I'm once more reminded of this timeless quote from Christopher Clark's book on the 1848 Revolutions in Europe

nah think i will continue to do my writing and thinking in-house and not atrophy my brain to send faster emails

This Pride month, don’t forget about the trans and gnc activists who made this happen. People like Sylvia Rivera and Marsha P Johnson, whose leadership at Stonewall has now been stricken from all government websites by a Trump administration that wants us erased from history.

@chanda.bsky.social I see now why you've gone to watch Sinners a double-digit number of times in theaters. Partner and I finally had a night to go see it and HOLY FUCK. Even apart from having *so much* going on, probably the best theater movie I've seen since Fury Road

I will never not be fascinated by neutrinos and their weird little particle fuckery.

Elected Democrats seem to be from at least 445 million years ago because there's not a vertebrate to be found among them

Can't wait till they figure out how to combine this feature with Grok's Holocaust denial

- Babe, I'd kill like 10 guys for you. - Would you start showering every day and stop listening to Rogan? - 20 guys!

"In this photo, the animal is standing up and spreading its arms, showing a body shape similar to Gavin McInnes." It's good to be pro-alt text for accessibility reasons, obviously. But also, sometimes that shit's just funny

It is so god damn frustrating that the only reason anyone *really* gets to do science in the USA is to support the American capitalist, imperialist project.

As long as we’re talking about Naomi Wolf I want to remind you once again about the time she thought Apple invented vaccines that let you travel backwards in time

This is so fucking exciting! The Rubin Observatory is going to be such a revolutionary tool for understanding our universe. But also, astronomers, please stop using the second letter of a word in your acronyms and such

me: fuck quillette Also me: this is delicious

Now this is the kinda thing I love waking up to

💁🦋 Is this carcinization?

NEW: Archived tweets for Gavin Kriger, Musk's 20-something DOGE employee wreaking havoc inside USAID, shows that Kriger has retweeted multiple neo-Nazis including Nick Fuentes, leader of the so-called Groyper movement, and another popular explicit Nazi account recently unmasked by @travisbrown.dev

Me on day 2

Today and in the coming days, remember

Look, if Russia is investing millions of dollars and dozens of troll farms to oppose and smear a candidate in your country, then that’s the fucking person you need to elect.

When you turn it on and it works spectacularly! The Rubin team has successfully completed the first on-sky engineering tests using the 144-Mpx engineering camera. Up next: installing the largest digital camera in the world, LSST Camera! 🔭🧪 rubinobservatory.org/news/rubin-completes-comcam-tests

Day 2 of the new job, got my key that gets me into most of the places on campus I'll need to access. (Except, oddly enough, my office; but I have card access to that from the outside at least.) So of course the first thing I do is check out the old mechanical planetarium (made in the 60s!)

New job, new office! Got some organization/decoration to do still, but it's mine!

"...a pervasive fear of the lower orders also paralysed the revolution in its later stages, making it easier to play different interests off against each other, to woo liberals into the arms of the established authorities, and to isolate radicals as enemies of the social order." Never changes huh?
