Modern astrophysics exists because a house fell on a teenage orphan.

Who as a result got adopted by a prince.

He got access to a royal lab for glassmaking.

Then he tried fixing color aberration in his microscope lenses.

Then he noticed the rainbow had holes in it. Huh.

Then he died. Glassmaking and tuberculosis are fast friends.

Then Bunsen invented his burner, which made spectra that matched the rainbow holes. Huh.

Now we know what stars and planetary atmospheres are made of!

And for trying to pull the group along, as futile as it may be.

I respect it. We need more of this.

srsly what the fuck

I think they might mean independently 🤷‍♂️ Otherwise, the answer to your question would be “The United States.”

So night is just really weak day

I should call her

Dr. Blitz called Simulation Theory religion for tech bros and I can’t get it out of my head 😅

Was gifted a lightly used Keurig machine. Partner started noticing little roaches everywhere in the kitchen. She was halfway through a cup of coffee when she opened the water reservoir and spotted a few floating in the water. I opened the machine and the machine was full of them.

Roaches can lay up to 32 eggs/week, and I think a roach mom had at least one good week in the Keurig.

Friend had said he didn’t want it because it was attracting roaches. He claims to not have known it was carrying them.

Sounds like ball lightning

TIL

Next time it happens try to predict what will happen in the next 30 seconds and say it out loud or write it down before it happens. If you can’t, it’s natural Deja Vu

Now now.

You glance at other markers too, but 66 fires a special, primed network.

I’ve had cats and dogs, and in my sample, cats have been better at navigating boundaries. Also, the beans. Also, the everything.

Still an odd accusation to me… How does that privilege say anything about ego, given that history probably won’t remember the renamers specifically?

Um. The names aren’t being replaced with other personal names, and even if they were, it’s certainly not with the names of the people doing the replacement.

From what I’ve seen, a lot of the motivation to not have peoples’ names attached to things is because people have things attached to them (such as racism). Not saying that’s every case, but I’m sure that’s a significant factor behind the general push.

Some birb names have recently been changed, but it was more about reversing racial stereotypes. The tits and bananaquits got to stay

Two words: Seasonal regression
