Do you like hurricane and tornado warnings? Do you not want them privatized and edited by Trump's sharpie? Well, Musk is breaching NOAA, an agency that's trustworthiness is more critical than ever before: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

My first and definitely last time working with the Los Angeles Times. Editing out the most urgent point of an OpEd in the minutes before sending to press while then also assigning a title and image that suggest an argument entirely opposite to the author’s clear intent is pretty shitty.

Here come the first tariffs (Canada and Mexico). Everyone hold onto your wallets! www.bbc.com/news/article...

We'll try and keep the political posts to a minimum. That said; the only way to defend our wildlife is to become active politically and go after the politicians going after our parks. Get in this fight, retweet it and follow us at @altyellonatpark.org Because it's a world worth saving

This is AMAZING! Congratulations to everyone! 💍💍

Still watching Hunter x Hunter. About 2/3 way thru in the middle of the Chimera Ant Arc. Still enjoying this anime after 95+ episodes. 🪁

Learned a lot the from Beatles Get Back docu-series but a favorite is they used to snack on buttered toast and marmalade during their recording sessions. You can see toast and mugs of tea everywhere in the studio. Yes, that is toast on the floor next to John Lennon’s dirty white sneaker.

Saw the Tamara de Lempicka exhibition at the de Young Museum in San Francisco which I highly recommend. Her work is peak Art Deco.

For the first time, a location beyond Earth has been listed as vulnerable by the World Monuments Fund. The Fund included the moon on its 2025 Watch list due to the dawn of a new Space Age and the moon hosting more than 90 historic lunar sites relating to humanity’s presence on it: cnn.it/4hgqYhQ

How thoughtful of NYT to do it in pictures so the incoming POTUS can understand it.

live your life in such a way that the entire world doesn't burst out laughing when your rocket blows up

There’s an enormous amount of misinformation out there about the fires and the response. Some of these lies and distortions are dangerous and could cost lives. Our Gov @gavinnewsom.bsky.social has launched a website that lays out the facts. Please share: californiafirefacts.com

Gofundme should not be our national safety net
