Tonight I learned that one of my heroes has died. I loved her and colleagues' "adventures" as a child and grew up to admire her scientific work for so many reasons. RIP Jane Goodall. Jane Goodall, wildlife advocate and primate expert, dies at 91 - www.reuters.com/business/env...

Star Trek Lower Decks scene. Captain Freeman is pictured in Engineering near the warp core which glows blue and red behind her. There's another crew member working in the background. With her back to the previously mentioned warp core, Freeman stands looking down & reading a padd she's holding. Closed caption reads, "Her medical opinion is that you are "a [bleep] pile of stress."

This fascinating timelapse of an orb-weaver spider building her web is even more remarkable considering she removes it before dawn each day and constructs a new one every night to avoid daytime predators. Credit: dinaoren0/tiktok

Star Trek The Next Generation scene. Captain Picard, a bald guy in a red uniform, is sitting on the bridge in his smooth puffy leather captain's chair and pondering with hand resting on chin. Caption reads, "Everyone still looks uncomfortable."

A birth certificate is required to get a social security card, and that number is used to obtain a Real ID Why do republicans claim a woman's ID is insufficient to vote? Whatever paperwork is required to vote should also be required to buy a gun.

Star Trek The Next Generation scene. We're close in on Data's face. He's looking nervously to his left and wide eyed while holding an old fashioned black telephone receiver to his ear. Closed caption reads, 
"FREUD: Kill them."

Star Trek First Contact scene, and if you haven't watched this one you should cancel all plans and view immejietly. (Also has a Mark S from Severance cameo) Ok, it's nighttime and we're close in on 2 dudes, closest is Zefram Cochrane, and just behind him is William T. Riker, famous tromboner. Both are in civilian clothes, Riker a leather jacket, and Zefram in a bomber type coat with the white fluffy wooly stuffing around the collar. Zefram is also wearing a weird black hat that is sort of like a bandana in form and function, but instead of fabric it's bedazzled leather. He's speaking, and looks kind of dumbfounded or stumped. closed caption reads, "You're all....astronauts-on some kind of Star Trek"Happy first contact day 🖖🏼

Star Trek Picard scene. An older Worf is shown, white eyebrows and goatee. There's a 'Mr. Worf Goes to a Rave' feel, with what looks like confetti dropping over him, blacklighting, and abstract art on the walls behind him, presumably drawn in Tide.  Closed caption reads, "Beheadings are on Wednesdays."

Today, I submitted a grant application. Amidst the chaos and destruction and uncertainty, I felt none of the catharsis that usually comes with hitting the submit button. Science and discovery are still important. I'm holding on to these facts so I don't lose my mind or forget my true north.

Star Trek The Next Generation scene. We're off ship in someone's house in the future on Star Trek. It's a busy house with lots of decore and art and curvy furniture. Front and center is Data in gold uniform. He's sitting in a chair, hands on armrests, and looks disheveled. His uniform is ripped and torn and maybe also a lil burnt? Also he has bed-head messy hair and looks a bit shooketh facially. Closed caption reads, "I am an iceman."

The thing we learned from Web2 is that the most impactful businesses became the most impactful by optimizing for addiction. Which means we should all ask, how would you optimize generative AI for addiction? Whatever makes it the most addictive is probably what it will become.

Star Trek The Original Series scene. The USS Enterprise (no bloody a, b, c or d) orbits a beautiful earth like planet, though probably not earth. Closed caption reads, "Stardate 3025...uh..3"

Star Trek The Original Series scene. We're on ship in personal quarters and there's some neon pink/purple lattice work in the background, which of course is a totally normal bedroom feature. Kirk is standing and seems to be thinking hard about something. Closed caption reads, "I DON'T KNOW WHY I HURT SO MUCH INSIDE ALL THE TIME."

Star Trek The Next Generation scene. Picard and Wesley Crusher are walking along a paved path outside in a lush green park. (Say that 5 times fast) Wesley looks *disappointed*, as if Picard just told him that Santa Clause is not real. Closed caption reads, "You should feel bad."

Star Trek Deep Space Nine scene. I think we're on planet Ferenginar in a house and we see Rom in a nice jacket in colored strips of varying earthtones. Rom has giant round earlobes that circle across his forehead like a unibrow and a pinecone texture nose. Here, he looks stern and shouty. Closed caption reads, "(shouting): And no shouting!"

Star Trek The Next Generation scene. Riker, in a blue bathrobe and blue jam jams, braces himself for steadiness at the door coming onto the bridge from a turbo lift. He looks hungover and exhausted. Closed caption reads, "It was worth it."

Star Trek The Original Series scene. Montgomery Scott, in his red uniform and with a floral red velvety looking backdrop, looks happy. Like, just SO happy. He's beaming, not StarTrek beaming, just happy beaming. Closed caption reads: [BANGING]

Star Trek The Next Generation scene. We're "on the D" and in personal quarters with sitcom buddies Data and Worf. Data looks concerned! as he stands next Worf who is very awkwardly holding a cat by its little cat armpits. Worf's hands are huge in comparison and it appears he is not a big fan of cats. Closed caption reads, "Tell him he is a pretty cat."
