This has been on my feed all day so I'm going to give it as fair as treatment as I can. Prof. Wolfers is well meaning & I get the intuition, but he's speaking outside his area of expertise and he's just wrong. Having lunch with someone you disagree with isn't going to "cure ideological bias." 🧵

"When hippies flocked to his locale (in Northern California) in the late 1960s, Bob McKee taught many of them carpentry skills, sold them land on which to build their houses and provided timber from his own lumberyard" www.worldofinteriors.com/story/bob-mc...

The man who designed DIY dwellings for California’s hippies

Bob McKee became a guru of back-to-the-land architecture in 1960s California. His part-Art Nouveau, part-Gingerbread redwood houses spoke to arriving hippies

What this chart is telling me is that none of the current LLMs are as powerful as the Magic 8 Ball. It's just science.

Especially because we can just call the OH on phenol what it is… a hydroxyl group… that’s directly attached to a phenyl ring…

jamie ! @metallocene.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

this puts into words exactly why I feel so averse to calling phenol an alcohol 😭😭imo alcohols need an sp3C-OH to qualify for the name

Pro-tip: if you shake (at 2-3 Hz) your iced coffee right before your job interview it will transform into a drink that's okay to bring with you

Developers and practitioners of photochemical reactions have to reckon with reproducibility—this simple paper is an intriguing wake-up call. A 2-dram vial positioned 1 cm from a 3-Watt LED heats up by over 40 ºC! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Temperature and reproducibility in photocatalysis - Nature Chemistry

In recent years, there has been a surge in the development of reactions using photoredox catalysis. However, the ability to reproduce these reactions varies wildly, owing to key factors such as light ...

Did you know the wasabi in most sushi restaurants isn't wasabi? Or that a chemical synergy between dried seaweed and raw fish enhances sushi's savoury flavours? Learn more about sushi science with this infographic, as requested by my sushi-mad seven-year-old 🍣 wp.me/s4aPLT-sushi #ChemSky 🧪

This infographic titled "Sushi chemistry: nori, wasabi and sticky rice" explores the science behind sushi. It features three main panels with illustrations, chemical structures, and explanations. The left section explains how amylopectin in rice creates stickiness and how acetic acid from vinegar aids gelatinisation. The middle panel covers umami flavours from glutamate, inosinate, and guanylate found in nori and raw fish, displaying their molecular structures. The right panel discusses allyl isothiocyanate in wasabi and horseradish, along with gingerol and shogaol compounds in pickled ginger (gari). Photos of six different sushi rolls line the bottom.

O hey Reminder that in (homophobic) '94 as Dookie was blowing up, Green Day picked queercore Pansy Division to open for them + a lot of venues pressured them to drop them as openers -- Green Day told the venues they wouldn't play if PD didn't - and the venues (mostly? all?) backed down. huh.

Paperback. Some of y'all might hate me for this, but I love making little annotations in books (and reading others' annotations in pre-loved books), and this is by far the best vehicle to do that.

Technically part of a trilogy, but Jazz by Toni Morrison is so stylistically different from every other book I've read in the best way: the prose reads like instrumental phrasing and i love love love it.

also rereading lolita (vladimir nabokov) in an attempt to finally finish it but it's horrifying coming back to it as a 22 year old vs. being 16 on my original read, like it is much scarier than I originally percieved it to be.

For memoirs/ biographies: 'Scuse Me While I Kiss the Sky: The Life of Jimi Hendrix by David Henderson, autobiography of Malcolm X, Redefining Realness by Janet Mock, and We Both Laughed in Pleasure by Lou Sullivan. For textbooks: Anslyn's Physical Organic Chemistry. It's so sassy I lovee it.

I love Atlanta Vintage Books up in Chamblee (GA, USA), they have vintage chemistry textbooks in the basement (and cats! among a ton of other awesome surprises lol) I also like A capella books, Book Nook, and ATL vintage books(in order from fav to least). I've heard Eagle Eye is good but never been.
