You guys want to hear a short but adorable story that happened right in front of me at the baggage claim in NYC yesterday? I wasn't part of it and there are bits I didn't catch but holy crap, I can't stop thinking about it.

Geologist & astronaut Dr. Kathryn Sullivan: the "most vertical human" in history. + From space: 1st American woman to walk in space, 11 Oct 1984 + To the deepest point of Earth's seabed: 1st woman to dive to the Challenger Deep (🔽 35,853 ft), 7 June 2020 She was born #OTD in 1951. #WomenInSTEM

A candid photograph of pioneering American astronaut and oceanographer Dr. Kathryn D. Sullivan (born 1951) celebrating her historic June 2020 return from the Challenger Deep—the deepest known point in Earth’s oceans. This moment solidified her legacy as the first person to both walk in space and reach the ocean floor. The outdoor shot frames Sullivan off-center against a deep blue, slightly undulating ocean that stretches out to a hazy, light-clouded horizon line under bright sunlight. Sullivan stands leaning slightly out from a white oceanic vessel hatch or submersible entry point. She smiles broadly with triumphant energy, looking off-camera to the left. Her left arm is fully extended outward, flashing an enthusiastic thumbs-up sign. On the far left edge of the frame, another crew member's hand wearing a black textured glove mirrors her thumbs-up gesture. She wears a cobalt blue utility flight suit featuring a golden rectangular patch over her right chest. Her light brown hair is short and windblown, and she wears rectangular tortoiseshell sunglasses. Thick, bright yellow heavy-duty rigging straps slice vertically through the left foreground, framing her body, while a curved metallic silver handrail sits to her left. The overall mood is joyful, victorious, and adventurous.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

This is quite cool. My university is the first organisation in the world to force Microsoft to allow us to turn off copilot summaries in Word 365, after a backlash against it from staff (including, very vocally, me). That cannot have been easy for our heroic IT people so hats very much off to them!

Planning dinner is, for many many many people, about what they have on hand, what they can afford, how work schedules change day-to-day, kids’ complicated schedules, individual preferences. The idea that this just a series of tasks is a huge cultural blindspot — which was my original point.
