Your annual reminder that modern physics is done in diverse teams of anything between 1 and 1000 people, by people of all backgrounds imaginable.

Breakthroughs are not made single-handedly by at most 3 white men. Arguably they never were.

- LW $55.38
- PW $10.17
- MW $15.50 a table of the base minimum annually expenses for people without children and up to 3 kids. it includes food, housing, internet, health care, etc.

1 Child -  $95,156
2 Children - $117,239
3 Children - $145,871

Washington Post dismantled the platform Jamal wrote on. Discarded the fellowship they created in his memory.

They fired me unjustly for speaking the truth.

But I’ll never stop talking about my friend, writer, and amazing human, Jamal Khashoggi.

RIP, Jamal.

Ah, Bluesky, my sweet summer child.

You're going to enforce your "rules against harassment and toxic content". And then you'll discover that it's the same set of people doing the toxic shit. And those toxic people are connected to really powerful people from a specific political party.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

It costs a lot less to house people.
