Hi, I have diagnosed c-PTSD and this is true and if you suck at tetris, any bright coloured fast game requiring rapid eye movement and decision making will do! it also helps if you witness something triggering and are trying to stave off an episode

Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.

Anyone know how to remove your papers without making an account? I'm not on there, but in the publicly available part of their search it looks like my papers all are.

The intense #SaharanDust plume over the North Atlantic is predicted to reach western Europe in the coming days in the #CopernicusAtmosphere forecast. These episodes are not uncommon at this time of the year, particularly impacting air quality and visibility in Canary Islands and Madeira.

NEWS: Meta is about to start a $65 million midterms push — its biggest political effort in its 20 years in business. Meta is standing up two super PACs that this week will drop money in races in Texas and Illinois to push A.I. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/18/t...

Just in: 50 parents and transgender activists have blockaded the HHS Building in protest of sweeping new rules that could ban trans youth nationwide. 24 were then arrested. This is the kind of action we need. Subscribe to support our journalism.

docs.google.com/document/d/1... Hey folks, tried putting together a letter in direct response to the NSF unprompted decision. Feel free to offer suggestion or to add your name as a signatory, and thanks to those that did it alredy! Current text follows (errors all mine!)...

Looks like a black and white county road map but it's a satellite image with roads and other features accentuated by blowing snow. Western Des Moines Lobe, Iowa, US 20 near the north edge. Sentinel 2.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

You may laugh, but the Macbeths are a much better role model for a marriage than Romeo and Juliet. They discuss their problems (killing the king of Scotland), share their hobbies (killing the king of Scotland), and resolve their conflicts (by killing the king of Scotland).

Trying to put together a quick response to the announcement. Can folks (mainly US profs/researchers at this point) reach out if interested to chime in/join? Can share link to draft.

shorter ring commercial: your spy camera’s auto-search function will only be used to track down lost dogs AND NEVER TO HUNT HUMANS (probably)

some brand just paid 8 million dollars to make people think of us

I'm super stoked for Bad Bunny to stunt on the G Hoe Pee, but are we pretending Kendrick didn't happen last year?

Velociraptors had feathers

I was laid off from the Washington Post today, along with hundreds (!!!) of incredible colleagues. If you need a data journalist, chart designer, or wacky-idea-specialist, give me a shout!

On 2 February 2026, a major landslide occurred on a cut slope on the Ionian motorway between Arta and Amfilochia in Greece. This failure appears to have occurred on a slope reinforced with rockbolts. No-one was harmed. eos.org/thelandslide...

This is one of my favorite optical illusions, because even when you know specifically HOW IT WORKS, it's still hard to make your brain believe it. The image below is real-world video, but you're being tricked into believing it's an elaborate miniature by the DIORAMA EFFECT. Let's talk about it.

I caught TB in the Bay Area in the early 90’s when I was in high school. I’ve got nerve damage because of it. Not something to mess with, even with early treatment.

Damn. Tuberculosis cases are occasionally reported in the U.S., but an outbreak of 50 cases in San Francisco is extraordinary. There's no good TB vaccine -- BCG is used in some countries, but it's not very effective. www.sfgate.com/bayarea/arti...

#caturday and it is 11F outside

I hate this. I hate that scholars and teachers are supposed to be digital fraud experts. I hate that this part of their job description is becoming larger and larger. I hate the widening distrust. I hate a culture that aggressively devalues the curiosity and humility required for ongoing learning.

Excited to share the 2nd paper from Olivia Paschall's PhD work, where she demonstrates how adding cross-polarized SAR imagery to the normal co-polarized data can improve inferred deformation rates, applied to Death Valley: kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F...

🌊How big tsunamis get depends on how earthquakes rupture!! Modeling large earthquakes realistically, rather than with simpler assumptions, shows far‑field tsunami amplitudes can increase by ~30%, raising hazard at distant coastlines. #Tsunami Read more: seismica.library.mcgill.ca/article/view...

This photo was taken in 1911 using glass plate technology by Herbert Ponting who was part of Scott's Antarctic expedition, The composition and detail are exquisite with the band of white snow/ice creating a perfect frame around the two people and the ship in the distance Iconic imo

2025 goes down as the ~3rd-warmest year on record (based on ERA5). Like in 2024, every single day this past year was warmer than the average of even the most recent reference period (1991-2020).

Impressed by the protected bike lanes in Oakland

If anything, politicians should be promising literal gravy trains. Get people excited about rail infrastructure again.

Holy moly. Landslide ruptured buried gas line which caused an explosion (apparently?) and now a major N/S artery from Central Cal to SoCal is still shut down. www.latimes.com/california/s...
