Daily DBZ 164. Trunks flashes back to his original timeline in a world destroyed by the Artificial Humans. His younger self and an older hardened Gohan stand against Androids 17 and 18, but are defeated. Now that he’s achieved such power, there’s no way he’ll let Cell destroy this timeline's world.

I got the idea for this illustration on a sunny day a while ago after seeing a beetle in the park struggle to get across the hot tarmac path, just a silly visual to explore the question of how much we should be mindful of the wildlife we share a habitat with - they live here too!

Saddened for all the students applying to the NSF GRFP who feel they can’t bring their full selves to their personal statements this year.
Science is better with you in it. I hope you get the funding and keep doing excellent work.

Breaking news: The Supreme Court has declined to consider a challenge to its landmark 2015 ruling that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide.
The challenge came from a county clerk who stopped issuing marriage licenses shortly after the ruling.
