Ex Astris Scientia

My friend @theworldsgreatestdetective0 had his friend the_cat_that_lurks on Instagram make his dnd ranger and she was sad the algorithm didn’t pick it up so I just wanted to share it so people could see how good her art is and maybe go show her some love on her Insta

mom got yukon gold potatoes instead of the russet ones we normally get and no one liked how sweet the yukon ones were and I was trying to put my finger on what I liked about the russet ones and just said “I like how they taste like dirt”

How does the astrophysics community feel about Neil Degrasse Tyson? Is he viewed favorably or is he like one of those figures that's only liked by the public?

Only liked by the public.

I’ve met him and he’s as pretentious in real life as his is on twitter. Actually, no one in my department here likes him.

He hasn’t published anything this century. His last publication was in January of 1998. He worked with the COSMOS project that put out 3 papers in 2007-8, but it was a collab and he didn’t have much to do with them.

These days he basically goes around teaching half-truths and being shady on social media to stay just relevant enough for pop culture nerds to be obsessed with him.
