There it is. Literally saying the US and Russia are working together to take away the independence of another country. I'm wondering if any of our press is gonna pick this one up? Seems like headline material?

The summit in London has begun. European and NATO leaders have gathered to discuss the future of humanity and Ukraine, without the United States. This is the largest reconfiguration of nations since World War 2.

Trilobite encounter. Ceraurus species in sterling silver on the left, bronze on the right. One of my earliest experiments that worked; both have a liver-of-sulfur patina, but as you can see, if you time it just right, silver will pick up an incredible blue. #sciart

After yesterday's events in the White House, Haltbakk Bunkers, one of Norway's largest marine fuel companies, appears to have announced that it will no longer refuel American Navy vessels. "not a liter will be delivered until Trump is finished" threadreaderapp.com/thread/18958...

📌NOTE: Immediately after the vile attack on Zelensky by Putin's puppets Friday, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries should have called a joint press conference and explained to the American public the significance, heinousness and danger of that sickening surrender. 📌They should STILL be talking now.

Echinoderms are so strange. The center specimen is a stunning cystoid, Cheirocystis sp. There are also two carpoids, Quebecarpus sp. All are pyritized or replaced with fool's gold. This is from the Upper Ordovician Neuville Fm. in Quebec. #FossilFriday

This is a small crinoid with a hitchhiker. Cyathicrinites with a brittlestar, Calyptactis confragosus, wrapped around the anal tube to steal food. #FossilFriday

he's really so stupid and I can't stand it. if you warmed up mars and melted the water, the water would evaporate into space. Mars can't have a habitable atmosphere in its current state bc it has no magnetic field. solar winds strip away everything that isn't stuck to the surface.

Whaaaat evolutionary advantage could having arms like this have given a crinoid?! A truly magnificent weirdo is the Clathrocrinus clathratus. Hails from the Bond Formation, Pontiac, Illinois. Pennsylvanian aged. FOV roughly 6cm. #FossilFriday

In celebration of my monograph being accepted for publication, here's some images of everyone's favourite New York state fossil, Eurypterus, for #FossilFriday! Even among these standard compression fossils, the detail on the cuticle is exceptional. ⚒️🧪

Tate is like Trump in this sense: the most grotesque thing is not that he exists, but that he’s hugely popular, and what that says about us as a species.
