Global sea levels have been underestimated due to poor modelling, research suggests Analysis shows average levels are 30cm higher than thought, and up to 150cm in south-east Asia and Indo-Pacific

h/t Tara Russell

"The finding could significantly affect assessments of the future impacts of global heating and the effects on coastal settlements."

Sea level much higher than assumed in most coastal hazard assessments - Nature Meta-analyses on a global scale show that the measured coastal mean sea level is higher than assumed in most coastal hazard assessments.

"Regionally, predominantly in the Global South, measured mean sea level can be more than 1 m above [land elevation measurements referenced against global geoid models], with the largest differences in the Indo-Pacific."

"...Progun PACs increase contributions by 31% in competitive districts with a fatal school shooting and by 2,820% if the shooting occurs within two months of an election."

They "can neutralize electoral pressure for policy change, even amid overwhelming public support for reform".

“He said that ‘President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth’."

Well, there are ≈30 million Evangelical Zionists in the Bible Belt, & some of them are military commanders.

Microbes might be able to planet hop on asteroid shrapnel Experiment confirms bacteria could survive being blasted off world by impact

#toughmicrobes

Deinococcus radiodurans, a.k.a. Conan the bacterium,"can tolerate the extreme cold, radiation exposure, and oxygen deprivation found in space."

It may "have little trouble surviving being blasted into space on planetary debris when an asteroid hits".

For urgent humanitarian aid, today COGAT (IDF) is "gradually" reopening Kerem Shalom, the crossing also used for Israeli commercial & smuggled products.

Before closing it on Friday, COGAT allowed about one third of urgent food and medical aid.

Hunting had brought humpbacks close to extinction, but in New Caledonia

"As the population recovered, there were more older males singing and successfully reproducing, compared to younger animals, than expected based on the underlying population age structure."

"While their study addresses an important topic, its restricted timing and duration, poor representation of oyster farming conditions, as well as biases in interpretation and unsupported claims, prevent it from supporting such conclusions."

Tks for a lovely gift.

Persona "incensurata" con passaporto valido, senza né mandato di cattura né richiesta di estradizione dall'Iran.

E tanto più facile da sorvegliare che stava in un villaggio di 2000 abitanti a quei tempi - proprio come Ostia, a suo avviso.

Sventolate dai radicali che sono "una parte della sinistra" - come scritto dall'autrice. Le direi "Faccia il piacere" di leggerla, ma so già che è inutile.

Good news but...

Every year on Independence day, Myanmar's military junta grants an amnesty. There are over 30,000 political prisoners, whose number increased before and during the December 2025/January 2026 elections.

Grazie di dar ragione a Hawzhin Azeez, di Donna Vita Libertà. Una parte della sinistra sventolava bandiere iraniane anche in Italia.

Khomeini ha vissuto quattro mesi in un villaggio delle Yvelines, e non aveva commesso alcun reato.

Proprio a Parigi, oggi anche degli Insoumis hanno festeggiato la morte di Khamenei sventolando la bandiera iraniana.

Non ha scritto lei "radicali e riformisti"?

Lei vive in Italia, l'autrice no. Comunque parla "una parte della sinistra" e mi sembra che radicali e riformisti da lei citati ne facciano parte.

Dark times, I know, but I'd never heard a one day old kakapo chirping.

Were I a US citizen, I'd have signed and pushed! Trump isn't only destroying your democracy...
If there was a vote for it within May, let's say, would the process really be over before the midterms?

I'm using as much green energy as I can and I'd encourage you to do so as well - also because it's cheaper (here in Italy).

"Netanyahu is a cynical and dangerous war criminal. But one thing cannot be denied: No Israeli leader has so deeply understood the collective psyche of Jewish Israeli society. A society that seems capable of feeling its own pulse only in war and destruction..."

How does calling for an impeachment with no chance of having the votes defend the Constitution?

Calling for Congress to take back its constitutional power to declare a war does, because most Democrats and some Republicans would vote for it - and it could lead to their support for an impeachment.

Dipende dai fusi orari, e.g. Australia e Los Angeles

Se leggerà il thread, vedrà che l'autrice scrive
"Oggi vedo militanti di sinistra sventolare la bandiera della Repubblica Islamica dell'Iran come se fosse un simbolo di resistenza."

Succede in varie città del mondo dove viene festeggiata la morte di Khamenei - stando ai notiziari.

They might use other IAs as well, but that's what @972mag.com reporters have documented.

And an anti-patriarchy framework, like the movement #WomanLifeFreedom's, no? Patriarchs kills their sons too...

AOC floats Trump impeachment over Iran strikes "It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment," a fundraising email from Ocasio-Cortez's campaign said.

She's probably chosen the most urgent and consensual "right thing" to do, imo.

l was referring to "Considerable intra-party scorn has been heaped on Reps. Shri Thanedar (D-Mich.) and Al Green (D-Texas) for floating votes on impeaching Trump."
