Scary stuff

I’ve read loads of scary things this week and had lots of scary conversations. None halloween-related, all of them scarier because of that fact. They’ve all generally pertained to research I can’t discuss on my blog because it’s too early, or there are grant stipulations, or publication contracts, or legal concerns, or just the simple fact that it’s not mine to talk about. Sometimes more than one of these reasons.

This is too bad because I had more than one conversation this week that involved someone finding human heads in jars in places that should never ever have dismembered people in them. Ever.

Those stories are all tragic and sad, so perhaps it’s for the best that they not be retold unless they’re given the time and attention necessary to convey the gravity of the situation.

Instead, how about a little weird science to end the week, courtesy of Scicurious?

“Friday Weird Science: Tornadoes and Trailer homes, aka, you can find a correlation with anything.”

Entertaining and educational, without a dismemberment or decapitation to be found. Happy Friday!
