Collections manager and i gave tours today of the ore collection with specific emphasis on critical minerals, which neither of us are experts on 😅 Was actually pretty fun passing around refined ingots of various metals. Everyone was shocked by how dense tungsten is lol

Funny how ICE who is so allegedly fighting undocumented gang members has only managed to round up normal working class people, traumatize children, and fight US citizens in the streets.

Idk i guess i just dont enjoy how daily interactions in life have become inherently commodified. There's a pervasive market for recording and sharing experiences and the currency is validation. Its OK to experience things without the intended purpose of showing people you experienced it.

This is gonna sound like a boomer take but- there's a group of elementary school kids currently dancing with a street performer in front of the museum and lots of passersby taking out their phones to film them. I kinda wish happiness and spontaneity wasnt so constantly surveiled by strangers

The Presidents Budget Request for NASA is out. It’s a bloodbath Canceled are DAVINCI, VERITAS, Juno, OSIRIS-APEX, US participation in ExoMars and EnVision… Huge cut to R&A. No funding to begin development of the Uranus Orbiter. If you’ve ever cared about NASA, time to contact congress.

Both collections managers were out today so i helped one of the curators give tours of the gem vault and it was a lot of fun but i had no template of what to say so i was kinda just shotgunning gem facts at all the interns lol

Some of the worst parts of the Republican plan are timed to hit after the midterms. Which means it's crafted so that they get to blame Democrats for the ensuing pain in time for the 2028 election. And of course, it will work.

There will come a breaking point soon where society will need to reconcile choosing to either fight back, with force, or to concede kidnappings as normal occurences under the guise of 'as long as it isnt me' As a nation that mostly already subscribes to individualism, the future doesnt seem hopeful
