This local Wolfdog joined an Olympic ski event and triggered the finish-line camera. This is Nazgul. He snuck into a cross-country skiing sprint this morning and raced the homestretch with some competitors before being escorted home. 14/10 someone get him a medal

OTD in 2022 i denied any invasion would happen.

So you can believe my promises about peace now.

The UK universities cutting geography have lost their bearings From climate change to geopolitics, the knowledge, skills and insights of geographers have never been more relevant, say five professors

Really importance piece in the Times Higher on cuts to Geography at a time when it matters most www.timeshighereducation.com/opinion/uk-u...

Wow.

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

404 Media obtained internal police emails showing at least two agencies have bought access to GeoSpy, an AI tool that analyzes architecture, soil, and other features to near instantly geolocate photos. @evystadium.bsky.social has more.

Most days I feel quite sad about the end of things, but sometimes I read something - like this thread - and I’m like “bring on the apocalypse pls”

AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

I really feel this - thanks for sharing your wisdom

Ps - I watch and appreciate your tai chi and juggling from afar. Just in case you needed a boost today

america is somehow a burning building in the middle of a major earthquake during a hurricane, every morning

It’s hard to keep up with the avalanche of atrocities out there, but this is appalling in every way and must be stopped dead

I actually like that attitude! Otherwise I’m a bit too prone to Doom and Gloom, et al. I’m adopting this perspective - cheers.

I hear you! I’ve been waiting for ages for that mythical tipping point to be crossed - as so many of us have. And yet, here we are: Executions in the street, concentration camps, mass surveillance, destabilization of elections, etc etc etc etc. And I’m still waiting for the mass reaction…

Every day...!

Sen. Schatz on the failed indictment of Democratic lawmakers: “I’m not entirely sure the United States Senate can survive this if we do not have Republicans standing up for our most basic principles."

Every week, some sycophant gives this petulant and eminently bribable disgrace another gold trophy

Brilliant!

I’ve never felt unsafe in this bougie neighborhood a day in my life. This is a 25 mph zone, full of fancy bars and restaurants, a curling club, salons, boutiques, and one of the busiest coffee shops around. They are doing their damndest to wreck everything here.

They’re still trying to deport Liam Ramos, for god’s sake. They will admit no wrong for executing Renee Good or Alex Pretti. We’re still having to feed and house tens of thousands of families, many legally in the country, because they are unsafe going outside. This has been going on for two months.

Jayapal: To the survivors in the room, if you are willing, please stand. And if you are willing, please raise your hands. If you have still not been able to meet with this DOJ. Please note for the record that every single survivor has raised their hand.

Raskin: "I want the whole country to look at this. This is the attorney general of the US whose job is law enforcement. We've never had a witness who has misunderstood our rules and been unable to conform his or her conduct to our rules before. Excuse me."
