this happened to me once

i had gotten really high, cosmically high, and decided to walk to the store to get ice cream. it was around twilight. as i'm walking there's this dude across the street in his yard looking at the sky. he sees me and yells "hey! yo! wanna see something cool? cmere!" and i'm like, eh, what the hell, worst thing i can see is his dick. so i go over and he points at the sky and just says watch there and starts counting down from 25, looking from his phone to the sky. a bright light appears and fades off over the span of a few seconds, it was the reflection of the sun off a passing satellite's solar panels. made my night. thanks random space nerd neighbor

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

This poo poo boils my blood rn as my SO and multiple friends across the drat world are stuck quarantining and having to listen to some entitled jackass do heavy construction all day while they do their own work. You would really think there would be some way to stop them short of "break their drat arms and legs" but there's no reasoning.

A walk I take regularly is along a cliffside overlooking the Irish Sea and sometimes I see dolphins. Every single time, I spend the next few minutes of my walk hoping I'll run into families with kids because I really really want to tell the kids that if they LOOK OVER THERE RIGHT NOW they will see some dolphins. I'm too shy to tell random adults, but I can deal with kids. It's great because people don't expect to see random wild dolphins around here and kids are especially excited because most have never seen one before ever :3:

One Halloween we had the idea of taking my big old Dobsonian telescope out to the sidewalk (along with the big bowl of candy, of course) and letting all the kids going by have a look at the Moon. Unfortunately it turns out kids don't really trick-or-treat after dark anymore, so barely anyone came along. :smith:

But a year or two later I went along on an observing camping trip, and quite by chance there was an entire cub scout troop camped right next door. So they all got to look through a bunch of scopes and binoculars at planets and galaxies and nebulae, all narrated by us amateur astronomers gesturing at the sky with our green laser pointers. :unsmith:

when I was a kid, (around 6 or 7 I think) there was a planetarium near me that my parents used to bring me to and they had what they called "star parties" that were literally just that. Once a month, all these amateur astronomers set up in the parking lot with their telescopes pointed at different things, and we'd come with a thermos of hot chocolate and just look at all the cool things that were visible. It was super cool

There's a branch of math that consists of figuring out how to assign reasonable values to the sums of divergent series. If you're going to assign a value to 1 + 2 + 3 + ..., -1/12 is the most reasonable choice, but it's definitely not good to just say 1 + 2 + 3 + ... = -1/12 without being very clear about what you mean by =.
