"That is, in fact, not what happened to Ophelia. Ophelia in Hamlet did not kill herself because she wasn't dating an NFL player."

A trio of cyclonic eddies in the Gulf of Mexico are creating record-high Ocean Heat Content values for the date. Absolutely something of importance during this part of hurricane season.

for context: I was explaining The String Cheese Incident but telling someone how jam bands work is actually more of a challenge

Amanda Daria Stoltz, PhD @sciencebarbie.bsky.social · 5d

Germans: 😳

Two of the most common climate misconceptions I see, even among knowledgeable folks, are that (1) most people aren't worried about climate change, and (2) if they were, they'd act.

Not true! Data show (1) most people are worried, but (2) they won’t act if they don’t know what to do-and most don’t.
