This would move public opinion quite dramatically against the death penalty. There is a reason that states do not broadcast their executions. They know that public sentiment would quickly shift.

Sadly, Tragedeigh is not in the Social Security Administration database.

There are a lot of alternate spellings of retired names, so it's reasonable to assume that some of the unused names are functionally retired. @franklinjamesl.bsky.social

For all the hand-wringing about the National Hurricane Center's use of the storm name "Isaias", it was the 7th most popular male name for babies born in 2025 beginning with the letter "I". Here are the top "I" names since 1950. Green boxes are current NHC storm names. Orange boxes are retired names.

The current National Weather Service watch/Warning map not only contains offshore Hurricane Warnings in the Gulf of Mexico, but also Hurricane Force Wind Warnings in the Aleutian Islands and Bering Sea. 🌀 @alaskawx.bsky.social

A front stretching from Japan to Alaska across the entire Pacific Ocean seems unusual.

At my kids' school, when you brought the kids in late, you had to sign them in on a computer at the front desk. One of the "reasons" in the computer's drop down menu was "Moose".

The January-September 2026 period was the warmest on record for the Contiguous U.S. Only slightly warmer than Jan-Sep 2012. 36% of the Contiguous U.S. set the record warmest Jan-Sep in 2026. In 2012, it was 34%. In all other years since 1940 combined, it was 30%.

Global sea surface temperatures (SSTs) in September 2026 shattered the previous September record and were only slightly lower than the all-time record set last month. September is typically the 6th warmest month for SSTs - but this September would have set a record in all but 1 other month. 🔥🔥🔥

September 2026 was the 2nd warmest September on record (2023 was the warmest). 20% of the Earth had their single warmest September on record (since 1940). This is twice the area that was record warm in 2023 (10.1%).
