This is bothering me. I'm wondering if this is a foraminifera? There was 1 time they saw what I thought was a radiolaria, but it ended up being a foram, but I can't find it to compare the images. Thoughts?

When they said "Bill Clinton is in the files", THAT was not what I pictured 🤮

Before ACA ONE insurance company would insure me for $2000.00/month & covered NO pre-existing conditions. When it goes away, your long covid? Pre-existing. Not covered. Diabetes? Nope. ADHD, depression, cancer? That's pre-existing. Nope. Let's not forget about those pesky lifetime maximums

And remembers kids, if he wasn't numero uno on the esptein list, he'd have already printed it on shirts and sold them.

It has been a fabulous day watching that orange fucker & his sycophants flail about every time some new email drops. Have been dancing to this all day youtu.be/cZaJYDPY-YQ?...

Monday mayhem! We've never seen a scallop crash into an anemone riding a snail through a seafloor field of brittle stars either — but hey, you explore to see something new, right?! ROV footage from #Ecosde2Cañones expedition along the Patagonian shelf break.

During a 2021 expedition, scientists explored an offshore dumpsite, where barrels of toxic byproducts of the insecticide DDT were dumped between 1947 & 1972. Join us for a discussion w/ expedition scientists. Register now: https://schmidtocean-org.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_bGCuKTmDSrGydYHaoYFbuw

Sexual Abuse and Molestation (SAM) insurance exists

My guess is those were eggs, maybe from a tomopteris worm? Those worms are shaped like an IUD. You laugh, but look it up and tell me I'm lying. From @schmidtocean.bsky.social expedition in 2024. #MarineLife

MAGA: if it has to be subsidized it doesn't work. Me: okay then lets get rid of oil, fracking, the military industrial complex, police (acab), NASCAR, veterans affairs, churches... Would you like me to continue, or is that single brain cell of yours under too much stress already?

Reminding myself today that what you avoid controls you. Complaining and not taking action to change shit is a lot like prayers: totally useless

Motor protein lol

Caristiidae (manefish) from @schmidtocean.bsky.social dive 571 part 5 #mappinggalapagosvents #MarineLife

Dangit, my scuba tank is past inspection by a wee bit. Eh, I'm sure it'll be fine

Left, right, center? It does not matter b/c NONE of them work for us. They ALL need to be removed, expeditiously. www.pbs.org/newshour/nat...

Did y'all see that jobs report? But wait, I thought if you gave wealthy people more tax cuts they'd hire more workers and increase pay 🙄

"He looks fine" youtu.be/9ZYJAmAmFPw?...

The dems seem real happy w/ themselves thinking the election wins were just a rebuke of the trump regime. It was also a rebuke of AIPAC. Ignore that and things will not go the way you expect if we have midterms next year.

My Screensaver at the moment. Looks like I cut off the timestamp, but I believe it's from a @schmidtocean.bsky.social expedition in Jan 2024. Solitary hydroid with a lovely polychaete associate. #MarineLife

Being in a ton of pain isn't going to stop me from being outside. The extension cord reaches, the weather is beautiful, & this fella landed for a rest. The pain isn't less, but being outside reminds me that every living thing has a purpose, even me. Trust and believe that sometimes it's all I have
