I’ve locked down my account again. Those who want to intimidate and insult endlessly can find someone else to troll. No, you didn’t “win” anything, you just harassed people who are working hard to keep your children out of hospital.

Take care, friends, colleagues. #ShabbatShalom

Macrostrat will tell you what's under your feet where you are. In great detail. I learned that an earthquake fault that I didn't know existed sits a couple of miles east of my house.

If you can use a map application to locate a destination, you won't have any trouble using Macrostrat.

There is a large evil machine eating all the neighbors trash and only my dog’s diligent and vocal protection can save us now.

I’ve had a lot of people ask me recently why not stay on Twitter and fight.

The reason is because Musk controls the algorithm. He could ban you tomorrow, and he could also just deprioritize every one of your tweets so no one sees them.

You can’t fight and win when the opponent has complete control over the field of conflict.

Great to hear @garthmullins on #CanadaLand earlier today. Really great that he and Jesse were able to shine some light on the nonsense put forward by Pierre Poilivre.

The best photo of Mars I've taken to date! This was just me practicing before opposition so that I can be ready and I think I am!

I have a quick video of the equipment used & acquisition process here: https://youtu.be/nKOeYdYOTSg

Scam Alert!

If you receive an email or response on Mastodon like the following, DO NOT click the link. It is a scam fishing for login details at the very least.

"Mastodon has detected botting malware on your PC that is congesting the Mastodon network. All affected accounts will be suspended within 24 hours unless removed. _https://REDACTEDLINK"

I can’t resist a #FungiFriday #mushroom post - these are from #Holkham #dunes and #woodland on the #Norfolk #coast

It's time for the frosted mini-wheat harvest!

For any trans people who need to hear this:

Your body is beautiful. You're worthy of being desired, if that's something you want.

Whether you choose to transition (and in whatever direction you want), and wherever you are in that process -- you're seen, you are believed, and I'm proud to be your sibling.

When you look in the mirror, you deserve to hear, "Hey, Beautiful." If you don't hear it in your voice, hear it in mine.

Your strength is incredible. You come from a long tradition of transgender people, stretching back to the earliest days of humanity.

Let the haters shout into the void. You don't need to. The Void already loves you. ✨​

(cis people please boost)

I very much lichen this 💚 Gorgeous metallophyte lichens growing on iron sulphide rich sediments.

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Don't cross a picket line, just fucking don't
