She saved the contest - you know an Israeli win under current conditions, with multiple invasions and war crimes, would tear the contest apart. We can't keep risking it. Next year must be different.

How the hell did the reform MP taking Russian bribes not become headline news? He’d been in ukip,brexit & reform with Farage for years & he’s taking money from Russia to promote Russian interests. Why isn’t this everywhere & more questions being asked? Glad he got 10 years #Reform #Russia #Ruskiform

"In the eyes of this administration, immigrants who are undocumented are all “illegal immigrants” and these “illegal immigrants”, ergo, are all “criminals”. But, on so many levels, it’s just not true. It’s a popular myth pushed by the right that needs urgent debunking."

If you know of a #projection connection that's missing from the poster, please let me know! I would like to expand it at some point. (Also it's free to download and if anyone's ever printed it out in the last couple of years I'd be keen to know!) somethingaboutmaps.wordpress.com/2022/12/19/p...

A full view of a poster entitled Projection Connections. Its content is yellow on a blue background. Each yellow box contains a projection, and is connected by lines to other projections to which it it srelated.Detail image of the poster, showing the legend (indicating what the different syles of connecting lines mean) and showing a few example projections.Detail from the poster showing connections between Equirectangular, Plate Caree, Azimuthal Equidistant, Aitoff, Winkel Tripel and more.

Happy Werner Projection day to all who celebrate! The Werner is a specific case of the Bonne (as is the sinusoidal). I dug out my old Projection Connections poster to highlight it. somethingaboutmaps.wordpress.com/2022/12/19/p...

A portion of a poster showing the connections between various map projections. Each projection is shown in a small box, and connected by pattern-coded lines to other projections. In this clip, the Werner, Bonne, Sinusoidal, and Tetrahedral are all highlighted while the other porjections fade into the blue background.

just a reminder that despite somewhat dismal sales numbers, people who've read my book said they found it important and clarifying, and emotionally resonant, and thoughtful, and well-written. and i hope you'll consider buying it as we move into the era it describes: bookshop.org/p/books/wild...

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯
