Jag är inte helt säker på varför, men det hela får mig att tänka på det här:
–Not exactly the glowing mushrooms you predicted.
–Fascinating! They look like explorers, just like us!
–It's rather rude talking about others as if they weren't there.
–Are you suggesting we try to communicate?
–Either that, or we just politely nod and move along.

Soo… that was fun!
I was randomly put to lead a group of strangers through the haunted house and there was a lot of screaming. Not from me (or _because_ of me) though. I thank good perception and years of paranoid gaming for that. 😜👻🎃

And now I have a photo of the entire, awesome and wonderful Onsala Day and Night of Astronomy team! That day will be one of my fondest memories of this year! 🚀🔭📡✨

And this is (one of the many reasons) why I don't like AI. Tried to get some simple support and... well, the green boxes are my comments.

–Captain, the more we talk about it, the less it seems like an accident.
–Oh come on! Don't tell me you've never wondered what the big red button is for. Look at it as a... a scientific experiment! Yeah!
–You could have just read the bloody manual!

Today we got our revenge on the storm that forced us to cancel the Day & Night of #Astronomy and #100HoursofAstronomy at Onsala Space Observatory. This is inflatable planetarium where I held 7 presentations today and look - they made a roll-up banner of my artwork! 👩🚀🌍✨

Back from the SF-convention LunCon where I hung out with old friends and acquaintances, made some new ones, participated in a panel about alien life and - as tradition nowadays is - bought a bunch of the talented @markadesign.bsky.social’s wonderful stickers! 🚀

–Who'd have thought that we'd be able to use this old equipment to get messages directly relayed to us in the field! Anything new?
-Just an invitation from the Kepler station...to a Monty Python's Holy Grail themed party. Ehm..
–Let's not go there. It's a silly place.

-Here we go again...
-I thought you'd want to see a dinosaur fight.
-That thing behind me sure as hell isn't a dinosaur!
-If you shoot it I want to study the carcass!
-No one's shooting anything. We're leaving. Quietly.
-But I want to watch!
-What are you, 5 years old? Now move it!

-Mate, you have a little something on your...
-Sod off!
-See, Mr. Cadwell, Andrusha is a very clever octopus, distracting Mr. Aldrich while putting crab into the pot.
-Yeh well, it looks like he's at risk of ending up in that pot himself, doc. Why's he so fascinated by our food anyway?

– Fascinating!
– What is that thing anyway, some sort of water badger crocodile?
– I know you are being silly on purpose. It looks like a large amphibian.
– Great, now take your photos, pick your plants, I’m not going to miss the syzygy because of our pal down there!

Went out to pick blueberries and did not expect to find lingonberries as well. Never happened before but the fact that it’s still only August, I’ll expect September to bring lots of red goodies. Oh, don’t worry - this is only a small part of what I ended up picking. 🫐

–Captain, I am geneticist, not physician but no, you do not have malaria. Your condition is likely mental and I am afraid there is no cure. And since when is my lab common room? Get smoking robot out of here and tell Mr. Aldrich to stop yelling at Andrusha.

Finally received the missing pieces of my Eagle lunar lander and was thus at last able to finish the work! Spare for the nuisance of said missing pieces, I really loved building this one. 🚀👨🚀 🌔
