“If we continue to accumulate only power and not wisdom, we will surely destroy ourselves... If we become even slightly more violent, shortsighted, ignorant, and selfish than we are now, almost certainly we will have no future.”
— Carl Sagan

A vibrant, composite portrait of the brilliant Iranian mathematician Maryam Mirzakhani (1977–2017), the first woman and first Iranian to win the Fields Medal. She is shown in a close-up head-and-shoulders view, facing the camera with a gentle, thoughtful expression—short brown hair, bright blue eyes, and a calm smile. She wears a navy blue fleece over a teal/green collared shirt. Overlaid transparently behind and around her is a dense blackboard filled with intricate handwritten mathematical equations in white chalk, featuring complex expressions involving binomial coefficients (e.g., n! / (k!(n-k)!)), factorials, summations, powers, and terms suggestive of hypergeometric series or combinatorial identities. The equations partially surround and frame her face, symbolizing her deep immersion in advanced mathematics, particularly in hyperbolic geometry, Teichmüller theory, and dynamical systems, while evoking the creative, exploratory nature of her work as a Stanford professor and groundbreaking researcher.
Remembering Dr. Maryam Mirzakhani on #WorldCancerDay.
Dr. Mirzakhani was first woman to win the Fields Medal, the most prestigious award in #mathematics. She died in 2017 from #breastcancer at the age of 40.

Pinned lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · Aug 19, 2021 Almost three years ago, my editor called me early one November morning. A wildfire had sparked near a town called Paradise, he said. Could I go? (1/13) 0:02 / 0:10 lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · 47m I was just laid off by The Washington Post in the middle of a warzone. I have no words. I'm devastated. Quote lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · Jan 25 Waking up without power, heat, or running water. (Again.) But the work here in Kyiv continues. Warming up in the car, writing in pencil — pen ink freezes — by headlamp.
A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world
@sammyroth.bsky.social reporting that the Post cuts include 14 climate journalists:

Mass deportations don’t protect working people—they weaken labor standards, silence organizing and empower bad employers.
An attack on immigrant workers is an attack on ALL workers. @jimmy-iupat.bsky.social

This week, Professor James Hansen and colleagues published projections that the global temperature record could reach +1.7°C by 2027.
And if that number lands in your gut the way it landed in mine, good. It should.
