If a human bites a Vampire then shouldn’t the Vampire turn back into a human? And while we’re at it, if a human bites a Zombie shouldn’t it cure the Zombie too? — PolitiTweet.org

I don't know anyone who drinks liquids from cups with holes in their bottoms. So you are describing a different world. — PolitiTweet.org

@cubosh If the arrow of time reversed, then so would the vocabulary describing the events. So I think we're good here. — PolitiTweet.org

If you watched the glass long enough (over days) you will see the level slowly drop as the water evaporates from its surface. That counts as half-empty. — PolitiTweet.org

Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson

@sum_prodigalson I would instead say, please continue pouring, it's only half-full. — PolitiTweet.org

Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson

If you are filling a glass and reach the halfway point, it’s half-full. If you are emptying a glass and reach the halfway point, it’s half-empty. No need to invoke your emotional state. — PolitiTweet.org

We talked about science in bad movies. Was a guffaw a minute. How I'll always remember him: Smart. Funny. Curious. With a childlike amusement of all that makes you laugh.

With a telescope, the Moon is best viewed during other phases, especially half-moon, in which the craters and mountains cast their longest shadows. Cool Lamp. — PolitiTweet.org

Saturday, April 16, 2022 Full Moon today — the first one after the March Equinox. The Sunday following that Full Moon is, by definition, Easter. This rule precludes solar eclipses from ever taking place on Easter Sunday. https://t.co/Vimo9ICIpO — PolitiTweet.org

@beatmurda The previews have me greatly worried. But It’s nonetheless on my list. Stay tuned. — PolitiTweet.org

RT @MikeyMarie3: @neiltyson @NCAA Maybe it's to reduce Canadian confusion. "N-C-A, eh?" ..."Eh!!" 😆 — PolitiTweet.org

Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson

Not that anybody inquired, but to say the individual letters “N-C-A-A” (as in @NCAA) uses fewer syllables than to say “N-C-double-A”. So to utter “double-A” does not save you time. — PolitiTweet.org

@SupernovaStuff @MoonfallFilm The Sun is off to the right. Illiuminaing the right-facinig crescent of the Moon, the right-facing crescent of Earth, and the right-facing parts of the Space Station. All is well in the world of optics. — PolitiTweet.org

A reminder… Eighty years ago the city of Leningrad was under siege for 900 days. The Nazis severed all supply chains into the city and pummeled the infrastructure, ultimately leaving a million Russian civilians dead. Meanwhile… https://t.co/uNtf5trk7W https://t.co/RSmQ54AZqJ — PolitiTweet.org

Last I checked, the rest of the Universe was in good shape. It’s Earth that’s got all the problems. — PolitiTweet.org

Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson

The exact Rainbow any of us sees is entirely our own — a personal, yet communal gift from the laws of optics. That’s why Rainbows are **always** face-on. You’ve never seen one at an angle, which forever protects the Pot of Gold hidden at it base. https://t.co/I8jBXIopVf — PolitiTweet.org

By the 1920s the mysterious, Green-emitting space element "nebulium was ID'ed as oxygen, but behaving oddly in the rarefied conditions of space. — PolitiTweet.org

Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson

Mid-19th century, a mysterious element was discovered in space nebulae. It emits deep Green, and was dubbed “nebulium." https://t.co/sVPHe1sQez — PolitiTweet.org

Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson

Rarefied gas just might be Irish: The element oxygen, in Aurora and in the near-vacuum conditions of space, radiates pure Green. https://t.co/Pc8zXMy4JH — PolitiTweet.org

Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson

Stars are not Irish: The laws of radiative physics conspire in such a way that there are no Green stars in the Universe. They come in three basic colors: Reddish, White, & Blueish. — PolitiTweet.org

Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson

We think of US paper money as being Green. But face-side ink is primarily black. So instead of "Greenbacks" it could legitimately be called "Blackfronts" https://t.co/7XUqODregB — PolitiTweet.org

Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson

Curiously, light-loving Green plants reject the Sun's Green light, reflecting it back at you, which is why they look Green. https://t.co/7iUrQHTRno — PolitiTweet.org

Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson

The "Green” movement might be misnamed. Experiments show that increased CO2 promotes photosynthesis, making plants grow faster. — PolitiTweet.org

Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson

Odd that drivers of fuel efficient cars often get more Green-praise than people who chose to live where they can walk to work. — PolitiTweet.org
