This administration has convinced half the country that the real problem isn’t billionaires who evade taxes and collect government handouts but the working class who pay taxes and get nothing in return.

I asked #AceInSTEM folks what they would like other people to know about being ace. One theme that came up is feeling isolated in STEM. One person said:

"When it comes to being ace in STEM, I feel like it's easy to not talk about it. So many of the scientists I've worked with don't 1/3

guys this reading slump is killing me…

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue is arriving home carrying a grocery bag, and Green comes up to greet him, visibly delighted. Blue: Hey, I wasn't sure if you still have coffee, so I got you some. Green: Oh! Thank you! I didn't need it, but you're so considerate! Blue sets down the grocery bag, looking at Green with a puzzled look on his face. Blue: All I did was get us groceries. Why do you need to thank me for the bare minimum? The puzzled frown disappears from Blue's face as Green answers matter-of-factly. Green: Because I'm grateful to have you.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are cuddled up in bed, with Green contently snuggling under Blue's chin, eyes closed. Blue is wide awake, mildly alarmed. Green: Every night when we go to bed, I keep count of your breathing. Blue: ...What? Green: You will usually fall asleep in 100 breaths. There's a pause in the conversation as Blue processes this information, and Green cuddles up closer to him, perfectly comfy and content. Blue breaks the silence, while Green is undisturbed. Blue: ...Well, now I can never unthink that. Green: You're welcome.

IF ADAM PICKED THE APPLE There would be a parade, a celebration, a holiday to commemorate the day he sought enlightenment. We would not speak of temptation by the devil, rather, we would laud Adam's curiosity, his desire for adventure and knowing. We would feast on apple-inspired fare: tortes, chutneys, pancakes, pies. There would be plays and songs reenacting his courage. But it was Eve who grew bored, weary of her captivity in Eden. And a woman's desire for freedom is rarely a cause for celebration.

This is a great poem by Danielle Coffyn.

Syd's review of A Dark and Drowning Tide 3/5: (Warning for what are probably vague spoilers in this review) I unfortunately find myself feeling quite underwhelmed by this book. I was fighting the urge to DNF by the roughly 60% mark, but aft...

sharing my review of a dark and drowning tide here too for fun i suppose, i’m interested in hearing other peoples’ thoughts in this book so much because it seems fairly divisive in how it’s received www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are walking outdoors. Blue looks up at the skies while Green spots something right ahead of them. Blue: Ah, what a lovely day. Green: Look! The foxes halt, studying a little crown assembled from autumn red maple leaves. Green: Someone has made a maple leaf crown! Green puts the crown on his head, as Blue watches with mild concern. Green: I haven't seen one of these in years! Blue: Please put it back, you can't wear it to the grocery store. Blue and Green carry on, and Green looks behind himself longingly. Green: Lo, the small beauties and cruelties of autumn. Blue: You can make your own crown once we get back home.

Fanart for "DanDaDan," a Japanese anime and manga series, depicting the two main protagonists. Momo Ayase takes up the bottom half of the image, resting a finger on her face with a green background and cow being abducted by a UFO behind her, while Okarun takes up the top half of the image adjusting his glasses, a red background behind him with Turbo Granny in her original form superimposed behind him. Both characters are cel-shaded with black. There are two doodles of Turbo Granny in her cat form either side of Okarun looking suspicious and relaxed. Framing the picture on the top left and bottom right are film reels with panels from the manga redrawn in each one.

Reading a book on desert gardening, and it’s fine, if basic, but I think it needed a better copyeditor.

hi gadget!!!!

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue is sitting on his computer, turning to look at Green, who is looking at a book laying open before him with delight. Green: Time for me to delve into a new book! Blue watches quietly as Green transforms into a cloud of abstract liquid energy, flowing into the opened book. Minding his own business, Blue turns back to his computer. Some time passes. Blue turns towards the book again, looking at Green, who peeks out of the book, looking somewhat disoriented. Blue: When were you coming out of there? It's 7 pm. Green: What year is it?
