I once did some radio astronomy but now I'm a teaching monkey in physics/astronomy. I'm really that bad looking. Lakewood, CO

@juliemason.bsky.social Why should someone from 'Montana', or Wyoming (where I lived for a year), or any low information density state, have more sway to the national government than someone in a denser population with more information transfer?

@juliemason.bsky.social I watched for the first twenty minutes and went to bed. No whiskey though.

As my kids are gone to gramma's and my wife is still working, there's not enough torture in my life so I'm changing my mind and watching.

@juliemason.bsky.social I keep hearing the bumper with Mike Johnston, Mayor of Denver, and whom I voted for governor once, but I don't know how to find the link to the interview (the sirius web page did not help.) Have a fun debate!

a wild thing about the “biden’s gonna get magic drugs that transforms him from doddering senility case to rhetorical superman” is that everyone buying in on this idea has older loved ones suffering from old age mental degradation and knows heartbreakingly well this miracle drug does not exist

@juliemason.bsky.social I started watching College Women's Basketball this year due to Caitlin Clark- I went to grad school at Iowa and she was quite the phenom. It was a lot like men's basketball in the 70s.

The three numbers are wrong- the last one should be over 100k.

We're taking ours on the airplane for their first ride to Buffalo to see the eclipse.

LOL- in this case seeing family is a good thing. My aunts are in their mid-late 80s and I haven't seen them in years, and they haven't seen my twins.

This is not recommended (reason below) but for the 2017 eclipse I took a pair of those, chopped them up, and duct-taped them to binoculars (the objective side, not the eyepiece side) and those worked great! Don't do this though as one tiny hole can burn your retina.

@juliemason.bsky.social But Cannon has the most important case- the documents he stole and perhaps sold. BTW I get my news from POTUS and Twitter and Reddit and @9news.

The comet has jets, and the nucleus is rotating, so it's doing its best lawn sprinkler imitation.

@juliemason.bsky.social I don't think that it will be visible during the eclipse- maybe barely. It's expected to be 5th magnitude or a little brighter, which is the limit that people can see from dark skies. Eclipses don't make the sky completely dark! Pray for clear skies in Buffalo.

Oh, darn, I missed this segment. We're heading to Buffalo (where there's a 70 percent chance of clouds.)

Dang, I thought I'd see flowing martinis and manhattans (or at least some pinot grigio.)
