Pyrite in quartzite matrix.

Here are some rock shots for you! 😁
There are so, so, so, SO many more where those came from….

Photograph showing the fibrous structure of the mineral chrysotile. A mineral's tendency to grow in this parallel-fiber shape is called an asbestiform habit, and numerous minerals have it. Photograph by Marli Miller.

Wanted to congratulate @marlimiller.bsky.social for being the photographer of this chrysotile specimen featured in the @washingtonpost.com's coverage of the new EPA ruling. Lovely specimen, Marli!

A microphoto of a serpentinite (width of view: 3 mm) with bladed antigorite overgrowing lizardite, sheared chrysotile veins, and a foliation defined by fine-grained chrysotile (identified through Raman spectroscopy and Raman mapping).

Antigorite, lizardite, and chrysotile.... here you have them all, and this rock is #submitted ☺️

No. This is somewhere to be. This is all you have, but it's still something. Streets and sodium lights. The sky, the world. You're still alive.

Did you know?

If you visit Mount Namuli, Mozambique, you may witness male Stripe-cheeked Greenbul and Black-browed Mountain Greenbul “controlling” sections of forest. They do this by occupying different song posts and counter-singing!

A man in a helmet and body suit is strapped in the fetal position around an industrial rotor. He says "OK, my body is securely fastened to the rotor." He sheds a single tear and with determination says "I'm finally gonna spin dash like my hero, Sonic." The rotor turns on wwith a VVVVRRRRRR and the man's body becomes an ovoid blur. At the funeral, two mourners overlook his body which is not shown. One says "I don't know why we did open casket. His neck is so fucked up."

Twitter has conditioned me to always have something to dunk on, every post in here is like
