Wohoo! Congrats @nicolegasparini.bsky.social! Well deserved.

What a year. What an end. #cignatty #hoohoohoohoosiers #IU

4-panel comic. (1) PERSON 1: We haven’t checked in on the geology department for a while. I wonder if they’re doing okay. (2) PERSON 2 with ponytail: I’ll go see what they’re up to. (3) [Person 2 opens door to room where a person is gesturing at a projector screen and explaining to two other people] PERSON 3: 49 million years ago, Heart Mountain, Wyoming slid sideways 15 miles like a giant stone hovercraft.
