These two women impressed my little 5-year old brain when I learned about radioactivity.
#OTD in 1903, Marie Curie became the first woman to win a #Nobel Prize (#Physics).
AND
#OTD in 1935, her daughter Irene Joliot-Curie won the Nobel Prize in #Chemistry for the discovery of artificial radioactivity.
They're the only mother–daughter pair to have both won Nobel Prizes. #WomenInSTEM

You got me after ‘panettone.’
What’s your most controversial dessert opinion?
Options that make me feel skipping dessert:
Cannoli (actually most Italian pastries of that kind)
Tiramisu (sorry again, Italy)
Panettone (oh fuck IM SORRY)
British Christmas cake/pudding
Flan
Creme Brûlée
Pavlova or any kind of meringue

Are you also battling ‘pinch’s’ and ‘dash’s?’
This cookbook is going to take way longer than expected because the cooks wrote the recipes down as if you were right beside them and could tell what they meant for you to do. eg, My Aunt’s Butterscotch pie recipe that doesn’t say what temperature to bake at or for how long. Akkkk. #wip

I’m wondering if Felon Trump attacking female reporters is less about his obvious misogyny and more about female reporters being more courageous journalists than their male counterparts.

I’m pretty well-read. Educated. But I’m running out of language to describe the horrors and absolute depravity of this motherfucking guy. All of America’s worst impulses pumped up with lies and bile and left to rot on the doorstep of our once proud country like a prankster’s flaming shit bag.

If we had elected Kamala Harris we wouldn't sit here doom scrolling because the would be no doom to scroll.
Sure you'd be bitching about something else but at least we'd have vaccines, a chance at protecting women's rights, a decent economy, free and fair elections, I could go on...

Hell yes, another fantastic victory after Democratic candidate Eileen Higgins was elected Mayor of Miami flipping it from red to blue and becoming Miami’s first Democratic Mayor in 30 years. A hopeful sign for things to come.
