Bring on the clutter. I figure if I'm spending an hour a day on social media and my time is valued at least $30/hour, then I'm "saving money" if I spend $300/year on print, right? #girlmath

Fromm's Art of Loving, hooks' All About Love, de Botton's Course of Love (crossover btw fiction and philosophy), and I'll always recommend Tolstoy's Anna Karenina for any occasion.

This sounds frivolous in the grand scheme of things but we need to support archivists, protect public libraries, protect journalists, writers, artists, photographers, and filmmakers. We need to continue to keep culture alive and educate our youth.

that fiber artistry and lacework and “women’s work” are what led to the invention of computer programming is so incredibly beautiful and makes me cry whenever i think about it
Nine years ago today I was at the Fondazione Lisio in Florence learning to weave velvet by hand on a 19th-century jacquard loom. I designed the pattern and hand-punched the cards myself. This technology was the basis for the binary computing system pioneered by Ada Lovelace.

always a delight when a structural biology methodology wins a nobel prize, though i'll always think cryoem and xray crystallography are superior methods #justsayin #reallifeisbetterthanAI
The Nobel prize website has a pretty well made 1-pager on how Alphafold works

Anna Karenina by Tolstoy is one of my all time favorite reads with a delightful balance of society drama and pastoral wholesomeness. Proust's Swann's Way and Lewis' Til We Have Faces are also fantastic.
