THREAD: Resurgence or: How do physicists keep getting away with ignoring infinitely big things? I've been learning about this for a few weeks and I think it's really cool and want to share it with you 1/20

not that deep
Earnest take: I think it’s probably not healthy for the practice of democratic self-government that so many people have developed strong rooting interests in elections in countries they don’t live in.

Congratulations to Ashoke Sen on winning the Oscar Klein award. Here's a Sen story to celebrate
One of my favorite Ashoke Sen stories is when a PhD student wrote a letter to him(this was in the early 90s) as a last ditch effort to understand some concepts that were eluding her. Unknown to her, Sen was due to visit her institute a week or so later. When Sen arrived, the very first thing he did after checking in was to find the student and answer all her questions.

QAnon has independently re-derived the Jewish alcoholism vegetable.
The “medbed” phenomenon is not talked about nearly enough. Elderly QAnon acid casualties actually believe that there are magical beds that can heal their ailments and Trump has posted videos feeding into this. If this was in some tinpot African dictatorship people would mock it.
