Umm, wasn't Mike Johnson at the Capitol on January 6th? Didn't he lead the objection to the certification of the election?

He thinks Portland, OR is the most threatening? WTH?

Halloween is almost here, and the newest Moonlit March painting is nearly complete! 🎃 While I put the finishing touches on it, here’s a peek back at where the series began.

A group of animals including a pair of toads, a black cat, a bat, a snail, and a mother opossum and her children, march through a moonlit forest.

Voting must happen every election and voting must be harm reduction because that is all gov is, harm reduction. It can be MORE harm reduction, wherein we get wonderful new laws passed or LESS harm reduction, wherein we keep others from killing ppl and being fascists. But that is its purpose.

I was thrilled to help to excavate more of this huge Oxfordshire dinosaur track site earlier this year. The BBC's new article has a ton of fantastic images and graphics that bring the tracks to life, including a moment where a sauropod paused to... do something?

Richard Butler @richardjbutler.bsky.social · 1d

Back in June we were back on the Oxfordshire “dinosaur highway”, excavating more dinosaur tracks with our teams from the Universities of Birmingham, Oxford & Liverpool John Moores. The BBC have a story out today about our work at the site:

www.bbc.co.uk/news/resourc...

In the footsteps of giants - BBC News

One of the longest sets of dinosaur footprints in the world has been discovered in a limestone quary near Bicester, in Oxfordshire, England.

Free version if paywalled. These issues, occurring nationwide, are unlikely to break down to simple "left = bad" explanations but are part of a broader trend that extends beyond the classroom. E.g. tech is pushing us toward an oral, not written, culture. www.msn.com/en-us/news/u...

It's been a great weekend for birds. :) Thread incoming. First up, a Rusty Blackbird strolling through the shallow inlet along the pier, picking bugs out of the algae. Its supercilium (eyebrow stripe) was so bright, I thought at first glance it was a waterthrush. Didn't expect that. Lifer! #birds

This was a really cool exhibit overall but I’m glad they are updating it!!

Ben Miller @extinctmonsters.bsky.social · 4d

Some photos from my last walk through the Field's Africa hall, which closed forever last week to make way for a new version. 🧵

Colorful, abstracted mural of a cityscape surrounds the exhibit entrance. A hanging sign says Welcome to Senegal and to Dakar...gateway to Africa (Ministry of Tourism)

Large exhibit space with cutout camel resting alongside water jugs and a realistic date palm replica. Immediate area is tan, walls and ceiling are sky blue.

Africa-shaped panel with header "Art and Society." Replica bellows in a corner with cases of metal artifacts.

Suggestion of street scene with storefronts and life-sized cutouts of people. A realistic baobab tree behind them.

BREAKING: Scientists have found wild #wolfdogs roaming the mountains of Greece.

In nature, wolves and dogs rarely interbreed. This is fascinating.

An Incredible Wolf-Dog Hybrid Has Emerged from the Mountains of Greece

Wolves and dogs don’t normally breed in the wild, largely because wolves are so territorial. But an exception has been found.

Newest #paleoart is Hesperosuchus running off with a stolen Coelophysis egg. Not often you see the little pseudosuchian preying on the dinosaur. Figured I’d switch it up. #watercolor #sciart
