Happy Birthday to the lovely (both of them!) [livejournal.com profile] cala_jane and [livejournal.com profile] nzlaura!

Hope that both of you are having the best of sparkly days today! ::hugs you::

LJ have just made that thumbtack function easier; you click on the icon and can set your prefs there and then without going to a new page; I approve. Good job, LJ!

A few days ago [livejournal.com profile] oceana_ pointed to this weird thing where you watch a silhouetted dancer twirl and try to work out if she's going clockwise or anti; unsurprisingly, I saw it the 'wrong' way because I'm weird. And then it flipped and I saw it the other way and I started to get suspicious that the loop wasn't a single rotation but it's not a trick. I watched it with David, with both of us calling out which way she was turning and getting it different every time; it switched for me; stayed the same for him.

So not a trick; just perception and the way your brain interprets stuff. Deeply worrying in some ways; you really can't trust your eyes, can you?

The link's here if anyone hasn't seen it yet:

Dancer

I'm a clockwise/right brainer; David's a leftie. no surprise there at all.
