Yes, Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term “dark matter” which is impressive, but he also coined the term “spherical bastard” to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and I think that should be celebrated more.

It is Juneteenth. I feel it is pretty important to remind everyone that the Juneteenth flag colors are Red, White and Blue ON PURPOSE. The corporate marketing that uses only African Freedom and Pan-African Liberation colors feels like erasure. So let's talk about Black African diaspora flags 🧵1/8
A graphic about the Juneteenth flag 
The colors: The colors of the American flag – red white and blue 
This is to say that the people freed in Texas were American citizens 
The 5-point star is a symbol for Texas (the Lone Star State) where the Juneteenth holiday started and to represent the spread of freedom to all 50 states. 
The star burst represents a nova as a symbol of a new beginning. 
The date June 19th, 1865 is also printed on the flag

A fake IKEA instruction leaflet for a product called "KORGMANNEN" showing the IKEA man explaining that the build requires 50,000 sticks, a ladder, 4 burning torches and a policeman. Underneath that is the finished item - a wicker man - which has 4 smiling IKEA men standing around the base with burning torches in their hands.
