The Moon with featured craters (right to left) Petavius, Balmer, Langrenus, Apollonius, and Firmicus and seas Mare Fecunditatis (”Sea of Fertility”) and Mare Crisium (”Sea of Crises”) // Georges

Petavius crater is named after the French Jesuit Denis Pétau (1583-1652) known for his works on chronology.

Balmer crater is named after the Swiss mathematician Johann Balmer (1825-1898) who studied the hydrogen atom, discovering its series of optical emission lines.

Langrenus crater is named after the Dutch astronomer Michael van Langren (1598-1675) who used observations of the Moon to help determine longitude on Earth.

Apollonius crater is named after Apollonius of Perga (c. 240 BC - 190 BC), an ancient Greek astronomer who defined the terms ellipse, parabola, and hyperbola, and introduced eccentric orbits for the planets.

Firmicus crater is named after Julius Firmicus Maternus (c. 300s AD), a Roman astrologer.

I love the villain degradation trope.

I dunno if that's what it's actually called but like... I think it's hilarious when low tier villains from earlier in the media's story show up again and the protags are like oh hey, you! How have you been?

It's not at all a redemption arc bc the villain hasn't changed in the slightest. It's just that the stakes are so much higher the earlier villains don't like, register, and now they're working some minimum wage job because "being a villain" isn't really a functional skill you can put on a resume so they have to start at square one with employment like the rest of us

I am specifically thinking of doctor balmer from @bogleech 's Awful Hospital

Balmer, hon. Spotted this mug on the desk of Two-Way blog editor Catherine Laidlaw. 

Coincidentally, a Baltimorean who knits incredible sweaters depicting landmarks also just knitted a Groundhog Day sweater, and of course NPR Live was there:   

And, d’yahear Baltimore County will soon be home to a Guinness brewery? The Baltimore Sun reported that yesterday. 

Three cheers for Charm City! And since Punxsutawney Phil saw his dang shadow this morning, heralding six more weeks of chilly weather, here’s a parting shot of cozy Baltimorean glory:
