Whatever it is, it's not working for me.

It works best for me when I'm seeing the middle part out of the corner of my eye.  Try looking at one of the corners and see if you notice any trippy dippy effects.

Sorry,  I must have made a save vs Illusions.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

That's trippy, I thought it was an animated gif at first.

Got it know, this small 10" screen I'm reading on doesn't help, so set to full screen.

Best effect for me is to slightly defocus and look to the blue languish border just outside the image, then it works well.  ;)

I like how this reddit thread blew up. Some idiot complaining about the police for uploading his idiotic phone call to 999:

So all of Europe is cloudy except Britain? How ironic.

Iran tried to pull a Salisbury in Denmark a few weeks ago also failing in their assassination attempt. They wanted some resident Iranian dissidents dead, but our intelligence service learned about and literally shut the entire island down until the targets were safe. One arrested so far.

So I keep getting these phone calls, with numbers originating from all over the world.  It's a recording saying that they are the Canada Revenue Agency, that there is a warrant for your arrest, and to please call them at a set number.

Now its obviously a scam - that's not how CRA, or arrest warrants, work.  Plus the fact they don't even use your own name is a kind of a hint.  But I keep getting these calls.  As does my wife.  And a lot of other people in Canada.  There've even been news reports about thesee scammers - apparently they're based in India.

My question - do they just target Canadians?  Or do they try this is other countries too?
