It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

I’m curious what the precedent is for tropical/subtropical lows that form near the dateline, track over the Hawaiian island chain, and up into EPAC/So Cal is. Is this pattern a typical Kona low? GFS and ECMWF both tracking this one due to hit early Nov for west coast. @weatherwest.bsky.social

Remarkable that being asked questions we don’t like is the straw that broke the back of the legal system.

I have never seen so many Florida license plates in California as I have in the last 6 months. Feels like I see Florida and Georgia plates more than neighboring states these days.

For the last 2 years I have been tracking a generational change in the nature of software development, and I think I've finally decided where all of this turmoil is going to end up. It's good news, but not for everybody. https://seldo.com/posts/we-are-all-product-engineers-now/

$9 diesel is bonkers. Something tells me it’s not even the top

On Monday, Aug 31 at 3pm PT, I'll have a live virtual office hour focused solely on potential for an East Pacific tropical storm or hurricane to affect California next weekend (mostly likely indirectly, but with slight chance of a more direct approach). .

The amount of misinformation and overhype coming from what I will call, weather content creators (as opposed to scientists) is disheartening. The search for engagement shouldn’t come at the expense of accuracy.its so prevalent on the socials.

Made a terrible mistake by putting a post up on Angi that I’m planning on doing work to my house. It’s been 48hrs of non stop phone calls. Had one guy just bomb calling me over and over until I picked up. So very never using Angi again.

Not being aware of racism is an example of white privilege. Racism is truly why we can’t have nice things. I wish more people realized this.

My grandfather is rolling in his grave as we speak.

I'll have much more to say about this during Monday's YouTube livestream, but it's really start time to start talking about and planning for the increased risk of coastal flooding (from elevated sea levels & wave action) & inland flooding (from heavy rainfall) this winter in CA.

Waiting in a doctors office waiting room. A woman waiting in here is eating an apple. Why would you wait to eat the apple until you got here.

I've got 3 live virtual public events on YouTube scheduled over next 8 days (see recent posts for links): 1) Aug 3, 1p PT: WA wildfire disaster & bigger picture 2) Aug 4, 6p: "Super El Niño Town Hall" (CA Sen. Mike McGuire) 3) Aug 10, 1p: El Niño update: The latest forecast

I think one question one should ask oneself before launching a feature like "generate fake satellite imagery" is "does this have any legitimate use-cases?" Everybody who approved this stupid feature should be fired. www.npr.org/2026/07/31/n...

I like to gauge the state of things by going to the grocery store and getting peppered with comments of disbelief about the prices. “Holy shit this was $2 cheaper last week!” Total rando as I walked by them looking at chips.

Private equity is buying America's hospitals and nursing homes. The playbook: pile on debt, sell the building, cut staff. The result, one landmark study found: patient deaths up about 11%. #news #information #privateequity

Dude, actual leftist extremists would be calling for the forced seizure of wealth for redistribution, destruction of the capitalist system, radical measures to stem climate change, and more. Not “let’s tax rich people a little more and give kids free lunch.”

Okay, folks: The big El Niño update is now out on Weather West! This sure looks like it's going to be a dramatic year from a global climate perspective, and there are major implications for extreme events (across California, the U.S. West, & well beyond).

The problem here is all of these people know they're in a race against the clock to get all of this done before the tide turns. And by "all of this," I basically mean the destruction of anything that could criticize the post-Constitutional technofeudalist society they're hastily trying to stand up.

Hey there little bud

Science textbooks narrow-mindedly coalesce around a very narrow range of theories, while new age bookshops are refreshingly diverse.

Surprised they didn’t wait for the last day of the term to issue this!

On Tuesday, May 12th at 3pm PT, I'll have a live virtual office hour devoted entirely to the rapidly-developing El Niño event, including the rising potential for a very strong event by late summer or autumn as well as regional to global implications.

The court has simply recreated the pre-Brown world in allowing racial discrimination across a broad number fields as long as it is “facially neutral,” gutting the Reconstruction Amendments in the process.

IRL I took my family down to the oldest’s tennis class at the community courts. Started a totally normal and friendly conversation with a mom whose kid was in our class. Halfway through class, her husband shows up and won’t stop talking about low-t men and women being horrible. Extremely bizarre.

If you really want me adding my two cents: it’s usually a 50+yo yt guy who sits in the left lane at +-3mph speed limit unwilling to move over for faster traffic. It’s the same energy patched bikers roll together but in more of a lone wolf fashion. Mid calf white tube sock crowd. 🤷‍♂️

Dilley is evil and must be closed. It's a goddamn concentration camp. A moral abomination. People are going to Hell over this.

This is the least he should do. Resigning from the House is also necessary.

as a californian this whole situation makes me doubly mad bc swalwell could’ve easily been the dem nominee against a maga candidate and doomed his campaign if all this came out during the general — possibly imperiling ALL californians.

A model for the rest of us!

losing contact with the earth for 40 minutes sounds nice

that the president is making unhinged threats of war crimes on easter sunday should be an immediate presidency-ending scandal and that the media is rewriting this as just a normal negotiating tactic should be a career-ending scandal for everyone involved
