@ct_bergstrom Oh, are your nose, fingers and toes intact? She be mad.
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.

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 💜
December 18, 1949, birthday of #USGS volcanologist David Alexander Johnston. He famously announced the eruption of St. Helens with his last words: "Vancouver! Vancouver! This Is It!" 🌋
