Time for an #introduction!

I’m Chris Vagasky, a meteorologist and expert in applications of #lightning data and #LightningSafety. I work for Vaisala, the company that owns and operates the National Lightning Detection Network in the United States and the Global Lightning Dataset GLD360.

I like working across sectors and across sciences. One of my favorite sciences to work with is #volcanology.

Looking forward to getting to know you all and taper off of the bird site.

Here are my pets.

Happy Hanukkah to those who celebrate! 🕎

These depictions of menorahs are from Chersonesos in the Crimean peninsula. They date back nearly 2000 years

@seismogenic Ah yes. I remember dreams like that when I was writing proposals. A really good argument *phttt evaporates* on awakening.

A long-form discussion of why I think it’s important to be specific when we’re debating free speech. Are we talking law, culture, or decency?

Who is Taylor Lorenz and why should we care?

She's a technology columnist for the Washington Post, suspended this evening from Twitter apparently for asking Musk to comment on a story involving Musk. Musk is demonstrating that he can extort censorship from the media with the ban hammer. Taylor was targeted to be an example. Other journalists are put on notice it's not them...this time, and reminded to toe the line. This is about press freedom. That's why we all should care.

Mastodon please help me with something. I'm a #trans guy with practically no trans guy friends. I know nothing about trans guys. I only know about James.

I could really do with some transmasc and trans men friends so.... hi?

Boosts encouraged 💜

What is it with modern singers and singing Christmas carols in a mournful way. Really, carols are meant to be happy and joyful. (aren't they?)🤔
