We'll see if it holds, but another proposed data center in rural, heavily Republican America has gone down after massive pushback.

Not to bro out or anything, but from appearances this dude would have trouble repping Sprite mini cans for lateral raises

1. My late Gen Z/early Gen Alpha daughter’s peers throw around “what in the ChatGPT” whenever someone isn’t making sense, and 2. Winning politicos will be the ones that can articulate the inherent worth of an actual human doing/creating - even and perhaps especially when it could be automated

Of all the airlines I want to own, I want to own Spirit the very least.

lol… he rage watched it. And presumably skipped the other thing

Holy shit! Is this true? If so, that’s awesome!

One of the domino players in the half time show looked like my 75 year old PhD advisor (who’s Borinqueño)… which was a little heartwarming

Statewide snowpack remains the worst on record, and it's not even close. It's barely half of where it should be. Again...zero pleasure delivering this news. There are outs, but we're gonna need a railroad track of storms in late February-April to get us out of this. #COwx

If you’re not from Idaho or the West, do yourself a favor and forego reading the Atlantic’s puff piece on Ammon Bundy. There’s nothing to be learned (not surprised he doesn’t like ICE), but it does show the MSM’s continuing failure to understand and take seriously extremist movements in these parts

I remember it like yesterday. I was a space-obsessed 1st grader at Earl Johnson in Golden. My teacher applied for the teacher in space program and was inconsolable. McCauliffe’s backup, from McCall ,did go to space later - and had a huge impact in my early career at Boise State. Spacetime is tiny

Welp. Colorado's snowpack is the worst on record, and there's barely any snow on the way for the mountains for the next 14 days. Northern mountains get a bit on Thursday, but it's a drop in the bucket. This pattern stinks. This winter stinks. #COwx

Unplayable and unwatchable for who, exactly? I’m guessing Broncos and Patriots fans loved it (outcome notwithstanding, from a Broncos’ fan perspective)

Thanks, I hate it…

Ball game!

CW3E has prepared a detailed event summary discussing the multiple #AtmosphericRivers that produced heavy precipitation, significant snowfall, and widespread impacts over the US West Coast between 18–27 Dec 2025. Read our extensive analysis here: cw3e.ucsd.edu/cw3e-event-s...

~ 7% global forests is plantation (young) Young (Y) vs Old forests (O): How do water + carbon (C) processes belowground differ? Y: less streamflow & deep gw % O: higher DOC + DIC; deep roots Y&O: can have contrasting DOC CQ; consistent DIC dilution agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

“Are you afraid now?” This pastor likely knows well that in the Gospels, Jesus’ most intense fear in the Garden of Gethsamane is *not* what he would endure, but rather that he would run from it

A large December storm hit the mountains of the Pacific Northwest – and left snow conditions in the Yakima Basin worse off in its wake. How might this event be a harbinger of winters to come? I offer this perspective piece, published today in @theconversation.com #snow #drought #climatechange

AFC WEST CHAMPS‼️‼️‼️ Goal No. 1 ✅ And we’re still climbing.

This is a really important paper and such a privilege to be involved moving it forward. Sharon did a masterful job of synthesizing data from a diverse array of sites and drawing some super important conclusions for Critical Zone science. I’m confident the community will be interested in this paper

Wait, Thursday Night Football is good now?

As this article alludes to, while Vought has likely coveted theatrical chance to do this, the timing of this is not at all happenstance. It is inextricably linked to Trump’s ham handed attempt to get Polis to release his state-convicted, election-denying lackey Tina Peters from jail

I first learned the term "snow drought" in 2015, when we received normal amounts of winter precipitation in the Northwest but record winter warmth left us with very little snowpack. That summer saw dire outcomes for fish and agriculture due to record low stream flows. "Water, water everywhere..."

Jesus, I can hear the game at my house, more than 3 miles away

Perhaps unpopular opinion, but I just want to hear the launch calls, not the fandom

That “dog that hasn’t barked” email from 2011 is giving off some very Whitey Bulger and Sammy Gravano vibes. What’s worse than being in the files?!? It might be being outed as a CI who snitched to avoid being prosecuted for some very bad and embarrassing crimes

We are so excited to share the results of this work! Annalise Guthrie’s hard work demonstrates how the loss and regeneration of deep roots can change the way deep soils are structured at a continental scale. This was such a joy to work on! @agu.org agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

Parents of 3rd-8th graders, especially those in grades 6-7, about to enter the chat ~>

I get that the college roster is big enough that 0-99 might not be enough, but how does this happen. Also, like 9 must be different from 09, right?

I don’t follow my home state politics as much as I do its pro sports, but wtf is going on with Polis?

I don’t shop at Temu, and think it and things like Shein are symptoms of a larger problem, but “Temu tax” is sitting right there to use as a talking point
