Bluesky wouldn't update for a while there so I started wondering if something interesting and newsworthy happened
Been working through this for the past few years and the best thing has been physical therapy, Aleve and exercises the PT taught me to sort-of get things to re-align.
The TV we have now takes a million clicks to get to a show even if you were watching the same channel the day before. Back in the day we'd just leave it on the channel and just turn on the TV. Yes, I am in the middle of a star trek next generation rewatch. Why do you ask?

Science is good. We should fund it.

Unironically: scientists get on this

Happy #FossilFriday. Check out these awesome silicified Cambrian cyanobacteria fossils from the Harkless Formation from western Nevada from a publication in Palaios by @spicegirl.bsky.social. 🧪⚒️🔬
I thought the exact same!
So much fun to work with @msobol.bsky.social on this review article!
Phylogenomics and genomics to understand early life 🧬 🧬
Things that help calm the nervous system, quickly:
- Box breathing (in for 4, hold for 4, out for 4, hold for 4, repeat)
- Immerse your face in cold water (activates mammalian dive reflex)
- Humming (stimulates vagus nerve)
- Exercise (anything helps, outside even better)
- Impeachment and removal
Such toe floof!
Personally I think when a world leader announces “Tune in tonight at 8pm Eastern to watch the world end” like it’s the fucking season premiere of Roseanne we should have a different leader the next day.
Donald Trump must be removed from office for threatening war crimes and genocide.
Speaker Johnson: bring the House back into session.
Invoking the 25th Amendment and impeachment must be on the table, but Congress should also move on a War Powers resolution to stop Trump.
Just because he backed off shouldn’t stop efforts to remove him. He is dangerous and cannot be left in power.
I think it's bad for the President to threaten to annihilate an entire culture and i do not think you are being alarmist if you take his threats seriously and literally.
you have to get him out of office and you have to do it today
even if it gets blocked you force an impeachment vote right now
how else can you live with yourself if he follows through with this and you didn’t do everything you could to stop it
The time to do something is now, and we must act.
The President's comments are deranged, dangerous, and if carried out — illegal. I call on Republican leadership in Congress to stop being bystanders and take action to stop Trump. We cannot have an unstable man acting with zero guardrails or accountability.
The President is threatening to destroy an entire civilization.
Congress must finally reclaim its war power from this increasingly dangerous president.
Before he creates more chaos and destruction.
Before more servicemembers get killed.
