The story of my life has been told by an unreliable narrator.

I bet you’ve heard of Galileo & Hubble, but what about Henrietta Swan Leavitt?

Leavitt changed astronomy. She figured out new ways to measure a star’s distance from Earth & her work helped determine the universe is expanding.

Her boss, Edward Pickering, published her findings UNDER HIS NAME. Later, Shapley used her findings to determine distances around the Milky Way w/o credit.

Leavitt’s work is still used today. Next time you hear about famous men in #science share her story. #HistoryRemix

I need to find a new server for this - my main generic account.

I'd just want a regular nice comfy English-speaking place without Nazis and porn. Is that too much too ask?

Any suggestions? As an added bonus, I tip my servers.

Okay, um, remember how I said #debirdify didn't have issues with load? I might have to eat my words. 😅

Someone who is good with the economy help me budget this, my vServer is dying!

Seriously though, I could have sworn that whenever I'd previously checked it it was like 2% CPU load.

One action photo right after the action of one of my #magic effects tonight, but the shock still lingers. Stage show for our local #UnitedWay.

It was great working with Marlee & Mark, performing for @uwlafayette
tonight! I hope we were able to make a small difference, because a little effort from everyone adds up. Thank you for your kindness and generosity!

Unfortunate email from eBay. You remember when I told #eBay multiple times about this obvious #fraud - by email, chat, phone call, and clicking the cancel button a bunch of times?

Ebay does not care. They made a buck. They are also refusing to cancel my account that I didn't set up.

Earlier this year the state of Indiana made the Mastodon  the official state fossil! #Indiana #HoosierMastodon #Hoosierdon #Mastodon

Indiana lawmakers name mastodon as first state fossil

Indiana lawmakers have designated the American mastodon as the state’s first official fossil, advancing the proposal to the governor’s desk for final approval.

WFYI

Meanwhile, #Indiana is dressing for the #Yuletide early.

Friendly reminder to tell the people you care about you love them! It can be easy to fall into routines where you appreciate someone, but don’t say it out loud.

Call me cheesy or sentimental, but I love sharing and receiving care. Even if you already know it’s true, it’s nice to hear.
