Need a mind-blowing fact for today? 🤯 The light from 25,000 supernovae may be on its way here from the Andromeda Galaxy. I was fortunate to be able to study one of them whose light got here in 1885, and was visible to the naked eye! badastronomy.beehiiv.com/p/naked-eye-... [Paid subbies only]

If I'm alone, my life is a depressingly hopeless disaster. If I'm talking about my life with someone, it's a strangely entertaining dystopian dark comedy routine interspersed with facts about astronomy, astrophysics, and fungi 🤷‍♀️

Mood suddenly plummets 1. Call crisis line--no answer 2. Scroll through contacts to find someone I haven't already overburdened with my depression 3. Choose a victim & txt "Hi" 4. Look at stars waiting for a reply 5. Start feeling better because I'm looking at stars⭐️🌟⭐️

It blows my mind that the catholic church once tied people to stakes and burned them alive for questioning their magic book, spent hundreds of years systematically torturing innocent people and turned a blind eye to a decades long pattern of child sexual abuse and everyone's still like, that's cool

I don't think people realize I'm autistic until they try to have an actual back-and-forth conversation with me. 🤔Though I probably only THINK I sound neurotypical when I talk about something really cool for 10 straight minutes without breathing

Timelapse of Jupiter's Great Red Spot. 32 images taken over about 50 minutes, playing at 10 frames a second. I've looped the movie as its quite short otherwise! The GRS has been around for at least several hundred years but is a lot smaller than it used to be. #astrophotography 🔭

Step one: I've begun applying for college in 3 years or so, before I'm 60 years old, I'm going to be a science teacher

I think, if I had the money to pay my expenses I would go to college full time & work hard every summer... and become a science teacher. Assuming science and teachers still exist in 4 years. I'd be that 60 year-old queer nonbinary science teacher. Kids would assume I was insane, but they'd like me

I spend an inordinate amount of time each moment trying to determinine the origin of every sound, smell and vibration I'm able to perceive. I need a non-claustrophobia-inducing isolation tank. Until I get one, loud music in the tub will have to do

www.astronomy.com/science/aste... That's a relief. I was planning to retire 2 years after that. That would have cosmic punch in the boob, or the sensitive anatomy of your choosing

I like being alone, but I'm also afraid of dying alone & how horrible that would be for the person or people who find me. I've considered an app I need to check in as alive regularly or else it automatically alerts someone. Alternatively, I could simply attend regular social events & have friends

My eyes hurt from crying and I'm far far from okay but, for now, hopelessness has subsided noticeably

I probably should have just stayed employed & worked at a job that made me unhappy until I died, like a normal person. Now I get to be unemployed & unhappy and eventually lose everything I've ever worked for in life & then die

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.
