This one's new for me! Very lovely!

It's friday, the day when i scour the internet to find out if there are any updates on the release of Shorsey Season 5. Treat to self. Disappointment.

Thank you so much for trying. I'm SURE I saw one from the contemporary era but I can't find it anywhere. Did my imagination backfill this?

Oh thanks for checking, I didn't even think of that

Screen grab of the USGS "Did You Feel It" page for a magnitude 3.8 earthquake that occurred on 8/27/2025 at 02:17:48 (UTC). The page shows that one person in Winnemucca completed the "Did You Feel It" survey and contributed to the USGS shake map.

Bless you, citizen of Winnemucca, who filed the sole "Did You Feel It" response to the earthquake of 2 hrs ago

i made a weird looking one in chatGPT (well labeled as such) to stand in for the cartoon I couldn't find

Sorry for never evver posting here, but does anyone know where to find a cartoon depicting continents breaking through oceanic crust like an icebreaker? I believe I have seen one that dates from an argument against continental drift but i cannot seem to locate this on the entire internet

i dislike beige

The preservation of open space and public lands for future generations is among the most fundamental promises of America and is the very purpose of having a government: to protect for all what would be destroyed by short term profit-seeking, so we all may enjoy the much greater long-term benefits.

i was thinking the same thing

GEOLOGISTS -- Poleta Folds is for sale!?!?

haven't read the paper yet but the title is certainly refreshing:

The 2021 Mw 5.6 Earthquake in the Guyana Shield, South America: An Intraplate Event with No Reason to Occur

Marcelo Assumpção et al. out this week in The Seismic Record

if anyone happens to read a truly terrible article in a famously factually-challenged UK news rag today that relates to earthquakes in Nevada, please ignore it. The headline is wackadoodle and the article makes no sense. People behind this kind of drivel should be ashamed of themselves.

these numbers include indirect costs? so if indirect costs are reduced as a percentage, the success rate will not scale exactly with the funding cut here? just checking that i understand what this means

Perhaps leaving scholarly communication in the hands of researchers would be a better use of research funds

deepest apologies

Glad to see this step. Surprised it took this long

why was maroon 5 allowed to cover pachabel's cannon

Thanks for featuring our research @seismosocam.bsky.social !

The wind channeled between the casino hotels downtown could definitely knock a rider off a bike! Google tells me Lemond is from the Washoe Valley so he ought to know

elite cyclists train in wind tunnels but they could just move to Reno

Thanks for highlighting this Andrew.

I love scrolling through my instagram and liking everything because I carefully curated it for things I like to see

I deeply appreciate how The Orville has carried on the great Star Trek tradition of making every habitable planet look like a different county park in the greater Los Angeles area

HAPPY WOMEN IN SPORTS DAY

screen grab of an email which reads "Thanks for the invitation but I don't work with MDPI due to its involvement with predatory publishing practices and general harm done to the research community by this business model. The invitation to edit an issue only peripherally related to my expertise reinforces my impression of the lack of meaningful scientific oversight at this publishing house. "

just because some great scientists volunteer for journals run by particular publishers, does not mean YOU should volunteer too -- your time and expertise are too valuable to throw away to for-profit publishers. Support society journals and volunteer where benefits stay in the research community!

time spent assembling information for annual review: 4 hrs. time spent wrangling the online submission system: 8 hrs and counting!?!? 👎 interfolio!!!
