    As I put on the section of this show with the Nile Rodgers interview, this excellent woman has gone straight into my “hall of heroes”, despite not knowingly being aware of her before! Also 🙌 from a neurodiverse cousin, only my secret superpowers come from ADHD and ASD instead of dyslexia 😄 (also, perfect outfit - the dress print is hella cute and appropriate, and the sleeves are in one of my favourite colours! 💙💚)

      Though it’s so interesting to hear her talk about her powers of 3D spatial awareness as part of her dyslexia - this is very much something I really struggle with. I can literally get lost going somewhere familiar on a route I’ve taken many times before, despite having a GPS device in my hand! I’m really good at spotting patterns, making connections, and logical reasoning, but anything to do with mental rotation and spatial understanding is such a difficulty for me! There are absolutely similarities between dyslexia and ADHD (and other neurodiversities), and I think the underlying brain and body systems involved in both(/all) are probably connected to each other, but it’s so fascinating to hear about the different ways other people’s brains work, as much as it is to find people whose brains work in a similar way to you 😍

    The best fact ever, is that every molecule in your body was forged in the core of a star billions of years ago. Then those molecoles assmbled themselves exactly in such a way that they created, not only something alive, but also sentient and thinking. ”Thinking”... projecting images, places, time, space, concepts, hopes, dreams, ...questions about the universe. We literally are the universe, trying to understand itself.
    This is not religion, not magic, or mumbo jumbo. It’s fact.

    first round of applause ever for a pulsar. Yes, pulsars - humanity appreciates you. I don't think foregrounding "dyslexia" is the most important thing about this astro-physicist, however. She's fairly unique in covering both spectroscopy, but also research into wind speeds regarding climate change. People generally speak about the former; the latter is probably more interesting.

      As an ADHDer (but no dyslexia), I can definitely see that (though I can only dream of such ability to be as engaging as her 😍)! The various different neurodivergencies often cluster together, so it’s definitely not out of the realm of possibility to have more than one 😊

    Very insignificant?
    Perhaps humans are, but everything is made from the same sub-atomic particles so everything is basically same. It is life that is a 'miracle'. So it makes things very democratically equal and important. Would the largest star in the universe be any more important that the tiniest particle. It should make us much less arrogant. No?

    I'm dying to know what "Banged"? If nothing existed before, then where did the stuff that made up the thing that "Banged" come from? And if time didn't exist until the "Big Bang" then when exactly did that thing that banged come into existence and how long did that process take? I really want a REAL scientist to answer . It takes a level of 'faith' that I just can't wrap my mind around....that something of a rock or star thing, came into existence from nowhere and nothing and created all the other stars and planets, and then got super creative with Earth. We aren't alone.
    But here's an explanation I can believe....that there are invisible spirits instead of flesh spirits. We have the Bible to teach us all about their relationship to us. In the past they moved among us and reproduced with human women until the Great Flood. But their sons were unnatural and could not reproduce. They are the "men of old" who are the gods and heroes written of in ancient times and immortalized in mythology. Yet, they no longer exist, humans still glorify them and keep them popular. The spirit fathers of the those nephilim left the earth to avoid the flood. Jump to the future, the rebels were condemned to the Earth in their invisible state. But they are so much powerful than us and they know SO much about us that they can make us see and believe all sorts of things that aren't real...Like that they're Aliens. There's a reason we know they exist, but can't put our fingers on it. But the Bible tells the whole story. The really exciting part is that there is an entire future of good changes ahead for us after those invisible criminals are sentenced and destroyed for all time. Never to roam the Earth influencing humans to be self destructive. Oh yes! There is very powerful life in the universe and we are not alone.
