Puppies are snuggled in. Movie time! #dogs #DogsOfMastodon

Forget the cryptic crossword, here’s a trio of ‘Spot the Dog’ options to help occupy a Sunday morning….

This may be my favorite miniature kit I've done.

It's a library! I made 93 tiny books during the whole process 😮‍💨

Have you noticed the “ #liberal #media “ has moved to a mostly paywalled model & the #rightwing #conservative media is free?
I have.
Also many liberal #journalists writing articles behind paywalls talk about the uninformed right wing #gop voters 🤷‍♂️

An older lady stopped me with my car today and asked me “do you have a good pair of eyes?” “I think so” I told her and she showed me far away. Mt Rainier appeared on the horizon in between buildings on a sunny Seattle day. She wanted to share this rare moment with someone 🥹💙

the most important part of #Unicode history is when a mouse fell out of a light fixture and got added to the count of members present at a Technical Committee meeting (9 Nov 2016)

Jako Slazaka jasny chuj mnie strzela, kiedy widze wpisy takie jak ten, ktory zamieszcze na screenie pod wpisem. Gorny Slask to region unikatowy pod wzgledem industrialnej architektury, ktorej jeszcze nie wyburzono albo nie zamieniono na cos innego, ale i to powoli nieodwracalnie sie zmienia. Mamy (jeszcze) budynki Elektrocieplowni Szombierki w Bytomiu - zabytek, ktory po prostu powala swoim ogromem, moglby byc polskim Battersea, ale przez dobre kilkanascie lat trwala walka o to, zeby w ogole ktos chcial sie zainteresowac tym zabytkiem. W koncu kupila go firma #ARCHE, ale z przeznaczeniem pod hotel - i trudno sie dziwic, bo miejsce jest tak wypatroszone z czegokolwiek, ze to jedno z niewielu sensownych zastosowan... a teraz sie okazuje, ze poprzedni wlasciciel nie dosc, ze zaniedbal zabytek, to jeszcze po prostu wywiozl cale wyposazenie NA ZLOM.. 🤦‍♂️
Rozumiecie? Unikalne na skale swiatowa maszyny, generatory, piece, itp. - po prostu sprzedane przez wlasciciela NA CHOLERNY ZLOM...

Rozumiecie? Bo ja nie rozumiem 🤷‍♂️

What if there’s somebody who has spent the last decade saying “man I love this band U2!” but they only know the album they got for free on their iPod.

David Graeber got an economist to admit that he was not aware of single case where a company was fined more than the profit it turned breaking the law. He summarized this as the government saying: "Do all the crime you want, but if we catch you, you have to give us a cut."

The Mormon Church is being fined 5 million because it hid a 32 billion dollar investment fund. This was not accidental. The SEC proved that both the investment firm and church went to great lengths to knowingly hide these assets. For the folks playing along at home, that’s a fine of 0.016% on the investment. Imagine lying on your taxes and you hid an extra $100K offshore and the IRS said “No sweat, pay us $15.63.” If there are no other repercussions, that’s not a fine, that’s encouragement.

Jessica McCarty @mccarty_geo:
At a NASA Earth meeting 10 years ago, a white male post doc interrupted me to tell me that I didn't understand human drivers of fire, that I def needed to read McCarty et al.
Looked him in the eye, pulled my long hair back so he could read my name tag.
'I'm McCarty et al.

Back from the binational beaver survey. No #beavers, but saw active dams and lodges. They are crepuscular creatures here, and we were mostly out during the mid-day. If you set up a blind before dawn or early evening, you might see them.

I learned a ton of really cool stuff about beavers! I was fairly familiar with their ecological niche before, but seeing the difference in watersheds with and without beavers... it's massive.

Will post some photos and more info tomorrow.

I'm going out with some people to count #beavers in the Mexican section of the San Pedro River for the next three days.

It's going to be cold. There will be photos.

Probably not photos of beavers, tho. They're elusive unless you have time to hang out and wait, which we won't. Seeing sign like burrows, cut stumps and dams is a perfectly good way to get a count.

It’s very disturbing to see reputed leftists repeating the right wing attack line about Biden not going to East Palestine. The mayor of East Palestine told him not to come, told Katy Tur on MSNBC that the logistics and police involvement were more trouble than the town could manage. He’s doing what was asked.

It’s #Caturday!

Todays cat + funeral mashup is this adorable set of figures representing the real-life Dancing Pallbearers. They’re a group of professional pallbearers in Ghana who rose to viral Tiktok fame for their choreographed dancing while carrying caskets on their shoulders yes, they dropped one once).

Their leader, Benjamin Aidoo, has transformed the original group into a business that supports one hundred employees in an area beset by high unemployment rates.

Also know as the Coffin Dancers ⚰️
