Good Morning! I'm Jake Roper. It's like that scene from Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls.
Uhh and did you know that a group of cats is called a clowder and that elephants use the
skin folds to crush mosquitoes.
That might seem like a useless fact...s .net but it's actually a DONG. This is slowly covering my eyes. Can't see.
DONG stands for do online now guys. I'm blind.
If painting isn’t your strong suit, but music is, use hpsoundincolor.com.
Record a song and watch as it makes beautiful creations based on what it hears.
I’m going to make up my own rap and see what it looks like.
“Yo everyone who’s watching DONG -- I’m here to write you an awesome rap song.”
Flavor Flav.
Now who’s gonna sing about me?
Giorgio cam will.
Take a photo of anything you want and this site will make a song about it.
That is stellar, figuratively speaking.
But for a literally stellar DONG check out
The European Space Agency’s satellite, Gaia which is on a mission to chart a 3D map of
our galaxy.
The first batch of data released September 2016 included the positions of over 1
billion stars.
One billion stars is a LOT so this website made a map of two million for us to explore.
You can click, drag, zoom in and out.
It gives you a feel for just how enormous the Milky Way is because you have to scroll
for a while before seeing the sun.
Here we can see the distance from Earth to the Sun and it’s about 150 million km.
Saturn is about 1.4 billion km away.
Now saTURN your attention to
Makemarshome.com.
This site gets you prepared to live on the Red Planet by going through your qualifications,
evaluating you, and putting your skills to the test.
I’ll check my eligibility first.
How many times do I run a week?
Five or more. Of course.
Am I prone to motion sickness?
No, not at all.
How much thought do I give to keeping a balanced diet?
A lot. Tacos are balanced. Right? Tacos?
Now to test my flying ability.
Use the mouse to navigate through each guidance target.
After this, get evaluated with tests like Martian Botany but that just sounds like every
Saturday night so I’ll take a stab at something like base engineering.
Connect all the modules for an airtight base.
They can be rotated to fit together but make sure not to build on top of any obstacles.
When the structure is ready, click pressurize to see if it passes the test.
Would ya look at that intelligence.
No, seriously, look at that intelligence with
FINR.net, an interactive diagram of the human brain.
Click this icon to pick from different parts like the cerebral arteries, hippocampus, or
frontal lobe.
The window on the right gives you information on things like its function, location, and what happens when it's damaged.
The list from this icon contains injuries that result from trauma to the brain.
For example, a stroke is caused by a restriction of blood flow to it by a blood clot.
For a more comprehensive understanding of our health let’s move on to
Airview.blueair.com, which makes the invisible, visible by showing us what
pollutants are in the air we breath right now.
Type in a city to see what’s floating around like bacteria and viruses, tire and brake
wear particles, or, ozone gas.
You can click on each one to read about how it can affect us and what it is.
In Honolulu, Hawaii, the air quality is 14 on the Air Quality Index, which is good.
So we know where the good air is but where’s that cat gosh DONGit?
Oh there you are in the sink.
And in the shed!
This game takes you through a series of messy rooms where you find whatever the cat needs
at each level.
Like a glass of water or this red circle thing.
Oh meow *seductive voice* Look at you in that ugly christmas sweater that I designed on
uglysweaters.work.
How do I know it’s mine?
I signed my name here at the bottom and it also has taco that I drew on the sleeve. Taco bout fashion. HA!
But surprisingly this isn't really my calling but maybe it's
being a soldier, which I have yet to try but this chart on verdantlabs.com shows you which
names are most likely to have certain professions.
Michael is supposed to be a meteorologist or a football coach. I could see both of those things.
And Kevin should be a police officer. Which makes sense because he always arrests my attention with fascinating videos.
Links to all the DONGs can be found in the description below.
And if you want more DONGs, there is a playlist right here filled with them.
I have enjoyed our time together. This is the only time I get to spend talking to another person.
I'm trapped in this room. Umm...they...they're holding me hostage.
and I don't...oh, oh...okay...okay!! I'll say it! I'll say it! I'm so sorry!
*crying* And as always, thanks for watching. Not the hose.
So uncomfortable. It's like hitting my eyebrow piercing. Ow!
I'm blind. I'm blind! Help! Help!
