It’s always amusing to me that Scienceworks is just… Scienceworks now, and not MFP headquarters (or, reaching further back, the MMBW site where my uncle worked)

Ash's random Monday thought:
If a Republican in govt or Rep supporter tells you they don't believe in science, remind them that science was deeply involved in the invention of flight.
And then say: "You're welcome."

When I was a kid spending my summers on a lovely little lake Up North, it was a big deal to see a heron. Never saw a bald eagle, never saw a sandhill crane, an egret, osprey or a pelican. Then DDT was banned, the birds came back, and now we even see eagles around Madison. #ScienceWorks

Feeling that post-flu shot slump? I am! Rest easy—it’s not an infection, it’s just your immune system flexing! 🛡️💪 Those mild aches and fatigue mean your body is building its armor and revving up to protect you. Totally normal, totally worth it.

only interesting thing about this is the finish crash reminding us of the guy who tried to sue Scienceworks after he broke his back running full pelt into a wall trying to outsprint virtual Cathy Freeman
A Chinese humanoid robot outran Usain Bolt’s 100-meter sprint world record on the opening day of the World Humanoid Robot Games in Beijing, posting a time of 9.39 seconds — 0.19 faster than Bolt’s pace in 2009.
