You might be thinking, "CPSC, does a dry Christmas tree really burn that much faster than a well-watered tree?"

In Icelandic folklore Jólakötturinn, the Yule Cat, comes to eat those who do not wear their new clothes for Christmas. In this image, you can see somebody did not put on their new Christmas sweater. Or perhaps even more unfortunately, no one got them one!

It is legitimately hilarious that they couldn't figure out what to do with the "The" before JFK's name so it looks even more tacked on.

I embedded with Stephen Schneider at NCAR for Ice Time (1989). I met Walt Roberts, NCAR’s 1st director.
This is a fucking travesty & so stupid that the perpetrators achieve the full Ivins: they need to be watered twice a day.
The GOP/Trump are destroying what it used to mean to be a civilization.

NSF is about to dismantle NCAR at Russell Vought's direction to protect the fossil fuel industry. It's hard to communicate just how much NCAR does, so let's take a look: I've never worked at NCAR, and I've worked with NCAR researchers once ever. What scientific discoveries has NCAR made possible? 👇

To put my rage another way: if an adversary wanted to destroy America, they would do exactly what Vought is doing here.
