Never clicked on a ‘continue this thread’ faster.
Prompted by this and a need for distraction I Did Some Math. Turns out most extrasolar planets are quite cauliflower-compatible. A thread, with citations. And laboratory astrophysics. And footnotes.

happy lesbian visibility week I work with geologists and here are some things people have said during meetings where I have to keep a straight face

- "these dykes haven't been dated but we know their orientation"
- "I didn't realize this dyke penetrated so deeply"

Earlier this year, I got to write a big feature for @sciencenews.bsky.social about wastewater surveillance -- covering how this field has exploded during the pandemic, and how scientists are now looking to monitor other health threats. The story is now up online:
Why sewage may hold the key to tracking diseases far beyond COVID-19
COVID-19, mpox and many other pathogens are detectable in wastewater, but public health officials are still figuring out how best to use those data.
