Prelim mag 8.1 #earthquake in the Philippines, waves rolling through Tucson picked up on my #Raspberryshake right now.

Looks like we might have an early and strong start to monsoon. #azwx

When you jump into bed with ol' enemies, and they remind you where you stand.

RIP Alan Hale, one of the greatest visual comet observers, philantrop and decent human being! You will be missed! 🔭☄️ youtube.com/watch?v=WoAL...

🚨 Carbon dioxide averaged 432.34 ppm in May 2026. This marks a new record high for the month of May and the annual seasonal peak. 10 years ago May averaged about 408 ppm. This continued rise is driven by human emissions from fossil fuels, with climate change impacts intensifying around the world.

The new ENSO Euro Plumes were released this morning. Hard to believe, but they are even stronger! Some members are even above 4°C! Remarkable. To be helpful I added color bars to distinguish between strong vs historic events. Almost all members are historical! Now here’s the relative… 1/2

Sin City just got a little jolt. Mag 4.1 #earthquake. Picked up in Tucson on my #raspberryshake #vegas

The billionaires have pavloved the masses. We are all now the stars of our own little realty TV shows, drunk on adoration and likes and paralyzed at the thought losing our public. Starting to belive we need social media rehab centers.

Project 2025’s authors explicitly targeted the network, claiming the OOI was “the source of much of NOAA’s climate alarmism" More unbelievably stupid shit from the Trump admin, fueled by Project 2025 and Russell Vought. When this El Nino peaks these morons are about to see some "Climate Alarmism"

Meteor over Boston caught by weather sats. Every now and then we get a reminder that we live in a cosmic pinball machine. Luckily a smaller rock, just sent out a nice sonic boom. Haven't heard any reports of ground damage.

It's wild to think there was some socially inept kid who was reading cautionary tales of internment camps in school and thinking, "Hey, that's a good idea." It's more wild to be in a world where that kid is the White House Chief of Staff. Backward ass times we are in.

The Blue Origin New Glenn explosion was so powerful it easily registered on #raspberryshake seismographs in Palm Bay and Titusville, FL. Also registered on a ShakeNBoom (Infrasound) near Lake Apopka, FL. #earthquake #explosion #blueorigin 🧪

Trump sued his own IRS. Settled with his own government. Secured a $1.8 billion slush fund to siphon toward his allies. Blocked the IRS audits against himself and his family.  This is corruption in plain sight.

That part

Bruce Springsteen has no fucks to give. 👏

Teen Neo-Nazis "...The parent, who has not been named, said she realized several of her guns were missing, and said she saw him and a companion wearing 'camouflage outfits', Chief Scott Wahl said." Can we please just start charging the parents here? Why did your lil nazi have guns Karen?

No money for pediatric cancer research but there's $1.7 billion for people who beat cops and smeared feces on the walls of the US Capitol.

Comet 391P/Kowalski had a very close approach to Jupiter in January of 2003. Greatly modified its orbit. 🔭 @richardkowalski.bsky.social

New update to CSS Orbit View. While not a gravity simulator, you can cheat now using JPL Horizons Oscillating Elements. Here is Apophis animated before and after the 2029 close approach to Earth! neofixer.arizona.edu/css-orbit-view #asteroid #astronomy #science #visualization 🔭🧪

Rarity for Tucson AZ. Least Flycatcher. If I'm not mistaken, I'm the first to submit this one in Pima County (although my report is sitting unconfirmed in eBird). Cool little bird. Seems distinguishable from the Dusky, high contrast white banding on wings, ring around eye, small. #birds 🪶📷

Beautiful fireball north of Tucson on 5/13 at 11:51pm. Clear fragmentation at end. #meteor #fireball #tucson #arizona 🔭🧪

Full tutorial of CSS Orbit View. Been meaning to put this together for a while now. Interactive orbit viewer, plot asteroid and comet orbits - up to 1,000,000 objects. Enjoy! #astronomy #science #asteroid #comet #orbits 🔭 🧪

Thinking back to all of those stupid interviews before the last election, with "on the fence" voters looking past Jan 6th because "the economy". How's that working out?

Interesting #earthquake swarm in Brawley CA over the last day or so. Something is shifting around. Picking up a lot of them on my #raspberryshake in Tucson.
