Pint of Science festival is rad. Bingo (aka FAT!), cute cell plushies and lots and lots of fat chat. @pintofscience.us @pintsworld.bsky.social SCIENCE IS COOL. SUPPORT SCIENCE.

Blonde person holding a fat cell keychain in front of a large screen projecting a science talk titled “the remarkable relationship between brain and fat.”

Me, blonde person in lime green pantsuit in front of screen with images of a leopard gecko, dolphin, beaver, camel and blue whale. Each animal has the word “fat” in red capital letters in a stamp like font, stamped on part of their body. Showing animals have fat for special functions

Me, blonde person in lime green pantsuit mid sentence gesturing about fat cells getting bigger to store more energy. In front of large screen with image of steak, zoomed in to show fat tissue and fat cells within the steak.

Image of a bingo card, made on a white pice of paper, with various images and words I said during my science presentation. There is a plush fat cell to the left of the bingo card and a row of plastic sample tubes to the top of the bingo card.

Jazzed from reading @dcinbox.bsky.social‘s How To Raise A Citizen & from a Sociocracy in Higher Ed class. My 3yo is practicing democratic vs. sociocractic decision making. I hear the goat enjoys being a part of the sociocratic circle, especially when the proposal is to destroy their block mountain🤣

Child playing with dolls. On the left, two groups of dolls are facing each other- one group with eight dolls and one with two. On the right, a group of six dolls are in a circle, with one goat included. Two towers of blocks are by each side.
