Here's proof (as a song, introducing this AMA)

Hey, I'm Oli, I mostly make novelty songs about the climate crisis, which you can find herehttps://olifro.st/.

You’ll also find my past projects, which have featured everywhere from UK Parliament to Britain’s Got Talent, BBC to Fox News, in art shows, and on bins.

Ask me anything! Have you always wondered what it's like to play the recorder for Simon Cowell? Now's your chance…

If you wanted to see what I'm doing next, it’d be great if you subscribed to my YouTube – I’ve got the smallest audience there, but the work looks better. Or follow me anywhere else.

I’m Tim. I write a blog called Wait But Why, where I write/illustrate long posts about a lot of things—the future, relationships, aliens, whatever. In 2016 I turned my attention to a new topic: why my society sucked. Tribalism was flaring up, mass shaming was back into fashion, politicians were increasingly clown-like, public discourse was a battle of one-dimensional narratives. So I decided to write a post about it, which then became a post series, which then became a book called What’s Our Problem? Ask me about the book or anything else!

Get the book here

When I’m procrastinating, I post stuff on Twitter and Instagram.

UPDATE: 9 hours and 80 questions later, I'm calling it quits so I can go get shat on by an infant. HUGE thank you for coming and asking so many great questions!

EDIT: Thank you so much for your questions. That is all the time we have for today, but we will check back to answer any big, lingering questions later on.

Our story “American Icon” is one of nine stories that take an in-depth look at the AR-15’s rise to dominance in the U.S. gun industry, how the gun’s bullets are particularly devastating to the human body, and how it has divided a nation and more. Ask us anything.

The AR-15 thrives in times of tension and tragedy. Our story explains how it came to dominate the marketplace – and loom so large in the American psyche: https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/interactive/2023/ar-15-america-gun-culture-politics/?utm_campaign

Ask us anything.

Hi Reddit! The Association of Polar Early Career Scientists (APECS) is here to promote Polar Week!

APECS ​is an international and interdisciplinary organization for undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, early faculty members, educators​,​ and others with interests in ​Earth's ​Polar Regions ​(Antarctica and the Arctic) ​​as well as the wider cryosphere. ​Our goals include creating opportunities for the development of innovative, international, and interdisciplinary collaborations among current early career polar researchers as well as recruiting, retaining​,​ and promoting the next generation of polar enthusiasts.​

APECS members participating in this AMA are early-career polar scientists in a variety of research areas with experience working in the polar regions in remote field locations and in some native communities, studying everything from sea- ice interactions with charismatic animals​ ​like​ ​penguins.​ Today members from APECS Norway, APECS Portugal and APECS Netherlands will be answering questions related to their research, what it’s like to work in the polar regions, or even how to get into polar research.

We will be answering questions today 30th of March from 9:00 am(GMT+2) till 20:00 pm (GMT+2)!!

Participants:

Eva Chamorro: PhD Candidate in zooplankton dynamics in high latitude ecosystems at the department of Arctic Marine Biology at the UiT.

Stefan Thiele: Postdoc in microbial ecology, working on bacteria and archaea in the Arctic at UiB.

Danielle Grant: PhD Candidate in paleogenomics and marine ecosystems of the past at The Norwegian Research Centre (NORCE) and the UiB.

Kyle Mayers: Senior researcher at NORCE. My research interests are in understanding trophic dynamics, from viruses to zooplankton in oceanic and coastal marine ecosystems.
