My spouse turned the TV channel after the Dodgers lost their game. He landed on an ESPN channel with PFC. pillow fight championship. Wut. 😂🤣 I’m dying. Grown men are swinging pillows in a boxing ring. I don’t know what to say.

This is some sick shit. Republicans continue to claim God speaks to them and that unfettered access to guns is biblical. Utter blasphemy and insanity.

Enypniastes means DREAMER!

Schmidt Ocean Institute@schmidtocean.bsky.social · 6d ago

Enypniastes eximia, a deep-sea sea cucumber recorded at 1095 m during #DeepWonders expedition. We see how this graceful gelatinous gem earned the nickname Spanish dancer. Look how their tubefeet glide across the seafloor, scooping up nutritious marine snow as the animal swoops up into the water.

The state/THECB change the funding formula and now they can’t fund according to that formula? Because we all worked hard to improve student success and they didn’t think it would happen? Come. On.

From The Texas Tribune, Texas community college leaders are bracing for cuts because they’re missing out on millions that the schools earned but the state can’t afford to pay.

Spent a few days in central IL with extended family. Matthiessen State Park views. The hike down the dell was an adventure with cousins and aunts & uncles.

This idiot has probably never been to the BOREAL FOREST a day in his life. It is 5.5 times the size of Texas. You cannot "groom" it. It's burning because of climate change. The utter bullshit from these climate deniers. Canadians are sick of this bullying and they are not going to take it.

Rep. Jeff Van Drew: "Canada isn't working because they are so far left. This should be a warning shot to them. You better come to America, say, 'We're sorry, we're gonna mend our ways and do what we used to do and groom and maintain the forest.'"

On an earlier dive the leads said they saw a "new to science" octo. That caused confusion. Someone even wrote an article. Words matter. The genus Graneledone is well documented. What they were saying was that the species could have been one that hadn't been collected & described

I find it particularly crass and evil of the (all republican) politicians’ public comments at Canada to control their fires and smoke not 2 days after a Canadian K-MAX pilot was killed fighting fires in Colorado. The decades of cooperation and shared sacrifice mean nothing to those absolute ghouls.

Among other very bad things, the proposed and imminent rules would cause "reduced public access to weather, water, and climate information as recipients of federal funding face new restrictions on public communication of their scientific knowledge and understanding."

American Meteorological Society@ametsoc.org · last mo.

New AMS statement responds to a proposed OMB rule that would restructure federal grantmaking. The rule "would damage the nation’s ability to understand, predict, and respond to ... natural hazards with negative impacts on public safety and the economy." Read more: https://bit.ly/4awoYRO

Depending on your time zone it's either a late evening for watching a dive or maybe a morning watch for you. #ROVHercules is at about 3800m on an unnamed seamount east of Mariana Trench. Just getting started on this dive. @nautiluslive.org nautiluslive.org

The ban is heinous for what it does to transgender athletes. But if you think cisgender girls and young women won’t be caught up in the fallout, too, you are woefully ignorant

We must also not lose sight of the disastrous rulings handed down by the Roberts Court this term, including attacks on: -Voting rights -Syrian and Haitian migrants -Transgender students -Campaign finance law -Independent regulatory agencies -The ability to hold corporations accountable
