Meet Mr. Toilet | Jessica Yu by Focus Forward Films
For those without access to a simple toilet, poop can be poison. Businessman-turned-sanitation-superhero Jack Sim fights this oft-neglected crisis affecting 2.6 billion people.Inevitably, 2010 Social Innovation Fellow Ryan Smith opened his presentation with a poop joke.
“It was irresistible,” he said of the “Poop!Tech” logo on the screen behind him. Natch. Smith, after all, is co-founder and chief technical officer of Micromidas, Inc., a biotech company that uses an innovative microbial process to convert raw sewage into high quality disposable plastics.
The plastics made by Micromidas’ sewage-eating bacteria are completely bio-degradable and the implications of the technology are obvious. A non-petroleum plastic made from organic waste that completely degrades in six months to a year? What’s not to love?
Instructions:
1. Stare at the red dot on the girl’s nose for 30 seconds.
2. Turn your eyes to a plain surface (your ceiling or blank wall).
3. Blink repeatedly and quickly.
4. WTF! one+infinity

this is the difference between the Mercator (left) and Equal Area (right) projections. do you see the GIGANTIC difference in how Africa and South America are portrayed?? The Equal Area projection is a much more accurate depiction of size ratios (in terms of Africa to Europe, for example), and yet it’s banned in public schools in the US, and the Mercator map is the official map of the US government.
seriously anyone who denies the fact that the US government is openly and purposely racist is an ignorant racist fuck
