Scientists discover new particles: pentaquarks
Scientists at the Large Hadron Collider near Geneva have discovered a previously unseen class of particles that demonstrate there is a new state of matter.
Researchers working on the collider’s LHCb detector spotted signals that are produced when five subatomic particles called quarks combine together to form pentaquarks.
Scientists’ understanding of the structure of matter was transformed in 1964 when the American physicist Murray Gell-Mann proposed that protons and neutrons were made up of three new types of particles called quarks. The work earned him the Nobel prize in 1969.
LHCb spokesperson Guy Wilkinson said the discovery confirms a prediction made by Gell-Mann more than half a century ago. “It’s been a big big puzzle,” he said. “Having found one, it’s highly likely there are others out there,” said Wilkinson.

The evil twin brother of deja vu. In deja vu, an unfamiliar situation seems oddly familiar, as if it has happened before. In jamais vu, a familiar situation feels eerily unfamiliar, as if one has never experienced a similar situation before, although one rationally knows one has experienced this kind of situation before.
Wikipedia suggests that one can induce this feeling by repeating a word quickly, many times over. This is properly termed “semantic satiation.” A word temporarily loses meaning if you repeat it enough. Door, door, door, door, door, door, door, door, door, door, door, door, is the word door starting to feel like it’s not a real word yet?
That’s one thing. You’ve just bombarded your brain with the same stimulus until it becomes fatigued, kind of like you stop noticing a persistent smell after a while. But imagine you walk into your apartment, grab a beer, turn on the tv, sit down on your couch, put your feet up on the table, take a sip, and suddenly… This situation feels uncannily different, like you walked into some stranger’s apartment, some stranger’s life, and everything just isn’t like it’s supposed to be. The feeling passes, and rationally you know it wasn’t real, but… You just experienced jamais vu.

‘THE’ is the most frequently used word in the English language… but what does it actually mean??
Surely they teach this in school, but I have no recollection of ever learning it.

Ya ampun mega charizard + mega aggron.. *pingsan*
yooo, I really apologize for my long absence! There were some real life things that kept me occupied for a longer time than expected and I also kinda lost confidence in my artistic abilities. So I decided it would be better if I’d work on my personal projects, but of course I couldn’t resist drawing some more fusions. You might notice some minor style changes. I used thinner lines and added some more detailed textures, I hope you guys don’t mind!
