aw sorry! Her!

aww my condolences. May there be plentiful mice for him on the other side!

I have a question 🤚: how will they cool it? Spacecraft are notoriously difficult to cool so I can only imagine this thing must end up with a radiative cooling assembly the size of a small dyson sphere

Nobody makes good fossil fish masks so this year I knocked out a Protosphyraena for myself!

A little cardboard and superglue goes a long way when paired with obsession

Plenty more anomalies and issues flagged by various others on PubPeer; too much to blame it on a student or undergrad.

Are you sure you didn't get hacked? Especially because they flagged it for spam and are willing to deny an appeal I think you might've got a case of compromised account on your hands.

as foretold 🥳

I don't clout chase. I don't clickbait. I don't start discourse. I don't censor myself. I don't optimize my searchability.

You gotta pay attention to the invisible wet floor signs.

UTTERLY SURREAL LOW ANGLE GLACIER SLIDE!! 😮😱

On Saturday at 11:00 am, a 2 km-long, 25 m-high, and 150-200 m in width section detached off the Ismoil Somoni Glacier (Tajikistan) and slid down the gorge! 🧊🌊

It looks like you're going trough a really rough time right now, and that's not strange given how shit the world is, but give yourself some time to find the people you need to find. The journey is hard but I promise you it is worth it.

hey, I know you might not read this, but you'll find your people. We will find you. I promise you that. If you are still alive, we will be there for you. I cannot lie, it might take a couple years, but we are out there, and we will find you. Hang in there💖

iirc if tumblr INTENTIONALLY bans you because a human looked at it and decided you broke TOS you'll usually also recieve the typical corporate angry email saying "breaking the rules is not allowed" and things like that. In both cases for me the account was just poof'd without explanation.

I've had mine deleted twice now and each time I was back in business pretty quickly. Not all hope is lost!

You know things are utterly FUBAR in the US when @bellingcat.com is doing satellite imagery analysis of the White House.

It’s increasingly hard to see how anybody can be fooled into thinking that this is thinking, unless they already badly want to believe it

so you can have an AI drop table your company's entire customer database, as god intended.

Google Earth satellite image showing a sinuous, ephemeral (currently dry), braided stream that is pale gray with trees within the channel. Red eolian sands are to the south (bottom) of the stream, whereas folded, black bedrock mantled with light brown to tan sediment lies north (top) of the stream.

A red eolian dune field to the south (bottom) of a sinuous, dark line marking a stream channel. To the north (upper half) is a desert of variagated back bedrock and light tan sediment. There is a dome popping out of the ground, looking like an eyeball, in the middle, upper 1/3 of the shot.

The 2025 Google Earth imagery is wild. We live on such an astoundingly beautiful planet.

Protester Guide: How to Defend Against Police Surveillance Learn how to protect your digital safety when attending a protest in person.

The ACLU has written a guide to basic protest OPSEC that addresses the very basic risk factors -- it's nowhere near fully comprehensive, but it's the absolute table stakes for responsible protest: aclu-wa.org/story/Protes...

Pitchford’s line about Borderlands 4 being a “premium game for premium users” is a hollow joke considering how utterly ravaged by bugs it is.

Like, this thing is broken in many ways that the arrogance about it isn’t even partially earned.

There is very low water at Whitemouth Falls Park this year. This channel is usually full and fast-moving.
