Sh*t Is An Old, Old Word
It can be traced back to Middle English, around the year 1000 CE, along with turd and arse. Making it one of the true Anglo-Saxon words left in English.
The word probably originated much earlier than it can be traced. Because, well, swear words tend not to get written down. They are spoken, slang words. Another piece of evidence that sh*t is older than 1000 CE is that similar words exist in other languages in the Germanic family including Dutch, Icelandic, and of course German. Which suggests that sh*t was born not in Middle English, but descended from a common ancestor in the original proto-Germanic language.
Sh*t was not always a taboo word. It initially meant, very specifically, diarrhea in cattle.

Three things I find hilarious about this:
1: Jeff Goode goes to Furry Cons
2: Disney acknowledges and prepares show creators that their show will, most definitely, become porn.
3: Disney has examples on hand of how said show will, most definitely, become porn.
Pffft!!!!!
Disney doesn’t just have examples of said porn!!
Ok story time. Yeaaaars ago i dated an animator chick. During that short time together we ran around a lot and met a bunch of industry people in our area.
One of them used to work for Disney. So we are hanging out at his apartment and conversation being what it is he kinda says “hold on” and goes off to dig in the closet. He comes back and sets down a couple STACKS (and im talking foot high) of printer paper.
What followed were a couple hours of hysterical laughing as we paged through “a history of Disney animation- porn edition”
See Disney has this weird rule in their artist contracts- everything you create while in their employ is THEIRS. Even in the off time. Its one of the reasons they are reviled in the industry. But the rule was set in place to basically steal good ideas from their staff or force them to ONLY work on Disney ip’s while employed.
The jokes on them though. They didn’t count on most artists being giant perverts (this story is also why i laugh when people tell me drawing smut will ‘ruin your art career’)
So! Disney being bastards ended up earning them smut of everything they’ve ever created. And also per their policies they had to keep it. Every artist knew about the smut vault and our buddy here had photocopied a chunk of it. Yes… 2-3 feet of smut was just a chunk of it.
Snow white? Rescue rangers? Goofy? Minnie? Micky? Beauty and the beast? Aladdin? Yup you name it it was there. Some of it was mild. The topless little mermaid stuff made sense at least. Some was raunchy as hell. ALL OF IT in the animation style of the films and shows.
So yes, not only does Disney know there will be porn, have the porn, but they official porn.
You’re welcome.

Turbulence – that pestersome, unpredictable, and chaotic state of flow – has been a thorn in the sides of mathematicians, physicists, and engineers for centuries. It is certainly one of – if not the – oldest unsolved problem in physics. Over at Ars Technica, Lee Phillips has a nice overview of the situation, including what makes the problem so difficult:
The Navier-Stokes equation is difficult to solve because it is nonlinear. This word is thrown around quite a bit, but here it means something specific. You can build up a complicated solution to a linear equation by adding up many simple solutions. An example you may be aware of is sound: the equation for sound waves is linear, so you can build up a complex sound by adding together many simple sounds of different frequencies (“harmonics”). Elementary quantum mechanics is also linear; the Schrödinger equation allows you to add together solutions to find a new solution.
But fluid dynamics doesn’t work this way: the nonlinearity of the Navier-Stokes equation means that you can’t build solutions by adding together simpler solutions. This is part of the reason that Heisenberg’s mathematical genius, which served him so well in helping to invent quantum mechanics, was put to such a severe test when it came to turbulence.
Phillips goes on to describe some of the many methods researchers use to unravel the mysteries of turbulence computationally, experimentally, and theoretically. This is a great introduction for those curious to get a sense of how turbulence, stability theory, and computational fluid dynamics all fit together. (Image credits: L.
