As one year comes to a close and a new one is on the horizon, I’m reflecting on the opportunity we have in front of us for 2026 to be a year of positive and dramatic change for the country - if we stay focused. I’m looking forward to doing my part, and I know you are too.

There’s a story in the Upanishads of the Kasturi Mriga (Musk deer), which is not only a story but also a metaphor for life and happiness.

For more insight into the tectonic background of today’s M7.7 #earthquake in Myanmar I’d recommend this blog post and the original article on extrusion tectonics. There is also a video hiding somewhere on YouTube that illustrates this experiment perfectly. 🧪⚒️ blogs.egu.eu/divisions/ts...

This could be devastating. This is strike-slip mechanism on a plate boundary, much like the 1906 quake on the San Andreas. The rupture length is at least 300km. The capital, Yangon, is near the fault, but I can’t yet see if the fault ruptured towards Yangon or away from it

Much of what President Trump said in his address to Congress “was inflammatory, radical, and dangerous,” @sbg1.bsky.social writes. “But it was also familiar, his by-now-standard mix of braggadocio and self-pity, partisan bile and patently absurd lies.”

Trump’s Golden Age of Bunk

Present-day (Holocene) Ripple marks, left here as the tide went out. Similar ripple marks have been found in ancient sandstones and siltstone. They are called “trace fossils” because geologists can work out which way the current was flowing millions of years ago in #Geological Time.
