A whale swimming in a beautiful blue ocean with shafts of light. The text says, This is one of the rarest whales in the world. It's American, but most Americans have never heard of it. A whale swimming to the surface. The text says, Rice's Whales live only in the Gulf of Mexico. They were identified as a species in 2021. Arrows point to the pointy fin, three ridges on the head, and a length that's a little longer than a school bus. A whale making calls that look like swirly lines and little frogs. The text says, They make unique sounds, including a frog-like grunt and a sweeping, descending moan. These calls have echoed through the gulf for millions of years.
An image of 50 whale tails, and a whale resting at the surface. The text says: Today, there are fewer than 100 Rice's whales left - maybe only 50. Oil spills, noise from industry, and shipping traffic make things tough, especially since these whales sleep close to the surface at night.
A whale swimming through a sunset-purple sea, with two other whales farther away. The text says: Rice's whales are a treasure. For those of us in Mexico and the USA, they're OUR treasure. A whale swimming up to the surface. The text says: They're ours to marvel at, to love and protect.

I made this comic a few months ago, in collaboration with an expert named Tommy Tucker. I can't believe that it's immediately out of date because it refers to the Gulf of Mexico.

Two colossal stars send out waves of dust in an amazing JWST image WR 140 is a terrifying star system, but it sure is beautiful. Also, announcing a new rate for the newsletter.

Hoo boy, I bet you could use a distraction today!

So how about an intense JWST image of a pair of colossal stars whizzing past each other and blasting out wave after wave of dusty shells, expanding away at a soul-freezing NINE MILLION KPH?!

Photo of a small crab from NOAA’s social media. It’s covered in spikes

Just making sure that everyone is aware of this crab that NOAA scientists found

To me the cool thing about this image is that the sprinkling of blue stars are in the foreground, some 5 million light years away, while all those gorgeous colorful swirly galaxies are almost unimaginably more distant, out in the far depths of the cosmos. More info: www.stsci.edu/contents/med...

I made adobong manók (Filipino chicken adobo) for the first time for my anniversary with @alabastre.bsky.social! It was actually a lot easier than I thought it would be, I'm glad I gave it a shot :D
I paired it with a tequila umeshu I've been fermenting since May (it's a separated 90 day batch)
