Are You Closer To The Sea or Outer Space? This map shows that most of Earth’s land is closer to outer space (just 100 km/62 miles up) than to the sea. But 40% of the world’s population lives in that thin red coastal strip on the map. More: brilliantmaps.com/sea-vs-sa...

Weather I’m coming home to after 3.5 weeks in Kenya. 🥶

My last night in Kenya! I fly home late tomorrow night. 🇰🇪❤️

Just saw my friends Orion, Canis Manor, & the Pleiades from here in Kenya. 🤩

The rate of acceleration for the fascist takeover is inversely proportional to the falling approval of the Trump regime

Trump: "All you have to do is say to China, how many windmill areas do you have in China? So far they're not able to find any." China:

The ballroom will streamline the corruption so much!

He shot her in the head, then called her a “fucking bitch.” That isn’t self defense, it’s an angry execution.

AAAAAAAAAAHHHH

Glad I missed it! I’m never happy about temps that warm in January.

Political cartoonists are not fuckin’ around this week. (thread) 1. Pat Bagley

The jobs report is in. What a disaster.

Just in time for when I get back to Ohio. 🫠

Amidst the horrific fires happening across Victoria today, I'm growing increasingly worried about wildlife in the Big Desert-Wyperfeld cultural landscape, including the threatened Wilkerr (dingo) population we study. This fire is already huge, spreading rapidly, & there's new fires in the south too.

'Catastrophic' fire warning for Victoria as out-of-control bushfires grow: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01-09/catastrophic-extreme-bushfire-warning-for-victoria/106211318

After the US admin cancelled the $B Climate + Weather Disaster dataset, @climatecentral.org hired the scientists who ran it and set it back up. Now the 2025 numbers are in: it's 3rd highest year on record and highest year w/o land-falling hurricanes. More: www.climatecentral.org/climate-serv...

what you clearly see, CLEARLY, is a driver who is spooked by the agents grabbing her door, takes steps to drive away, and is immediately shot as moves her vehicle *away* from the agents.

Trigger warning, but the videos make clear what actually happened.

Make. It. Stop. He’s completely deranged.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.

Make it viral.

Flowers bloom in January in Kenya. 😍🇰🇪

I think I have a plan for how to set up groups in this giant lecture hall where I’m teaching in spring. This has been like a logic puzzle for me. Drawing it by hand was very helpful. 😅 #StillOnVacation 🌴🇰🇪

Please read, share, and show up. Thank you 💪🏽🤩🏁

Fuck ICE.

I am going to kindly share, as a Black person used to dodging these types of things, if you have your settings set to autoplay video, today is a great day to turn them off. You can be very informed without having to witness murder.

One hundred thousand people a year and y'all using past tense when you talk about Covid now jfc

Friday is shaping up to be a nightmare in Victoria. Colleagues with fire fighting experience are very concerned by combination of heat, dry vegetation, and wind forecast. Don't take any risks, make plans now. Download the VicEmergency app and set up a watch area for notifications. Be ready to leave.

My 75yo mom sends me random instagram posts all the time that are not AI, but definitely contain people without expertise making dubious claims about all kinds of things. And she doesn’t question them. I quit FB years ago so don’t know what she’s seeing over there.

Apparently I have already watched the Pluribus season finale because there are nine episodes just to be confusing. 🙃 I was looking for episode 10. 🫠

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

Another day in Kenya, another lifer! This handsome dude was feeding on a banana blossom. 🍌🤩 merlinbirds.org/species/sccs...

The 9 warmest years for the Contiguous U.S. have occurred since 2012. 🔥🔥🔥

We’re old enough to remember when Congress existed

To be clear, we have not forgotten and will not forget about the Epstein files. We can walk and chew gum.

Trump could declare himself Emperor and Schumer and Jeffries would politely post on X that they’re “disappointed.”

This is what I wish more people would point out about "Make America Great, Again.' He means great for himself, his family and those he considers his peers - the wealthy 'winners' at life. Everyone else is just a 'sucker or loser' to be exploited.

Still soaking up the tropical sun (or trying not to really because *skin cancer*) for about another week. My current latitude is -1.28°. 🌴🌞

The aging pedophile who wants to be a king has kidnapped the leader of a sovereign nation without congressional approval. If the United States had an opposition party, they would treat this as an illegitimate act and start impeachment proceedings immediately.

Members of Congress: stop posting online and APPEAR, PHYSICALLY on the steps of the Capitol to decry this unconstitutional violation of domestic & international law. SHOW THE PEOPLE the level of danger we are facing as a country. @housedemocrats.bsky.social @senatedemocrats.bsky.social

Of course not. Congress is a joke under GOP/cult control.

We have to get him out of office!!!
