Since I have a lot of new followers, let me start by introducing myself. I am a paleontologist, geologist, and data scientist. My passion is exploring geo/paleo references in pop culture. I have several projects that involve just that like my Drunk on Geology series: www.drunkongeology.com
Submitted a science-pop culture article to a mag about finding a real location for the island in Lord of the Flies based on the novel and science and their response was essentially: why don’t you go publish that on your own site and build a following first. 😫 yea dude, thanks 😒 (looks at last 20yrs)

Reading The Godfather does greatly enhance the movie. The are so may minor plot threads that the movie brings up and just drops or come out of nowhere that the book explains in detail. For that I would recommend it.

Book #197 on my #305GreatestBooks list is The Godfather by Mario Puzo. I ripped through this one and generally enjoyed it, however the domestic abuse and sidelining of any of the female characters as nonentities turned me off. So, overall I can’t recommend it.

The next #Geology Of The National Parks Through Pictures is for Devils Tower NM. DYK that the tower is often thought to be the core of a volcano (the neck), however the jointing pattern of the columns form perpendicular to cooling direction meaning…

Bills room update: wall drywall is up! Next step is the ceiling (ceiling should have been done first but with the box out I figured the walls would make the room feel done faster). #homerenovation #homeremodel #basementrenovation #diyproject

While starting to work on the basement back in 2023, the wife tagged one of the walls that were newly put up, however that specific wall had to wait to be finished until other stuff got done until today when a piece of drywall went up over the ever expanding note. #homeremodel #diyproject

The biggest problem I have with AI is: what is the endgame for all this? Musk has come out and stated that they’ll be no need for retirements because in 10 years AI will cover all our needs. But what then? Massive starvation from universal unemployment? What is the end goal?

Not only did ICE outright murder someone (an American citizen if that matters to you) they then immediately proceeded to go 3 blocks and pepper spray students at a high school. School there is canceled for the rest of the week out of concern for their students. This is what you voted for.

I have been looking for these for MONTHS and I finally found them in stores!!!! I even contemplated buying them on the Oreo website but shipping was $10. Note: in milk is the preferred method of delivery for these.
