Totally down with #STEM Ed, #scicomm, pop culturexSTEM, #storytelling, comics and all the nerd stuff. Now is when we become heroes.

This isn’t a “mea culpa” - this is an old man not admitting he was guessing, replacing his wishes for reality. Now all he’s left with is “LISTEN TO ME! I WAS SOMEONE ONCE!” Jesus.

Always worth remembering - Musk did not invent anything at or start Tesla. He sued to be named founder after he ran the funding (and later booted the real founders). This is not hidden information.
He also bought the title of “chief engineer” when he bought Space X.

Republican Governor Larry Hogan posted video of the constellation Orion and claimed the stars were “large drones” above his home.
Just a reminder that Republicans want to shut down the Department of Education.

New paper out in @ScienceMagazine! In 8 studies (multiple platforms, methods, time periods) we find: misinformation evokes more outrage than trustworthy news, when it does it's shared more + ppl are less likely to read before sharing. w/ @killianmcl1 @Klonick @mollycrockett 🧵👇

Was on a STEM & Star Trek panel once in ‘22 and one of the guests said “ #StarTrek is the future we want #TheExpanse is the future we deserve.”
I don’t think there’s been a one-month period where I haven’t thought about that since.
