#bluedot — Public Fediverse posts

My phone is reminding me that on this day in 2019 I was at #Bluedot Festival, celebrating the anniversary of the moon landings at the awesome #JodrellBank. I really miss that festival! The mix of art, astronomy, science, history and music was really cool.

Chemical Brothers at #bluedot a few years ago was one of the best things I've ever seen.

Did #dems fail the working class? Idk, it's been 39 years since Carl Sagan addressed Congress about the threat of #climatechange and we haven't even stopped giving subsidies to fossil fuel companies. That's a huge failure. They failed all of us on this one.

Okay now I'll be petty: a neighbor has added the same #TFG banner across the street from the first and both are hung with lots of duct tape yet are still drooping and unreadable...

...just like the guy the banners represent!

Reminder that the “Blue Dot” that’s been in the news contains a third of the state’s population. #bluedot

Not to be petty, but the neighbors put up a big #TFG banner in their yard and the duct tape holding it up has failed on day 3 and I think it's awesome.

Meanwhile our #HarrisWalz sign has been joined by another about a block away.

@irix and more. Had to wait until I was home as signal v poor. #bluedot festival/mudfest.

@irix As promised. #bluedot festival camping under the Lovell telescope.

Musing more about speaking about #science after the #bluedot weekend. It's striking how the very best talks I saw are a long way from what I used to do as a standard public talk - essentially a seminar with fewer technical details. The very best talks are stories, with narrative, surprise, sometimes humour, and a rhythm to them that's very different to most speakers, even the good ones. How do we teach this? Should we? It's a lot more work than the standard approach...
