Holy fuck why are people freaking out about this.. Really disappointing to see the comments
Releasing: a dataset of two million Bluesky posts.
This dataset has been collected using Bluesky's API, and I hope it will be useful for all the researchers out there!

Too many people find physics scary, boring, confusing, and/or elitist. There's a better way to teach it and learn it. Physics can be filled with joy, and I'm saying this the day after my Statistical Mechanics test. 😂 Here is my secret: Physics is actually a word problem.

To understand physics, we need to tell – and hear – stories | Aeon Essays
Don’t be intimidated by physics: it is made of stories and metaphors. Learn these and the field will open up to you
