This unique-looking purple carrot sneered at me, with its best jack o’lantern impression, before I ate it as an after-work snack. 🎃

I'm still furious at Microsoft for trying to force hundreds of millions of perfectly good computers into the landfill so they can stuff our online lives with surveillance, AI slop and ads.

Here’s a really cool-looking cathedral down beside the river in downtown Saskatoon.

Good morning. Trees in Lacombe Alberta Canada are looking good with a little bit of new snow on them this morning.

I’m most at home exploring rocky crags in Northwest Nevada, and Canyon Wren are a favorite bird to find. They live their lives hanging off the sides of cliffs…and this one’s prized slot canyon territory has the most incredible lichen. #birds

Today I spoke with Greg Bovino, a top U.S. Border Patrol chief, as he led dozens of feds in military gear through downtown Chicago.
He said they were arresting folks based on “how they look.”
“How do they look compared to, say, you?” he said, referring to me.

As a US Atty, I prosecuted and oversaw police excessive force cases. We took them seriously because they were serious abuses of power. What we're seeing now is the outbreak of an epidemic & instead of being condemned by fed'l law enforcement leaders, it seems to be tolerated if not encouraged.

spreading lies about immigrants voting, and openly mainstreaming terrorist propaganda. This isn’t just another unhinged rant, it’s dangerous. A president is feeding white supremacist violence and calling it truth. He’s not hiding it. And if we don’t call it out, more people will get hurt.

What the actual fuck is Trump even talking about? He just went on Truth Social to declare the racist “Great Replacement” conspiracy is “no longer a theory.” This is the same extremist garbage that inspired the Buffalo and El Paso mass shootings. He’s recycling message-board rants like their policy,

We had a smoke-assisted #sunset tonight, after what likely was our final 30° day of the summer. Before today, we had been nicely free of #smokehaze for approximately 3 weeks!

Cyclops coronal hole now facing Earth. We may see minor geomagnetic storming in the next few days along with fast solar wind. Combine that with some rowdy active regions rotating on the east limb, and we may have an exciting week of space weather coming up!

Here’s a video I shot while we flew over the confluence where the Pine River joins the larger #PeaceRiver, filmed yesterday at 1:10PM. This was very shortly after taking off from Fort St John.

I was very pleased with what I found at Big Kinfe #ProvincialPark, in Alberta’s Battle River Valley, SW of Forestburg AB. The footage is from yesterday at 6:45PM.
