Old Twitter and BkueSky helped me connect to my geoscience and science peeps! Project collaborations have happened because of this, IRL friendships have been made and 600+ nerds found and bought my LiDAR-derived scale-model volcano tissue box covers. (Maybe I should print a new run soon).

3-D model of assault and sea mud volcano, erupting tissues from a cubic tissue box that is stored underneath. It is a combination of brown colors that says “salton sea mud volcanoes“

3-D model of Tahoma volcano, erupting tissues from a cubic tissue box that is stored underneath. It is a combination of quickly changing rainbow colors to make it look like in insar that says “Tahoma Mount Rainier“

3-D model of Lawetlat’la volcano, erupting tissues from a cubic tissue box that is stored underneath. It is a combination of silver colors that says “Lawetlat’la Mount St Helens“

3-D model of Stromboli volcano, erupting tissues from a cubic tissue box that is stored underneath. It is a combination of gold and purple colors that says “Stromboli Il Forno Del Mediterraneo“

I am having a flash sale. One day only, and 50% percent off everything in the shop. This ...never happens? Fun time to explore the place if you were curious.

If you are looking for an unusual, tense, and oddly beautiful horror movie this Halloween, I highly recommend A Dark Song, should it have escaped your notice before.

There are more trans Americans right now in 2025 than there were German Jews in 1933, both per capita and in absolute numbers.

So… think about who you really are and what history will say when you talk about abandoning people.

the answer to the trolley problem is not to pick who to sacrifice, it’s to dismantle the system that led to an unsafe trolley crossing.

if any part of your morality strategy involves picking a group to let die on a hill, throw the entire strategy out. it’s wrong.

Jeez, people are such dicks.

So, the Spy books by Andrew Cope (Spy Dogs, Spy Cats, and Spy Pups), *children's books*, had urls for the author's website as back matter.

The author lost the domains.

The new owner populated it with porn sites.

Surely there are limits? These are books for children.

Have these people never seen 'Princess Mononoke?'
On top of being absolutely beautiful, it's also weird and gross and brutal!

Reducing the "Miyazaki style" to soft, cozy, and safe is just ignorant and insulting.

I honestly cannot look at a Pixar film for more than five minutes anymore

I’m convinced the main reason Miyazaki films have a reputation for being “cozy” in the West is because he actually writes and animates long moments of quiet into his stories, whereas Western animated films are usually a nonstop parade of loud music, sounds, noises and neon colors.

Miyazaki: in this movie two young girls (one is a toddler) are uprooted from everything they know to start new lives near the rural hospital their mother is in; she is possibly dying of TB. Their dad works several hours away and they are largely unsupervised.

AI Bros: so homey! So comfy!

Hi Jay! It's been 17 days and this misinformation/hate speech is still on BlueSky!

I don't think it's very fair to make an entire platform based around openness and fairness, but then tell people to leave if they don't like it!

I also just want to say that America has a long history of lying about how violent and dangerous Black men are to fit agendas. Jay, Aaron, Paul, et al are pretty directly engaged in white supremacy bullshit.

They just called a pacifist Black man a dangerous predator because they don't like him

bet Jay was thinking that banning Link — someone cherished by every single group that built this app and make up its core user base — she was also unraveling all the lies bsky leadership had to tell to keep the lights on

Harris lost because she threw human rights under the bus to pander to Centrist and GOP votes *she was never going to get*. She was doing great until she made Waltz hold his tongue! She lost that election all on her own.
