    Both details and fundamentals. And when the fundamentals get questioned things get dramatic. In like, an irritating way that reminds me of religious zealotry, uuuuuuugh

    The "where is 95% of all the mass!?" seems a bit more dramatic in the grand scheme of things though, damn.

    I witnessed grown adults outright bully teenage and young adult interns and grad students for presenting solid evidence that challenges paradigms (you know, like how we advance our understanding of science…?) but I can’t imagine it’s much better if everyone regardless of experience is just staring into a void of conflicting observations and nobody knows what the fuck any of it means

      you know, like how we advance our understanding of science…?

      One eulogy at a time, if you are of the Kuhn persuasion.
