I have a most delightful media request: I am looking to speak to one of my ecologist colleagues who plays any of the Pokemon games about some of the Pokemon that are based on real animals, and/or what you like about playing Pokemon. 🧪🌍 #SciComm

I know some of you will appreciate the unlivable city hellscapes that #velostrasse bicycle-pedestrian zones have created in Basel Switzerland. This Brompton is a loaner from my hotel. I can dream about this for the lower Jones Falls, can't I @jahorne.bsky.social ?

He beat you to it again @nytpitchbot.bsky.social

SOTU? STFU!

This snow storm was photogenic and the mild temperatures made it tolerable to go outside

There are some real gems in this thread

My decision to go to the Springsteen concert instead of studying for the organic chemistry midterm exam back in 1976 is holding up well

Emily‘s Substack today is very much in line with something I’ve been noticing, that a authoritarian governments are very good for fossil fuel promoters and bad for democracy. open.substack.com/pub/heated/p...

8” of snow according to the Fish Measure, Baltimore Mt Washington. I hear the sleet starting now @capitalweather.bsky.social

Yes!

In the face of fascism and murder, a friend advised “Do not nothing”. One step for me has been to join the 2026 cohort of “local science partners” with my professional society @agu.org . It’s not much, but it’s not nothing www.agu.org/honors/local...
