The genius of Darlene Mitchell can be seen in the pancakes. The pancakes so fixated my eyes that I cannot tell you what any of the other queens were wearing at the beginning of the show tonight. And I don't even like pancakes.

Finally some clarity on the #STFC budget: it's falling in real terms as UKRI spending rises. A conscious decision has been made to decrease UK funding for fundamental physics, despite all the evidence that our blue skies research is key for economic growth. Thank you @resprofnews.bsky.social!

If this is correct, then the claim that the issues in STFC are mostly to do with increased costs, inflation, exchange rates, and being overly ambitious would appear to not be true!

My dream casting for Lwaxana Troi in the present is Susan Sarandon

You can see why the exo-zodiacal light becomes an issue in imaging exo-Earths. Imagine turning this background glow around another star up by say 10x and the pale blue dot getting lost in the glare.

It snowed in Edinburgh on Sunday *buffs nails on shirt*

Ew. Neither. If you have to eat those vile things, then one of the fruity syrups from IHOP. Butter would also be better.

as the founding fathers intendend, the most reliable source of what is happening in our nation's capitol is: @musicologyduck.bsky.social

FB keeps sending me emails about memories I have from 17 years ago lately for some reason

Federalist (like Hamilton) arrives today: Good news! The executive branch has consolidated more power than ever before! Both the Congress and courts bow to its will. Bad news. The office is decided by a couple thousand people in Pennsylvania, thanks to the electoral college.

is the danger zone near the neutral zone

I admit to being very confused about the land where I live, especially as, adjacent to this, academics in other parts of the world acknowledge the indigenous people where they're based. Is Scotland a land ruled by its indigenous people? Or should we consider the Vikings, Normans, and even Romans?

Just saw a sticker for a march against the far right on 28 March (past) and I was like, just the far right? What about the regular right? Hell, it's about time we march against the center left

is being a transporter clone a pre-existing condition

Space what where now?

dammit! i was cleaning the kitchen. i had 23:54 in my head...

Picard and Data have a conversation about Trans Rights. #StarTrek #TransRightsAreHumanRights #TransDayOfVisibility (Cross posted from the original at x.com/FoundEpisode... )

Security personnel, I have imbibed an Earth weed and it is having an effect. I need to know who is conspiring against me. Report. Worf

For myself, I also want to add this: I am a regularly-attends-church Christian. I am deeply sorry for how much horrible harm is done by folks who also call themselves Christian. Please know that at least some of us actually want to love and support trans folks ❤️‍🩹

It sure seemed like that was their #1 job when I was a kid growing up - on every single road trip...

To complement Trans Visibility Day there should be a Bigots Disappearing-Never-To-Reappear Day. #TransVisibilityDay

Oh my

The lyric "fashion shoot with Beck and Hanson" drives me insane because did the New Radicals NOT know that Beck's last name IS Hansen?!?!

when was capitalism cured

I struggle to reconcile George Harrison being a musical genius with one of his best known works being a schlocky cover of a 1960s African American artist. Was it just a commercial track that got too famous? A genuine appropriation (since most people like me assumed he wrote it when it came out)?

big data

I don't know any the big short, but I'd add Margot Robbie's role in Wuthering Heights. As a good friend said, not a fan of a blonde Cathy...

jokes on him I just added an hour to all the dryers

Same. And wow. It's been a while since an episode of Drag Race went so hard against a (THE?!) front runner. #MykiMeeks

Proud to announce that my first PhD paper has now been accepted and is live on arXiv!! arxiv.org/abs/2603.24662 In this paper I provide the first analyses of JWST spectra of a sample of young, co-eval L dwarfs, focusing on the silicate absorption and whether there are any equator-to-pole variations.

I hope we get the govt back soon because it can do such cool things

GIANT. TELESCOPE.

Dorothy, Blanche, and Rose each each posed nude for a Hungarian sculptor named Laszlo (Tony Jay); as an alien politician named Campio he left Lwaxana Troi at the altar *because she was nude* (in accordance with Betazoid custom).

University Challenge question about a 'wheel of fortune' --> me listening to the Ace of Base album 'The Sign' this past week.

First tattoo I ever saw was a number on the arm of a member of my extended family. I no longer immediately jump to that every time I see a tattoo, but it’s never too far from my mind. And if you have or want tattoos go find your joy, but it’s why I certainly will never (voluntarily) get one.

We’ve been overdue for an updated landing animation… We got one for Titan discovery day!

Summer cant come fast enough. Dont care if its gonna be 130 F.
