Two girls, 2yo and 97yo, spanning 4 generations during midsummer. ❤️ Perhaps nowadays, it's a rather common thing to be able to meet your grand-grand kids (and vice versa), but I continue to be amazed and grateful that it is possible.

May I suggest that we stop thinking in terms of good and evil. At best, there is a gradient, where most people are decent human beings.

I never tire of looking at this picture. Walking back from humans to bacteria, you feel a bit of #Dawkins "Mount Improbable" dizzying. The more an organism resembles us, the more recent our common ancestor. Logical of course, but now you see it visually; a dinosaur looks more like us than a shrimp.

Little did I know. All living organisms radiate light. Nothing we can see, that light is about a thousand times weaker than our eyes can detect. But when the cells die... those biophotons disappear. ❤️ science Image: Salari et al., J. Phys. Chem. Lett., 2025.

🧠🗯️ Why do people fall for BS? A new meta-analysis finds that belief in motivational quotes, conspiracy theories, and intuition is linked to higher bullshit receptivity – while stronger reasoning skills help guard against it. 🔗 doi.org/10.1002/acp.... #SciComm #Psychology 🧪

Franz Schubert at the piano with Josephine Frölich at one of the musical gatherings, drawn in 1827 by the Austrian painter Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller. Was this the night when Schubert got inspired by a Swedish folk song "Se solen sjunker ner"?

A Swedish folk song was the inspiration for one of Schubert his master pieces. Can you guess which one by just listening? #schubert #sweden 🇸🇪 youtu.be/OupofJpEmrU?...
