Again, a moment to pause & appreciate the cool professionalism of those in & around the Key Bridge at 1:24 am Tuesday.

Ship’s pilot radios in that ship has lost steerage & will hit bridge.

Someone (maritime control?) transmits urgent alert to Maryland/Balt police dispatch…

I guess, if it's "radical" to dredge up discredited 30-year-old ideas and ignore the mountains of evidence that they are wrong.

Credulously spreading bad science doesn't make the world a better place.

[Ron Buck @ronbuck]

@seanmcarroll Didn’t really doubt it ;)

[Sean Carroll @seanmcarroll]

There's this thing where I state quite clearly, right here on Twitter, that some proposition X is incorrect, and yet people out there in the world continue to claim X anyway. Baffling.

@seanmcarroll A maze of twisty passages :)

Fascinating story about how one fellow pointed at a bottleneck in our supply chain jam at the ports... a head-slapper that got solved within 8 hours once the brilliantly simple solution was pointed out ...AND THE RIGHT PEOPLE LISTENED.

In this case, the relationship between time reversal, reversibility, and CPT. Nobody ever explains this correctly! Happily, the book I’m writing will. :)

Investigations into an insurrection shouldn’t require bipartisan support from the side that incited the insurrection.

[Sean Carroll @seanmcarroll]

In the wake of terrorists storming the US Capitol on 1/6, Republicans have responded by doubling down on the big lie of a stolen election, and the background conviction that any election they lose is illegitimate. This is the party leadership, not a fringe group.

[Ron Buck @ronbuck]

@DavidBrin Yes to all three :)
