My favorite thing about physics is how it's always forcing me to rethink my assumptions about how reality works. Now @kpc.bsky.social has rounded up all the weirdest, most mind-blowing physics findings of the past year 🧪 Topics include the multiverse, quantum physics, causality, and time itself!

I've seen this before, but it never gets old. So clever.

This. 👇

This is so true for so many reasons. I really love this.

👀

Um, yes please? Release away!

Ah, so he's indiscriminate with his hatred and ignorance. Check.

Does Trump have to sneak away to have a moment without Elon? Does he say he has to go to the bathroom but really goes out the backdoor?

Men in the military will not be safe without women in the military. To suggest only men should be in combat roles means one has unfortunately gotten their head stuck up their ass. Someone call 911, they can't breathe.

The construction and agricultural industries would be destroyed. Hope those that voted for Trump enjoy paying 50% more for a house because of increased labor costs. The 50% is made up by me, but I fear I'm low-balling it.

I couldn't agree more. Unfortunately, though, people have forgotten how to talk to others and be open for discussion. I will get more hate in my inbox for this, too. Nothing written here is offensive or rude, but some people will hear it that way...without ever taking the time to talk.

"He likes to have his supporting cast. He's casting them right now, but people get fired really fast."

How are any of us better if a simple, respectful reply turns into the very hate everyone left X for? Someone posted something that a person said. I didn't agree with what they said, but the way they said it wasn't disrespectful, so I dared to ask why an immediate block by another? It's really sad.

Trump is going to need to go to Ikea and get a lot more display cases. He's running out of room for all of the balls he has collected. I mean, you have to display them properly, not just in a drawer or something.

I think there is some other things going on that no one seems to talk about. The SecDef oversees nearly a $1T budget with A LOT of defense contracts. The latest Secretary of Energy has oil interests. The head of the FCC wants to clear the way for a $900M SpaceX subsidy. Don't lose sight of the $.

@bunnibytz.bsky.social I don't know who you are, but you're already on my good side because that looks like a Cubs hat. Interested in reading more from someone that has good taste.

"We're not sure which side of the aisle the Nazis marching in the streets are coming from" something going around. Looking at you Dana Bash. Riiiight. You know, all of those liberal, freedom Nazis running around. So confusing, just can't be sure which side is driving hate. Guess we'll never know. 🤷‍♂️

Director Fede Álvarez was so excited by the success of Alien: Romulus that he began working on the next installment. Unfortunately, the concept art of the new xenomorph scared the shit out of the test audiences, so he is sticking with the less disgusting chest burster. I mean, just look at it. 🤢🤮👽

Shocker. I can't believe the Narcissist-in-Chief lied and didn't come through. If only people had warned them...🤦‍♂️

"Wherever it eventually falls, Trump’s margin of victory in the national popular vote will be one of the smallest in history. Since 1888, only two other presidents who won the Electoral College and the popular vote had smaller margins of victory:” Kennedy and Nixon www.nytimes.com/2024/11/17/u...

I really need some help. Since I'm back on social media again, I've been off since 2017, I thought I would turn to the great people here for that help. There's a word limit, so I'm trying to share via a JPEG. Not sure if this will work, but worth a try.

A gold watch with a heartfelt inscription gifted to the captain of a ship that rescued more than 700 passengers and crew from the Titanic has sold for a record-breaking sum.

Hmm, I seem to recall someone saying how if they were elected, they would end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours. Even as President Elect, all before taking the oath. It's been almost two weeks, so how's that going? Sometimes, I just feel like Trump might over commit, maybe it's just me.

People don't understand tax cuts. They sound enticing but help few and cost so much in the long run. Educating oneself on how the economy works should be a top priority. I firmly believe more time should be spent teaching economy policy and theory. Surely, billionaires are there for "us," right? 🤦‍♂️

I started working in banking back in 1994. Clearly, I am qualified enough to be Treasury Secretary. Now, all I have to do is appear on Fox News and head to Florida with my knee pads. Washington, here I come!

I think everyone is overreacting. Trump won't really do the things he says. He's not going to...oh, never mind.

Things I never thought I'd talk about with my wife. Costa Rica is nice. Oh wait, look at Belize. What are the taxes like in Uruguay?

Here response is fantastic!

New to this platform and have been off of social media since 2017. My wife suggested I get back online and that this is a good place to be. Looking forward to intelligent, respectful, and interesting conversations.
