So, to be clear, the position of Trump, Hegseth and the rest of that gang of wannabe Mussolinis is that troops must obey illegal/unconstitutional orders? And quoting existing law is now against the law? That's their position, right?

I don't have time to read through them, but please let me know if any geologic features are mentioned in the Epstein files.

yeah, this is illegal.

⚒️🧪 Fiery eruption of Otman-Bozdagh mud volcano in Azerbaijan! The Otman-Bozdagh mud volcano erupted at ~8:27am local time today (11/10/25). Three eruption phases of between 4-12 minutes were recorded over an ~40 minute period. Video source: @_yagha_

The most shameful thing about these times is how many people in the GOP could step up and say this shit is not ok, but I guess they are fine with the lies, the assault on democracy, the hatred, the pettiness, the literal fascism... etc. This never ends well for those involved, you know.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

I smell a BIG lawsuit coming from the makers of Tylenol. Yuuuuuge!

If skin-crawling could be drawn, it would be this cartoon. It's nauseous dread in ink and type.

"The signature and font used in the 2003 Epstein letter resemble … "… a thank-you letter Trump sent in April 2006 to attorney George Conway … "… and a letter sent in November 2000 to Hillary Clinton …." www.wsj.com/us-news/law/... bsky.app/profile/moll...

WTF❗️ ICE arrested two firefighters who were fighting an active fire in WA’s Olympic Peninsula

Trump's unconstitutional ban on burning the American flag doesn't apply to Trump flags though. But i wouldn't buy one just to burn it, as he'd make money off it. Perhaps I should start selling extra-flammable ones. But please don't light one if there's a burn ban in effect. Wildfires suck.

I know that Cracker Barrel is really woke because they removed the old white guy from a logo, but have you considered how WOKE Hobby Lobby is???!! Not only have they NEVER had old white guys on their logo, they sell items that make gay rainbows!! www.hobbylobby.com/art-supplies... THE HORROR!!!

Get crazy with the Cheez Whiz.

WTAF?

It would be a real shame if this hit Palm Beach, FL. We certainly wouldn't want Mar-a-Lago to be affected.

<--- Feeling inspired.

Full video of the tsunami in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Kamchatka, Russia, following the 8.7 earthquake. Wave seems incoming and a few meters at least.

A perfect example of the idiocy and hypocrisy of conservatives is that when a disaster hits a conservative area, they blame liberals for it (however irrational that is) but if a disaster hits a liberal area, they say it's "God's wrath."

When doing field work, or being anywhere, always important to pay attention to your surroundings. Nice writeup on Biscuit Basin @yellowstonesv.bsky.social 2024: eos.org/features/hyd...

Amen

A man with a green card said ICE agents arrested him in #Lynn, Mass then took him to a detention facility—but first made a detour to a cemetery, where they took him out of their vehicle and beat him. #mapoli #Massachusetts

This is really messed up. Are ANY "small government/states' rights" GOP leaders condemning her statements?

This angle of the current Kīlauea eruption is even wilder! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bqmp...

This is a Paul checkpoint. Post a famous Paul or do not pass.

Is there any way we could get Trump and Musk to resolve their differences via Thunderdome?

And it's just getting more entertaining. I almost regret leaving Twitster because I can't watch the feud in real time. next thing you know, Musky will launch a SpaceX rocket at Mar-a-lago.

What if you like grilled cheese?

Good morning from @altyellonatpark.org

Cuts to USDA’s honeybee programs could spell disaster for farmers and beekeepers, Joanna Thompson reports:

I am a lib, and I feel SOOOOOO owned by this! MAGA, if you want to own the libs, the most effective way is to swim in sewage. It really offends us!

Happy Mother's Day!

Every book published in the United States is sent to the Library of Congress. Also, if you are under 16 you cannot use the reading room or order books.

Look out, Montana. I want to move north of the border to where they care about the planet. I need to plow through you to get there. Nothing personal.

Just act like you got some sense when you're here.

Happy Earth Day! 💚

WTF?!

So the fat orange goblin is pulling funding from Maine's prison system because, [checks notes] there's a trans person in prison. Wouldn't it be funny if Maine did what the governors of Texas and Florida did, and they shipped their prisoners to red districts, like those of Marjorie T. Green, etc?

Wow, you humans are a shitshow! Millions of years after you're gone, I will still be here, smelling funny, startling elk, but y'all are trying to expedite your own demise, aren't you?

I guess you can sometimes teach an old dog new tricks. www.usgs.gov/observatorie...

Anyone up for a little "Shake 'n' Bake"?

Thanks to everyone who participated nationwide!

Just read a post on another site, which I haven't validated... but it said Yellowstone is down to three Park Rangers. If true, that's fucked!

The Revolution will be AI-icized

The Upper Geyser Basin This shot of the Firehole river was taken just south of Biscuit Basin. Between the morning mist, the steam from one of the features, the ducks, the single ray of first light and the caldera rim peaking through the morning mist, it's one of my favorite photos.

Hey #google: I fixed it for you. #GulfofMexico #indigenous #resist

Thought we forgot ? Not a chance. It's Moose Monday.

Today is the 325th anniversary of the ~M9 1700 Cascadia megathrust earthquake + tsunami, the most recent major quake on the Pacific Northwest's subduction zone. An event that size could happen again any day. Video here shows how scientists figured out when it happened (9pm). youtu.be/A1R6B6_2KOk?...

Hey @cdnpolar.bsky.social ! Nice work messing up the inauguration of that orange creep! I owe you a beer or something.
