I like it when Canadians ask me if I follow soccer, then they correct themselves and say FOOTBALL. Yes, it’s foot 🦶Ball ⚽️
If you are hosting the World Cup, the least you can do is call it by the right name

Let’s see what the stats say after the application period closes.

Super excited to get new colleagues in the next year!
Do you want to be one of them? Check these positions to join the Earth, energy and environment department at @ucalgary.bsky.social

I’m also happy to chat if you have questions 🧪⚒️🧑‍🔬👩‍🔬👨🏼‍🔬

Hark! What’s that we see on the horizon?

Is it something new? Something mostly metallic, quite heavy, and essential to society? It’s an all-new collaboration with IMA!

Ore Cup: www.mineralcup.org/about-ore-cup

Voting starts Monday November 3. Winner crowned IMA Ore Mineral of the Year

I'm very excited to contribute to this program.
Science meets economics, Indigenous relations, public policy and communication to train new talents who work on solutions for the energy transition. So much needed!

The EDIG logo. The EDIG Logo is a blue and green (representing land masses and the ocean) globe, with a grey banner wrapping around its centre. Within the grey banner are the letters 'E. D. I. G'. There are three blue hands holding up the globe.

After more than 2 years away from social media, we are excited to reconnect and engage with the community. Life changes, new jobs, and moves around the world have kept us quiet - but behind the scenes, we have been planning and building. Now we are ready to relaunch EDIG!

Ten common myths about bike lanes – and why they're wrong From congestion to cost, there are many entirely misguided arguments in circulation

”Perhaps the most comprehensive study of the real-world impact of cycle lanes, found businesses on streets with separated bike routes grew on average more quickly than those without.”

Remember, bike-lanes mean business.

10 WRONG Myths about Bike-Lanes.

In the top right corner, there is the Tap Talks logo. On the bottom half of the At the half bottom, the information about the event. The text reads: Topic on tap: Want to live on Mars?

Hey folks in Calgary! #YYC
Do you want to learn some cool facts about #Mars?
My friend and colleague Ben Tutolo from @ucalgaryscience.bsky.social will give a #TapTalk (aimed at a broad audience) this Thursday at Tool Shed Brewing. You can't miss it!

I was going to vote for #azurite because it is beautiful and a copper ore. But now I’m learning about #kosmochlor, and I’m intrigued.
I’ll collect more interesting facts before casting my vote

Elements are minerals when they have an organized crystal structure.
I don't make the rules

My stupid argument in favour of silver: the symbol (Ag) is my initials 😅

I have a love/hate relationship with baryte. I did my undergrad thesis on Baryte deposits in NW Colombia, good memories.
But also, baryte is classified as a critical mineral in the USA because it is needed for drilling muds. Wrong reason to define criticality, if you ask me.

Same here. I only saw one rider (besides me) masking today. And I’m counting my entire round-trip commute!

#MinCup25 continúa con el 2do choque de minerales.
Hoy la Estibina o Antimonita (#Stibonite) se enfrenta a la Okenita (#Okenite).
El primero maquillaje en el antiguo Egipto. El 2do es un mineral blanco y fibroso que parece algodón.

Yo voté Okenita

Looking forward to learn about cuprosklodowskite, haüyne, jeremejevite, kosmochlor, mannardite, paddlewheelite, thortveitite (I would not even know how to pronounce those names!)

I cannot believe this is the first time azurite is in the MinCup!

Behind her is her own geological map of the Ottawa Valley with the different features on collaged translucent Japanese papers in raspberry, purple, yellow, pale blue, and beige in inks of similar but darker hues. “OTTAWA RIVER” is marked but the final R is obscured by her head.

Happy birthday to #geologist & #paleontogist Alice Wilson (1881-1964).⁠ 🐡🧪👩🏼‍🔬⚒️ #histsci

Wow! it's worst than I thought. In the very early days of Mastodon it looked like that was the place to be

I would be curious to know what is happening with the other platforms as well. I know that Threads turned into some branding shit, but what about Mastodon?
