Raised on a farm, moved to the big city, and still don't know what I want to be when I grow up... Sometimes I do geoscience. Sometimes I edit. Sometimes I nap.

[Jordan Phillips @GeophysGinger]

Hi, I’m Jordan from Edmonton, AB and today I’ll be discussing geodes for the @GlobalScienceShow! Follow along with the whole show using @GlobalSciShow, and check out The Radical AI Podcast @radicalaipod who is up next.

Fun fact: #Santa knows that the strength of gravity around any object increases as more mass is added. It may be surprising, but out of all the forces that hold our Universe together, gravity is the weakest!

With a black hole in his belly and a twinkle in his eye, if #Santa could travel at the speed of light, you wouldn’t see him go by!

If #Santa eats too many cookies at a time, it would be hard for him to move fast without committing a physics crime!

Santa increases his mass with every cookie he eats. He must have a black hole in his belly to fit all those treats...

Time for the holiday season! Since it takes so many cookies to stop time, Santa has started stocking up! If you missed last year's story:

@one_rainydae @bunsenbernerbmd Certainly makes them easier to control when they're misbehaving haha! And very snuggle-sized😊

[Jordan Phillips @GeophysGinger]

Shoutout to @lizardschwartz and this thread for saving my pup from the Awful Options of A) having sap on his paws for days or B) enduring Bath Time 😂
Instead, he got 2 minutes of paw massage with coconut oil, then ate the remainder when I was done with it! 🎉

[Amy W Schwartz @lizardschwartz]

My first Mysteriously Sticky bat. Time to get the vegetable oil out...

[Dr. Roshan Achal @TheSmilentist]

Great idea for a story. It's still a question that gets asked a lot!

[The First Wayfaring Stranger @ArnicaxRoss]

Hi. I've been worried about you overheating so here I am with bossy bossy tips.

Blackout your windows. All of them. If you got aluminum foil put it shiny side out and then something like cardboard behind that and then a blanket or towels over that. You want it DARK in your place

[Samantha Yammine, PhD @heysciencesam]

If you're anything like me your medical anxiety may be causing you to be HYPER aware of every sensation in your body right now 🥴

So I made this handy chart based on info from @COVIDSciOntario & expert input from @MPaiMD @ASPphysician to help you know what's normal & what isn't.

Making rainbows with hair, science shows up everywhere!

Flashes of colour were catching my eye while walking in the sun yesterday.

It turns out that my hair was acting like a diffraction grating!

[Jordan Phillips @GeophysGinger]

@GuyWhittall Awesome! Glad you like it!

[Jordan Phillips @GeophysGinger]

In Nov 2020 I attended the @ComSciConCanW workshop where I learned a whole bunch about #scicomm and #infographics from the amazing presenters and organizers. With help from @yuliakrolik I polished my write-a-thon piece into a flashy cheat sheet to help you write your best!

[Jordan Phillips @GeophysGinger]

Also quick shoutout to @TheSmilentist for being a second set of eyes on the new version before I was ready to show it to the world!

[Jordan Phillips @GeophysGinger]

If you'd like to download a pdf copy of the cheat sheet to keep near you while you write, you can find that on my website: https://t.co/cIbDRaz0Jn
(the Blog page also talks about each tip in more detail for the curious among you!)
