What do you get when you cross a mosquito with a mountain climber??

Nothing! Everyone knows you can’t cross a vector with a scalar 🫣

Ridgeline chart showing the distribution of global daily air temperature differences from the pre-industrial reference period (1850-1900), for every year between 1940 and 2024. Each individual year resembles a hill, shaded in a darker shade of red and further to the right for warmer years. The trend is clearly towards warmer years, with 2024 standing out as first year above 1.5C.

NEW: 2024 has just been confirmed as the warmest year on record, and the first to breach the 1.5C threshold.

We used a ridgeline (Joy Division inspired) chart to visualise daily temperature anomalies since 1940.

2024 clearly stands out with 100% of its days above 1.3C and 75% above 1.5C.

I put this together awhile back, but I did some updating today to add a few more.

This starter pack is simply people whose products I have actually used at my tables. I love a lot of content out there, but this is strictly a list of creator content I've actually used. go.bsky.app/VJbfVKV

As for the rest of your hyperbolic friendly fire, 🙄: naming him, mocking him, using honorifics, etc. is all rather irrelevant to real resistance.

As I’m sure you know, people said he-who-must-not-be-named instead of Voldemort out of fear. The analogy fails.

And while we certainly have much to fear from 🍊💩🤡, I don’t say his name, not out of fear, but because he is beneath even that minimal level of respect.
