Here is a leaf of flowering dogwood with bright red leaf cells, nearly dead, but veins of yellow and green, still functioning to export nitrogen and magnesium products made from the breakdown of chlorophyll. Read more at Our Trees, where you can also comment or ask questions about autumn colors.

😆 honestly, it’s already happening and I have a strong love hate relationship with it 😅
Actually: the county that became the destination of the original 49ers
Thank you very much, sir! 🫡
It’s a complicated story 🤷♂️

Pig domestication in China’s Lower Yangtze River region began 8,000 years ago, about the same time as rice farming. The dates were estimated through microfossils found in the mineralized plaque of Neolithic pig teeth. In PNAS: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
BREAKING | CTP-ISW is tracking reports that Iran is conducting attacks against US bases in Qatar and Iraq. Further information and detailed analysis will be available in our forthcoming evening update. www.criticalthreats.org/analysis/ira...
Damage to Iran's Fordow fuel enrichment facility after U.S. strikes is visible in new imagery from Maxar.
🧵IR scholars, let's start a thread of what we know that's relevant for a US attack on Iran. Won't change any minds, but might help us teach this crisis and learn new angles. Please add (incl. your own work!), forgive/correct omissions. Nobody can cover everything and it's great to find new work. 1/?

I remember looking up at the Sierras this afternoon and admiring their beauty amongst dark clouds. This is tragic 😢

Exactly! I think Canada has drifted away from some conservative viewpoints in the shock of it all.
Seems like maybe Australia is experiencing the same to a lesser degree, looking at the 6 month poll data?
I don’t really have a dog in that fight, Ross. I lived in Alberta which is more conservative and was pretty anti-Trudeau, and it seems from my chats that those same people have reason to dislike Carney 🤷♂️ both Carney & Pierre are a step up from the calibre on display south of the border, in my books!
Brinkmanship negotiations seem to be going well

A cheeey blossom tree that looks great down low but in trouble otherwise
This tree symbolizes 2025. Bleak but still filled with some great beauty.

This week, as the number of confirmed measles cases rose to 483, the CDC buried a report that would’ve stressed the importance of getting vaccinated.
The move was “not normal at all,” one agency staff member said.
By @sheinvestigates.bsky.social
The poll itself seems designed to artificially cause fence-sitters to believe they’re in the minority, and question their intuitions
The quiet majority needs to start speaking up, before the only ones left with their speech rights are those who can afford them
Who would pay for an account like this, if not the Musk-Trump industrial complex themselves?
It seems blatantly obvious that this is either direct foreign interference in US politics by an enemy, or worse: the current administration is in complete cahoots with X to manipulate public sentiment
