Highest Canadian nerd achievement UNLOCKED I'M SO EXCITED!!!!
QUIRKS AND QUARKS!!!!!!!!
And that was all because of Mastodon, thanks all! (Especially @mayintoronto whose comment got a Quirks and Quarks producer to get in touch with me via BlueSky-Fedi bridge. Wild. WILD.)

I wish I got to go on Quirks and Quarks and talk about a less depressing topic, but hey, this is SUCH a great opportunity to teach a *lot* of people in Canada about the terrible things that are happening in orbit, and in the upper atmosphere, and on the ground due to the wildly unregulated commercialization of orbit.

I just sent probably the most pretentious email I've ever sent in my life to some colleagues: "I'd love to meet up for lunch! But my interview with Bob McDonald for Quirks and Quarks might get scheduled at that time."
(AAAAHHHH!!! SO EXCITED!!!)

I just did my pre-interview for Quirks and Quarks. I am slightly less excited now, just because the pre-interview made it clear how completely fucking depressing this interview is going to be!
I have nothing good to say. I have no concrete actions for people to take. All I have are predictions about how unsafe, destructive, and environmentally catastrophic Reflect Orbital will be.
I sure hope I get a chance to work in something about how incredible the unpolluted night sky is, at least? Ooof.

The stars are still there, behind the clouds, satellites and light pollution, waiting for us.

Just got an email from a astronomer colleague who got asked by their local CBC station to do an interview tomorrow. "Do you know anything about Reflect Orbital?"
Hahah, sorry dude, it's sort of my fault that you have to talk about it. The campaign to reach out to journalists to educate the public about how terrible Reflect Orbital is is definitely working!

@box464 😆 I once sat near a young woman on a flight with a big sized smartphone with full brightness on… it was impossible to miss what she was doing. The amount of actions it took to add specific stickers, animations and text (with certain fonts) to an Instagram Story convinced me then and there that the argument « the Fediverse is too difficult for normies » is just a lazy, tired old trope.
If there’s a will, there’s a way.
