Alrght everybody, get your Tin Can Telephones out. We need your help! We reach new people by word of mouth. Send all your educator friends this pic! Teachers, librarians, scout troop leaders, etc! We offer our program for free, so we need help getting the word out without advertising $$.

A purple and red octopus talk to each other on the tin can telephone. Purple octopus says “want to connect your students with real Scientists?” Then red octopus says “Skype a scientist matches groups with scientists for virtual q&as. It’s free!” And then an orange flapjack octopus says “get a match at skypeascientist.com”

It’s that time again! Time for @skypeascientist.bsky.social’s 7th annual United States of Science Challenge! Each bubble on this map represents classrooms we marched w/scientists this year. $10 donations fill bubbles! The first region to fill in all of their bubbles wins! givebutter.com/USS2025

map of the United states titled "United States of Science 2025" with the skype a scientist logo and 2000 tiny empty circles spread out across the USA. States with low population numbers have fewer than where there are more people.

That's 2 circles for Texas! Cannot recommend Skype-a-Scientist highly enough! Such a valuable and inspiring experience for students...

Friends don’t let friends participate in AI “art” trends without giving them at least a little shit. If your friend had spinach in their teeth you’d tell them. This is the spinach-in-teeth of art. Also? AI art is BAD for the environment, in terms of energy use, water use, and other resources!!
