Things That Happened To Me When I Was A Woman In STEM:

Sometimes I forget that not everyone processes Dark the way I do. And by that I mean taking for granted that when Tannhaus speaks to Jonas he's actually talking to a reincarnated version of his daughter in law. The whole Jonas=Sonja and Martha=Marek thing has become so strongly rooted into my understanding of this series that sometimes I just need to take a step back and realise that a very good portion of the people who have watched Dark probably aren't even aware of this aspect. Or at least they don't consider it. But still, like.

wdym you didn't know that Sonja is an anagram of Jonas-

It's just odd for me I guess. It occupies an enormous portion of my mind when it comes to thinking about the series as a whole but in reality it's shown in like half an episode. And it's not really confirmed so it's regarded as a theory, although that hasn't stopped me from always just interpreting it as plain canon.

In terms of science communication and space exploration advocacy, Elon Musk has sent us back into the fucking Stone Age.

nooooo but you don’t understand!!! the doctor makes belinda a false promise to keep her safe despite betraying his promise to take her home at every turn because he is obsessed with the mystery surrounding her, belinda succumbs to his charm both as a protective mechanism because he is her one hope of getting home but also because she is compelled by the adventure, the outfits, the realisation that the doctor helps. all this to say……..toxic by britney spears is the perfect song choice for belinda and the doctor’s dynamic

she danced on my dragon till I feasted on her crow

sooo poetic that dany exists as this figurehead this one last scion of old valyria and the dragonlords that conquered a whole continent and yet she rebukes the valyrian legacy of slavery and actively works to dismantle the biggest piece of their colonial legacy. the last remaining child of a cruel father devouring his corpse. cruelty cannibalizing itself. epic and based

Watching Melanie and Georgie attempt to avoid the fact that they basically just chucked the Fears into other universes to get rid of them in their own when talking to Sam is really something
