Robert Benchley: "There is no limit to what I can get done in a day - provided it is not what I am supposed to be doing."

Family arguments, passive aggressive behaviors, name calling, body shaming, low self-esteem....it's in there!

in honor of The Onion officially taking over InfoWars, what’s a conspiracy theory you 100% believe? It's not that we never went to the Moon. It's that we never stopped going! Undisclosed locations = Moon Base Alpha Prime

As an outgoing introvert, I salute my brother from another mother. 🫡

As a proud first-gen college graduate of the City College of New York, I can't upvote this enough!

Active materials could be used to make devices that spontaneously crawl over a difficult terrain—provided system-spanning networks are formed among the individual constituents of the system. Without the networks, microscopic activity remains local and the macroscopic response disappears.

I quoted this and listed it as a reference in a discussion of quantum computing in my latest book: THE PHYSICS OF SUPERHEROES GOES HOLLYWOOD. One of the clearest explanations of what QC can and cannot do.

MOON: Satellite or Menace?

Does he need a science advisor? I may know a guy. 🤔 bsky.app/profile/chri...

Though to be fair, in the 1970's, people were very polite whenever you sneezed.

You rang?

Ahem. 🧐

This week's #WhatDoPhysicistsDo looks at civil engineer Janine Abyad who works for the Federal Aviation Administration New York Airports District Office.

I've never understood why the Invisible Woman is also able to generate force fields (from a physics pov - I know why from a story pov). But after a recent conversation with @asymptotia.bsky.social , the science advisor for the 2025 Fantastic Four: First Steps film, the penny dropped. 1/N

Multi-Observatory Views of M74 Image date: 29 August 2022, 06:00 New images of the Phantom Galaxy, M74, showcase the power of space observatories working together in multiple wavelengths. On the left, the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope’s view of the galaxy ranges from the older, redder stars t...

Thank you. Needed that.

Pangea - Love it or Leave it

And takes forever to tell.

If you're at the APS Global Physics Summit Thursday 3/19, from 12 - 3 PM is a special session on Physics for Everyone! Talks on the physics of sailing, food prep, baseball, space telescopes, and some rando talking about Superhero Movies. Should be a fun session. summit.aps.org/events/MAR-U12

MY GOD, IT'S FULL OF STARBUCKS!

evergreen

It brings me some solace to know that whatever's happening down here, there are still some absolutely incredible human-made and human-driven robots wandering around Mars, looking at cool rocks and dirt and sending us pictures just because we're curious about planets and our own origins in the cosmos

Exactly this, Tiffany! Superhero comic books are a Literature of Ethics. You gain super-speed or super-strength. Do you use these powers to help others or for personal benefit? We ALL have abilities and talents that we can use to help others or for our own benefit. What Would Wonder Woman Do?

Oh, so you have a system?

5 Stars, would hire again! I wanted a water pipe from my basement to my 2nd floor, and Quantum Plumbing did it without drilling through my ground floor.

Not to be too coarse, but it's for when your waves act like a particle

Clearly you've never taken Bronx Sleeping Pills, whose motto is: Take Dese and Doze

The correct answer is Super-Speed.

Now, if I wanted to start a REAL argument, I'd point out that...

Can confirm.

I've said it before and I'll say it again - I do not approve of this whole "passage of time" thing. No sir, I do not.

Want to help a great comics (and prose) writer with research? Also, she's a friend of mine!

Welp, so much for teaching interpretations of Quantum Mechanics.

Thank you. I have to print this out and post it for future reference.

Many, many years ago, a friend of mine posted signs around his college campus saying: "Springsteen tkts, on sale 8:00 AM Saturday." But he deliberately didn't say where. All over campus that Sat., at every venue that could possibly, possibly sell tkts, there were long lines of students!

Maneely was as fast as Jack Kirby in turning out a comic page, but with a very different style, and was one of Stan Lee's favorite artists. When my Multiversal Transporter-3000 is completed, I want to visit the Earth where Maneely and Lee created the Marvel Silver Age.

At the meeting of the Board of Regents at the MN college Wassamotta U youtu.be/1Igc5kXHNFE?...

So awesome! Plus his posture echos (inspired?) the animation of the Peanuts kids dancing!

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

A crafting store in Minnesota protests ICE by selling patterns they designed similar to red hats worn by Norwegians in the 40s to protest occupation by the Nazis. The proceeds go towards helping immigrants that can’t leave their home, already raising $650K. #ProudBlue youtube.com/shorts/SYET0...

Is this out in the Public Domain yet?

mom they’re roasting the US economy on mastodon again

I needed this to get me started for the week.

I just used that quote the other day,

The thing about Casablanca being the greatest film of all time is people don't believe you and then they watch it

Before I was reading comics, the Grantray-Lawrence shows were how I became a Marvelite. The animation was terrible - but since the story lines and dialog were lifted wholesale from Tales of Suspense, Tales to Astonish, and Journey into Mystery, I was spellbound and a fan was born! My origin story.

Golf clap

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.
