    So, here are the nails of an internationally leading particle physics professor. My nails.

    Don’t believe the gatekeepers! #womeninSTEM

        @freyablekman fuck that guy. My son is the top physics student at his school, and if I heard this bullshit from his teacher, I'd take him to go get his nails painted that night

            One of the novella brothers was telling us on their podcast that their daughter's science teacher told his class the moon landings were faked. Completely inappropriate and for 2026, mindboggling.

                                          @freyablekman my PhD is in chemistry, but I work in photonics (physics! lasers!) and these were my nails I got done for the last conference I attended

                                          When I read “photonics” my first thought was the snarky holographic doctor on Star Trek. 😆 Lasers are fun too, though!
