September-December 2016 were some of the worst months of my life. My best friend deserted me, taking our entire group with him. My marching band that I'm the brass captain of played amazing all year only to lay an egg at the biggest event of the year. I got cheated on while I was in the same house, one room over on a night I could have died after drinking too much and then passing out on my back.

But I always looked forward to Sundays (and one Monday and Thursday). Thank you, Dirty Birds.

People started liking him because he was a likeable scientist and they could feel unique to talk about a scientist nobody'd heard of (at the time). He gained a lot of popularity and exposure and now he's someone everyone knows. So now he's starting to circle into the territory of " (popular thing)? Well I don't like that!"


I have no opinions on the man one way or another. Cosmos was pretty cool though.

I mean... I have some mental health issues that occasionally manifest in suicidal tendencies... But if I had to rely on the Falcons to not blow my brains out, I hope someone would just put me out of my misery.

Actually its no. He is the same person that had a twitter meltdown over the scientific inaccuracies in Star Wars.

For every cool thing he does, there is 100 examples of how he is an insufferable autist over the dumbest poo poo.


Edit: Also, flying cars are a god drat stupid idea. Motherfuckers can't drive. effectively giving them a pilots license? Ok.

What loving idiot thinks that ends well.

He's an astrophysicist, so the odds of him inventing the flying car as the same as my odds of inventing flying car. 0% chance, because of no expertise in flying car technology.

An airplane isn't a "flying car" because its not a car. But the flying car is only 70.

Having to deal with smug atheists doesn't diminish NDT's effectiveness as a science communicator.

Doing/learning physics is fun but astrophysics is more of a "wouldn't it be cool to understand what they're talking about?!" thing rather than the very-not-fun building of simulations and having it match data from the observatories and blah blah blah

Anyway the point is astro is the dorkiest physics and somehow also the most captivating.

If you've ever been in an airplane you know it taxis down the runway. If that isn't being a car I don't know what is.
