Ich muss das loswerden, weil es mich seit gestern Abend wütend macht. Gestern wurde beschlossen, dass das Deutschlandticket zum dritten Mal teurer wird. Parallel startet heute der Tankrabatt. Zwei Nachrichten, wenige Stunden auseinander, und sie erzählen alles über diese Regierung. 🧵

From the Wikipedia page: "[The curved blackboards are] built to the specification that they should be high enough for the mathematician to work but also 'low enough for small children to use the bottom bit.'" 🥹

So I’m gathering up my weird nature facts for the Hugo ceremony—I am the toastmaster, and this is gonna be EDUCATIONAL—and I found one that was actually a little more unsettling than I wanted. You all prepared?

How can we generalise the fact that the angles at the vertices of a triangle add up to 180°, to apply to tetrahedra and higher-dimensional n-simplexes? Here’s a result discovered by Benoît Bertrand and Lucía López de Medrano that I learned from Omar Antolín.

if you are a trans reader of mine and you struggle to explain to cis family and friends why you hurt so much lately I wrote this so you can send it to them. I feel like we know this pain intimately but I want everyone to understand it, because we are going to need help if it’s ever going to stop.

Uggggh. This attack makes me feel so protective of these few trans girls bold and organized enough about their identity to have applied to this amazing women’s college AND the whole community, now up for punishment by the Dept of Ed

It's Trans Day of Visibility and I wrote about how visibility without protection is a trap, and it often seems like the loudest calls for us to be visible are coming from those who have done nothing to protect us. www.coyotemedia.org/im-supposed-...

I’m Supposed to be Visible Today — But Why?
Every year I wonder if visibility and joy are the same thing. And every year I am more and more convinced that the answer is no.

Today, MSF is going public with something we've been fighting behind closed doors for months: Gilead will not sell us their new HIV drug, lenacapavir. The sticking point isn't even price, they just refuse to sell. Open letter linked + explainer 🧵1/ www.doctorswithoutborders.org/latest/gilea...

Mug progress!!!! Today was all about frogs, toads, and super-detailed leaf litter situations 👍

There are outlines of mushroom and a fully painted frog who looks a little out of itSame mug situation, but this time the frog is inspired by a grumpy little rain frogAnother bisque-fired in-progress mug, this one with an elaborate illustration of leaf litter & the critters who live in itAnother view of a leaf litter mug

Not gonna lie, sometimes I get inside the womb fluids tank when there’s no clone growing in there. It feels so good to float suspended like that and the juices do amazing things for my pores

Very much enjoyed this mathsy puzzle zine by @mscroggs.co.uk. Also great for sharing. While some of the puzzle instructions could be clearer IMO, I'm looking forward to the next one :)

ok so what gets called "gender ideology" is jsut like "be who and how you want" and what gets called "not ideology" is like "follow these specific unwritten rules and perform these forbidden rituals according to the circumstances of your birth"

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.
