Let's talk the so-called need to "get women interested in science". The thing is: we *are* interested (HELLO 🙋♀️). We're everywhere. That isn't the problem. The problem is *keeping us here*. Creating a safe environment for women, esp. women of color, is the problem.

Here’s something weird to wrap up your Sunday evening. In 1981, Dragon magazine published AD&D character stats for Bugs Bunny (15th level illusionist) and other cartoon characters. pic.twitter.com/INMlLDzjxw

Timelineda herkes Dolar Euro diyor. Biliyorum pedantik olacak ama Dolar, Euro, Pound yükselmiyor. Onların değerleri az çok sabit. Değer kaybeden Lira, hem de çok ciddi bir değer kaybı - ama şimdi de değil sadece, uzun süredir boyle bu, epey tutarli olarak hatta. Okuyun bakalım:

Incredible chart. Take mortality statistics & subtract infectious disease. You see: (a) in the twentieth century we largely defeated infectious disease in the US (arguably the biggest achievement of 20C); and (b) little else we did in medicine affected mortality. via @patrickc pic.twitter.com/k2DAtPoEz8

Quick update: I reached the summit of #Everest at 0430 this morning (local time) in time to watch the sunrise. I was the first up so had the place to myself. I'm now on my way back down. #EverestStories pic.twitter.com/bpWxS3Xhve

So far in 2018, nearly twice as many people have been killed in schools than in the military.https://t.co/Z9MFpIoS0y

A photo of me having reached the summit of #Everest. I got back to base camp safely yesterday. More on the #scienceofthesummit to follow soon. #EverestStories pic.twitter.com/uQnOw3MN3H

Wow, this tweet is going viral! I should make some comment about it? I guess I will say that when I graduated from Harvard my dad toasted me and said, "You've been given a lot of power. Now use it wisely." So, I'm trying. Jared isn't. https://t.co/7tFbwj1epj

My friend @DrEugeniaCheng is giving public lectures in Australia! The mathematician Ross Street took this photo. Her slide says "Category theory is the logical study of the logical study of how logical things work." Yeah! Don't fear abstraction - love it! pic.twitter.com/YRkvm47Wln

Have you been hearing about https://t.co/8dUNlgzBNK and how it lets others run your code without having to install stuff locally? A bit lost with all the moving parts, how to set it up, where the docs are? Follow this thread!

No. Just no.
Can we take a Time Out on the frankly bizarre attempts to shoehorn sciencey-sounding nonsense into climate change denial until we don’t need to constantly debunk volcano myths? https://t.co/JoZcqfEkTU

Now that we're (very slowly) moving away from the "women can't do science" narrative, it's become "we need to get women interested in science". There's *always* an excuse other than the truth, which is that the climate makes it difficult to keep women here.

My book with @JacobBiamonte is out! Learn how quantum ideas like Feynman diagrams can be applied to population biology! Learn how Petri nets let you do computation with chemistry! Plus, it's got a cartoon of me pulling a rabbit out of a hat. https://t.co/gxXYKl4Eo7 pic.twitter.com/T2OKHDkjwn

Brilliant women have left the field, because this field (physics and astronomy specifically) won't get its shit together with sexual harassment. I know of many instances in physics and astronomy as well as engineering, but this is true for all STEM fields (feel free to share any)

I just backed the Cities at Night project, do you want to back it too? Your donation will help citizen scientists convert astronaut photographs into useful data about #lightpollution. https://t.co/cBymu1dagm
