The perpetrators of workplace injustice get a slap on the wrist, but the exploited workers are arrested? This is what happens when ethics are turned upside down.

A woman hiking in Canada nearly became a grizzly’s next meal and the video circulating right now is genuinely one of the most intense wildlife encounters you will ever watch - her dog is with her, a massive grizzly is right there, and somehow she kept her head together long enough for both of them to walk away breathing.

That is not a small thing. Most people talk tough until nature is standing ten feet in front of them and every instinct in your body is screaming to run, and running is exactly the worst thing you can do.

Grizzlies are built to chase, they top out over 700 pounds and can cover ground faster than any human alive. The people who survive these moments are the ones who override pure fear with pure discipline and this woman did exactly that.

If you hike, camp, or spend any real time in the wilderness - bear spray is not optional, it is the difference between a story you tell and one somebody else tells about you.

Could you have kept your cool?

Hats off to her.

The highlight of my day was an on-the-record Zoom interview with an individual who proudly showed me a gorgeous tornado photo they took in Kansas.

The best part? The photo they showed me was... my own photo... that I took in Oklahoma in 2024.

You can't make this up. GOLD.

When I was Muslim, I never asked who built the golden calf. I just knew it was a sin in the desert.

Then I read both accounts and one detail stopped me cold.

In the Bible, the man who builds the golden calf is AARON. Moses’ own brother. The first high priest. Exodus 32:4.

He gathers the gold, melts it, shapes the idol. And when Moses confronts him, he gives the weakest excuse in scripture: “I threw the gold in the fire and out came this calf.” As if it made itself.

Bro. The Bible just put the worst sin in the camp in the hands of the holiest man in the camp.

You would NEVER write that if you were protecting your prophets.

Now read the Quran. Surah 20. Aaron is cleared. Innocent. He tried to stop it. The blame goes to a mystery man called “al-Samiri.” The Samaritan. Surah 20:85.

You know what shook me? The Bible incriminates its own high priest.

The Quran writes him an alibi and invents a villain.

One reads like an honest record. The other like damage control.

And there’s a second problem with that villain. “The Samaritan.” But Samaritans didn’t exist in Moses’ time.

The city of Samaria wasn’t founded until about 500 years later, under King Omri. 1 Kings 16:24.

It’s like putting a Texan at the Last Supper.

Now, some Muslim scholars push back — they say “Samiri” means something else. I’ll be fair, that argument exists. But their own classical commentators read it as “the Samaritan” for centuries.

The defense only works by re-translating away from how the tradition always understood it.

I used to say the Bible was corrupted. But the Bible is honest enough to say the high priest built the idol.

Only a book honest about how bad we are could point me to a Savior real enough to fix it.

The Bible never flattered Aaron. It didn’t flatter me either. It just told me the truth, and handed me Jesus.

1 year ago today, the world’s first EF5 tornado in 12 years touched down near the town of Enderlin, North Dakota.

Pretty intuitive animation explaining seasons, equinox, solstice, length of day and night.

Today marks the summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere.

At the start of a chess game, you have 20 possible moves. After just one full move, there are over 400 positions. By move 3, it’s about 8,900, and by move 4, nearly 200,000.

By move 40, the number of possible games grows to around 10⁴⁰ — similar to the number of atoms in the observable universe.

Unreal. Tornado ate the drone yesterday. He returned to the area this morning and found it crashed in a field and was able to offload the video!

Loggerhead sea turtles 🐢 don’t just migrate willy-nilly. As it turns out, they follow a narrow band of ideal chlorophyll and heat levels—which stretches across the Pacific and moves north and south with the seasons!

In honor of #WorldSeaTurtleDay, see how data collected from tagged turtles and @NOAA’s #satellites reveals this migration pattern!

Rainbow and a TORNADO!

Riki caught sight of this small twister near the airport in Greencastle a little while ago.

Video of the UNREAL tornado near Mount Meridian, IN. Ridiculous suction vortices. I cannot believe my eyes

[The Weather Channel @weatherchannel]

Meteorologist @StephanieAbrams is tracking a dangerous severe weather threat across parts of the Midwest on Tuesday. Storms could bring damaging winds, large hail, and tornadoes from Iowa and Missouri to Illinois and Indiana.

[Ryan Hall, Y’all @ryanhallyall]

Two days out, eyes on Wednesday. SPC just hung a Level 3 risk over Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana.

This one looks like an all-hazards day. Storms should fire in the afternoon, first as a few strong supercells across Missouri and Illinois, then clumping into one big line as the evening goes on.

That means strong tornadoes early, then a long swath of damaging wind, gusts of 70 mph or more, as the line plows east. Plenty can still shift around, but the setup has their attention this far out.

🇸🇻 Check this out. It was raining balls deep in El Salvador over the weekend.

A giant inflatable World Cup soccer ball was found terrorizing the streets of San Salvador during heavy wind and rain.

Where's Indiana Jones when you need him?

POETRY IN MOTION: Just captured this stunning timelapse on Lake Ontario from Webster before the wind knocked my camera over. This is a remarkable visual of a chaotic and sheared atmosphere at work. Toward the end, sky sky behaved almost like a bubbling cauldron. It’s so cool!

4 years ago today, a monstrous supercell exploded like a nuke over Chicagoland. This storm exceeded 65K feet in height and caused damage to much of the CHI metro, dropping a few weak tornadoes. If shear was better, a tornado disaster may have transpired #ilwx

[NEXTA @nexta_tv]

🌩 An incredible sunset over Nebraska is going viral online

The footage was captured today in Sidney, Nebraska, during a powerful storm.

The photographer managed to capture a massive supercell — one of the rarest and most spectacular types of storm clouds. These systems are often responsible for the strongest tornadoes, giant hail, and extreme rainfall.

Looks more like a scene from a disaster movie than real life.

-Squatters took over his mom's house
-Didn't know how to get them out and discovered how difficult the legal process can be for homeowners
-Found a legal workaround where he could move into the house himself and essentially become the squatter's new roommate
-Realized this was a much bigger problem than most people knew
-Started making videos helping homeowners get their properties back
-Went viral
-Now has a reality TV show where he travels the country out-squatting squatters

[Ryan Hall, Y’all @ryanhallyall]

I have never seen a tornado do this before.

Watch this incredibly rare, looping rope tornado stretch out over Illinois live on stream.

Holy cow! This may be the weather photo of the year.

Double rainbow, orange sky over Nationals Park Friday evening.

Absolutely amazing capture by Alex Warofka
