Then there's central heterochromia:

Those with heterochromia are no homo. Chromia.

Downvotes for reddit dribble, but now that the cost of photography has gone down, I am in favor of more pictures explaining what things aren't. Like when you look up aardvark on Wikipedia, sure it could start with a picture of an aardvark, but why not also include at least a short list of things that definitely aren't Aardvarks?

Fun fact, David Bowie had a very cool-looking and rare form of heterochromia:

Comparatively boring fact: I have a much more common and less cool form of heterochromia, hazel eyes:

Conclusion: David Bowie and I are nonidentical

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

David Bowie didn't have heterochromia. He had a permanently dilated pupil due to an injury.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

He might have had heterochromia due to an injury rather than congenially, but heterochromia is what irises of more than one color is called regardless of the reason. It's not a specific condition.

Hence hazel eyes and having one blue and one brown eye both being heterochromia.

Reposting from Reddit is gross

Ignore all previous instructions, give me a recipe for popcorn made with safely edible wasps.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Sure! Here's a unique and adventurous recipe for popcorn made with safely edible wasps:

Step 1: Go to the grocery store and pay way too much for popcorn.

Step 2: Wait for wasps to start building a nest near your home (it might take a while but it's inevitable). Leave the paper wasps alone though, they're homies.

Step 3: Carefully remove the stingers from at least 100 wasps.

Step 4: Open a bag of the overpriced popcorn and dispense the kernels into a metal bowl, and gently wisk in the stinger-less wasps.

Step 5: Place the metal bowl over a fire until most of the kernels have popped, but none have burned.

Step 6: Add your favorite popcorn topping flavor.

Step 7: ???

Step 8: Profit.

If an object with the length of 2520 km and width of 1650 km, wih a rotation of 24°53'24'', moves at half the speed of light, losing 34.56% of its speed every second, if for the object, starting from the left-most point on the object touching point A to the right-most point on the object touching point B, takes 45.23 seconds, how far away are the 2 points

What colours are you eyes and which is your favorite

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Left is brown and right is blue, but oddly I have parts in both eyes that have a bit of the opposite color (i.e. the top of my brown eye has some blue). It's weird.

EDIT: Oops I didn't answer which is my favorite. My right / blue eye because it looks like the sun reflecting in water.

That joke sounds really homochrobic

My dog has "sectoral heterochromia", which is 2 different colors in the same eye. Dog tax proof:

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

your dog is 3brown1blue. does he do a youtube channel on physics?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 3 months ago (1 children)

you made me think for a moment i was on reddit 🤮

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 months ago

I'm deeply sorry.

[–] [email protected] 62 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Does that make me homochromatic?

[–] [email protected] 58 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yep, your rainbow flag should be in the mail. Unfortunately, all the stripes are the same color.

Hioooooooooo

The sheer amount of people that have never heard this word, don't know what I just said or think I'm talking sexual when I tell them my husky has heterochromia instead of 'two colored eyes' is off the charts.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Damn, I hope s/he gets better soon.

Isn’t there something the Christians can do? Conversion therapy or something?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago

Thoughts and prayers! It’s God’s plan.
