Replying to @UnitedAirlines_
@UnitedAirlines_ I think you've broken physics. We're simultaneously boarding and delayed! And the gate agent doesn't seem to understand why people are confused! They sent a text saying we're leaving early and boarding 20 minutes early, while simultaneously being delayed by 10min

We've now been boarding for 50 minutes and not a single person is on the plane, with the display now saying that boarding is closed ... It has freaked a few people out who rushed and now think they've missed their flight.

Itโ€™s a tough road. It shouldnโ€™t be though. ๐Ÿ™ƒ
Learning that 57% of African American doc students donโ€™t finish their degrees really lighted a fire inside me because academia is taking out so many of us when we not only deserve to be here but to thrive too

On this new federal holiday where we celebrate the end of (almost- work still needs to be done) slavery, we spent time out in the federal parks & our park system is such a wonderful treasure! We must protect these amazing spaces & ensure their existence for the next generation!

I mean come on- the beauty here is undeniable. I understand loving other types of landscape, but this is still beautiful.

I know Iโ€™m late with watching Eurovision - but my favorites seem to span both those who won and those who were unfairly judged (as in I really liked them) Who doesnโ€™t love Blood and Glitter! And Portugal - you were robed too!

The Skylab space station was launched into orbit 50 years ago today โ€” the last launch of a Saturn V rocket! #Skylab50 63 seconds into the flight, controllers saw the first signs that something had gone wrong, kicking off a dramatic race to save the entire Skylab program.
