So there's a new title on the nonbinary circuit: Mg.
The original Tumblr member who posted it said:
'since mrs, ms, and mr are all descended from the latin word magister, i propose the gender neutral version should be mg, short for "mage"'
A question for #nonbinary people:
Hypothetically assuming the go-to nonbinary title is Mg, how would you want it to be said out loud in front of your name? ("Mg FirstName LastName")

Dust devils are rotating columns of dust that form around low-pressure air pockets, and are common on Earth.
But this one is imaged on the surface of #Mars.
This Martian dust devil formed on the dust-covered, volcanic plains of Amazonis Planitia.
The dust devil is bright, and its core is roughly 50 meters across.
The dark streak on the ground behind the dust devil is its shadow.
The length of the shadow suggests the plume of rotating dust rises about 650 meters into the atmosphere.
