Opinionated cartoons and views on how we are doing, backed with evidence. Happy to learn more. Unfortunately my limited talent to draw isn't matching ideas in my head. I seem to be using this account for commentary.
Nice thread about Ice being a git ... To be filed alongside all other versions of "we have made the bull angry, and put it in a china shop. We know the there will be carnage, but not which things, when, or in what order."

My comment on Hegseth's "livestreamed execution" "Beyond ethics & rationality: welcome to the assholocene" "The asshole society has made it a principle not to have to explain itself, to feel comfortable in its assholishness, to be proud of it instead of ashamed." I felt that article appropriate 😬
Beyond ethics and rationality: welcome to the assholocene
The epoch in human history in which the nationalist, patriarchal asshole replaces the neoliberal sociopath as the dominant subject: this is what I call the assholocene

Europe didnt just experience an exceptionally hot summer in 2026. It experienced a summer where multiple climate extremes reinforced each other. First - temperature records were broken at daily, monthly and seasonal scales across Europe Read more: climate.copernicus.eu/summer-revie...
Your 'bonus moment of doom' for today: 365 million Hiroshimas. "The explosive addition of thermal energy, which was almost 40 times greater than all the energy humanity used that year, comes amid far-reaching changes to the deep water bodies fundamental to life on Earth."
World’s oceans absorbed record heat equal to 40 times annual global energy use
The injection of thermal energy comes amid an increasing rise in sea levels and continuing acidification

"Double reality". Yep. Able to intellectually recognize the various crises unfolding, yet all forces around me (job, home, family, friends) are studiously disinterested and determined to live within BAU paradigms and norms.
Dr. Aaron Thierry@thierryaaron.bsky.social · 3w ago"Here, we suggest that both academic institutions and academics as individuals largely exist in a state of ‘double reality,’ in which we are able to intellectually recognize the existence of the crisis without feeling a compulsion to act on it."

David Ho@davidho.bsky.social · last mo.NSF has reduced the research budget for all atmospheric, ocean, and earth sciences by ~80%. 80%! A lot of us will not be conducting new research or training new students for the foreseeable future.
