Welcome back to #FossilFriday!

Here is a Petoskey Stone which is Michigan's state stone. It is a colonial rugose coral known as Hexagonaria percarinata. This comes from the Middle Devonian (Givitian) Gravel Point Formation (Traverse Group). Each corallite that you see would have housed a polyp.

Since we're talking about special editions and retroactive filmmaker tinkering...

I covered both versions of Chaplin's THE GOLD RUSH, both the 1925 original and the 1942 re-release that turned it into a talkie... kinda.

Koh: This is not about justice. This is about power. This is about a Secretary of Defense so drunk off alpha male bullshit that he's willing to take lives to get off on that power.

This is Coe Fen in Cambridge, a watercolour drawing from 1998. The tower in the middle distance is the Pitt Building and the other tower is the United Reform Church. This was done on the spot with watercolour and Indian ink.

The roughly 15,000 satellites in space are already a nuisance to astronomy research. It could get a LOT worse.

🚨 CNBC on latest jobs numbers: "A big miss on ADP payrolls. The private payroll company saying private payrolls shed 32,000 workers in Nov. That's the 4th negative number in past 6 months. The estimate was for +40,000, so the street was off ... this may be coming from being hammered by the tariffs"

Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

Grace McDonnell was 7 years old when she was killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.

As of today, December 3, 2025, she would have been 20 years old. This kind of thing is absolutely unacceptable.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.
