No screaming fish in this video unfortunately, but it’s a cool extension of these ideas, using wave tanks to analog-simulate black hole superradiance.

Anyway that correction is interesting and even perhaps relevant to her whole weird arc.

The knights who say ni, from the film “Monty python and the holy grail”. On the left, some regular looking regular knights in like chain mail and whatever. On the right, some weird guys in dark robes and horned helmets. The guy in the middle is twice as tall as everyone else and his helmet is made out of sticks and antlers and junk.

"I use AI to make professional graphics for my presentations."

Ok that's fine, you do you. But if you think clearly all you really need is MS Paint, apparently.

Figure from Bill Unruh's paper, "Has Hawking Radiation Been Measured?".
Unruh, W.G. Has Hawking Radiation Been Measured?. Found Phys 44, 532–545 (2014). https://doi.org/10.1007/s10701-014-9778-0

Figure is obviously drawn in MS Paint or equivalent. Shows a cut view of a waterfall going over a cliff. One yellow fish has gone over the edge and one has not. Green circles represent the acoustic wavefront of their yelling. The one going over the falls has its yell wavefronts shifted. The whole thing is adorable.

Caption reads "Found Phys (2014) 44:532–545 535
Fig. 1 The sound waves emitted
by a yelling fish as it goes over a
waterfall which goes supersonic
at the red line. Just as for a black
hole, beyond the sonic horizon,
the sound waves are swept over
the falls with the fish. (Note that
the appendages on the heads of
the fish are ears, not fins, since
these fish experience the world
through sound, not sight"

Who wants to see the best figure of all time in a physics paper?
In which Bill Unruh explains black hole dynamics using the analogy of screaming fish going over a supersonic waterfall. 🧪

My child has brought home some Pokémon literature that includes a Jessie/James ship. This is certainly the most perverted thing I’ve ever seen in a kids’ magazine.

Hey don’t worry it’s just me fooling around. I’m not really the sovereign of ravening subterranean hordes. This is a picture of a guy in a yellow hard hat with a silly expression on his face, standing in an underground cavern full of scientific apparatus. Gas bottles and electrical systems visible in the background. NOAA map illustrating “convective outlook” for March 10, 2026. A map of the continuous USA shows a big red spot right on top of the Chicago suburbs

At long last, Mother Nature readies her punishment for the arrogant surface dwellers. My moloid legions sharpen their swords and their teeth, awaiting my orders!

Boy I sure hope that people react to this heartbreaking violence and stupidity with appropriately nuanced sobriety.

No, not this time? I get it. Maybe we can try the nuanced sobriety thing next time though.
