I appreciate your work and it's what inspired me to finally get out there and start doing banner drops on the bridge next to my house. Courage is contagious.

I don't think most Americans realize how hard tariffs are about to hit them. The combination of 1) escalating tariffs, 2) companies slowly passing the cost to consumers, and 3) the repeal of the de minimis exemption in the Big Beautiful Bill, a lot stuff will be more expensive in 2027.

Gassing up other people’s work is how I avoid professional jealousy. Especially when you stumble upon stuff. One time I had this huge theoretical gap in my paper so I left it alone and when I came back to the manuscript @erincassese.bsky.social had closed the gap.
We each find our way through these times
As an academic, I am doing this:
Uplift those whose research you admire. Diversify the academy.
Many ways to do this:
-Nominate for awards (did 2 yesterday)
-If you are in an academy, nominate to it (did 3 this month)
-cite them in a paper and/or talk

As a weather nerd I looked on with horror at what Trump and Musk were doing to NOAA and the NWS. It’s horrific what happened in Texas July 4. Unless changes are made fast it will get even worse though with the peak of the hurricane season about to smack our country in the face.

We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.

I wrote about how the Everglades experiment fits into the history of concentration camps in the US and abroad, and how it will connect a domestic network of camps to an international one. We’re watching the imposition of a global concentration camp network.
Opinion | Don’t call it ‘Alligator Alcatraz.’ Call it a concentration camp.
This facility’s purpose fits the classic model, and its existence points to serious dangers ahead for the country.

She’s right.
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

And with that... for another year, Airship Nebula gently deposits its riders and glides off into the nearest nebula. Tired? 😪 Maybe! Covered in space bats? Probably! But also, glowing with appreciation. Thank you for being here with us, & keep watching the scribes! #Nebulas2025

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers.
That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

1/10 On the map, clockwise from top (as we see it): Olenya, Murmansk oblast, Ivanovo-Severny, Ivanovo oblast, Ukrainka, Amur oblast, Belaya, Irkutsk oblast, Dyagilevo, Ryazan oblast. All of them except Ukrainka have reportedly been attacked today by Ukrainian small one-way attack UAS. 🧵
The attack used dozens of FPV drones armed with explosives that were smuggled into Russia. Photo: SBU Chief Vasyl Malyuk looks over a map of Russian targets in today's attack.

The lesson people infuriatingly never seem to master is that there is no creating a police state just for other people. If you create a police state with no due process for immigrants or accused criminals, then that's the system you've created for yourself.
