Fritz Zwicky helped uncover dark matter and establish supernovas as a distinct kind of stellar explosion. He also reportedly called colleagues he disliked “spherical bastards”. Why spherical? “Because they were bastards from every angle.”

Hey Shona Rhimes / Netflix, Could you make this for me? Fictionalised version of life of Thérèse Schwartze. In late c19, she's Europe's most famous portrait painter. But.. she's also a detective! Each episode she paints the portrait and solves a mystery in the royal household she's attending..

Alt text: Screenshot of a text summary about Dutch portrait painter Thérèse Schwartze (1851–1918), describing her as one of the most successful and financially independent female artists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Below a heading "Key Highlights of Her Career," three bulleted points cover: her elite and royal clientele, including a 1881 breakthrough painting Queen Emma and Princess Wilhelmina; her vast oeuvre of roughly 1,000 drawings, pastels, and oil paintings over a 40-year career; and her prestigious recognition, including a self-portrait invited by the Uffizi Gallery and her role as a model for the Amsterdamse Joffers group of female artists. Small source citation tags (Rijksmuseum.nl, DailyArt, Journal of ART in SOCI...) appear beside each claim.
