Seriously, the date on my terminal degree is over 10 years past. Said degree is literally collecting dust on my wall. I've earned the right to not loose sleep over that bullshit anymore.

Just lost 1.5+ hours of sleep because my subconscious was worried about an upcoming exam for a class I forgot to attend all semester. Man, fvck that recurring dream.

Having grown up in the Midwest but never being able to remember the difference between a "watch" vs a "warning", I am *so very happy* to finally have a way to figure it out now.

The sound accompanying the Junkers Ju 87 (aka the Stuka dive bomber) as it dove to target was produced by the Jericho trumpet during WWII and by my 401k in 2025.

One of the nice things about driving an electric car is not needing to listen to gas station ads in the freezing cold.

As an astronomer, there are two tropes that I see consistently in media:
1) smart people have telescopes in their living rooms
2) set designers do not know how to correctly assemble telescopes (this happens A LOT)

Primary mirror of the telescope, currently uncovered.
Various components of the observatory being worked on simultaneously, in preparation for integration with each other.
The Roman Space Telescope, currently under construction at NASA's Goddard Spaceflight Center. This is in the SSDIF (asd.gsfc.nasa.gov/archive/sm3a...) in Building 29, which is the largest high-bay clean room in the world.

If you think about it, the most amazing room on the Starship Enterprise isn't main engineering, sick bay, the transporter, or holodeck - it's the Ready Room. 3-5 minute meetings that id a problem, brainstorm solutions, and end with clear action items for all parties? Nothing short of miraculous.
