local meteorologist! this is even making the science people gasp.

New bucket list item just dropped

I just want people I care about to not get sick and potentially die because our government effing sucks is that too much to ask? Apparently. It's already exhausting AF to navigate our dystopic system. Good effing luck selling this as a positive, you bastards who will not see the light of heaven.

Daaaamn

if you can’t see the aurora borealis tonight, here is a sewer tunnel which is a wonder in itself.

Okay also epic that's it for me for tonight. Happy for y'all witnessing this, genuinely.

I can't even be grumpy about this one, damn

Anyways back in olden times a red aurora meant the death of kings JUST A FUN FACT NOT RELATED TO ANYTHING

Oh I would LOVE to see a color webcam from there right now just to see what's happening on that glowing horizon line...

It's fine I don't need to see the awesome colors I'm fine.

Roger is a legend. Respect. The manoomin fact sheet I made a few years back for @anishinaabekdem.bsky.social, why not. Roger is quoted at the very end. Can't quick find the larger version where I more prominently featured his words. Super cool that recognition was fought for and won. ♥️🌾💧

It totally is idk what the big deal is just because y'all don't have low cloud cover and freezing temps doesn't make you special

GodDAMNIT why did no one tell me I'm back home now and it's cold Crossing fingers for tomorrow I guess idk

♥️

Damnit Michigan.

Everything I will say and more is in this blog post. Great use of early generation satellite images and reanalysis data, showing how and why wind direction, fetch, and speed changed as the ship crossed the lake, with the worst near the end. cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/satellite-bl...

Wow a Edmund Fitzgerald thing I haven't seen before. That sounded sarcastic it wasn't I genuinely haven't seen this. Good find.

The trauma! The trauma that these precious children are going to will damage them in a profound way. I hope this #ICELawlessness is punished severely! Call your 2 Senators & your Congressional rep at 202-224-3121.

Matty Moroun is probably gonna spin right out of his grave the moment the Gordie Howe opens, and that thought makes me SO happy.

3 years ago Elon enabled the funniest day in Twitter history.

The Dossin Great Lakes Museum being closed today really feels like an oversight. (Okay, there's a sold out ceremony at 6. Still though.)

Thought there might be another stuck ship but I think they're just getting mail. By the way fun trivia, the only floating zip code in the US is on the Detroit River. 48222, JW Wescott II, if you want to mail a #GreatLakes ship. The more you know. 💫

Ms Rachel says The New York Times asked her if she’s funded by Hamas

Edmund Fitzgerald thread. Gnight skysite. Gnight Lakes. Gnight the witch of November, come stealing.

Well that's enough very justified rage for the night. It's not but I should sleep. Edmund Fitzgerald anniversary day, y'all. Take care of yourselves and each other. Because Lord knows that's all we've fucking got right now. youtu.be/FuzTkGyxkYI?...

Try me.

they should do the senate like jury duty, just call up some random people like "okay you are now a senator for this vote" things couldnt possibly be worse

Everyone’s like “so what do these pardons DO??” and honestly I’d say it probably has more to do with this than anything substantive, at least for now It’s a communicative pardon

To say this was Dems voting, e.g., to fund ICE paychecks isn't unfair or an exaggeration. It's literally true. That they'd already given up on even trying to do anything about that doesn't change it, it's still in there. This is what constitutional accountability for the power of the purse is for.

As someone with stents in my brain who relies on health care... Yeah. Like even healthy business owners needed that shit. We're getting in to an age where there's no small business, period. No more single proprietor, no more mom-and-pop, nothing.

a thread for screaming

The thing about ACA is that if an American describes how it works to someone from literally anywhere else, the other person will be utterly horrified at its deliberate cruelty. The way the horror of pre-ACA healthcare sounds to an American, is basically how ACA sounds to everyone else on earth.

LITERALLY HOURS. THEY COULD HAVE WAITED HOURS.

JFC the accuracy

My friends who work in government have gone into debt to protect people's healthcare, they are being fucking betrayed by wealthy Senators who never stopped getting paid.

People I know will lose healthcare and could barely afford bare minimum as it is. It's not fucking easy to demand we keep fighting when you're fucking sick and hurting and can't get fucking help to feel better. Fuck.

American: and that's how it works Anyone else: oh my God that is horrifying, what the fuck American: no no I'm not talking about what it was like before when it was evil, I'm talking about what it's like nowadays Anyone else: oh my God

The ACA is less than the bare minimum if the US government wants to claim it isn’t intentionally doing eugenics on its citizens

*Looks at Democrats winning elections, polls turning hard on Trump and the GoP, and thousands of flights getting cancelled before holidays which could be completely blamed on Republicans. "It's simply not working. So we are going fuck millions of Americans out of insurance! It's the only way!"

The language of this pardon is extremely broad. It includes “all United States citizens for conduct relating to the advice, creation, organization, execution, submission, support, voting, activities, participation in, or advocacy for or of any slate or proposed slate of Presidential electors…”

So why did he say "some mill in Wisconsin" and not "a mill in Wisconsin".

TFW you see yet another "omg the water is so clear and pretty" Michigan videos on TikTok and you're like well, time to be a killjoy again I guess. ... Dude was bragging on Lake St Clair clarity l mean

I was at the Sierra Club during the period described in this article and although I have my criticisms, it gets the issues in the Club fundamentally wrong. A 🧵 www.nytimes.com/2025/11/07/u...
