Being comfortable enough to say โ€œI donโ€™t know, teach meโ€ is a life hack. It relieves me of the pressure to know it all. Even if someone is condescending to me, Iโ€™m like w.e. - as long as Iโ€™m learning Iโ€™m winning. Your need to feel like youโ€™re better than me is a personal problem.

The whole โ€œhowโ€™d you not know this, everyone knows thisโ€ crap literally kept me from asking questions in class for a while when in undergrad. I was always worried about being the dumbest in the room. It keeps so many out of STEAM. The whole point of science is to ask questions.

Imposters Syndrome will have you thinking your degree meant nothing, your accomplishments meant nothing, and the people who believe in you for good reason are all just sadly mistaken.

So itโ€™s time to talk about terraforming Mars. You may have heard about this in movies, but how would we really do it? Iโ€™m going to talk about what terraforming is, why and how we would terraform Mars, the issues it consists of, and my own thoughts on the subject. #scicomm (1/22)

Iโ€™m getting so much better at decoupling my self-worth and my academic success! I got the denial email from Ford Fellowship and I was disappointed but moved on and had a great rest of my day. Iโ€™ve never been able to do that.

Thread Alert: This is may stir some controversy but I think there really needs to be a conversation about the over-utilization of black scholars for outreach events/efforts (specifically STEM outreach).

Unpopular opinion: I wish we would leave colonization on Earth. I hate that we look at Mars as something else to OWN. Space should humble you. Itโ€™s not for colonization. Not another place we can go spray the โ€œHumans Waz Hereโ€ tag on and leave it shambles like weโ€™re leaving Earth

This is not the first time this has happened. The last time was with my dad. I thought he was calling so I could listen to his encounter with the police and come help him. I rush over to his house to find him sleep in the bed. This is traumatic.
