as a person who frequently asks the question “but what do we want to accomplish in this decision?” these are tough times

Ditched the Tesla. it was never a bad car or anything but it no longer sparked joy. On to new adventures!

Driving the tesla on its last road trip with Gary here, to trade it in. And a not a moment too soon!

all of these are A M A Z I N G

two more days and we ditch the tesla

Trying to watch the new season of Yellowjackets and the Paramount+ app is so maddeningly bad its actually preventing us from watching!

1/n Please see our new paper in Nature Communications! We used 1,851 tree-ring fire-scar sites and contemporary fire perimeters to quantify the prevalence of wildfire from 1600-1880 compared to 1984-2022. 🧪🌍🔥 Our key findings are as follows ...

Kendrick killed Drake so he could save your life

Oops 😬

On the bright side, this excellent from the CA Dept of Education: "our offer is this: *nothing.*"

The first Senators to actually do anything about the Trump admin

As a fire professional this is interesting to read. takeaways 1) its unreasonable to assume individuals can assume all responsibility to harden their homes and b) absent community level planning and support theres a hard limit. I wonder if we are going to see a resurgence of firewise V2 type plans

NYT is fixing to lose push notification privileges real soon

Marks outie is really such a dick. The innies really are like the best version of all of them

In the first 100 days I will dig down into the place of honor. On day one I will issue an Executive Order that the radical woke warning signs be removed and anyone perpetuating the "dangerous and repulsive" lie to be terminated. I will restore the country by touching the ancient treasures.

our new household motto is Unsubscribe and Dislike

First there were books. Then a movie based on the books. Then a book adapted from that. Then a stage musical. Now a theatrical release. Truly, there is no rest for the Wicked

Cord Jefferson, quitting Instagram, sums many things up: “I don’t need Instagram to be a haven for free speech for the same reason I don’t need a Jamba Juice or a Hooters to be a haven for free speech.”

and part two - oddly enough I was awake in the middle of the night thinking about Pu when I scrolled upon this thread

fascinating thread on the early days of plutonium at los alamos

Since ppl care abt air purification suddenly, I just want to share that Corsi Rosenthal boxes can be pretty design too. I made these a couple years ago. Plus raising it up, u can get 5 filters instead of 4 AND there’s benefits to having it @ breathing level. Disco tape optional. youtu.be/lbWiZSsEqPg

@danorsong.bsky.social hi!

Direct hit on the Sunset Fire in Hollywood. 🎯 Nice work, @lafd.bsky.social #LAFD c/o @nbcla.bsky.social 👨🏼‍🚒

WATCH: “You really get the idea that people are the boss on the street, & not machines.” The GREAT mini-film on one of the most inspiring world cities, #Utrecht Netherlands, via exceptional urban film-maker @streetfilms.bsky.social with @modacitylife.com @bicycledutch.bsky.social & more. #Dutch

1/ Devastating to see images of fires in Los Angeles & impacts on those who live in the fire zone, their pets, & local wildlife. Thankful for firefighters. If you live away from direct fire danger but are inhaling harmful wildfire smoke, you can substantially reduce the amount you inhale.

New episode is up! We talk to Derek Guy, @dieworkwear.bsky.social—aka the Menswear Guy—about how dense, walkable cities influence what people wear, what the great fashion capitals of the world have in common, how the housing crisis is affecting style, and much more. thewaroncars.org/2025/01/07/1...

Apple TV+ is free this weekend. Recs! Black Bird: a tight, sad true-crime thriller about a callow felon who befriends a serial killer in hopes of reducing his own sentence by getting intel. Paul Walter Hauser won awards as the killer but Taran Egerton does great work in an unusual role as the rat.

dream transit option honestly- I used to enjoy flying but now its pretty much under duress only

Im no defender of the cybertruck - far from it, I think its ugly and misguided - but I do get prickly when EV safety in general is maligned. I think its remarkable that even with explosives detonated in the bed, none of the videos or reports Ive seen show indication that the HV battery was involved

I know its early days but we have a strong contender for image of the year already, and I think that’s remarkable

I think most of these are not for me, but i know someone they are for!
