Hey There friends! Thanks to another few donations, we've officially hit 30% funded, which means it's time for another episode announcement: Episode 4.06: It's Just His Hip. 🐕🛥🐜💙
200+ scientists are in the middle of a marathon livestream to show why weather and climate science is so important and needs all our help to continue.
It is here: wclivestream.com/watch
Seconding this as a scicomm person at a public observatory. i also think there are times to nourish people emotionally with science. One of my biggest goals is to chip away at people's shame for not knowing something. To celebrate saying "i don't know... but i get to go find out."
I've actually directed people to The Disordered Cosmos because I know that I can't undo years of shame in one conversation. But I can be one step, Dr. Prescod-Weinstein's writing can be another, and hopefully they'll continue taking those steps towards a healthy, nourishing relationship with science
So so glad to have had the opportunity to work with this team!! Help them reach their fundraising goal!!!!
