Sandra Stuckey: What is it about Mercury that makes Newton's laws of motion fail in this instance while working perfectly well elsewhere in the solar system? She says as an author, podcaster and generally someone who makes his voice heard in public, do you ever get criticisms or negative reactions that feel distressing? And if so, how do you cope with that? "I'm not a confrontational positive kind of guy. I'm a confrontation avoidant kind of guy," she says.

Welcome to the May 2023 Ask Me Anything episode of Mindscape! These monthly excursions are funded by Patreon supporters (who are also the ones asking the questions). We take questions asked by Patreons, whittle them down to a more manageable number — based primarily on whether I have anything interesting to say about them, not whether the questions themselves are good — and sometimes group them together if they are about a similar topic. Enjoy!
