“What we must realise is that the Santorini volcano produces very large explosions every 20,000 years,” Efthymios Lekkas, seismologist & head of the scientific monitoring committee for the Hellenic Volcanic Arc, said last week.

“It’s been 3,000 years since the last explosion, so we have a very long time ahead of us before we face a big explosion.”

LMAO.. apparently, volcanoes are big sticklers about staying on the right schedule

@WarnerCrocker not sure what 'would be failure' youre referring to, but there is plenty of evidence that reducing speed limits saves lives.

from a literature review:

" 40% lives saved with the introduction of 30 km/h speed limits in cities."

@ai6yr

i used to have a short talk with any new-to-town coworkers or students at my unis -- there were many of them

i'd stress that if they were ever anywhere in the city & had the sense that something was wrong, or someone was suspicious, they should GTFO immediately. even if that meant breaking into a run or looking foolish or possibly racist. to just get out of a situation if you had any inclination of danger.

Baltimore has problems. but it prepared me so well to deal w the unexpected

there is absolutely no rest for the genocidal, murderous Israeli regime. no objective but slaughter.

ok so ... kudos to 'Nick'

this is the first time my ex has sent me a meme or post s(something he does all the time) that was from MASTODON! (which he does not use, so this made its way onto insta or reddit)

and also, ofc the post is just hilarious

how are temps looking in Antarctica this month?
YIKES is how.

oh, Mayotte.
this is really horrific destruction.

"Cyclone Chido, the worst storm to hit the French archipelago Mayotte in 90 years, may have killed “several hundred” people according to authorities. (or more)

The cyclone had put the region on high alert as it closed in on the African mainland, packing gusts of at least 226km/h (140mph).

The storm also hit the nearby Comoro Islands, causing flooding and damaging homes"

i understand, there are lots of folks still vulnerable to COVID and long COVID.

but OMFG, we are an exposed nation!!

and it looks like a lot of people have some level of protection due to exposure to either illness or vaccination.

AND, COVID activity in wastewater is low right now.

@ai6yr i think about this graphic a lot, too

@ZekuZelalem

i dont know what to say. what a horrible tragedy. this entire situation.. just awful. (and i see your subsequent post -- it is compounded by the world's decision to turn away)

i appreciate you keeping us informed of what is happening ...and also thank you for not showing the video.

take care of yourself.

@feld that old growth wood is insane too.

my home in Baltimore was built in 1896, and if you had to nail something into the beams in the basement, they were so hard that the noise coming out of them while driving the nail was like a banshee screaming.

tho i rarely post there, i kept my twitter account active bc so many govts & official orgs use the place, stupidly, to make announcements.

but now they'll be training AI w the tweets, & i wanted to remove mine. not easy to do manually.

some nice coder guy wrote a free script to delete all of your tweets, once you get an archive of your data.
i'm not super tech savvy but i was able to do it following his instructions in this vid.

just FYI

@WarnerCrocker considering that most big media is owned by rich right wingers, i dont think you're going to stop seeing them work for the GOP anytime soon.

in today's edition of No One Can Make This Shit Up:

RFK Jr, is trying to get ahead of a New Yorker story by releasing a new video in which he says he dumped a dead bear cub in Central Park and made a bicyclist look like the guilty party.

Asked by Harris Faulkner if JD Vance is ready on day one, Trump answers: “Historically, the vice president, in terms of the election, does not have any impact. I mean, virtually no impact...Virtually never has it mattered.”

LMFAO

that's as softball as they come and he couldn't even answer normally. Vance is two weeks from being just a coffee boy
