This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

1) I thought we all knew that bird people are even worse than horse people (and only slightly behind gun people) in this department. Beware. 2) Editor is not the same role as fact-checker. 3) What a shitty thing to say when his editor has probably stopped him showing his arse a hundred other ways.

Tyrant Lizard Queen is almost here! In this week's free newsletter, I get into how I came to write a book on the tyrant lizard. Check it out on Buttondown.

buttondown.comMonday Fragments #35I didn't intend to write a book on T. rex. But then I did, and I loved it.

At least, I assume they’ve included parts of the interview. It was quite an event, having a TV crew work among the magnets. Good thing our 5-gauss lines are tight and their equipment is mostly nonmagnetic!

Hey #NMRChat! You’ll want to see this 60 Minutes segment on the impact of the current helium situation on science, industry, and national security. BONUS: Part was filmed in my lab at UChicago! They interviewed Biomolecular NMR’s Joe Sachleben in my photogenic chem NMR lab. #helium #realtimechem

No helium means no new smartphones, laptops, cars, MRI machines, or missiles. This irreplaceable resource is now in short supply as the war with Iran continues. Jon Wertheim reports, Sunday on 60 Minutes.

If it sounds like I'm spending a lot of time on ozone, I am. But it's super important for students to know that we can affect atmospheric phenomena for the better as well as worse.

@andrechemist.bsky.socialOct 19, 2026, 2:56 PMReposted by @heydebigale.bsky.social

Yes! I, too, spend a lot of time on ozone in my gen chem class because it shows how science can solve problems and that international cooperation can lead to good outcomes

Reminded of a really cool spectrum I acquired a few years ago.

Somewhat air sensitive ruthenium catalyst with 7 second transients at 15T FTICR.

Can someone confirm to me whether Chuck Schumer has issued any public statement on federal agents raiding Ilhan Omar's home and confiscating her phone, notebook, personal computer, and United States passport? It's been a couple days since news broke, I just want to know

AAlex Ip 葉清霖@alexip718.comOct 15, 2026, 2:43 AM

It would be nice if elected Democrats start speaking up about the regime seeking to nullify the will of hundreds of thousands of voters in the city where masked armed agents did street executions in front of cameras

I try to avoid commenting on anything that evil sad little nazi billionaire says or does, but a car that can fly is a weapon. He's making a weapon that terrorists will use.

@heydebigale.bsky.socialOct 16, 2026, 11:59 PM

I had that exact thought

something I have to try not to think about too often as the parent of a disabled child is the fact that in an active shooter situation she simply would not understand or know what to do or even necessarily follow every direction, and no amount of drilling at school is ever going to change that

All victims in the Oregon school shooting Thursday were shot inside one special needs classroom. A teacher tried to fight away the shooter's gun, helping to prevent more bloodshed before a father took down the shooter, police say. Follow live updates: https://cnn.it/3WvqJdz
