[scrolling through a fandom tag] wrong. wrong. incomprehensibly wrong. wrong but harmless. nice style and color palette but I don't care about that ship. mildly entertaining liveblog update. they whitewashed my girl :( . good joke, reblog. wro--well that's my mutual so I will politely look away. fifteen posts in a row by an innocent rp blog that I don't have the heart to block. take I agree with but op was annoying about it. chapter twenty-eight of a longfic wip. !! GOOD POST !!, instafollowed. bot. technically correctly tagged but uses this acronym for something completely different. museum worthy art piece by a sixteen-year-old from the philippines. wrong. wrong but in a new and exciting way that provokes thought.

He's worried about stepping on flowers. He loves nature.

At this point it's more disappointing than shocking that not a single assassin in the states can aim a fucking gun

Btw if you say anything to the degree of “we want healthcare, not space travel” I automatically assume you’re a dumbass.

And furthermore ☝️ space science and medical science are one in the same. I know a lot of people have a very nebulous idea about what astronauts do, but almost every second of an astronaut's "day" is packed with research, maintenance, and interviews to those of us back here on Earth.

In fact, here are a few interesting articles on recent medical research from the ISS:

Eight implants for nerve regeneration were 3D printed in orbit to be sent back to Earth and used in clinical pretrials

ISS research contributed to the development of a new injection medication for early-stage cancer

Scientists working with the ISS are researching how microgravity affects heart cells, in hopes of creating more effective regenerative heart therapies

Mice were sent to the ISS to study treatments for macular degeneration ahead of clinical trials

I'm an aerospace engineer, so of course I'm on the side of supporting spaceflight and space science. But I think a lot of people dismiss NASA missions as overpriced joyrides for adrenaline junkies, when in reality these are very important ways for us to make scientific advancements that simply aren't feasible on Earth. Less than a cent of every tax dollar goes to NASA, and their science budget gets cut smaller and smaller every year. Publicly-funded science is not your enemy.
