Your aperiodic reminder that Mercury has a weirdly HUGE core for reasons we do not yet understand. It's less a planet and more a molten ball bearing wrapped in a thin blanket of rock.

I'd really like it if the UK and the US could finish having their decade-long duelling banjos contest of who can be the most terrible place to live.

Was just thinking that some problematic words are so commonplace I don't even know what equivalents I could replace them with. But then I remembered I've been saying the word "gonzonzardy" since I was 6 and just expecting people to figure out what it means based on context, so I think I'll be okay.

Also by the same token if there's something I say that is hurtful to a marginalised group, mention it to me. I'll hear you out. I'm not knowingly just going to keep causing harm because it's accepted in the status quo.

I'm really starting to lose my patience with remaining silent when I see someone using blindness as a synonym for ignorance. Mostly I don't speak up because I assume I'm going to be ignored and nothing will change. But I would really like to not have to go in assuming it's a lost cause.

Wood is like skin for trees, and so skin glue and wood glue are basically the same. That's what I'm going to tell my doctor when they ask.

Turquoise. It is both green and blue, and yet, neither green nor blue. And depending on who you ask, opinions may vary on how green or blue it is. It cannot be labelled. It's me, everyone. I am turquoise.

bsky.app/starter-pack... This comics podcast starter by @mrtonynacho.bsky.social is great, but there's so many people in there it's taking me ages to go through it all. Are there any podcasts by disabled/neurodiverse hosts, interested in having disabled/ND creators as guests, specifically?

@wordsofdiana.bsky.social just finished reading Sex Lives of Superheroes, and I was wondering: do you think a speedster with permenantly accerated mental chronometry would have trouble experiencing pleasure during sex with a non-speedster due to everything moving in slo-mo from their pov?
