Just FYI I've forgotten everything and so removed from academia now, so please direct any questions to @volcanojenni.bsky.social @davidmpyle.bsky.social

Are you a volcanologist or working in an adjacent field? Consider signing up for Niigata University’s 1st international symposium on “Volcanology in Practice”:

which will run from 7th–10th of October 2025 in Niigata, Japan, endorsed by @iavcei.bsky.social.

An advertising flyer for a scientific symposium called "Volcanology in Practice". The flyer consists of a semi-transparent background image of Myoko volcano, Japan, overlain by text which reads: "www.thevolcano.world Volcanology in Practice international research symposium 7–10 October 2025 Niigata University, Japan" Beneath the text is a QR code which directs to the website. Logos of two Niigata University departments are included at the top of the image. On either side of the QR code is a logo for Niigata University and IAVCEI, respectively.

This Pride I want to connect with and amplify more trans people who work in nature/ecology/conservation so please say hi and do a little introduction if you're trans and work with plants, animals, fungi etc. I'll repost and create a starter pack if enough people respond 🏳️‍⚧️

I'll be on the roster as a Flood Warning Duty Officer by August and will be appreciating the close relationship we have with the Met Office in order to make the important decisions of issuing flood alerts or warnings.

True, we are experiencing understaffing etc ourselves but not to this degree.

I made these for five reasons:

• Trans Pride 🏳️‍⚧️
• Aesthetic jewellery 🌿🧝‍♀️✨️
• Science communication through #SciArt
• To afford trans-affirming costs
• A niche joke about kerning

I will not elaborate on the order of importance

Trans fem? I thought it was trans fern 🏳️‍⚧️

After 6months hard work, I'm finally launching my trans fern Pride pins and necklaces! There's even a glow-in-the-dark version and each fern comes with a queer nature fact 🌿

Please share so others can enjoy! canopyrobin.etsy.com/listing/4312...
An enamel fern in the colours of the trans pride flag, hanging from a silver chain by its curled over stem. It's on a backing card that says Trans Fern by Canopy Robin. Glow in the dark. Did you know that most ferns are homosporous? This means they produce onlye one type of spore which germinates to be both male and female during the plant's reproductive phase.

If you still vote for, or are a member of the UK Labour Party after reading this, you have no morals, empathy or awareness of the Holocaust*.

What a nasty bunch the fundamentalists of the English Labour Party are. Solidarity to UK Queer, & especially trans, people.

Labour’s health and social care minister, Karin Smyth, has called on the Conservatives to apologise for the party’s pro-trans stance.

I was considering writing some thoughts to help cis people understand what's going on and what's needed... but I see who likes my posts about trans news and I can extrapolate who doesn't, so what's the point? Other than a very few allies who already know the things, who's going to read it?

If wondering what cards, its Digimon Card Game. An obvious focus is getting all the volcano-themed Digimon.
Two cards on a white duvet. They have shiney red borders and backgrounds. The 'rock dragons' are designed to look like solidified lava that can breathe fire. One on the left callwd Lavogaritamon is a bigger version of the one on the right, called Lavorvomon. A card with a white border. In the image is a giant dragon literally made out of a volcano with several vents on its back with a head, tail and walking on 4 legs. Called Volcdramon. A white border card being held in my hand. The earth dragon is called Volcanicdramon, with massive wings and body made out of solidified lava and bones and claws like molten lava.

Yes I've been away for a while. Don't expect me to increase my presence here.

Anyway updates:
• Came 8th place in my category for a national archery competition
• Got a local recognition award at work
• Almost a Flood Warning Duty Officer
• Embraced my inner nerd and started collecting cards

More stuff from the Fab-lab-ulous! science show...

In the show I make a rainbow density column to talk about lahars and @grumpyvolcano.bsky.social's volcanology background. It takes a lot of patience...but look how pretty it is!

I am not a federal employee, but many of my colleagues are. The work they do to better understand + inform the public on volcanic hazards is deeply important. We are a team. The attacks on education and NSF harms our shared mission. There is no public sector equivalent for the operational work we do

"But what can I do, I'm just a person" I'd rather see small acts of community help rather than passive defeatism. Even if you manage to help just one person, that's better than none. Now imagine if everyone dropped the defeatist attitude and helped.

Second, resistance doesn't have to be a dramatic act. It can be a small act, like losing a sheet of paper, taking your time processing something, not serving someone in a restaurant. Small acts taken by thousands have big effects.

Got to see one of our drones in action, which is the one I requested to get aerial photos of the location of groundwater flooding. Certainly helped confirmed that the river isn't flooding at least 😅
Ground is boggy and partly mud in the foreground. In the background is a flooded disconnect river with submerged trees. In the middle of the photo is a small red and black helipad with a red "H" in the middle and in the middle, smol white drone. One orange cone is visible behind the helipad. Just off camera to the left is a man's arm wearing a high vis jacket with a controller and his leg wearing black waterproof trousers and wellies.
