The #US "has become more racially segregated according to a [report that] argues, racial residential segregation is βthe deep root causeβ of systemic racial #inequality - bc. where you live determines everything. Your proximity to jobs. The quality of your environment. Where you go to school, whether youβre surveilled/ harassed by the police".

Great minds think a lake.

But they are also fighting for our common European values of peace and prosperity.
They need and deserve our support.
@ScottSoCal I've been trying to get as high as those people since 1976. Must have been much better reefer back then.

Well, we already hear a lot about famous men like Einstein & Darwin. But there are so many wonderful stories of other amazing individuals who have made significant contributions in #science #tech & beyond but havenβt been celebrated as widely.
And when we donβt see ourselves in the #history of STEM, we may not recognize we are capable of great achievements too.

Im so glad Sarah covered this b/c its problem i feel doesnt get enough attention:we will be clearing mines for yrs after war is over, meanwhile civilians will be injured & killed. RU purposely saturate occupied areas w/ mines, w/ longterm goal to terrorize us& make land unusable. https://twitter.com/SarahAshtonLV/status/1615756228059344896
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
