  1. I’m always surprised by ‘science of X’ articles. Mostly because it starts out with the idea that X is possible. It looks weird.

    But yeah, bioluminescence is cool. I did a science project on it when I was a kid. And yeah, we should totally switch completely to metric.

    I hope you have a good summer, Siouxsie!
