Applying to high schools as we speak.

With weariness in my voice I asked her to please not, because I don’t want to clean that out of the solo stove, and she shot back with an impassioned speech about the ways men have always tried to hold back women pursuing great science. What have I wrought.

The passage reads: November 15: Einstein wrote back two days later, declining the invitation to attend Hilbert's lecture on account of fatigue and bad health. It is very likely, however, that the true reason was the desire to continue working intensively on his theory. Still, Einstein expressed great interest in the attempt to establish a bridge between gravitation and electromagnetism, a question about which he had himself-so he told Hilbert—also "often racked his brains." Einstein also asked for a copy of the proofs of the talk.

Albert Einstein used my signature move #OTD in 1915, when he pretended to be sick so he could skip a lecture by his colleague David Hilbert and stay home to work on his own theory. 🧪 ⚛️ 🎢

Choosing to find meaning in the serendipitous appearance of eels, let me also recommend "The Change" on BritBox.

I didn't wait for an answer, I just ordered one. I am just going to put my trust in Eel that it will arrive in time to confuse and then delight my 13yo for advent.

Y'all. Order an eel advent calendar.

Alright we're up to 36.5% of what we sold last year. Still much worse but this is an improvement over 6 days ago!

Advent starts in a little over 2 weeks. Bring a little Eel-iday cheer into your house. EelFacts.net

Oh wow! Is it too late to get one of these in time for advent (Chicago) if I order today?

Lolll

There will be some doozies

This is where I post from if you even care

The app icon is a little golden calf.

If you do not have both of these things, what are you doing.

Chicago has had to pay out over $300 million for police misconduct since 2019. There are so many things that could've been done with that money instead.

A scarecrow with flannel shirt, burlap bag head, jagged sewn mouth, glowing red eyes, and a flickering orange lantern stands below a Chicago flag mounted on the front of a house. The whole scene glows orange from Halloween lights.

So it works like this: you hang a Chicago flag above your haunted scarecrow.

Yes

Happy to circle back around to this later, if it helps.
