Assassination is political violence So too is... Police violence Poverty Ecological destruction Censorship Demonization of sexual and gender minorities State sponsored religion Anti-intellectualism Gutting health care Genocide This is all political violence

See you at ThunderCon this weekend! So excited to be doing another @trektivism.bsky.social panel on Saturday. Also doing a #SciComm panel Sunday about Comet 3I/Atlas and the frenzy of both science and pseudo science surrounding its passage through our solar system. #space #TREKtivism

this is true and i wish there was a good alternative model for digital video that wasn't owned by google

Next time someone on the right claims all the political violence in this country is coming from the left, not the right, do please show them this. You're welcome

I'm making plasma - thousands of degrees - in a microwave at @spacecentreyvr.bsky.social. This one of the demos I did for our Cosmic Nights event this past Friday. Going to post a longer explanation but was excited to share a bit of it first! (Don't try this at home) #space #scicomm

I'm at Ottawa Comiccon this weekend Friday through Sunday, EY Center. Come by, say hi, and support the philosophy of pawraxis. #ottawacomiccon #comiccon

Remember this. The Nazis were defeated by geologists and car mechanics and school teachers and milkmen. Ordinary people from all over the world who risked their own lives to put the fascists in the ground where they belong.

"The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command..."

“Roughly two months before New York City’s mayoral election, Zohran Mamdani has raised enough money to hit the $8 million fund-raising cap.”

My book is absolutely great. My book is absolutely great. This is my mantra as I read it for the nth time while doing copyedit corrections. Please you guys preorder this book because I have suffered to deliver it to you lolsob (actually it really is great I’m just tired, please preorder)

This was 2 decades of my life. Conspiratorial thinking, makes us vulnerable to manipulation - especially political manipulation as seen in the rise of Right Wing Christian Nationalism. Vid by @gmskeptic.bsky.social 1/5 youtu.be/LS6CNpSwpEs?...

On #labourday, I reflected on my role at our Planetarium as a Union Shop Steward. Our union plays such an important role in our workplace. Union membership has been in decline for decades - it's no surprise that power is being further concentrated into fewer people. Solidarity! #laborday #unions

I just keep seeing evidence everywhere that so-called liberals and progressives have rapidly given up feeling responsible for remembering that people of color experience a different version of the world *because race is a thing* and have life worlds that white people are not privy to

1/3 Because this is all over. Loeb is a grifter. He's positioned himself as a bastion of science integrity while undermining the whole scientific process. Articles like this also demonstrate how poorly journalists understand science. #Atlas #SciComm #Space

Lest you say "it's not like that in the United States," I am currently representing a person facing criminal charges for - and this is true - saying "protect trans kids" during a school board meeting

Voice Acting lessons at Vancouver Film School. I enjoy narrating planetarium shows, conversations about the Cosmos at the observatory, podcasting. I've been inspired by animation/videogames and thought my voice experience could be transferred to acting as well-bringing inspiring characters to life.

UN office reports 757 settler attacks since January, up 13 percent from 2024, as deaths since January near 1,000.

Spent a lot of time with this one. It might have been a triangle, but it was the box art in our hearts.

A decade ago today, we made our closest approach of Pluto with the New Horizons mission. The probe was in transit for 9.5 years before arriving and is our only visit to the icy dwarf planet. This was one of the iconic images taken. Find more here: science.nasa.gov/image-detail... #space #astronomy

Well that was beautiful #Superman
