“Are you the branch manager?”
“Yes I am, how can I help you?”
“I would like two branches, please.”
“How would you like that?”
“Two big sticks, four little sticks.”

"You're spending taxpayer dollars to drink milk shirtless in a hot tub with Kid Rock. Somehow you think that's a better public health message than informing the public about the benefits of vaccines. Really? -- Rep. Linda Sanchez to RFK Jr

A vibrant color studio portrait of Carolyn Widney Greider, the American molecular biologist and Nobel laureate who discovered the enzyme telomerase and shared the 2009 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for revealing how chromosomes are protected from shortening during cell division. In this warm, professional head-and-shoulders photograph, she faces the camera directly with a bright, genuine smile that reveals her teeth and lights up her eyes, conveying warmth, intelligence, and quiet confidence. Her shoulder-length, wavy blonde hair frames her face softly. She wears a bright turquoise ribbed knit cardigan with a draped collar over a black top, accented by small blue stud earrings. The background is a soft, out-of-focus gradient of blues and greens that keeps the focus entirely on her approachable presence. The overall composition is clean and intimate. The mood is one of joyful accomplishment and scientific dedication, powerfully symbolizing Greider’s groundbreaking contributions to molecular biology, our understanding of aging, cancer, and cellular immortality, and her role as a trailblazing woman in STEM.

Nurses haven't worn caps at least since the mid-80s.
Seriously, that's who it looks like.
One more comment: I'm sure both the Apollo and Artemis missions so far did not get there with a "move fast and break things" ethic.
