beanbag and rubber bullets.
-Your fun sona would inspire peace and joy, confusing the tone of the oppressing force you're protesting. Worked for hippies occasionally!
-If necessary one could ditch the suit in minutes and disappear into the crowd invisibly to escape to safety.

You have me suddenly wondering two things:
  • For those REALLY oppressive governments, I have to wonder if anyone's snuck kevlar into a fursuit's construction.
  • What's the plan of defense against a water cannon? Would that require ditching the suit?
 
If blood has iron in it, and has to be frequently oxidised, why don't we rust from the inside out?
 
  • Wow
Reactions: Ravofox
Blood's red due to oxidation, iron released atoms at a time so not enough to rust before our bodies break it down anyway. (rust is just ionization anyway)

So the answer is technically, it does rust?😜

Yes I guess it techincally IS rusting inside us, and since rust is just the breaking down of the iron, and your body is breaking down the small quantities constantly...you're rusting all right. Just the quantities are too small to notice...mere atoms at a time. Ain't science grand? <giggle>
