Imagine in 2025, after all the times Black women warned literally everyone about everything that’s happening right now, announcing that Black women commentators are just very paranoid When we have been right???????? This whole time????? About pretty much everything????????????!

I want our young people to know that there is a path forward, that a better world is possible. I don't want them to give up, to become cynical. They deserve to be young and full of optimism. They are owed a world that supports and sustains optimism.

Ezra Klein shut the fuck up challenge

The fact that the French establishment is targeting children with stun grenades 🤬

Really proud that my friend Naoko Kurahashi Neilson has played such a pivotal role in IceCube science, including leading the way on mapping the Milky Way through neutrino eyes! She's stellar! Leaders like Naoko helped make today's Nobel a possibility. 🧪⚛️🔭

Please enjoy this extremely entertaining slideshow about neutrino physics by Joachim Kopp, which presents problems in neutrino physics as a series of thriller novels! agenda.infn.it/event/28874/... 💙📚🧪⚛️🔭

I’m just saying “trans particles win Nobel Prize” would be a fair headline

Just want to point out that I was literally in the newspaper yesterday saying one of the most important questions of our time is why neutrinos are non-trinary 👀

Every Black woman I have spoken to about Digger and who has seen it is a fan, myself included. It’s also the case that the closest thing the film has to a hero is a Black woman. Anyway small number statistics but still, interesting to me.

The best monologue in Digger is about this:
