FIFA I’ve been treated very unfairly and I need you to find me four goals

JFC I’ve been rooting for the wrong team for 20 minutes based on bizarre uniform color choices again.

We’re already playing two countries at once and now our star player is ejected!

WE GOT! A murder of crows flying gloriously in front of a nearly full Moon as they head off to roost for the night! I've been trying to get this for years, you really only get one chance a month Hell yeah nature! Go log off, set a meaningless personal goal, achieve it, then go do it again! Joy!!🪶

Mechanism and updated prediction for the epic fail of Lincoln Memorial Bioreactor's polyurea coating! First chemistry, then physics It was sprayed in big sections. In addition to pool edges, failure will concentrate at the OVERLAP SEAMS between sections because they likely barely bonded at all. 1/x

Happy Fathers' Day to All

Accurate. Reposting because some of you are too young to remember the world being run by adults.

After two days of 85 degrees in the near east bay this is what I love to see. Sweet blessed fog.

Let's not forget the Giants coming back from 1-9 to win on a walkoff grand slam.

Once in a while you have to take the long view and appreciate that the surviving half of Milli Vanilli has shown more character and integrity than most of America’s business, academic and media leaders.

Feeling superannuated today. Nursing a rebuilt knee, hoping I can make it to a reunion tonight for a former workplace that’s closing down, and anxiously checking my sons phone location as he does a major one day Sierra summit hike, worried he’ll get hit by lightning or fall off a ledge. Mercy me.

Sleepy little Kensington CA has got its dander up!

A great show by The Third Mind last weekend at The Chapel in SF. Great venue and an outstanding band. Very solid musicians who play so well together. "Psychedelic blues/jazz jam band" is a phrase that normally makes me reach for a book but these guys are not to be missed. So good I bought the shirt!

New, at Can We Still Govern?: Christian Gläßel and @ascharpf.bsky.social have studied the formation of secret police in other countries. They explain the parallels with Trump's immigration enforcement. The key factor is career incentives not ideology. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-secret...

At last more lovely snow in the mountains. Add a torn knee ligament and a sled ride down the hill with ski patrol and it’s a real freakin’ Presidents’ Day miracle.

The mass shooters are mass shooting again

Wise words from WEB DuBois to gird us today: "It would be shame and cowardice to surrender this glorious land and its opportunities for civilization and humanity to the thugs and lynchers, the mobs and profiteers, the monopolists & gamblers who today choke its soul and steal its resources."

Why paint only two crosses on your face?

New — I wrote about ChongLy Scott Thao, the elderly Hmong American wrongly arrested and forced out of his home by ICE in his underwear during the punishing Minnesota winter, what witnesses saw, and DHS's racist claim that he fit the description of another Asian man they were looking for. My story:

More from "Army Talk" This is the description of "How Fascism Works" and is sounds scarily like a description of the basic tenants of Trumpism. More thanks to @hcrichardson.bsky.social for pointing out this amazing example of what our government used to teach (before Trump).

Today once again proved that everyday citizens protesting their government are braver than the titans who own the largest media corporations, run the biggest law firms and lead the most powerful technology companies.

A great show by Chuck Prophet and His Cumbia Shoes in SF at the Chapel. We’re lucky to have him close by! @chuckprophet.bsky.social

Joshua Tree NP is fantastic. Thank you park rangers for working during the shutdown

I just made this video for my astro-for-non-physicist course on the solar system, to illustrate celestial motion. The separate clips are all winners/honorable mentions of the @astro4edu.bsky.social astrophoto contest 2022. So nice to have this material! 🧪🔭🎢

Hey @actblueorg.bsky.social I’d give you another 25$ to get my phone info back off of the mens’ room wall. I’m getting 20+ spam msgs a day since donating. You’re welcome. Now please make it stop.

Call me old fashioned but can the president now decide that the government was once very mean to him and then come up with the right amount of money needed to soothe his feelings? Really? Trump Said to Demand Justice Dept. Pay Him $230 Million for Past Cases www.nytimes.com/2025/10/21/u...

all these people protesting today in groups of a few dozen on the main streets of small towns in deep red Trump country - where they will absolutely take shit from their neighbors about it at church tomorrow or at work on Monday or next time they go to the grocery store - are braver than the Marines

A quick thought (written in a cab!) on the administration’s view of speech.
