Feeling very blessed for all of the support over my career to reach this point, and be promoted with tenure @NavalAcademy

I could not have made it here without great mentors, colleagues, and most of all the wonderful midshipmen. #chemtwitter

@JeremyTate41 @Sachinettiyil 10,001 now! Not sure how I wasn’t following before lol

[Laszlo Kurti @kurtilaszlo]

Pleased to share our @J_A_C_S paper on de novo pyrrole synthesis using O-vinylhydroxylamines. These reagents are versatile annulation partners for rapid, regioselective access to electron-deficient and highly substituted pyrroles under mild conditions. https://t.co/GbO4UUJsEP

Something I never thought I’d see: @JohnKruk in a suit. Lookin good! @TMacPhils @Phillies

Being this far from a @Wawa would make me super uncomfortable

New record🥇

The Artemis II astronauts are now farther from Earth than humans have ever been! At 1:57 p.m. EDT, they broke the record set by Apollo 13 in 1970.

Their journey around the far side of the Moon today will take them a maximum distance of 252,752 miles from Earth.

@HuffPost had a choice: Google something/talk to a Catholic, or embarrass themselves publicly. They chose the latter, which I imagine is out of habit.

[Jennifer Bendery @jbendery]

NEW: The Pentagon today invited more than 3,500 employees to attend a Good Friday service at its in-house chapel.

Except it’s only for Protestants, not Catholics. https://t.co/kit55jmmJ1

The thing I love about Twitter is that I learned that the AG was fired by this absurd meme.

[Wes Farrell 🇺🇸👨‍🔬🚴‍♂️ @WesFarrell]

Hey @MLBFanSupport why can’t I watch the @Phillies ?! I’m not in market.

Some tweets are just designed to be ratio’d into oblivion

Is there anything worse than a crying baby on a plane?

I wish parents would control their children. It’s so disruptive. I refuse to believe a baby cries for 10 hours. At some point this is just bad parenting, right?

🚨 🚨 BRAKING 🚨 🚨

My apologies for the delay in posting this, but I have spent the last couple of hours sobbing openly, and at times uncontrollably, due to this news

The greatest American of our current era, former CIA Director and US Attorney General Robert Mueller, has past away

He is best known for his role in securing the conviction and impeachment of President Trump after Trump fired him as FBI director in 2017. The DOJ recently attempted to indict him in the fall, but failed because he has diplomatic immunity

He will be greatly missed

One of the worst things to come out of Covid was the idea that parents have unlimited PTO and kids’ educations are not all that important.

[David Zweig @davidzweig]

Pittsburgh Public Schools will be closed for three days, and compel "asynchronous" remote learning, because of the NFL Draft.

Since the city will have a lot of visitors this will "ensure students can continue learning safely and effectively."

Unreal.

Whenever the topic is something the media doesn’t like, journalists all become creative writing professors. The press has done everything possible to obfuscate the facts of this story—and it has done so deliberately.

Struggling artist marches on beer hall Bürgerbräukeller. But in less than a day, his life would be forever changed.

Incredible tweet

[Analytic Valley Girl Chris @ChrisExpTheNews]

I was using ChatGPT for legal advice and it decided to completely hallucinate some preposterous nonsense about how growing wheat to use on my own farm somehow constitutes interstate commerce

My money is on God winning this one, even if 2 on 1.

[Bari Weiss @bariweiss]

Ross Douthat and Stephen Pinker debate God for @TheFP, moderated by the brilliant @whignewtons.

Nowhere I’d rather be. Though I hear there’s some news?

[Wes Farrell 🇺🇸👨‍🔬🚴‍♂️ @WesFarrell]

Not watching the #sotu state of the union. Doing the American thing and waiting to hear what my carefully curated echo chamber online tells me what I think about it.

Possibly the best community note in history.

Back online after internet blackout. I grew up in Connecticut and have truly never seen an ice like this ever. The temperature is 30 degrees but the ice on our trees tops is not melting at all.
Never seen anything like this. Anybody else?

Having a toddler means keeping it together when she asks you to cut the crust off the heel of the loaf.

“New Yorkers Struggle with Middle Class Experience” is a hilarious headline

[New York Post @nypost]

Here’s how bad inflation is now — New Yorkers are rawdogging $4 baked potatoes at their Midtown desks and calling it lunch https://t.co/71W0ejt5rK
