We've got a thread about astronomy specifically, and hey space is cool but there's a lot of other science shit to talk about that's not space! Rather than post SciAm articles I find interesting in random threads, I'm making a thread where we can talk about all sorts of cool science shit. And how gay our research shows Butters is.
So, to start things off I found this little blurb about how conflict tends to escalate interesting. As is so often the case with us silly humans, our perceptions of who's slighting us are often completely irrational.

My research indicates Butters possesses gay in staggeringly huge quantities.

what's fascinating is that my research indicates Butters is approaching levels of gayness that we previously thought were impossible
We've all heard of the "gay radius", or "gaydius", a zone around a person of such extreme gayness it actually turns others in the area gay, but Butters has apparently evolved a form of gay telepathy, or "gaylepethy", which allows him to turn others gay with the power of his mind. Researchers predict the next stage in his gayvolution would be gaylekenisis, which will allow him to give his sexual partners handjobs without actually touching them.
I read an intelligent design website that I wish I could find again. They stated how light was a double standard for scientists, because they wanted you to believe something existed that you couldn't see.
Their argument was that light is invisible. All light.

You know, including visible light.
just those damn scientists trying to confuse us again
visible light, how absurd

My future mother-in-law spent fifteen minutes trying to convince me that there is a qualitative difference between macro and micro evolution.

I'm not totally convinced of that.

if you're Australian, you know who he is, but everyone else should learn.
Written 27 books on all sorts of fun science shit.
Won the Ig Noble prize for a study paper which explains why lint always ends up in your bellybutton and why it's always blue-grey.
He's got degrees in Physics and Maths, Biomedical Engineering, Internal Medicine and Surgery and has worked as a physicist, tutor, film-maker, car mechanic, labourer, and as a medical doctor at the Children’s Hospital in Sydney.
He does some great podcasts every week from radio shows in Australia and Britain where people call up and ask him to explain something sciency and he either explains it in a way anyone can understand, or he tells a wonderful story about the subject to distract you from the fact that he can't explain it.
Also a long running (almost 30 years) radioshow/podcast called Great Moments in Science which is always a fun listen.
Last year he got married under midnight sun in the Arctic circle, then had his honeymoon in the midday darkness of Antarctica. Awesome.
He's totally excellent and worth adding to your list of podcasts.
ok so lets say you have a box. And then I have a box. Each box has a glove in it, what are the odds that I have the left glove? or you have the left glove? What if we go to oppsite ends of the world and then open our boxes? if you open the box first and you have the right glove, then you know I have the left, but what if its not static, what if the second you opened the box the glove inside determined which glove it was and then my glove automatically changed to the oppsite of your glove? I'd like to take a minuet just sit right there, and I'll tell you all about how I became the prince of a town called Bel-Air.
We had a book in my high school about Quantum Mechanics, in 4 years I was the only person to check it out and I never really understood it that well. I might now adays though.

Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.

that's one of the better animations i've seen.

but now instead of science I am stuck on the threat of the milky pirate.

Only Batman could possibly do this. Anyone else's explanation would only be lies and pie charts.
Mysst, it is that video. His hands are bananas. Beware the milky pirate. And then the monkey gang, oh my.
