If you’re new here, here’s a little about me: I’m a licensed geologist and hydrogeologist in Washington State. I am also a certified K-12 math and earth/space science educator in WA. Science communication is my passion.
Super happy and chill snowboarder dude who got the silver. He looks like he’s my age. What a blast.

There needs to be some serious accountability for the colossal harm to life these absolute demons have caused, and will cause. Life in prison is the moderate option.

Wow. Impressive.
China’s carbon emissions have remained flat for nearly two years, suggesting the country may be approaching its peak emissions. Behind this shift is an accelerated green transition and a restructuring of the nation’s energy mix. CGTN’s Jeff Moody has a closer look. #china

As I say here, there is no scientific justification to revoke the engagement finding. In fact, over the last 15+ yrs, the evidence of how climate change affects our health has only grown. Higher risk of allergies, dementia, fertility, heart disease, and death: that’s what’s on the line. @nature.org
There is No Scientific Justification to Revoke the Endangerment Finding
The U.S. EPA's decision to repeal the Endangerment Finding will limit the government's ability to regulate emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act.

The SAVE America Act would impose outrageous voter suppression requirements on American citizens.

One example: married women who take their spouse’s name & whose last name may not match their birth certificate. Do they not get to vote?

This bill is DOA in the Senate.

With the endangerment finding overturned, I sincerely hope a certain person dies of heat stroke.

The Trump administration is trying to give us dirtier air, more respiratory illnesses, more severe natural disasters, less efficient cars, and fewer clean energy jobs. The only winners here? Trump’s buddies in the C-suites of fossil fuel companies.

Fuentes then fantasizes about “breeding gulags”: “So just like Hitler imprisoned Gypsies, Jews, communists, you know, all of his political rivals, we have to do the same thing with women… They go to the breeding gulags. The good ones will be liberated. The bad ones will toil in the mines forever.”

Call your senators!
BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote.

The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.

Please read.
I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it.

I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.”

Yeah, after reading that case study I was like, I sure do hope our cats eat all of the bugs in the house. 🤮

Being pardoned by Trump is really all I need to know about the guy. Tells me there's some shady shit going on in the background.

In any case, folks, this didn't pass the House. Hopefully it won't pass the Senate but just in case..call your senators and demand they don't pass this!

I mean, by all means, vote your values. But how is this guy a Democrat? He has voted for impeaching Trump twice. But some GOP folks did, too. I mean, hell, this guy seems more Republican than Mitt Romney.
February 12, 2026 at 12:47 AM
He is one of the only Dems who doesn't support abortion rights. He also voted to repeal Biden era environmental protections. He's also one of the only Dems who supported ICE funding in January. He's for banning trans kids in sports. He's voted against legalizing cannabis.

"He was alleged to have accepted nearly $600,000 from the Azerbaijani government and a Mexican commercial bank in order to influence U.S. policy. He was pardoned by President Donald Trump in December 2025 before the case was brought to trial."

Ahh, a great example of an upstanding leader. 🙄

It's curious that the lone Dem holdout on the SAVE Act that just passed the House was Rep. Cuellar from Texas. Here's an entry from the Wikipedia page for him:

"In early May 2024, Cuellar was indicted on money laundering, bribery and conspiracy charges by a federal grand jury in Houston, Texas." 🧵

I’ve known Maura Healey a long time — I’m not surprised that she more than honored our Super Bowl bet, but we got an unexpected twist.

Well played, @massgovernor.bsky.social!

If you’ve been struggling with ear issues and mild neck pain for a little bit and are trying to figure out if they’re connected, definitely don’t read the article about the guy who went camping, got a bug stuck in his ear, and then all hell broke loose. There are more details but I’ll spare y’all.

Here are a few of the #WomenInSTEM we’ve highlighted in our career issue over the years. #IDWGIS
