@izqomar Be the change, Omar

[Margaret Lazarus Dean @mlazarusdean]

During covid times I hosted zoom gatherings for people who were having trouble getting writing done. I’m thinking about firing up a new one for June—DM me if you are having trouble getting writing (of any kind) done and are interested in changing that!

@amikokauderer @SciGuySpace @StationCDRKelly lol definitely the same vibes

I’m at a Bikini Kill show and have been keeping it together but someone just walked by wearing Drakkar Noir and it’s actually too much, temporally speaking. I have traveled through a wormhole. It’s 1991 help

@StationCDRKelly Lol

@mookieproof It's true we've been sending rockets into space for 60 years, but a new rocket is a new rocket. When something goes wrong on a test flight, even something small, it's spectacular. Part of the fun of spaceflight, right? 🚀

Stop asking writers if they’re going to strike and start asking studios why they won’t pay writers what they’re worth.

[Margaret Lazarus Dean @mlazarusdean]

Maybe more conservatives would choose to be professors if it paid better. Y'all can't spend a generation eroding tenure and turning academia into underpaid feminized work and then expect actual conservatives to show up in equal numbers. Like, you gotta pick one

In many ways, the crew of STS-51L represented a cross section of the American population, and each crew member had a unique story.

We share their stories in "Remembering the Challenger Seven": https://t.co/89Cj8HXdR7

[Margaret Lazarus Dean @mlazarusdean]

For the 35th anniversary of the space shuttle Challenger's last mission, I'm going to share 35 Challenger facts you might not know.

#1: You probably didn't watch it live.

None of the major networks carried the launch, so only those with special access saw a live broadcast.

CUIRASS, 5th grade, and I think of it every time I've seen the word in nature since (so, approximately three times)

[Anthony Dominic @alloveranthony]

Everyone remembers the word that got them kicked out of the elementary spelling bee, right?

Mine was yacht.

Last week Scott Kelly was visiting injured children in Kyiv while Elon Musk was censoring people who criticize him on the website he bought because he loves free speech

[Scott Kelly @StationCDRKelly]

.@elonmusk Elon, please don’t mock and promote hate toward already marginalized and at-risk-of-violence members of the #LGBTQ+ community. They are real people with real feelings. Furthermore, Dr Fauci is a dedicated public servant whose sole motivation was saving lives.

@amikokauderer here comes a little bit of this for your Monday

@izqomar Florida skies can go so hard with one single ass cloud

[Scott Kelly @StationCDRKelly]

Fifth most inspiring trip I’ve ever had, but only because I’ve flown in space four times.
