Way more Superbowl posts than I expected tbh.

New video out explaining why Saturn thinks hexagons are the bestagons! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8YL13r2/

New video out, explaining something about light that I definitely take for granted. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8YeXMm2/

Yeah so it turns out we know a lot about the moon! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8FtNxf6/

Giving a talk in half an hour on unpublished, incomplete work. Here goes nothing! 😅

GRILLED THREESE

How's the saying go? Another conference day filled with algebraists talking about things I don't understand while I struggle to pay attention, another dollar? ... Yeah I think that's it

SOBBING IS DONE WE'RE BACK

So instagram sucks and there's no sense of community between creators on YouTube. Bluesky doesn't have good video posting features (and no algorithm to speak of). Are we just boned?

To all the people that said I would still have access to TikTok - guess whose laughing now? ... Not me, I don't have access anymore 😭

Saying goodbye to TikTok is hard. Cultivating an audience the felt like catching lightning in a bottle - and sure, I'll be on YouTube and other places, but it probably won't be the same. But here's to a new chapter!

I love seeing a new @seanmcarroll.bsky.social paper pop up on the arxiv. Haven't read it yet, but I can't wait! arxiv.org/pdf/2501.06609

Turns out ADHD is a helluva drug

I don't think I know how to use bluesky properly. I guess I'm used to my thoughts either staying in my head or only being heard by Mrs. Dr. Blitz?

Honestly I'm really proud of this video. Symplectic geometry and physics explained in less than three minutes? www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8FMYajQ/

So gravastars are neat. Come learn about them! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8FNQrPF/

Hey y'all I'm on vacation in Venice. But a mathematician you might know was born here! So come watch about Guido Fubini. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8FJTWvB/

Um I'm pretty sure that this clock is wrong.

So this is going to sound stupid but who woulda thunk the pasta in Milan is so good? 🤣

Cosmology probably isn't dead, but certainly Manchak's theorem is a bit worrying! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8NTB8pq/

On my way to Milan!

Realizing that there are only like 4 Hanukkah movies despite us founding Hollywood makes me sad. We need a braveheart style story of Judah the Hammer... and Mel Gibson can do it! He'd earn back out trust if he did it well 😅

You may have seen news about dark energy being debunked recently. Long story short, probably not. But watch for more info! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8N7s1EM/

So space is dark and it's surprising we didn't know why until like the 1900s. Here ya go. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8NWjwm6/

Hey, ever want to know how a quantum algorithm works? Check out my new video on a simple one! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8NsyqFR/

I'm really not sure why people are talking about ANITA again with the backwards universe stuff, but here ya go. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8NVkXAU/

In yesterday's video, I made a stupid 5-second claim that was wrong. So here's a correction! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8NC1sNk/

Here's my best attempt to explain some stuff about quantum computing. It's hard though, without going into explicit algorithms. Have fun! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8N9n5xv/

Feeling cute, decided to post a video about topological gravity in 2+1d. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8Nm9S4v/

So I'm pretty disappointed in Google's reporting of the new Willow chip. I "debunk" (or rather clarify) in this new video. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8NUp3Hv/

New video up, debunking and dismissing some nonsense flat earth stuff. Enjoy! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8N8k1mF/

If you ever try to separate me from my kitty I will end life as we know it.

Officially in Canada. I was expecting snow/cold, but I was not prepared for YYC to just be pure white.

So I'm technically on the clock because I'm currently traveling for work. And they served this:

What's your 10/10 album?

Have I skeeted yet about how painful international travel is? I just got finished with jetlag coming back from Nepal, then woke up at 6:30 *yesterday* and had to get on a bus at 2am today to travel internationally again. No sleep between the two. I would like my suffering to end please.

The anthropic principle is really powerful. Come check out my new video on it! #physics www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8NeLoL2/

It's that time of year when the best up-and-coming Christmas market in Europe is out, and I got me a classic klobasa lunch. Super yummy for like $6!

Just posted a new video about the Compton generator. I had no idea this kind of stuff was still being figured out in the 20th century. #physics www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8N1M6Qf/

So those of you who have been following me for a while know I try to post a video around 9-11am eastern time. But I'm so jetlagged I just posted a video even though it's 3am ET. Man my brain is so broken right now.

Is being annoyed that you're waiting at the airport for your departure time to crawl towards you a universal experience?

Have there been any studies on man-flu? I'm convinced there's got to be some biological reason why I feel so much worse when I get a cold than my wife. I mean like I get fevers and so-on and she gets a scratchy throat for a day 😭

Turns out mountains have a maximum size and Everest is just about there. Also I included pictures I took! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8LWLETU/

Today is Caturday, so you know what that means! Blep!

So apparently, my politics haven't really changed since I was 7. My policy positions include: - lower inflation - seek advice from experts (my brother) - ban weapons - better schools - peace-first diplomacy (and no nukes) - universal healthcare - move the white house to a place with better weather

Never thought I'd see Mt. Everest in person, but here we are!

So I'm on a plane, about to go see Mt. Everest (and a plethora of other Himalayan peaks). I saw them from the plane yesterday, but it should be incredible today. Look for the follow-up for pictures!

Hey y'all, just recorded a new video explaining why you don't need to be particularly afraid of black holes. Hope you enjoy! #physics www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8L43vXF/

We made it to Doha Hamad! Half way through the journey... Next stop Nepal.

Just got a reply back from the referees from Classical and Quantum Gravity. It's looking like my quantum gravity paper will be accepted - with revisions, of course! Now onto the long process of working appeasing referees. #physics
