A flotilla of mostly wooden fishing boats, some lashed together by twine, in a stand-off with Chinese coast guard vessels over a remote shoal. Something literary in these scenes from reality.

On the day of Dr. Fauci's testimony, @nytimes.com decides to run a deeply unethical OpEd with snazzy graphics and snappy headlines about the Lab Leak.
The article itself contains multiple falsehoods and deep mischaracterizations.

In this episode @ufeest.bsky.social gets to heart of what divides reform in psychology. Why do some people see a replication crisis and others a theory and/or generalisability crisis? It’s a very rich and thoughtful discussion. Highly recommend!

I finally saw GODZILLA MINUS ONE and was knocked out. I can't stand American Godzilla movies, especially the ludicrous team-ups with King Kong. GODZILLA MINUS ONE brings back the terror of the original Japanese film with real human characters. It's a must see.

“The comparison of the eruption of Mt. St. Helens to the explosion of a 10- to 20-megaton nuclear weapon is misleading. Such comparisons serve no useful purpose and should be avoided.”

For many years, climate change was treated as a problem of rising sea levels and temperatures. Only coastal cities and super hot places would suffer — others could even gain, right? Guess what: Porto Alegre is 120km from the coast, with LA-style temperatures — and it is now underwater.
