Me when someone calls someone else fat: “Cut it out, that’s disrespectful and small.” Me when my cat asks for her regular meal: “Well well well if it isn’t little miss Chonky McChonkerson here to fill her little pig mouth again”
How’s everyone feeling about being a Space Fan this week #wellnesscheck
Welp, if you were one of the many listeners who helped fund our WeMartians travel grant back in 2019 and send Áine to LPSC, you’ve now officially been personally affected by the DEI executive order nonsense. An extraordinary level of petty.
lovely to learn that my abstract from #LPSC 2019 on the diversity of the UK’s student space community has been removed 🙃 Grateful UKSEDS has a copy of the poster still at least ukseds.org/wp-content/u...
Host your own content, folks. And support independent, community-governed, and open source platforms at the same time. Hit me up if you want advice or help on building your own digital space online that zero billionaires can touch.
The TikTok ban, the Musk Twitter takeover, the Facebook moderation policy changes, the Republicans’ rapidly intensifying crackdowns on speech... let these be the proof you needed to move anything you care about online to a space you control. Digital sovereignty is more important than ever.
When you last visited Mexico, you may have sampled at least one Corona. Locals, however, know the best way to experience this culture is by having Three Coronas.

Gonna take a hiatus from the internet, just found out Dinosaurs is on Disney Plus
Facebook, showing me the worst low-effort garbage algo content ever: "Did you like this content or do you want to see less of it?" Me: *clicks "see less of it"* Facebook: "Ok, we'll show you less of this content...for a while." WTF
You ever have a loaf of bread so good it’s a religious experience?

If you were like me, a Star Wars fan that never got in to the animated series because you don’t watch cartoons, this PSA is for you. You’re missing out on fantastic stories, incredible characters, and a deep backstory to enrich your experiences with Andor, the Mandalorian and Ashoka.
PSA: Be weary of content #scraper accounts on this platform. They are popping up in large numbers and share stolen images (i.e. without credit or permission), often for their own monetary gain and without any valuable context. 🔭 (1/6)
Is there anything more soothing to a busy mind than pressure washing the patio?
