@Kiki I know exactly how you feel!! I too am not on any social media except for this site, this site has been my only outlet. I don't do FB, well except for the brief time of creating ShaQueefa DeJoy to troll peeps, but I have since deleted her acct because I didn't want the headache. I don't do any of it period. I don't show myself coz I don't want pics of me out there either. So I hear ya, but Kath was being their goody/funny self. 😉

OMG! I can't/can believe the guy said that. I love astronomy so that's as far as I go with Sagan etc. I also love Native American history . However, my degrees as well as love are in Ancient world history, Egyptology, and Colorado history (geology, Native American, mining/Old West).
I appreciate the abilities of Tyson but his character is associated with a number of sexually predatory incidents and accusations as well as compassion lacking public statements.
To paraphrase or summarize his statements involving the Indigenous of the Americas, he stated that among man's greatest achievements was the discovery and conquest of all that was indigenous. He completely disregarded the evil perpetrated upon the people of 2 continents which would include the chattel slavery of Africans. As well native civilizations have contributed much to the world that was previously unknown to them. Simultaneously he disregards the catastrophic ecological damage done here by careless colonization and industrialization.
While I so appreciate all your contributions and inclusive statements here Kiki, I won't be taking your advice on the Tyson celebrating T-shirts. We natives are as invisible to Tyson as the other non-native majorities.
Love that!!!
I'm gonna need you to runway model this before I purchase 100 of them 👌

Hey Kiki you know I adore you. I 100% agree with you on the importance of science. I'm on my phone now so no embedding links, fancy stuff, etc.
My fav scientist is Michio Kaku. theoretical physicist and co-founder of string theory.

Edited at home.
I think that's a stereotyped insult to Neil. He is a gentleman.
Today's nerd shirt.
