There are many media reports about "bad" microbes being "everywhere." They are also crafty. Here is a swab from our deionized water spigot onto R2A medium. The only source of nutrition for the microbes would be whatever survives deionization, dust, or splashback collecting water for media making.

Whenever I see "Kid Rock" trending, I want to share that Robert James Ritchie was raised on a 6 acre estate with tennis courts, private stables, two garages holding 5 cars, a jacuzzi, apple orchard and 5,600 sq ft home.

"Trailer park" is a persona, a character he plays.

The Pitt got greenlit for a season 3, out next February, and the announcement has very funny comment from HBO chairman Casey Bloys that’s like “yeah, turns out if you just make a TV show like how we used to make TV shows you can have a 15+ episode season every year 🤷‍♂️”

I went to check on the babies, who are spending their first day in their outdoor digs. Was hoping they would find the dogloo when they got sleepy, and folks?

I AM FURIOUS.

Adobe Animate remains an industry standard for TV animation. Star Trek: Lower Decks was made in Animate. Haunted Hotel was made in Animate. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic was made in Animate.

And because you can't buy a permanent licence anymore, it'll just be gone.

For >10 years I’ve been on an admissions committee for a prominent science journalism fellowship.

We always have around 150 applications from around the world to review for 6 spots.

This year we only had 32 applications. And several we can’t review because they’re visa restricted now.

Don't say I never take one for the team. I washed my car today to coax some snow (or even rain) from our unusually quiet Montana winter sky. Those reflected clouds aren't gonna do it, though. I'll work on it...

Hey everyone!

Huge news! Our trans girl scout list has sold a total of 146,000 boxes as of today!

But MANY trans girl scouts only have 20, 30, 40 boxes sold.

I just resorted our list to put those on the top.

Go get your girl scout cookies and make a trans kid's day!
