There are far too many people who are all in on Newsom because of his social media presence…which is the work of a Latina woman.
Look, I'm just gonna tell cishet white people right now--Newsom ain't the one. You got Walz and Pritzker out here. You do not need a Bill Clinton clone wearing Mitt Romney's skin.
California Governor Gavin Newsom said on Thursday that the Democratic Party needed to be “more culturally normal” and “less judgmental.”

A G3 (STRONG) geomagnetic storm watch has been issued by the NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center. This is due to a CME predicted to arrive at Earth around early-midday Dec 9 UT (Monday night).

Auroral displays may be seen across the central U.S. Follow for more updates.

This is horrific and exactly what those of us in Black studies, gender studies, women’s studies have been warning our colleagues in the sciences about. Their seeming neutrality will not save them.
Heartbreaking. The University of Nebraska will terminate its entire Earth science department.

One of the country's most successful and respected geology & climate programs: gone.

When ideologues & politicians are threatened by the very act of studying climate change, I wonder: who of us is next?
It's over.

Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut.

Check out this video I just took with my iPhone of some very intense pink/red aurora shimmering aurora! The colors were easily naked-eye visible in the moonlight (which enhances aurora colors)!

For anyone who’s unfamiliar, it’s worth noting that the next Bandcamp Friday (where Bandcamp waives its revenue share) is in two days, so now’s the perfect time to cancel your Spotify subscription and put that money toward buying actual music from actual artists!

The fascists are counting on you finding erotica and porn too distasteful to support. Because they always start here. And even if they ended here, sexuality and erotism are integral components of queer expression. You can't support queer creators without supporting 'nsfw' content.

Update on the M6.18 CME from AR 4300... the eruption looks narrow and non-Earth directed, but we'll see what coronagraphs can tell us (if anything more). It's encouraging to see this small AR be capable of this much! Let's see if it can repeat this unexpected activity when it's more Earth-facing...

I feel like people on bluesky would particularly appreciate that this is a Twitter joke 14 years in the making.

Some guy tweeted at our shitty then-mayor that we should have a Robocop statue and he was like “thanks but no” and then other people made it actually happen, over the course of 14 years
The bronze statue depicting the eponymous cybernetic star of Paul Verhoeven’s 1987 set-in-Detroit sci-fi satire was installed in Eastern Market on Wednesday, nearly 15 years after someone proposed it in a viral social media post.
