My 7 year old can't go a day without saying it. But I have taught her & the older one to shout "42" in reply to anyone that says it. Unfortunately I think that joke is completely lost on even the teachers in that school.

Going back to school tomorrow and hopefully 6 7 has lost some of it's appeal to
the pupils. Saying that I love this take on it. #DouglasAdams #LifeTheUniverseandEverything

Should Physicists Study the Question: What is Life? - Slashdot An astrophysicist at the University of Rochester writes that "many" of his colleagues in physics "have come to believe that a mystery is unfolding in every microbe, animal, and human." And it's a mystery that: - "Challenges basic assumptions physicists have held for centuries" - "May even help re...

Life’s mystery deepens! 🤯 Physicists rethink universe's core, seeking answers in complexity—& even AI. ✨ #LifeTheUniverseAndEverything

The small grave of the author. A simple rectangular, slate grey gravestone with lots of gifts left behind by admirers: the calculation 6 x 9 = 42 in red on a white oval, several mugs and glasses with pens and paintbrushes, a grey metal (I think) half ball. And a white towel. All referencing his works.

Hayley Atwell on theatre, Tom Cruise and the tabloids: ‘I’ve reached the point where I’m OK if I’m not liked’ From shooting guns in Mission: Impossible films to appearing in a new West End production of Shakespeare, the actor has proved there’s nothing she can’t do. But, she says, there are now a few things s...

“I always think of that #JoanDidion quote: ‘I have already lost contact with a couple of people I used to be,’” she explains. “There’s often this narrative that, even if respectful and accurate to different times [of life], is quite reductive.”

The real answer isn’t a number. It’s in rejecting these convenient truths, rethinking what we follow, and reclaiming balance—not as obedience, but as liberation. So, is your 42 freeing you—or keeping you in line?

A close-up of a metal art construction that looks like a part of an industrial building. Through a circular opening in the centre is a view of a window with open slatted blinds and blurred cars beyond. Standing on the sculpture within the opening is a tiny black humanoid cat. It's Reggie!
