Can’t believe we took this in 1968!

[Jason Major @JPMajor]

This is a photo of Earth taken by one of the Apollo 8 astronauts on their way to the Moon on December 22, 1968. It was the first time humans had ever ventured past low-Earth orbit, and so was the first time anyone had ever observed our planet from such a distance.

@praveenius @justjots ‘Abominable’, ‘prosy’ and ‘odious’. And if phrases count ‘More hair than wit’, ‘bacon-brained’ and ‘Cheltenham tragedies’. GH is always good for a chuckle. ⚡️

Solarpunk ✨⚡️

[Eric Jorgenson 📚 ☀️ @EricJorgenson]

Today I learned: Solarpunk is a thing.

A genre of optimistic futurism inspired by renewable energy, community, and technology. I'm into it.

@simakumar Now that you mention it, it does Sima! I’ve had something similar when I was a kid - jaw breakers. Definitely tired out your jaw with all the chewing.

A handy guide to avoid confusing the dashes—also, you’re either an em dash person or you’re not.

[Anne-Laure Le Cunff @neuranne]

TIL I've been using hyphens and dashes all wrong, so I made a little memo card

In action:

The Dunning–Kruger effect—a common cognitive bias—shows how meta-ignorance arises because lack of knowledge often hides in the realm of the “unknown unknowns”

Lol, so accurate.

Understanding that value does not equate to monetary worth, while having a healthy relationship with money and knowing how to make it to live. Still WIP.

[Orange Book 🍊📖 @orangebook]

What is one truth you learned later in life you wish everybody understood?

Ex:
- to get help, help
- worrying is a waste of life
- books can't replace experience
- your parents are as fragile as you
- food impacts mental health, a lot
- reality doesn't care about how you feel
