Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
Hello Bone Colleagues, 
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

I started with "what's wrong with that panda?" clicked it, saw that it was just the rings of a felled tree. Then saw your spider web comment and laughed. Then saw all the other spider comments and had to go back, look again, and realize I'd failed the perception roll twice.

This one's totally on me. I was so quick to be like "wait what?" that I didn't even read the alt-text. Leaving my original comment up to make the mea culpa make sense. :)

Oh, the alt-text fixed me right up. The one that looked brown or black is a dark red and suddenly everything makes a lot more sense, sorry for doubting you :)

One way you know Dolly Parton lived life the right way: I don’t think anyone’s going to get fired for accurately quoting Dolly Parton today.

Too many people just want to write their name on things. Dolly Parton left a legacy. There's a huge difference.

I have a lot of art that friends made, which is awesome. But someone I don't know? I've been wanting to buy a piece of art from www.chiarabautista.com for ages, but she only seems to sell at conventions and I've never managed to be at one she's at.

It was such a fun night and I can't wait for the next one. I'm already looking to throw more things at this scope and figure out what my next scope is. It wasn't perfect conditions, we had clouds early and there's smoke in the air, but naked eye milky way, Messiers, and asteroids rounded us out.

Astronomy milestone: Stayed out late enough to observe Saturn with my own eyes through my own telescope last night. Saw the rings, jumped for joy and giggled muchly. Met a bunch of local stargazers, got to play with telescopes up to and including a 14" dobs, and observed Saturn through that too.

People saying "bill him" aren't going nearly far enough. Even the poorest billionaire wouldn't notice a fine of $100,000. Invested conservatively, a billion dollars pays 30 million a year. The hundred grand is a rounding error to these guys. Do a Switzerland. Bill him a percentage of his wealth.

Getting into #astronomy. Had a toy refractor as a kid. Just got a 130mm dobs, took it to dark skies, had a blast. Now looking to expand my kit. Came with 10 and 25mm eyepieces. Already picked up 6mm and 32mm eyepieces and a 2x barlow, along with a moon and solar filter. What else should I add?

On the one hand, I guess it's *nice* that I know how to disassemble my 3D printer's hot-end module and clean the internals of the extruder in a matter of minutes without looking up procedures. On the other hand I really wish I didn't need to know how.

Finally disposed of some batteries that I had been meaning to throw out for years, including some pretty swollen lithium ones. It took a few minutes. It reduced my stress significantly. I have learned nothing from this experience.

Today I took a flour tortilla and added seafood salad, a chicken tender, a splash of ranch, sprinkle of parmesan, some shredded pepper jack and some spices. I'm still not sure if I think it was good or not. It was food like. I am not hungry anymore. I guess it was fine.

“What a beautiful universe, hon" says a telescope as gazes upon an aurora borealis. “It really is”, responds the telescope's partner, who it turns out is not a telescope, but a microscope. Hands full of algae, she wades waist deep in a disgusting swamp, amazed by the heavenly microscopic life all around them.

This is fine. You are fine. It's normal to bring large quantities of optical glass with you when you go places. [he said, glancing over at the telescope and the pile of binoculars he crammed into his vehicle for his last vacation]

A bunch of space nerds reshared my last post about the milky way. I can also confirm that the VLA is still there and still VL.
VLA up close and personal.  A large radio dish against a blue sky with scattered clouds.Standing in a field of giant dishes.Mostly desert scrub on the side of the road, but a bunch of white circles show the approach to the VLA
