Please recommend some period romances to me? I'm reading the Bridgerton books and they're fun but in many respects they feel dated (notably in gendered assumptions). I've read all of @courtneymilan.com Obv open to queer stuff but will consider the straight kind too 😂

I drove myself from Walla Walla, WA, to Amherst, MA, in 4 days. I had just finished my thesis fieldwork in the Kootenay Arc and a visit to my grandma and had to get me and my car back for fall semester of my senior year. I was supposed to be caravanning with my advisor but her truck broke down.

I don't normally subscribe to the "German has a word for it" thing because all languages can invent and borrow new words! That said, I can't stop thinking about "hobbyless" as an insult since I saw it a few days ago, so here you go It promotes a growth mindset!! www.tumblr.com/abbiistabbii...

Which, geologically, isn’t surprising! But it’s still a relatively new and rare thing for planetary scientists to (sometimes) find what we expect to find when we form a hypothesis and send a spacecraft that can test that hypothesis with observations

FYI that I'm eligible for the Hugo Award for Best Fan Writer. While I did a ton of commentary and reporting last year on the SF/F genre and artificial intelligence, I'm most proud of my writings about being a neurodiverse author and my booklet "Tips and Strategies for Neurodiverse Writers." 1/

God I love that story Also, it's not exactly on topic, but since we're posting favorite Luthor panels:

Just discovered the paintbrushes I bought off Vinted belonged to a lady’s late daughter. 💔 I’d just said I’d put them to good use & had shared yesterday’s tree. Serendipitously she’d just planted a beautiful tree for her. She’s asked if I will share something I do with them with her… man… I shall

Not even going to be a little bit humble: I got in everywhere I applied, with funding. But I took a look around after I got there and was like, yep, the path to a possible professorship is truly terrible, and I’m not going to walk down it. So I left with a Master’s degree and don’t regret it.

This silver coin was likely struck in Syracuse in the 460s BC. Its depiction of a highly realistic octopus shows the incredible skill of the artist and the city’s close relationship with the sea. A mini-masterpiece. #AncientBlueSky 🏺
