Pi day pie extravaganza. Chicken pot pie and non-dairy raspberry chocolate custard. Nice way to celebrate the end of a good week.

About fifty years ago, NASA strapped a message in a bottle to a rocket and flung it into the deep dark It wasn’t supposed to go this far, but it did. Long past its mission, it’s still out there so far away now that a simple hello takes a day to reach it, and another day to hear if it says hello back

Herman Melville's "Moby Dick" has perhaps the most memorable opening line in all of Western literature: "I hope you motherfuckers like reading about whales"

Last post for #FossilFriday this lovely #Proterozoic #Acritarch because I love it so much. This image was taken with a macro lens at 2x attached to a microscope with a 100x mag lens. It's a combination of over 100 images stacked and stitched. #Geology #Paleontology

Microscope photo of a brown microfossil that looks like a wrinkly old raisin. It is surrounded by a square pyrite crystals and fluffy organic matter on a white background.

As a former whitewater kayaker I can say that duck took an excellent line and hit his boof off that rock perfectly in what looks like solid class IV water. If I paddled that well I wouldn’t be a former kayaker.

"Butterfly Effect" is by far my favorite piece I've ever drawn. I know I keep sharing it, but I just hope it brings joy when people see it. (Plus I don't have a whole lot of new art to share.) #paleoart #sciart

Artwork of a Stegosaurus gleefully bounding after a monarch butterfly. The Stegosaurus has orange and black patterning that matches the butterfly and the plates on its back look like monarch wings.

40% of the mass of everything transported by a ship in 2023 was a fossil fuel. That stat paired with this new study shines a pretty harsh spotlight on how obscenely bad-faith the right-wing concern trolling around offshore wind + whales is www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

New research shows that the top threat to whales around the globe has changed. But it wouldn't take much to reduce the risk, researchers say.

There is something so ironic about debating with Westerners whether there is a meaningful distinction between democracy and dictatorship on the same day that Koreans demonstrate that they not only know the difference but will fight to maintain it.

"There are not many places on earth where we have detailed cause-of-death data from before the era of widespread vaccination. Massachusetts is one of those places. From 1842-1877, 70% of all deaths were from diseases which we today have vaccines to prevent." Worth sharing.....
