Spooky Science Sisters 👻

We’re generally staying off this site these days, so if you need us, here’s where we’ll be:

We are so excited to share episode 79 with you, which features the amazing Geo Rutherford, creator of everyone’s favorite fall video series, Spooky Lake Month! Listen to learn more about Geo, as well as some facts & stories about three of the world’s spookiest lakes. 👻

@artsofgrizzly This is a weird lie. You’re not Allison. 😂

It’s been too long since we’ve talked about aliens, so let’s talk about why they aren’t visiting! Our Substitute Sister for this is the out-of-this-world @AkAstronomy 👽 #aliens #fermiparadox #spookyscience

@AkAstronomy Listen, you knew what you were in for. 😜

@DSAArchaeology I truly believe the breakdown of modern society started with the release of season 1 Ancient Aliens.

The CDC whispered this a year ago. “SARS-CoV-2 can have lasting effects on nearly every organ & organ system of the body weeks, months, & potentially years after infection. Documented serious post-Covid conditions include cardiovascular, pulmonary, neurological, renal, endocrine, hematological, & gastrointestinal complications, as well as death.” cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvss…

Listen, if you’re boring, just say that. 😘 I could say we’ll try to do better, but we absolutely won’t. I’ve been told I’m not serious enough my entire career, & I’ve still had a successful one. It’s ok for scientists & science communication to be silly & relatable. #womeninstem

Also, you better believe I came home with a Pareidolia Pepper. They wouldn’t sell me a piñata, though.

#OmegaMart was everything I dreamed a journey through an inter-dimensional grocery story would be. If you are in Vegas and like spooky, weird stuff, it’s a must see!

In case you’re wondering how today is going, I just typed “goasts” instead of ghosts, and it took me more than a few seconds to figure out why that wasn’t right.

Does anyone have a good reference for at least an estimated number of locations that are considered haunted in the U.S.? The only one I can find is the Wikipedia list, & I really don’t want to go through and count them individually. Bonus if your ref includes other countries.

Part II of our series on the Salem Witch Trials is out now! This episode covers the specifics regarding the accusations, trials, and executions. Next time, we’ll talk about medical explanations for what happened in this small New England town >300 years ago. #salemwitchtrials

@AkAstronomy Bahahaha this could not be any more perfect. 😂

Leaving my office after recording with @AkAstronomy feeling more alone in the Universe than ever. As it should be after a conversation about the Fermi Paradox. 😉

If you want to support a first-time novelist and an indie press, we would all appreciate it! Buy the book or just spread the word! Everything helps, even if it is just a boost to help The Way By find its audience.

…empty-headed and incapable of critical thought when it comes to literature or other art. Embrace them, make new connections, and let people, especially young women, love what they love. (2/2) #ts11 #taylorswift

I’m sorry, but are poets really on here whining that they suddenly have an opportunity to share their work with a much broader audience like it’s an inconvenience? It’s telling that many of you seem to think Taylor’s fans, who are primarily younger women and girls, are just (1/2)
