Over the last month, I’ve bought my nephew and niece, in order, pan flutes, harmonicas, jaw harps, and kalimbas. Nothing expensive but we’re enjoying making music together. Keeping an eye out for future additions. I have no idea what I’m doing, but they don’t either. We’re learning together. 🖖🏻

Andor is back and so good. The tension and buildup of who was coming over in episode 3 was some of the most real thing in SW. 😂 Definitely recommend rewatching season 1. I wish I had. Need a refresher on who some of these people are.

This wasn't a good show, but this monologue comes to mind every now and then. Well, a lot lately.

An astronomy professor colleague of mine once relayed trying to explain to his students why it was important that they actually write their class reports themselves. “The point is not to teach ME about neutron stars,” he said.

NASA is something every American can be and should be proud of. And for every dollar spent on it, it returns more on that investment to the economy. Example: Their 2023 budget was $25B, and they added over $75B to the economy that year. This is a horrible decision.

there are so many things WOTC could have done to protect Nile that were not "capitulate to bigotry and rip the rug out from under her." they could have disabled comments. they could have deleted the specific offenders. they could have ignored them entirely. they could have ASKED NILE WHAT SHE WANTED

One critique of it. Not crediting the artist that I can tell. Need to fix that asap, Apple.

Honestly, one of the best features they’ve added in a while.

Absolutely one of the most beautiful movie stars we ever had, and very often the best thing about the movies he was in.

Every part of this is senseless and destructive.

This was a great era for the SciFi Channel. Farscape. Battlestar. Stargate. Eureka. Warehouse 13. And all the miniseries like Dune. On and on.

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away. They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

The thing about scientific research is that it’s one of the few national investments that’s a clear public good even if you entirely discount the actual ostensible point of it.

The erosion of trust in science & scientists — sometimes due to complex social/historical factors but often deliberately perpetrated by charlatans — has tragic, deadly consequences, and, if unchecked, is an existential threat to society.

I didn’t know about sub-minimum wage. Highly recommend a listen, especially if you didn’t either. 🖖🏻

Cobra Kai finished the fight! An amazing final season with some truly “Holy shit!” moments (in a good way) and what an ending.

Very minor gripe of these times. One thing that annoys me about the Apple Watch is ringtones. Still don’t have the option to mirror them with ya phone.

In STNG Captain Picard quotes Judge Aaron Satie: With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censored, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied chains us all irrevocably." I strongly advise everyone to read today's badastronomy newsletter by Phil Plait. Stand up.

Never been an ebook guy. Not sure why. But! I’ve been reading graphic novels on my iPad with my nephew. That I’m loving.

Helped my mom make the nephew a Valentine’s Day shirt. He’s 7, very kind hearted, and wears his heart on his sleeves. A lot is going on in the world that’s really messed up, but it’s little things like this that help me keep my chin up and fighting. 🖖🏻
