Seeing @rossbryant.bsky.social on @norollsbarred.bsky.social BotC is something I never knew I needed. Much excite!

I really regret opening the internet today. I regret it everyday, but I really regret it today.

How the Rams were last year WITHOUT Garrett and Donald...

Damn it, Google… The last Maps upgrade was really nice too. I thought when our lives were taken over by a cabal of oligarchs, they wouldn’t all be such p*$$¡€$. 🔥🔥🔥

Initial analyses of satellite images and seismic data by @watershedlab.bsky.social & @kristencook.bsky.social suggest that the collapse of a high glacier caused the flash flood disaster in Nepal www.newscientist.com/article/2586...

The Ross fire in North Texas has now burned over 80,000 acres, as viewed in this satellite imagery since yesterday afternoon.

Wow, I didn’t realize the mainstream media was still capable of properly covering political scandals. Now do Ken Paxton.

Okay, now it’s Republicans’ turn to kick out the most prominent rapist in their party

After this level of ass-kissing, would it be a surprise if the FIFA President, Gianni Infantino, somehow ended up in the Epstein Files?

“Europe is increasingly paying the costs of a hotter world it has failed to prepare for…The EU’s science advisers warned that efforts to adapt to a hotter planet were insufficient, incremental and often coming too late.” www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

Hell yeah! Good for 🇪🇬! Let VAR try and overturn that one. #ARGvsEGY #WorldCup2026

VAR superseding judgement calls on the field is out of control. If the foul was that egregious it should have been called in real-time, not after an incredible run across the full pitch. Seems it was ONLY reviewed because it resulted in a goal, not due to the action itself. Ridiculous. #WorldCup

PKs!!!!! LFG!!!

Look at that satellite tornado in the velocity animation (right panel) 🤩

Good article on the USFS Research Office closures. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/03/c...

The heat signature of the Artemis II rocket could be seen as it launched through Earth's atmosphere.

All regional offices shuttered. All research facilities, and ongoing local studies, gone. HQ moved to the backyard of the most anti-public-lands politicians, knowing career personnel won’t follow. -> Decimate the agency -> Sell off our public lands -> A few people fill their pockets at our expense.

Artemis II is headed for the moon! GOES-19 caught this amazing view of the exhaust plume from the rocket as it launched from Cape Canaveral.

Awesome view of @NASAArtemis II, as viewed from NOAA weather satellite. Note the dark (warmer) dot launching off from Cape Canaveral and off to the northeast! #flwx #artemis

The Western US at the FO stage of FAFO... 😬 "‘On a whole other level’: rapid snow melt-off in American west stuns scientists. Experts say brutal March heat has left critical snowpack at record-low levels – and key basins in uncharted territory." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

We’re gearing up to potentially have one of the most devastating wildfire seasons ever, & we’re now reorganizing the 2 largest land management agencies in the country. On top DOGE cuts decimating USFS last year, and further tearing apart USFS Research which is already extremely limited. 😖

Over and over the message this administration sends to federal employees is "Break the law, and so long as you're doing it to support our political causes, we'll let it slide." It is a recipe for corruption and impunity. Discipline has to mean something.

Most days, humanity’s outlook seems bleak, but stories like this give me hope for a future where technology is used to benefit society harmoniously with our environment, rather than exploiting the planet & its people for profits. Is it naive? Absolutely. Is it worth striving for? Absolutely.

The Declaration of Independence specifies 27 grievances with King George III and Britain. Donald Trump and his regime have committed at least 20 of those same offenses highlighted in yellow. #NoKings

Happy to share that I am writing in my off time again!

Hmmm, no way putting a controversial name on something that inherently circulates around a community could be detrimental. Banks will have to take these out of circulation en masse when these notes are vandalized.

Remember this when it’s said there’s no money for things that would help the working class

*Cue: “Are we the baddies?” Meme, Followed by the “Always Have Been” meme.

Truly a heat wave of historic proportions. We'll be able to clearly identify the outliers of 🌡️ extreme temperatures & resulting ❄️ snowpack levels caused from this for decades.

The aggregate Daily Maximum Temperatures—going back to 1979—across a swath of the Southwest (incl., CA, NV, UT, CO, AZ, & NM) shows an extreme outlier in mid-to-late March of ≅26°C. This obliterates the highest values observed in March (by ≅5°C), but also tops any value seen through EARLY MAY! #cowx

Phoenix, AZ just set the record for the earliest occurrence of a recorded 100°F temperature (March 18, 2026) The previous record for earliest occurrence of a recorded 100°F temperature in Phoenix was March 26, 1988 The average first occurrence of a recorded 100°F temperature in Phoenix is May 10

😳🤯🫥 And yet there’s never any money for. • Healthcare • Homelessness • Food Assistance • Teachers/Nurses Salaries • Student Loan Forgiveness • Education • Science (across all disciplines) • Public Infrastructure Investment • etc, etc, on and on… But our National Debt & deficit continues to soar
