The US will soon learn how bad its PFAS crisis is. But Maine has already begun to look—and is waking up to a nightmare. For The Atlantic I spoke to a family realizing they drank toxic water for 30 years, and what it may have cost them. Maine is a warning: theatlantic.com/science/archiv…

Left Civil War tonight feeling like I'd run a marathon. Realized it was because I'd been holding my breath for two hours. Kirsten Dunst's performance is unflinchingly brutal.

If we could not use badly trained and inaccurate AI images to depict disaster impacts in media, I would be so happy.

There's plenty of footage and stills out there of real earthquakes impacting areas. No need to fake it with AI and give people wildly inaccurate info.

On Tuesday night, the damage at the Panguitch Lake Dam was declared to be a 'Level 2 Emergency Situation.' Here's what you should know about Utah's dams, including how to prepare for dam failure and why we have dams in the first place.

Listen, if we’re going to keep doing extremely problematic teaching evaluations then we at least have to do them online because my students keep ABSCONDING with all my pencils! 😭😅

Sry but it’s wild to not let your students out of class to go watch an eclipse??? This is like making students do remote class instead of giving them a snow day.

It’s honestly so cute that we all went and got special glasses to go stand outside together to watch the sun and the moon kiss 🥹🥹

Out of catastrophe, beauty arises. Our Hurricane Katrina rose (aka Peggy Martin), which we planted from cuttings of a rose that survived being submerged in salt water for two weeks in aftermath of Katrina.

I wish was spending more time figuring out how to handle all the massive problems AI is going to cause us,

“Adams vs. Earthquake: 50,000 Cops in Subway Showdown' is an actual headline the AI generated based on (obviously joke) posts on X.”

It is actually very funny to watch the same sub-set of meteorologists who “get off my lawn” weather 365 days a year transform into geologists the second there is an earthquake.

Check out the shoreline change along the southeast coast of Nantucket.

-Sheep Pond Rd is no longer a through road.

- Several houses were demolished or moved landward.

With the stronger storms and rising sea level increase the threat of erosion.

A study on what many of us already know: over 75% of internal service work in academia is done by women. “We were surprised by how brazenly the male researchers described their priorities, for example that they actively didn’t respond to emails”
