NASA Chief Gives Serious Warning About 3I/ATLAS Collision with Earth
3i Atlas came from deep space, silent and unseen, slipping into our solar system on a path no one expected.

One of the best articles I have read from Paul #Krugman
It explains how #Trump not only has betrayed the world's trust, but also dismantled US #science. Other countries take over while he also threw America’s system of #alliances in tatters. The USA lost the power they had via strategic partnerships.
This week Trump starts his next fight with China, while within a year, America has become more vulnerable to a rupture than #China.
(PS: just ask US #farmers)

Did lead (#Pb) limit #brain and #language #development in #Neanderthals
and other extinct hominids?
Ancient human relatives were exposed to lead up to two million years ago, according to a new study. However, a #gene #mutation may have protected modern human brains, allowing language to flourish.

US scientists appear to be giving serious consideration to fleeing to other places as #science remains under serious threat there.
Astronomers sure do conjure up a lot of spooky images when they look out into deep space. A short Halloween thread:

Great white sharks are perhaps the most feared predators in the ocean. But what might they fear? Probably orcas. In the Gulf of California, the killer whales have been spotted hunting young great whites by flipping them over before eating their energy-filled liver. Blech. It’s wild out there. @CBSNews has the story:
Three Chinese astronauts who have been living on China's Tiangong space station since April 24 were set to return to Earth Wednesday when a piece of suspected “space junk” struck their return capsule — just hours ahead of departure. Looks like they’re going to be there for a while. Read more from @LiveScience:
1) Why do you love plants and how do you interact with plants in your life (intentionally/background)?
2) What makes learning about plants/ecology accessible/inaccessible to you (ie compare with birding)?
3) Do you prefer a formal or informal teaching environment, and why?
4) What are some subtopics relating to native plants that are of interest to you?
5) Would you prefer to learn to ID plants with or without phone apps?
6) How many plants would you be comfortable learning to ID in a 1 hour session?

Next time you catch yourself saying: 'Fuck. That was stupid. Why did I do that?'
--- rewrite it: ---
'Fuck. That was thoughtless. Why did I do that?'
Then it becomes a problem you can work on vs. a reprimand from a shitty boss.
Be kind to yourself.
