If Republicans could just run the government competently while they control the presidency, house and senate, they wouldn’t have to worry about gerrymandering, SAVE Act, or any other efforts to rig the midterms. Maybe the Iran War will save them since voters love it so much.
Hey folks! If you happen to be building seminar/colloquia series and you want someone who can talk volcanoes and magmatic systems, ping me! I have highly technical stuff on zircon geochronology as well as high accessible stuff like how to figure out the most dangerous volcano on the planet.

Trump went from making insane genocidal threats this morning to hyping the “golden age” of Iran hours later, and he received no concessions in between. He’s an absolute basket case who needs to be removed from power before he follows through on one of his mass murder fantasies.
23 people could stop this genocidal war criminal. That’s it. 23.
20 Republican senators and 3 republican reps in the house and he’d be out of politics forever. But they won’t.
They’re addicted to power. A drug so strong they’d rather see a civilization die than give it up.
Earth and Moon from DSCOVR NASA's Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) aboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite captured this unique view of the Moon as it moved in front of the sunlit side of Earth last month. This view shows the fully illuminated “dark side” of the moon that is never visible from Earth. Ian Regan processed this version of the image to account for the Moon's motion. NASA / NOAA / Ian Regan
I hadn't seen this before. This is pretty remarkable.

“It’s difficult to cover him in a way that conveys how unhinged he is. Journalists are trained to be like, ‘OK, what did he say that was newsworthy?’ So you convey that to your audience. But in reality, when you actually watch, you see he's full of hatred, lying constantly, and very incoherent.”
The Republicans in his cabinet refuse to invoke the 25th Amendment…
The Republicans in Congress refuse to impeach the motherfucker…
And lastly, the Republicans on the SCOTUS have granted him “absolute immunity”…
This nightmare continues for one reason, and one reason only…
REPUBLICANS! 😎✨
Long vertical quartz crystal with a transparent pyramidal top. The bottom is milkier with jagged edges. It sits on a metal mount on a frosted plinth in front of a grey background. At the Royal Ontario Museum.
Happy Geologists’ Day!!! Geology is for everyone, especially those who love cool rocks and minerals like this quartz!!! #GeoscienceBluesky #GeologistsDay
The 25th amendment exists for a reason. This madman is the reason. This post is the reason.
@SpeakerJohnson and @LeaderJohnThune, call Congress back into session today. Do your fucking jobs and defend America from this demented and deranged lunatic.
Deep purple blue nitrile gloved hand holds translucent slide of obsidian. It looked like dark Smokey glass with black flowy bands across with a small patch of red. It’s held above a white tray on a black background. At the Canadian Museum of Nature.
I just saw that it’s Geologists Day today!!! To share my excitement about geology, here is one of my favourite types of rock: obsidian!! This is a thin polished slice showing flow banding. #GeologistsDay #GeoscienceBluesky ⚒️🧪
Happy #FossilFriday! This week Dr. Cary Woodruff is visiting #MOR to study the largest animals to walk the Earth, the #sauropods. Here, Woodruff is standing next to the hindlimb of a #Diplodocus (#MOR738) from the #Jurassic #MorrisonFormation of #Wyoming.
What will happen to the 82 USFS experimental forests around the country? Many sites have decades-long experiments that are tracking how forests are changed by timber harvesting practices and climate change. As I say here, “you can't just pick up an experimental forest site and move it to SLC.”
Seems to me if you think you have divine sanction for your warmongering when it goes badly you have to consider the opposite proposition but they never seem to!

I don’t know if she’ll ever be forgiven, but this moment will never be forgotten.
Goodbye and good riddance to Pam Bondi.
You were exceptionally terrible at your job.
Activists hold sign UNFIT
We heard the meaningless rambling of a confused, dementia ridden old man last night.
He is unfit to lead this country.
He must resign or be removed.
He’s destroying US society & economy and our allies’.
He *must* resign or be removed.
💙
The true tragedy lies in the fact that he was elected and permitted to serve as President, leading to the current challenges the world is facing.
Upper section of Multnomah Falls cascading over a rocky ledge covered in moss and orange lichen. It lands in a pool with a large rock covered in moss in the middle of it. Green leaves partially obscure the lower right side of the photo. There are tall trees growing on the cliffs at the top of the waterfall.

More colorful bentonite hills, in this case formed from the Jurassic-aged Morrison formation.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but we are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian.
Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.
Because the Strait of Hormuz and the geological forces that created it are in the news, I present hot-off-the-presses work by @aramfathian.bsky.social, @activefaults.bsky.social et al. doi.org/10.1016/j.qu...
Even a dog knows a piece of shit human when it see one.
8 million No Kings protesters
Zero police officers beaten
Zero police officers killed
Zero feces smeared on walls.
A No Kings protest sign in the form of a giant Wordle grid reading FELON THIEF LOSER CREEP FRAUD TRUMP Not entirely accurate in terms of gameplay but close enough.
Good one in NYC.
