unnnnbelievably hyped for project hail mary, I devoured that book faster than any other in my life and the trailer looks like everything I'd want from it. we got puppets. we got Ryland grace being a bit pathetic. we got cool unexplainable world ending problems. 9 months????? unbearable

[Upcoming movie] Project Hail Mary (March 20, 2026): 🚨FIRST TRAILER 🚨 11.9 Light-years from home. 6th grade science teacher. 1 chance to save us all. I've been waiting so long for this film. 🤗

Your Cherokee words for today. The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

My favourite part of having multiple devices with screens is that none of them display colour accurately so I can never tell if the thing that looks fine on my drawing tablet is being misrepresented by my phone, my laptop, or, in fact, the drawing tablet. And colour calibration hasn't even helped!

#makeaterriblecomicday2024 wow it’s that time of year again!

In addition to these never-before-seen cosmic neighbors, Rubin detected another ~1800 previously-known asteroids, bringing the total detections to just under 4000 in just 10.5 hours!🔭🧪 In other words, over half of Rubin's first detections are new discoveries☄️

i want to share a memory with you. a place from a long time ago.

For now on I propose that instead of categorizing #exoplanets by their properties, we do it by how cool they are. I propose 5 categories. From best to worst: 1) Proxima b. 2) Cool planet. 3) Random space rock. 4) Probably doesn't exist. 5) K2 18 b. Simpler and 100% more judgemental. Win-win.

Dodgers broadcast was discussing the science behind the perception of time between children and adults. After hearing the explanation, the color commentator pauses and asks, "Am I gonna feel any better?" Andy Pages then smashes a dinger into space, thus ending the existential crisis on commentary.

finally watched mickey17 (like 2 weeks after accidentally reading the whole book in a 12 hour period) and yeah yknow what definitely a banger of all time. keep putting mickey in situations im here for it (i sit visibly restraining myself from reading antimatter blues until my coursework is done)

Oh wow, this is *such* a cool concept - a 'game' procedurally generated from Wikipedia, in which you can literally traverse all of human knowledge and walk down rabbit holes

An incredible shot by astrophotographer Andrew McCarthy. McCarthy says the photo is one of the “most meticulously planned” shots of his career, which has seen no shortage of carefully-planned images that have captured the world’s imagination. #astrophotography #astronomy

I like that all of Orlando's traffic projects are now managed by someone's nephew who has a lot of hours in Cities Skylines

Ooh I want in on this trend. #WeReadComics If you love Rom coms and road trips you gotta get in on this. I freaking love A Thing Called Truth by @yozanfardino.bsky.social & @afterlaughs.bsky.social

I asked three physicists and a creative writing student to test my comics workshop and it received such reviews as "fun", "unintimidating" and "it's nice to focus on something other than physics". If you're in the @thewritingsquad.bsky.social sign up for my workshop this Saturday to join the fun!

My first first-author paper just dropped on arXiv ✨👩‍🔬🧪🔭 Introducing the KiloNova and Transients Program (KNTraP), a search specifically designed to find a kilonova. Check it out here to see the methods developed to scour the data for kilonova candidates, and what we found: arxiv.org/abs/2411.16136

Zoom into JWST's latest image of the star cluster NGC 602. Located near the outskirts of the Small Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, the cluster provides us with a good view of an area of relatively isolated star formation. esawebb.org/news/weic2425/

So this is pretty neat: the entirety of my webcomic is that huge stack of paper, next to the comics printed books! I am proud of the amount of work it took to finish GJS!
