Contrary to popular belief, shouting "I'm a scientist" doesn't make you right or a scientist. It is pretty funny though

Weird that none of these people can call the rallies by the actual name.

A few million NO KINGS signs should clear that up though

I'm probably not alone as an artist who's a bit burnt out and drained right now. But this. This right here keeps the fire going. Science like Doug's allows my art to exist. We all have to keep working and making and showing up so everybody gets to do what they want to do.

On Monday I braced for this most recent round of JPL layoffs by looking around my office for what I cared about most to take it home in case I never got to return. I grabbed just one thing - the beautiful bowl by @amyraehill.bsky.social inspired by the false color postcard I took with Curiosity.

A circular bowl decorated with a landscape scene. The inner surface of the bowl is painted to resemble a landscape with mountains. The top portion is a bright, clear blue sky transitioning into a warm yellow-gold sun. The lower portion depicts dark, rugged terrain. The bowl is sitting on a dark surface with a pattern of bright, colorful, geometric dots and lines.

Is that for real? I mean. She looks beautiful. But they do know that's she's a ghost, right? A phantom that carries away children. My mom used to threaten that La Llorona was going to come for me if I didn't stop crying. But sure! Let's let her watch over little Tiffany as she sleeps.

Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

Just heard scampering noises between floors and I'm thrilled and terrified. What will it be? Will it fall through the ceiling into my lap? Will we be best friends or will I get rabies?
