Eerie or beautiful? Or eerily beautiful? 🤔 #NASA #blackholesound

The misconception that there is no sound in space originates because most space is a ~vacuum, providing no way for sound waves to travel. A galaxy cluster has so much gas that we've picked up actual sound. Here it's amplified, and mixed with other data, to hear a black hole!

Can we please all agree that this experiment of giving a dumb TV host and shady real estate developer with no government knowledge, 6 bankruptcies, 68 charges of sexual assault, 7,300 lawsuits, and $1,000,000,000 in debt our nuclear secrets did not go well at all?

What we learned from COVID? That oil is worthless in a society without consumption. That healthcare has to be public because health is public. That 50% of jobs can be done from home while the other 50% deserve more than they're being paid. That we live in a society not an economy

It would be fascinating if a cure for fibromyalgia came out of these studies on Long Covid.

"The factor that REALLY differentiated the long-COVID patients from the healthy controls... was low cortisol. Iwasaki called the low cortisol levels “highly predictive” + noted that they alone were enough to determine who had long COVID + who was healthy." healthrising.org/blog/2022/08/0

If you urgently need a meal, there's no emergency number to call. But if you steal food, there's a 24 hour response so you can be punished for it (it's not a crime prevented by force, just by food). How we design our emergency responses reflects our values but also inertia.

Jordan Peele is 3 for 3 with #NopeMovie The sound design coupled with his incredible eye for the perfect shot made this one eerie movie. Always a huge fan of alien movies, Nope gives the viewer lots to think about. See this one on the big screen.

This is kind of random but public libraries are so important to me. I could go even far as to say it changed my young adult life. Library was a place to get away from unhappy home, get lost for hours in all the books, graphic novels, magazines, cd’s, etc. The summer reading

It’s getting real goofy having to beg for access at conferences. Me: “I am disabled and at high risk of severe COVID outcomes. What safety measures are in place to make this event equitable & inclusive?” Organizers: “uhhhh...” It’s been almost 3 years. Figure it out.

I'm seeing publishing professionals once again recommending "write every day" and wanted to remind y'all, especially disabled authors and authors working multiple jobs, that you don't have to get a specific # of words on a page every day to be a writer.

After 2+ years of vigilance & 3 jabs, I rolled the Corona roulette wheel & lost. Turns out I was right to be worried about getting #Covid. My body seriously hates the spiked f@!&er! Pretty certain #Paxlovid is only reason I’m not in the hospital right now.

It's always "$600 checks two years ago and 50-cent raises for workers are causing inflation" and never "$3 trillion from the Fed to bail out the stock market, $1 trillion in annual corporate stock buybacks and a 1,322% rise in CEO pay since 1978 are causing inflation"

If Collins and Manchin feel betrayed by Kavanaugh and Gorsuch, they should join all senate Democrats to carve out a reproductive rights exemption to the filibuster and enact national abortion rights. Do it Monday.
