At least the hoodie is appropriate. Shout out to Society of Physics Students!
Very tired astronomer/educator wearing a dark blue hoodie that says "because ASTRONOMY."

I've got plenty more! Look for the green-ish curls. #aas247

Students/Early career folks especially, don't be shy!
Green-haired femme with name badge and the rainbow swoosh pin that totally doesn't look like a space agency logo we all know.

Another great reason to come to my poster this morning (104.04) is to pick up a cute, gay pin (while supplies last) with a swoosh that is totally not reminiscent of a logo we all know. #aas247
A cute pin, in inclusive pride flag colors, that totally doesn't look like a certain space agency logo

My students got a little slap-happy studying for multiple physics finals and left this on my office door 😂

To be fair to myself... Although I missed the spectacular May 2024 aurora AND last nights AND it's fully cloudy here tonight...

I DID get a glimpse of an event in October 2024...

...faint tinge to the naked eye but I got some pictures so I will share those and stop whining :-P
Green auroral glow with vertical pink streamers above the tree line with the Big Dipper - from Oct 2024 Bright pink aurora above treeline and clouds with the Big Dipper visible - from Oct 2024

I feel like this is speaking to me RIGHT NOW as a burnt out department chair prepping for my Astro101 class...

Title: We can either Teach Astronomy or do Corvee Work. Translation of text: To the king, our lord: your servants, the scribes of Kilizi. Good health to the king, our lord! May Nabu and Marduk bless the king! We watched the moon; on the 14th day the moon and sun saw each other. (This means) well-being. May Nabu and Marduk bless the king. Because of the ilku-duty and the corvee work we cannot keep the watch of the king, and the pupils do not learn the scribal craft.

Decided to delete old posts. But not before archiving them.

That was a weird time...
Screenshot of this account's first skeets from May 4, 2023: Hi, all. Don't know why it wouldn't take "noisy astronomer" (character limit?) but I promise, it's me. And it's also the last week of the semester so I'll be erratic for a bit! I feel like it's appropriate to start with a dog post. Here's Macey, sleeping on Luna (with a picture of a closeup of two dog faces, a brown one laying on top of a black one) A few minutes in... discovering this place to be fucking weird in a good way, definitely vibes of early twitter. Hello fellow weirdos!
