Basically, a writer, but also much more: an astrophysicist, a comic book lover, a cat lady :P, a very curious person :).

Big news ahead! I will attend Targi Fantastyki in Warsaw! I will be there on Saturday the 26th and in Sunday. Hope to see you there!!
I like very much traveling, and I love German-speaking countries, but the idea that tonight I will finally sleep in my bed moves me to tears 🥲.

The odds of an impact from the asteroid 2024 YR4 just went up a teeny bit. That's expected, but the good news is we're getting JWST observations of it in a few weeks! That'll help nail down its size and maybe help with an impact prediction.

The odds of an impact recently topped 2%, but we may learn more soon

Sad to report I just lost my job at nuclear, after 40 years of faithful service overseeing the US nuclear arsenal. My job was keeping all the nukes from exploding by pressing the don't explode button every 48 hours.

Yesterday we went to a Destroy Boys gig here in Munich. The place was amazing, the support act - Girlband! - fantastic, and the people, oh, the people… I felt like I finally belong, among punks, goths, antifascist, queers people. This is my people, the place where you will always find me.

The most tragic thing with humankind is that in the end we are nothing, but we behave like we are everything.

Grazie mille agli insegnanti e ai bambini della Scuola Elementare Rosa Di Feo, che non solo mi hanno fatto un sacco di belle domande, ma pure un regalo e, mentre parlavo, mi hanno ritratta :).

My last DIYproject: Ginzan Onsen by Anavrin. A bit frustrating to assemble but really beautiful when completed.

Ho fatto un altro video sull’asteroide 2024 YR4, in cui spiego perché è normale e non necessariamente preoccupante che la probabilità di impatto possa aumentare :).

La nomina di Robert F. Kennedy Jr. segna una nuova era di anti-intellettualismo nella politica americana
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. incarna un anti-intellettualismo che va a braccetto con un trasversale populismo anti-élite, e prende di mira esperti e membri della comunità scientifica.
