I usually prefer my weekly science blogs to be my summaries of recent science news or old (but interesting) science phenomena. However, I happened to stumble upon The Particle Zoo’s website this evening and, though I’ve seen the website before (and I’m sure you all have too), Strange Quark is so freaking adorable and all this stuff is so fantastically awesome that I must dedicate this week’s blog to:

The Particle Zoo plushies (which has expanded quite a bit since I last visited, so it may be worth checking out again even if you’ve already seen it) and a map of the relationships between the particles (the main website is pretty snazzy, too).

Side note completely unrelated to blog content above: desire for tattoo = strong.
