It's an actual game plan on the right. They use it for book bans as well. They start with something easy: no porn in libraries. That hooks in the low information folks. Then you slowly broaden the scope until you're yanking any YA that violates Christian nationalism.
one of many parallels between anti-vaxxers & those who oppose gender-affirming care: they start by pretending they have a very specific concern (MMR vaccine, puberty blockers, etc), but once given any sway or say on the matter, they quickly strive to eliminate all of it
Kennedy's zombie ACIP panel just voted to restrict hepatitis B vaccine for newborns. Experts say it will harm children for no reason. www.ms.now/news/rfk-cdc...

"'Do no harm' is a moral imperative. We are doing harm by changing this wording. And I vote no."

This holiday season, In case you were not aware; tulips, lillies, cyclamen, holly, mistletoe and poinsettia are toxic to cats and dogs; lilies and cyclamen are especially deadly for cats. Please be advised, I do not want anyone to lose a beloved pet just because they werent warned!

"All is lost" narratives are popular because people generally do not want to take action. Taking action is tiring so if all is lost, you are off the hook. Nothing is more seductive than not having to do anything.

Winter is THE best time for spotting evergreen ferns, clubmosses etc. Don't stop botanising just because plants are no longer in flower. Unless there is snow-cover you can still collect useful records even in a place previously well-recorded by excellent botanists!!
Saw this patch of interrupted clubmoss from a track at Potarch, South Aberdeenshire, I've walked along many times before. I normally visit in summer, so will blame the leaves on the trees then for not having spotted it previously. An interesting setting, in birch woodland at just ca 95 m altitude.

I have photographed 110 individual Asterionellopsis glacialis colonies over the last 3 years. And now they’re all ready for the Norfolk Plankton Image Library! #marineplankton 🦑

This is a legitimate scientific revolution in meteorology.

Also, to be clear, these models are not the AI LLMs that most people are familiar with. They are machine learning algorithms trained on observations (actually reanalysis).

Meteorologists are surprised that the weather model that did the best job forecasting hurricanes this year was a new one, introduced by Google. AI may be the beginning of a new era of forecasting. n.pr/49MFa1M
As the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season ends, the future of forecasting is AI

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."
Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

And the folks who are actually writing full-time generally only got there after years of day jobs, family support, or both.

The point of sharing this is not to demoralize anyone, but to let emerging writers know they're not failing if they can't make a living off writing alone. Almost no one can.
almost every novelist you read who's not from the airport fiction or bestseller sections is working a full on day job, including multi-award winners and absolute legends, or they have a spouse or trust that supports them. virtually across the board. just normalize in your mind that's how it works.
I know we know this, but authors need to get better at talking about how they actually make their money. Stop pretending it's from the books.

Even your older nature photos can help scientists today! As long as you know when and where you took the photos, you can post your nature sightings on iNaturalist anytime — and they'll still contribute to science and conservation. Got anything in your camera roll to share? 👀

Just found out that Helen De Cruz passed away a few months back. Her book *Wonderstruck* played a major role in my class this semester. Literally just read a student's journal entry that mentioned how De Cruz now inspires her to appreciate life. I hope that inspired energy still reaches her somehow
