Physicist Marguerite Perey discovered Francium #OTD in 1939. It was the last element to be found in a naturally occurring state, rather than synthesized by humans. 🧪 ⚛️ 👩‍🔬 Image: Musée Curie/ACJC Collection

Suggestion: stop calling it “generative AI”. Call it “regurgitative AI” instead. Much more descriptive.

I’m a gun owner, and I respect the rights of responsible gun owners. That said, the second amendment will continue to be watered with the blood of children until the laws change.

I think this should be kind of a big deal: Elon Musk tweeting at 1:03am, “Only the AfD can save Germany.” The AfD is Germany’s neo-Nazi party.

It's that time of year when I gently remind you (but only once) that books make great gifts. Enjoy your holidays! bookshop.org/contributors...

@whimsicalmuse.bsky.social is channeling my precise thoughts at this precise moment in time. Here's hoping that sometime this weekend you will find us both well with our cozy tea, scones, and Christie novels.

I was a child in the Seventies. This makes me wonder what was going on with our parents.

Huge moment for Agatha Christie in Italy as her selected works have been published in Mondadori’s Meridiano series — this acknowledges ‘contemporary classic’ status alongside Borges, Tolstoy, Flaubert, and Proust. It has not been without debate.

Ok, y'all. I watched a video and read instructions for bridging my Twitter peeps over here and I can't figure out how to make it work. Can you point me to stepwise instructions for people who...um...have never used a chrome extension before at the level of "Have this tab open and push that button"?

Since someone pointed it out to me, every time I see promo for wicked I think about how funny it is that this is a movie based on a musical based on a book based on a movie based on a book about American monetary policy in the early 20th century
