New Nasa director swears oath on Carl Sagan’s ‘Pale Blue Dot’ instead of Bible:
"Makenzie Lystrup, who became the first woman in Nasa’s history to be appointed the director of Goddard Space Flight Center on Thursday, took her oath on a copy of Carl Sagan’s 1994 book Pale Blue Dot instead of the conventional practice of using the Bible."

New instance, new #introduction!
I’m a #queer, #British #bisexual (they/them) #sociologist who has been living in #Japan for 20 years. Until last year I was a tenured Associate Professor at a top #science and #engineering university in central #Tokyo researching #HCI and #sociology of #community. I took (very) early retirement to focus on my #MentalHealth after the workplace environment triggered what I now know is #CPTSD.
I toot on lots of things but expect #Judaism, #feminism, #trans and #nonbinary rights, #mentalIllness (especially #depression, #anxiety and #therapy); also #research on use of #technology and life in Japan.
Recently I’ve started watching #movies more than TV so expect some reviews from #Letterboxd.
Nice to meet you!
New instance, new account, new #introduction
I'm a queer trans witch and activist from #Sweden and #Uruguay, with an interest in #music and #photography. Currently unemployed.
I'm also the admin of Toot Foundation, which I'm launching because my previous instance is closing and none of the alternatives scratched the same itch.
If you post about these topics, we might have something to talk about: #climate #cyberpunk #SciFi #feminism #TransRights #witchcraft #StarTrek #gaming #ChaosMagick
It seems the hashtags in our profiles might not be searchable, so I'm pinning this to help find like-minded people.
