■ A Love Poem Written on a Notebook #poem #poetry #lovequotes
"Pause for a moment of slumber, O mischief-stirring love,
And behold, with you, the entire cosmos falls into sleep.
Shedding tears, it bids farewell to the field of existence,
The sun, the moon, the stars, and all creation."
(Hâmid)

One of my big surprises of 2024 was that we are actually making a lot of progress (albeit messy and with a great deal of argument) in the science of the origin of life on Earth.
If you’re under 40, we’ll probably have a pretty good understanding of it in your lifetime.

Mineral Moon 🌙
Subtle colors in the Moon’s surface are due to concentrations of different minerals in the lunar regolith. Reddish brown areas are higher in iron, blue areas are higher in titanium. The colors can be brought out in photos. 🐡🔭

Yeah, no. What we have right now is glorified autocorrect. Glorified autocorrect that takes the energy of an entire city to do what it does, plus half of Lake Erie to cool down while it's doing it.
