The main problem with Bluesky is that some of you aren't posting enough Chicago content. This is the premiere Chicago-centered social website, please act accordingly.

I got a nice Yamaha Baroque flute, aka "recorder" once I read about them. It was once a prominent shredder solo instrument. Play your "guitar"

I really love this Vincent Van Gogh quote:

"To do good work one must eat well, be well housed, have one's fling from time to time, smoke one's pipe, and drink one's coffee in peace."

No romanticizing the starving artist. Van Gogh said UBI all the way.

The current level of anomalies in the Northern Hemisphere is insane, we are past the 2023/2024 anomalies and the +1C vs 1991/2020

Note specially the anomalies from 30N to 80N: It's brutal and there is not a bit of hype here.
It is what it is: insane

October is the least warmed month and reached +1.55°C during a La Niña!

The past 29 months were +1.57°C on average, 0.32°C above the same 2015-2017 period, indicating a 0.4°C/dec warming rate.

That's more than a doubling from the 1970-2010 warming rate.
Even(?) we might have underestimated this.
