I said I'd do a thread about my new Space Science Reviews paper, so here it is! This is part of a collection of papers arising from a meeting at the International Space Science Institute in Bern in 2024: a workshop to better understand rocky extrasolar planets. A 🧵:
Interior structure models of Earth, Venus, Mercury, Mars, the Moon, and Io, all shown to scale and key elements labelled.

It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you deem one group too small to have equal rights you are enabling fascism, not fighting it. The people saying Dems are GREAT on trans rights are not paying attention and/or saying stuff like this.

The Democrats defend the Kennedy Center but not trans people.

@treewarrior.bsky....
maybe because defending everything about a super small minority of the population is not worth losing to fascists

We all learn from a young age that there’s enough food for everyone but millions of people starve anyway, that millions die from diseases for which cheap medicines exist, that there are many more houses than houseless, and so we learn exactly how much our lives are worth if we’re ever in the way.

never forget that the original criticism of that IT crowd episode was overly polite, couched in deference, and explicitly underselling the harm. Because its always a reminder that it literally does not matter how we act or what we do, it is our existence itself that is considered offensive.

I check Facebook 1-2x a month for family stuff. Turns out a few days ago my dad made a long post begging for understanding about trans people by his fellow boomers. Last paragraphs are below. Dad doesn’t always get it 100% right. He doesn’t need to. He loves and defends me; that’s all that matters
H. I have a trans daughter. She struggled to learn who she was.
She finally " got it" several years ago and has transitioned into a beautiful adult woman. I've seen the struggle up close. She has been mocked and beaten for being herself. I love her.
Personally I dont think I have the strength of character to do as she has, should I have been in that circumstance.
G. And finally..l just had to get this off my chest as I read, see and overhear uneducated, bigoted posts, stories, and conversation. Here's a testimony of a parent of a beautiful child..there are more of us than you know.
Hope this helps.
If I offends you..buh bye.
If you learned something..youre welcome.
IYKYK. PEACE AND LOVE ARE THE ONLY ANSWERS.

Four panel comic. Panel 1: a grey alien emerges from its UFO in front of a crowd of people standing below. The alien says, “earthlings… surrender now… we are—“ Panel 2: the first alien is interrupted by a second, different species of squid-like alien emerging from its ship. The second alien says, “humans! Prepare for—“ Panel 3: the two aliens quickly notice each other, looking surprised. Panel 4: the two aliens are laughing hysterically with their arms around each other amicably, each pointing to the other in a joking manner. This is the third time this has happened. A small group of onlooking humans stand behind them uncomfortably.

it's so easy to say nothing. for most people, anyway but instead we have city councillors chiding their constituents for engaging in democracy, all while spreading misinformation using a 19th century depiction of the horrific, public electrocution death of NYC telegraph lineman John Feeks
June 28, 2026 tweet from Councillor Lenny Zhou in response to a peaceful June 27, 2026 march against AI data centres. the tweet includes a cartoon, "The Unrestrained Demon" which is described incorrectly as an "anti-electricity cartoon":

Just like anti-electricity movement 100 years ago or anti-internet 50 years ago. History has never been kind to those who oppose technology.

AI is the future. Data sovereignty is a strategic necessity. Canada cannot build a world-class economy if our data infrastructure located in U.S. or other countries.

Those who oppose AI & data centres are risking our future. Canada should lead the AI revolution, not choose to fall behind.

Here's the serious bit for anyone who'd rather skip the 4000 words of jokes
Because the truth is, tech doesn't have an image problem. It doesn't have a message problem. It has an intention problem. What's wrong with the axe murderer who broke into my house is not that he hasn't successfully persuaded me to buy into his narrative. What's wrong is that he's trying to kill me with an axe. Similarly, when you launch a product that's designed to put millions of people out of work, block access to sources of verifiable truth, replace human creativity with slop, and lower the barriers to every sort of atrocity, the problem isn't that you haven't told the public a good story about those things. The problem is that you are trying to do them. (
There are things in the world that are more important than money. The fact that you seem not to believe this, that you seem to think any motive beyond ruthless acquisitiveness is fake, dishonest, or childish, is the heart of your problem. Your attitude is not by any means unique to tech, but the
