“Tides are already running a foot or more above average thanks to the extreme marine heatwave, and additional sea level elevation may begin soon as the largest coastally trapped Kelvin wave of the El Niño-generated sequence thus far arrives in October,” said @weatherwest.bsky.social @ucanr.edu

the cornell case has me thinking about how existing as a woman means knowing you could be the victim of sexual violence at any moment, all while knowing there's a high likelihood no one will believe it even happened if you come forward.

Climate change is making extreme weather events more intense, frequent and long-lasting. "Extreme weather event attribution" studies identify the "fingerprint" of climate change on weather extremes Check out my latest video for the breakdown of this rapidly-evolving field: youtu.be/M1Lc5Ia7Pdo

Women are far more likely to be raped, attacked, or even murdered by men they know, even those they trust, than by strangers. When you say "not all men," you're showing your ignorance of the facts.

So much of schools "responding to rape" is preventing the legal system from doing so. This is a report on seven adults who committed serious felonies for which there is a legal system to remind them and their pals that they are felonies.

"[The rapists] were offered the opportunity to “mitigate their conduct by submitting an essay to Cornell.” An essay. They asked them to write an essay... They did not involve the real police, and all but two of them were back on campus after the university concluded it’s “investigation.”"

A picture taken through the rounded windows of what may be the Flying Bribery Palace. Trump is visible, wearing a red cap with a flag on it (probably made in China). Someone who could be Bill Pulte is standing next to him.

All of them feature psychoanalyses of the de facto technocrats shaping our world—and it’s easy to revel in the unflattering portraits. As billionaires, they seem untouchable.

Gutted at the news of Gloria Steinem’s death. Do yourself a favor and listen to Julia Louis-Dreyfus’ interview with her 2 years ago on her Wiser Than Me podcast. Here’s an excerpt on laughter…

Podcast excerpt that says. “But laughter is free. You can't force somebody to laugh who doesn't want to, right?
That's right. It's sacred in that sense.
Yes. Absolutely.
Yeah. And it's also interesting to me that I think men particularly are often threatened by funny women.
Do you agree with that?
Well, I think authority doesn't want to be laughed at. So maybe men who cling to masculine authority don't want to be laughed at, especially by women. That robs them of their power and their view.”
