Disclaimer, Disclaimer, Disclaimer!!!
There is a baby crying.
My baby.
He is sick, fever, rash… blisters on his tongue.
His mother is trying to sooth him.
He cannot be appeased.
Will not be calm.
The discomfort is too great.
I would have written a typical disclaimer here
Something topical or sciencey
But I cannot
Thinking is impossible under these conditions
There is a baby crying
My baby
At some point, he will sleep
For how long?
Not long.
But in the moments in which he sleeps
There will be silence
A blanket of peace thrown over the household
We will step cautiously
Open drawers and cabinets with delicate care
Speak in hushed tones
Knowing that there is a baby sleeping
Our baby
Who upon waking
Will again be crying
He will get better
Be his healthy happy self in a few days
But until then… there will be more cries, more tears,
And a least one episode of…
This Week in Science.
Some quick science news!
Mapping The Universe
From basic thermodynamics to galaxies & stars themselves, researchers are mapping the universe.
Snoozers aren’t losers
And here’s the study that proves it!
15th-century French painting
Depicting ancient stone tools
Theory Of Everything
Two papers in the past two weeks propose ideas to connect physics to biology in sweeping theories of evolution. But, are they anything new?
