@BangBangClick Holy shit is that Julian McMahon??

[Patrick Redding - BlackLivesMatter @Holesinteeth]

@Comichistorians @bckomix I feel like there’s some Steranko in the posing and chiaroscuro too!

[Patrick Redding - BlackLivesMatter @Holesinteeth]

That’s… exactly what he would do. Holy shit.

@GreatDismal As obvious as it was for the Canadian $2 coin to be nicknamed the Toonie, I'm still really sad that 'Doubloonie' didn't catch on.

So I just learned this second about the only known naturally-occurring fission reactor... that formed 1.7 billion years ago and ran non-stop for hundreds of thousands of years. Holy crap. Thanks, @catvalente!

[Catherynne M. Valente @catvalente]

OMG I want to tell you about the coolest thing I've learned about in a hot minute! (Maybe everyone already knows about this, but it's new to me AND I LIKE LEARNING STUFF LET'S GO ON A JOURNEY OF EXPLOSIVE DISCOVERY TOGETHER)

SO. Under the precise right (or very wrong) conditions, natural deposits of uranium can develop spontaneous nuclear fission chain reactions identical to the kind we make on purpose in modern nuclear reactors.

*This has already happened at least once.* About 1.7 billion years ago in Oklo, Gabon.

@theshadfather87 @vgfytschool Nice to know there’s folks who are still enjoying it AND players finding it for the first time. Time will tell… :)

Saddened to hear about about the death of comic art virtuoso @JohnCassaday, one of those artists who elevated every book he worked on. I invested in the giant absolute format editions of Planetary because his art demands to be poured over. RIP.

I’d have gone with early 2000s Elmore Leonard adaptation but it’s easy to pile on in hindsight, so: Tweet Of The Day.

[Rob Fox III @RobFoxThree]

Mahomes and Kelce look like the dipshit henchmen in a Jason Statham movie.

@ToughSf Evokes the Singleship from @UnlikelyWorlds Quiet War (especially with the rings setting!)

[Patrick Redding - BlackLivesMatter @Holesinteeth]

Let's be honest; on some level it would totally destroy whatever cred our generation has left if one of us actually got into the White House. I'm happy for Harris to rep the Boomers and hopefully the president after her will have grown up on Magic School Bus and Pokemon cards.

[Patrick Redding - BlackLivesMatter @Holesinteeth]

I’m sure someone can introduce him to Aaron Rodgers

[HIDEO_KOJIMA @HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN]

I want to see a flying saucer like from “NOPE” or “V” or “Independence Day.”

@MarisaDoom @mcneil_ste8555 @AreaMan20410331 BliyatGPT is getting overtaxed right now, poor thing.

I kinda want to know the story of the priestess with one gold eye

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

This is a 4,800-year-old prosthetic eye made from tar and animal fat.

It was discovered in Shahr-e Sukhteh, close to Zabol, Iran and it's the world's earliest known prosthetic eye.

It was was once painted with gold and was likely worn by an ancient priestess.

[Patrick Redding - BlackLivesMatter @Holesinteeth]

This, but on Enceladus.

[Black 🏳️‍⚧️ Site @UnseenOps]

The McMurdo Observation Tube is the most terrifying scientific platform I could imagine, a steel tube with windows punched through the Antarctic sea ice, large enough for a single person, the only light comes through the cleared snow and it's 1500ft to the seabed below.

[Patrick Redding - BlackLivesMatter @Holesinteeth]

I say this with nothing but respect and genuine excitement: This feels like what happens when you mix your Playmobil sets. Can't wait.

[Patrick Redding - BlackLivesMatter @Holesinteeth]

@leighalexander Absolutely THANK YOU

[Patrick Redding - BlackLivesMatter @Holesinteeth]

@theshadfather87 Thinking of you both my friend!
