I need your help. When I'm making projects happen, I don't have as much time to remind people to buy merch/donate to Skype a Scientist. SO our balance sheet is...oh dear 😅 If you're able, becoming a monthly donor, even a couple bucks a month, would be really amazing. givebutter.com/SupportSAS26

Great to be back in Barcelona for a few days! Wandered the Gothic Quarter, visited MOCO Barcelona, and ate a ton of amazing food...

Alrght everybody, get your Tin Can Telephones out. We need your help! We reach new people by word of mouth. Send all your educator friends this pic! Teachers, librarians, scout troop leaders, etc! We offer our program for free, so we need help getting the word out without advertising $$.

A purple and red octopus talk to each other on the tin can telephone. Purple octopus says “want to connect your students with real
Scientists?” Then red octopus says “Skype a scientist matches groups with scientists for virtual q&as. It’s free!” And then an orange flapjack octopus says “get a match at skypeascientist.com”

🕹️ I've had lots of fun playing with #MakeCodeArcade recently. Just finished a little Flappy Bird clone (except it's Flappy Duck) and currently working on Tetris. (Hoping to get round to making some guide-sheets soon too!) 👉 arcade.makecode.com/S05362-73372...

Took a break from setting up all the things we need to live in Bangkok for the next 2 (or more) years and checked out the Grand Palace and Temple of the Emerald Buddha...

Friends don’t let friends participate in AI “art” trends without giving them at least a little shit. If your friend had spinach in their teeth you’d tell them. This is the spinach-in-teeth of art. Also? AI art is BAD for the environment, in terms of energy use, water use, and other resources!!

Ok the squid facts hotline has officially made it into a poem and I am utterly delighted. Poem by instagram user @/MaryOliversDrunkCousin

A Poem, which reads:
One Wild and Precious Life Comin’ Right Up

Did you know that there is a number you can text
to regularly receive facts about squids?
And if you dial 651-301-8772 you’ll reach
a hotline that recites poetry to you?
I’m tickled to report that there’s an app that can
identify the birds in your backyard
based only on their melodic voices, and
the Los Angeles Kitten Rescue Sanctuary has a kitten cam
where you can tune in live to watch the kitties cuddle and play
I’m proud of us for trying to scrape together some joy;
For clawing our way towards delight
Taking a crack at glee
Striving for a life that sounds a little something
like a bird singing

The 3rd graders did an amazing job sharing their interactive science poster projects with kindergarten last Friday! Made with Scratch and Makey Makey.
