If you don't already know who Bobby Fingers is, this is as good an intro to his surreal world of art, storytelling, and tabloid drama as you'll find: youtu.be/vGt7-WnWdhE?...

All cops should have to spend their first two years on the job without a firearm so they are forced to rely on other tactics besides pull out gun and yell. They can partner with an officer who has already had two years of firearms restriction and is allowed to carry a firearm.

Every senator seeking to make Fauci the scapegoat for Trumps failed polices and blatant corruption should have to suck a covid lollipop.

Running out of body bags, using forklifts to transfer corpses into makeshift morgues, a mortician conducting 200 funerals in a month when he usually does 30, crematories running at double capacity… And these senators just want to memory-hole it all www.nytimes.com/2020/04/30/n...

If you have to put out multiple "proof of life" photos, you may not be alive. Also, how about a proof of life video? Or interview?

#gischat Question for all the map makers, but especially publication cartographers. How do you define the terms ‘Locator map’ and ‘Inset map’? 1/2

Honestly, Mount Rushmore is as gross as a UFC event on the White House lawn.

Great example of why NOT to trust the AI summaries. Asking a question about outboard motor placement the AI responded with an absolute answer about the height (2" below bottom) but the post that answer is based on the author only stated how their motor is currently set up, not how it should be.

Gunny has a message for Donald Trump: monuments are supposed to honor principles, sacrifice, and service. NOT a single politician. The "Arc De Trump" is a slap in the face to all veterans and military families. It's time to speak out against this would-be monstrosity before it's too late.

I'm not sure how much water that would have otherwise gone to baby seals got used in making this AI animation of an old map monster. But I might be ok with it! 🫣

It's been a while, so let's give a boost to one of my favorite hachure designs, of the #Cascade Range volcanoes. This bit of wall art might be of interest to folks who love the #PNW. www.etsy.com/listing/4373...

New poster! Hachure illustrations of the highest Cascade Range volcanoes. This one took a lot of experimentation to get the layout right. If you or someone you know loves this area, check it out. www.etsy.com/listing/4373...

What kind of an insane person cuts a BLT like this? Are we just doing whatever the fuck the we want now!?

#gischat Anyone out there familiar with DeGAUSS for geocoding PHI data? Looks interesting as a solution for protecting health info while geocoding, but I can't find any specifics on how it accomplishes the geo code or what is uses as an address locator. degauss.org/index.html

Uh, pretty much anyone other than an infant, the elderly, or infirm would be able to put him down. There are 90 pound women in my kickboxing/bjj school who would absolutely destroy him! And I would pay good money to sit front row for any of it.

I just updated my Hawaiian Islands map page with two new maps. They replace an older watercolor map and hopefully depict the islands better than I did before. As far as I know, there is no map of the full archipelago online that names (almost all) the rocks, islets, atolls and pinnacles.

Want to work with the GIS data from this lava flow map of Kilauea? The USGS data release (if you can find it) lists 100 separate items. Want to download those individual footprints? You will have to individually grab each of the shapefile component files, for every lava polygon layer. WTF?

No president ever demanded so much while doing so little.

I love the USGS, but OMFG what can't they just link to thier data sources from their publications! USGS data backend is a black hole. www.usgs.gov/media/images...

If vibe-coding is ok to turn in as real work then so is "vibe" writing a 30 page essay on english lit or "vibe" creating a pop art collage for art class. 🙄

The problem w Trump is because he's a narcissistic prick who doesn't care about US citizens, he's likely not suffering any of the normal stress induced health issues you'd expect the worlds most powerful person to have. He's literally too selfish and stupid to suffer the ill effects of his own job.
