I was today year old when I found out about one of the most awesomest Easter eggs in a movie (Spielberg wrote the story GOONIES is adapted from). Mind. Blown! 🤯 (I don’t know who did the collage - just discovered it on IG today)

Potassium alum crystal mixed with ink from yellow fluorescent marker and contaminated with something... My kid was preparing this for fun, but he didn't clean the container before pouring in this solution. The contaminant pushed the crystal into an almost perfect cube. 🧪🍎 #chemsky

Midway across the river the duckling stings the pizza, dooming them both. When asked why, the duckling points out that this is its nature.

Threatening to destroy art isnt art. Its fake art. F-art? Blarney art. Bl-art?
theguardian.com
Threatening to dissolve masterpieces in acid is a pathetically banal stunt for our shallow times
