This is amazing. If you cross your eyes and focus on the middle image you get an awesome 3D effect of one of the hundreds of Frieda Kahlo’s self portraits.
Make sure that no one else is in the room who might bonk you on the head while your eyes are crossed because they might stay that way (according to your mom) and you won’t be able to enjoy The Overnight Open Thread.

A Commie bisexual Mexican artist from the 1920′s and 30′s. Wife of muralist Diego Rivera. Leon Trotsky lived at their house for a while, shortly before Stalin’s agents caught up with him and gave him the icepick. She had affairs with Trotsky and Josephine Baker.
She’s become a cult figure among lefty multiculti types.

Researchers now view glaucoma as a disease of the brain – a neurodegenerative disease – rather than simply an eye disease. Recent research has shown that the complex connection between the eye and the brain is an important key to the disease.
