Much of western Washington's recent geology has been dominated by giant ice sheets stretching from the Canadian Rockies to central Washington. This ice gouged out the Salish Sea, Puget Sound, and carved up the rest of the landscape. Port Townsend sits on a peninsula made up of the junk giant glaciers left behind. This is typically sandstone, gravel, and mud but weird stuff starts happening when the giant glacier meets the ocean and starts to melt. There's lots of cool geology in Port Townsend, once you know where to look!

Hello!
If you’re interested in science and science communication but feel daunted, my friend just started a YouTube channel! He is planning a series of educational videos on understanding science writing in a fun way :)
He’s only posted one video, but plans to do a whole series and more. You can check out the video here:

Why Low Serotonin Doesn't Actually Cause Depression
youtube
Since the chemical imbalance theory was first described in 1965 by Harvard psychiatrist Joseph Schildkraut, depression has been described and perceived as a condition caused by low serotonin or a serotonin deficiency.
SSRIs, often our first-line treatment for depression, were believed to block the reuptake of serotonin in the brain... therefore, correcting the brain's chemical balance and easing the symptoms of depression.
But things don't seem to work this way...
In this video, I examine the latest research regarding serotonin and its role in depression and explain why the chemical imbalance theory of depression (first described in 1965 by Prof Joseph Schildkraut) is an outdated model that misleads the public and does more harm than it does good.

Hadn't heard this before. I have grey eyes, but also Central Heterochromia (more than one color) because they also have yellow starbursts around the pupil. I also have Tetrachromacy, which allows me to see a wider spectrum of colors than average, but I don't know if there's any connection between the two. Both apparently super rare, probably even more so together.

While it's easy to mistake this outcrop for the Painted Hills, this is actually older rock of a very similar origin. To summarize, this red claystone is a geologic library of ancient climate. The various minerals and microfossils found in this red clay tell a story of a time when Oregon was a volcano dominated subtropical rainforest. This is rock older than the Cascade Mountains! What exactly can we learn from it? Find out on BetterGeology!

So apparently on December 11th NASA tested using lasers to send information from space to Earth and this was the video they used:

The first video to be sent from space to Earth via laser is of an orange tabby cat chasing a laser pointer. His name? Taters.
