Peace Talks Day is off to a great start.

Two IDF soldier giving 30 days military detention after they were photographed smashing a statue of Jesus. FFS they are shooting children in the head! But a statue violation is worthy of more?

Virginia and California let the people vote on redistricting.

Texas and Florida forced it.

It’s coming in so fast l can’t keep up. These articles hit less than 5 minutes apart. I haven’t finished reading the 1st one yet.

Spoiler: it passed.
Looks like Virginia voters are fed up. Posting headlines.

So much false equivalence in media on gerrymandering in Texas vs California & Virginia. California and Virginia maps approved by the voters. That's a huge difference not enough people pointing out

Yes!
Virginia voters have approved a Democrat-backed redistricting plan, according to Decision Desk HQ, greenlighting a new congressional map that could net the party as many as four seats ahead of the midterm elections.

It's #climatecasino time!

I thought the over on this one was a lock and the Climate Casino was going to win bigtime. However, times have changed.

A godzilla El Nino could lose the Climate Casino a lot of fake dollars.

I see El Nino coming
It's rolling round the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine
Since I don't know when ...

Trends in CO2 - NOAA Global Monitoring Laboratory GML conducts research on greenhouse gas and carbon cycle feedbacks, changes in aerosols, and surface radiation, and recovery of stratospheric ozone.

Could someone please tell me why NOAA hasn't updated the GHGs this month?

It's getting towards the end of April and the usual update happens on the 5th of the month.

Breaking News!
Code: Preliminary Mega-Yikes!!!

Preliminary SSTs are spiking near a new record all-time high. The final data will take about 2 weeks to be posted. With the record ocean heatwave in the Eastern pacific and a rapidly developing El Nino, hang on to your tenterhooks!

Your 'doom quote' for today:

"It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it."

Inside a jubilant DC conference where ‘the climate deniers are in charge now’ Trump’s EPA chief Lee Zeldin’s presence shows how much influence climate deniers now have, experts say

Your 'moment of doom' for Apr. 15, 2026 ~ Ignorance is strength.

"'Good news,' read a banner outside the main ballroom, erected by the CO2 Coalition, a climate-denying non-profit that co-sponsored the conference. 'There is no climate crisis.'"

SST data is preliminary for 2 weeks, but now we know new daily SST records were set on March 17th & 18th.

On the other hand, is the latest record just a ghost from preliminary SST data, or is something truly f&%ked happening? We'll have to wait 2 weeks to know.

Stay tuned!

Global warming is making the strongest hurricanes stronger » Yale Climate Connections Recent studies link human-caused warming to more powerful, more destructive storms worldwide.

Your 'moment of doom' for Apr. 16, 2026 ~ a hard wind

"... we now need a 'Category 6' rating for hurricanes with winds of 193 mph (311 km/h) or greater, because global warming is expected to cause significant increases in maximum potential intensity."

Since we're now on 'Godzilla El Nino' watch, I decided to create the daily color stripes for the Nino 3.4 region, using the 1982-2011 baseline (first 30 years of data).

Will 2026 see Nino 3.4 go beyond 3.0°C? The climate 8-ball just scratched.

In a rush, I left the last 34 days worth of data off of this image in my post earlier today. You can now see the change towards El Nino happening over the last few days with the first hints of orange on the last bar on the right hand side.

Sigh.

Voting on spy powers at 2am will definitely help with trust in the government!

A spiral galaxy from the Galaxy Zoo: Hubble project, classified by 48 volunteers.

A spiral galaxy, observed with the Hubble Space Telescope in the COSMOS survey.

It is at redshift 0.72 (lookback time 6.62 billion years) with coordinates (149.49427, 2.69884).

48 volunteers classified this galaxy in Galaxy Zoo: Hubble.

Israel bombs other countries, commits genocide and then claims THEY are the victims. They are simply Nazis of a different stripe.

This is what happens when politicians want to be celebrities.

More outstanding work by The Great Jessica Tarlov.

It is challenging to address ignorance in the United States.

Let’s count on it!
