Trending science fiction, technology, and scientific developments on social media.
From Passive Learner to Active Creator
We live in a world saturated with information. Every day, we’re bombarded with podcasts, articles, online courses, and social media posts promising to teach us how to succeed. For years, I devoured this content, convinced that accumulating knowledge was the key to unlocking my potential. But despite filling my brain with strategies, hacks, and inspirational quotes, my life remained stagnant. The truth hit me hard: Consuming without creating is like stocking a library but never writing a book.

From Knowledge Hoarder to Action Taker
We live in an age of endless information. Want to learn how to start a business? There’s a YouTube tutorial for that. Need motivation? Plug into a podcast. Craving self-improvement? The internet is a buffet of e-books, courses, and “life hacks.” But here’s the uncomfortable truth: Most of us are addicted to consuming—not creating. We mistake scrolling for strategizing, liking for learning, and bookmarking for building.

Why We Dance: . Content Warning. AI-Generated.
How rhythm and movement became humanity’s first shared vocabulary—and still bind us today. Prologue: The First Dance In a Spanish cave called Cova de l’Or, 9,000-year-old paintings depict figures with arms linked, mid-sway. Archaeologists found charred drums made of mammoth bones nearby. Long before words like love or war existed, humans danced—to mourn, to pray, to celebrate the hunt. Today, in clubs, weddings, and TikTok videos, we still move to the same primal call. Dance isn’t just art; it’s a biological imperative.

As Movie Viewing Changes, What Should We Hope for?
Last night I was happy that I obtained access to the viewing of the recent Oscar's awards ceremony. I have always enjoyed watching the fashions on the red carpet and seeing if the host is going to be funny or basic. Conan O'Brien hosted the 2025 Oscar's, and his sense of humor had me falling off my chair in roaring laughter so I was pleased. I didn't see in any of the glimpses of the audience the same laughter I was experiencing, (which must have been somewhat disappointing for Conan) but what can you do? Humor is subjective.

NASA Has Made Its Decision Here Is the Most Realistic Sci-Fi Movie to Represent the Future
NASA Has Made Its Decision Here Is the Most Realistic Sci-Fi Movie to Represent the Future In 2011 NASA compiled a list of the most scientifically accurate science fiction films ever made. Among them Gattaca (1997) stood out as the most realistic portrayal of the future. More than a decade later its vision of a society dominated by genetic engineering remains hauntingly relevant. Science fiction has long been a genre that oscillates between pure fantasy and insightful predictions about the future. While some films rely heavily on visual spectacle and improbable scenarios others manage to balance scientific accuracy with compelling narratives. Recognizing this NASA brought together experts from its Jet Propulsion Laboratory to evaluate science fiction films based on their scientific plausibility. The results placed Gattaca at the top followed by Contact (1997) and Metropolis (1927). Meanwhile blockbusters like Armageddon (1998) and 2012 (2009) were dismissed as scientifically inaccurate. What sets Gattaca apart from other science fiction films is its eerily plausible vision of a world where genetic engineering dictates social hierarchy. Directed by Andrew Niccol the film presents a future in which children are no longer conceived naturally but designed in laboratories. Parents select desirable traits for their offspring ensuring that they are free from hereditary diseases and genetic imperfections. Those who are born naturally without genetic enhancements are considered inferior and are systematically denied opportunities. This dystopian world is not ruled by artificial intelligence or extraterrestrial forces but by the very science that humanity is actively developing today.
