Our Solar System is orbiting the center of our Galaxy at about 220 km/s so in 2025 we collectively traveled something like 7 billion kilometers across the Milky Way. Once in a while, when you have a moment, it’s worthwhile to take a look around, see where you are, and appreciate how far you’ve come.

Been listening to an audiobook reader and trying to figure out if it’s my accent or his that is unusual. Looking for data! For you: Does “shone” rhyme with “gone” or “zone”? Does “waft” rhyme with “daft” or “soft”? @lingthusiasm.bsky.social

I pointed out to Rep. Virginia Foxx that the Congressional elevator had arrived at our floor, as she was about to hurry to a vote. (I had just come from visiting my Rep's staffer to talk about science funding, and was waiting for the plebian elevator)

"Delivery update: Your package is on the way but running late. We're sorry for the delay. Now arriving tomorrow." Me: Okay, then what is this that I'm holding in my hand that was in the mailbox this morning?

Damn you, little h! (proper credit to arxiv.org/abs/1308.415...)

Pour one out for Jim Moylan

Many many runner ups in this category, but always #1. Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, or Alice in Chains.

I'm looking for a good guide of how to do a false color image with 4 input channels? 3 is straightforward (RGB); I'm sure people have thought about what works with 4 inputs, but so far I'm coming up blank. Would be grateful for suggestions!

I do love listening to Spotify's "Your Top Songs 2025" because (a) they're all bangers, (b) it goes from Celtic to punk to electroswing to Finnish hip hop to Prince to industrial over the course of 5 songs.

Never been a fan of egg nog lattes at any coffee shop, but decided to do my own at home... and I don't know what they're doing wrong, because this is delicious!

Obliquity shows its hand in one hemisphere’s return to light and another’s to darkness. The planet spins and revolves; its axis precesses. We celebrate, or mourn, and begin anew. Happy solstice.

Roll Tide, let’s get some revenge!

This may seem niche, but I have a Calvin Klein shirt that fits me extremely well (unusual for a long sleeve shirt, usually the shoulders look awful). I have the code from the tag. Absolutely nothing comes up relevant when I search the code. How can I find it to order more?

Wait... Miami got in over Notre Dame, after being ranked behind them last week and neither of them played in the meantime??? That, uh, doesn't make a lot of sense.

I know people are saying they're finding odd things on their #SpotifyWrapped, but I'm listening to my Top Songs of 2025 and they're all bangers! 1/ open.spotify.com/playlist/37i...

Damn, I really love this album.

This feels like a moment where Republican members of Congress will start distancing themselves from the admin (Trump obv, but also Hegseth, RFK) for their own protection.

Finally getting a chance to watch my first PWHL game of the season! Not looking like a good one to start on though. #OttawaCharge

What we clearly need is some Hans Island Dispute discourse.

Roll Tide!

Ah, the dulcet tones of the teenage step siblings bonding over Cards Against Humanity.

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.
