Pics from 4 of the 5 biggest geomagnetic storms so far from Solar Cycle 25. Alas, it was midnight sun season and cloudy during the biggest storm of the cycle in May 2024. As solar maximum wains, we will see less big displays, but I bet we have a few shows left. #northernlights #aurora #iceland

Apparently our electricity bills are going through the roof and this is partly related to data centers that hog huge amounts of electricity to generate information. I, for one, feel hopping mad about this. The companies that are using the data centers should bear the cost. time.com/7355839/why-...

I’ve been chronicling my return to guitar competency after years of not playing regularly. This is OK’er. Everything is awful and we get to have some joy.

There are approximately 3 million undocumented persons in Texas and Florida, and there are about 100,000 in Minnesota. Ask yourself why ICE has been deployed to MN, but not even close to the same way in FL and TX. This isn't about immigration, it is all about politics and retribution.

🧵1/2 I’m in the Panama airport, waiting for my last flight towards home. Cane Toads (Rhinella marina) are introduced pests in Australia and elsewhere, but NE Peru is home territory for them and I see them every day, but not always so large 😬 #herps #toads 🌿

Beauty of a sunrise over Long Island Sound this morning. 7 degrees. Windy. Couldn’t feel my fingers. But worth it! Madison, CT.

Happy Saturday! It's a winter weekend! 9° temperatures and 36 MPH winds didn't deter the sunrise pre-show today from being stunning. Even with the 0.5X ultra wide angle on the iPhone I still couldn't get it all in. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!
