This is my first tattoo. The banner says “We are at war with the universe. The sky is falling and the only thing that can save us now is sensitivity and compassion.” It’s from a Lil’ Wayne song. 5 hours and $400 later, this is what my tattoo artist came up with. It was done by Watson at BlndSght in Portland, ME. I love my tattoo :)
Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded. And, the atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than your right hand. It really is the most poetic thing I know about physics: You are all stardust. You couldn’t be here if stars hadn’t exploded, because the elements - the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, iron, all the things that matter for evolution and for life - weren’t created at the beginning of time. They were created in the nuclear furnaces of stars, and the only way for them to get into your body is if those stars were kind enough to explode. So, forget Jesus. The stars died so that you could be here today.— Lawrence Krauss (via thechocolatebrigade)
