Just talked with a person in her late 50s about #ClimateChange. Apparently, in her school days, she was ‘taught’ sea level rise would drown Kölner Dom in the 2000s—installed fear. Now Köln Dom is intact, she no longer believes in CC.
Personality & inclination aside, isn’t this #SciComm gone bad?

Supporting the Netherlands in #CWC23!
Only 10-team world cup is a shame, ICC! What is stopping ICC from including more Associate nations?

Bear with me.
- We use ~ <1% of our brain; Einstein may have used more.
- Our brain *completely shuts off* during sleep & under anaesthesia.
- Newtonian physics can’t explain a thing about the brain, we use Q physics.
- Plants are conscious beings

Attended a conference recently.
The response that academics give when I say I’m not affiliated with any university was…well…not great.
Is it so surprising to see someone outside of the university system in a conference? 🦉 Perhaps, depends on the community?

The first post here 🟦

I’ll write occasionally about science and sports and some socio-political issues — global and national 🇳🇵
Some ranting too ;)
