For the record, Columbus neither founded nor stepped foot on America. How about a Lief Erickson day, or an Amerigo Vespucci day, as a national holiday ?

I went to Costco to buy paper towels and coffee, but first I had to walk miles through the undying land of canned goods, fight the witch-king of coffee for the last bag of @peetscoffee , and get past all the Gollums waiting for their precious free samples. Never again. All the

Well said @jrpsaki, well said! Also, while we are here, we donât want a press secretary who spices things up for political gain. đ Hope you and yours are well -Pete Girguis
I have worked for two Presidents, briefed two Presidents. We donât want a President sitting in the Oval Office who wouldnât demand exactly this. Itâs literally your job to be prepared for it.

The solar eclipse is a reminder that our world as we know it depends on this one star that burns millions of miles away. Itâs so much a part of our day-to-day lives that blocking it, even for just a few minutes, is an exhilarating if not unsettling experience. This was, without

My name is Kristin Song. On January 31, 2018, my son Ethan was shot in the head in his best friend's house. The father/gun owner stored 3 handguns and ammunition in a shoebox. Ethan's friend had been accessing the guns for over 6 months. At the hospital, the ER doctor slid

This. A thousand times this.
@historyinmemes No one knows how deep my love for Hidden figures is. When the movie came out, it was when I thought of quitting my engineer degree. Asked for a sign to stick around, this movie was it. And today Iâm a computer systems engineer. Iâll never get tired of watching this.

The best part for me of becoming mid-career: figuring out what really matters. And yesterday, celebrating Jan Amends legacy of mentorship and love and laughter, surrounded by his family, friends, and science family, I was reminded that it is the most important thing I can give.

As far as I am concerned, a whole bunch of octopuses is a tangle of octopuses. Thank you for coming to my TED talk .đ
Get ready for #WorldOctopusDay! There isnât a formal collective noun for octopuses, but a group is often called a âConsortium.â This is nowhere NEAR as catchy as âSquid Squad,â so weâd love to hear your suggestions in comments. These little ones seen on #CliffReefs expedition 1/2

Tell me youâve never seen academics talk to each other without telling me
Part of the issue is that academics are too slow to explicitly call out one another's bullshit. There's a bit of a bystander effect, and when that happens, people who do call it out are more likely to be targeted through peer pressure or sometimes even lawsuits.
