Jimmy Kimmel should have stuck to acceptable comments, like suggesting that homeless people be executed

Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts.

From left to right are Shannon W. Lucid, Margaret Rhea Seddon, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Judith A. Resnik, Anna L. Fisher, and Sally K. Ride. NASA selected all six women as their first female astronaut candidates in January 1978.

I went beach seining in Florida and we saw a seahorse and a mantis shrimp and a brittle star 😊
One of the most amazing things about social media is being able to learn about other cultures.

Tell me, how does your family celebrate World Seagrass Day?

My favourite was having dinner with a bunch of Oxford ornithologists. "Braveheart was RUINED for me about halfway through. Everyone knows black-headed gulls didn't nest inland in Scotland until the 1950s"
Every time I see Marines called "soldiers," my face contorts in rage, and I'm taken right out of the movie/show. Once you know pretty much anything about the military, much of that stuff is unwatchable.

Books that I would recommend to others.

John Steinbeck was America's voice of conscience during times of strife and economic depression. Here, with his close friend Doc Ricketts, is a book on the ecology of a place and its connections to history, science, ethics, and ourselves.

Reminder to new users here:

Greenland sharks, which can live to be over 400 years old and aren’t considered reproductively mature adults until they’re in their 160s, eat polar bears.

Ah, I love bsky for Learning Things. #geography and #demographics
alright here’s a fun one:
80% of the US population—about 260 million people live East of this line around the 98th meridian. 60% of the population west of the lives in California, leaving just ~9% of the population to populate the vast area of the west.

This is such a fantastically composed and historically meaningful final photo of Ingenuity, taken by Perseverence before it drove away, that I want to make it my phone background but also I don't want to cry every time I look at my phone screen. 🥺
