Where all the movers and shakers meet up: Cascadia, San Andreas, and Gorda. Juan de Fuca? I barely knew her. SoliDEIrity. Diversity is our strength. Love and science are for everyone. (Header: diagram of the the 3 plates that make me! From U. of AZ)

My bio. Needs an itty-bitty update, though.

What about under the same roof? His wife is Indian-American, after all…

Diversity is a very good thing. Don’t ever let anyone tell you otherwise.

Vance says it is "totally reasonable and acceptable" for people to not want to live next door to people who speak a different language than they do

Undocumented immigrants paid $100 billion in taxes in 2022. It would cost $300 billion to deport them all. They're here, they're working, they're contributing. Give them a pathway to citizenship.

Poor Jamaica. At least Haiti didn’t get the worst of it for the 100th time. Too bad Melissa didn’t have her sights set on the Golden Toilet Palace a little further north…

Oops! My bad.

Buuuutttt…you have to admit, y’all are quiet for so long between eruptions that it’s kind of easy to forget…have you thought about speeding things up? I for one would love watching the show. :D

I need to get my scribe to pull this up and then go for a deep dive to play it for me.

I was taking a nap and missed that there were actual tornado warnings south of here? Really? In this economy?

I learned this weekend the value of de-escalation when our weekly protest was involved in an incident. This is valuable info that could literally save your life. And everyone can use a brush-up on what their rights are, especially since no one else will protect you except YOU.

Seriously, boo to fracking. Renewable energy all the way. (I had to throw in a BSG reference, but the sentiment is genuine!)

My scribe and I are vehemently anti fracking. My sympathies to those feeling the quakes. My scribe grew up near @sanandreasfault.bsky.social and explains that being jiggled with no warning absolutely sucks. San Andreas is not solely to blame though, its children are a bit feisty sometimes. ✨.

And the localized earthquakes being experienced in Texas and Oklahoma are basically free carnival rides!

Water pollution, air pollution, soil pollution, livestock deaths. But other than that, what's not to love about fracking?
