I smile no matter what photo I see of her, I just love this amazing lady and her outlook on life.  I feel like a stalker but it’s true (not the stalker part, but the loving her outlook on life part)

@omgbubblesomg I just wanted to say this here b/c I thought it was interesting but I also didn’t wanna be That Guy derailing my own post BUT…

There’s an interesting intersection where astrology (and astronomy because they used to be the same thing), “magic”, and religion collide with the development of medicine. Europe and the Middle East during the Early Modern period especially was full of “spells” designed to cure ailments and make cucumbers grow and all kinds of neat stuff. In a lot of ways it was a precursor to actual scientific practice in things like medicine, botony, and astronomy.

But of course that was then and this is now and astrology and witchcraft and religion aren’t science.
