"We live in #capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. #Resistance and #change often begin in #art, and very often in our art, the art of words."
- Ursula K. Le Guin

I think the bar for pies has been set.
Nerdy bonus though, if I make more than one then there would be _______.

Mosstodonians, Did you know that a #mossery is a place where mosses are grown?

“At first, they should be kept well watered, but afterwards the mosses must be left alone, for they abhor to be meddled with, and will revenge themselves upon all busy-bodies by refusing to grow …”

British Mosses, their homes, aspects, structure, and uses : with a figure of each species etched from nature, F.E. Tripp, 1868.

C'mon, #quantumphysics #quantum #quantummechanics peeps. QUTO only works if you share what you know. please help me out here!

How can one efficiently normalize a multi-fermion wave function composed of a determinant of single particle orbitals which are not orthogonal to each other?

If dogs could talk, would they still be (wo)man’s best friend? Better question: if we were all mute, would the world have more or less violence? If less, would it justify the stifled innovation & collaboration?

In case you don't already know, we are not post-pandemic. After a conference in Stockholm, a couple people came down with Covid. At my conference in London, we lost a couple people to it, and the organizer had to Zoom in because she was positive. My conference in Berlin was cancelled...due to Covid. I'd hoped to write something more clever, but please look after your #immunocompromised and #disabled friends -- wear a mask and don't assume it's "just a cold."
