I've been largely offline this summer, doing fieldwork with little signal. But, would you like to hear about it? Of course you would. Incoming: lizards, science, beautiful Alpine vistas 🧵
@BrusselsAirport@FlyingBrussels I don't have a flight because I haven't bought it. It just seems weird that Brussels Airlines should sell one with a connection that's allegedly impossible in its own home port. SN 2064 connecting to SN 3343.
Trying to find out if 45 minutes is enough connection time in @BrusselsAirport
Their website says no -- 50 minutes minimum. But the flights I'm looking at with the 45-minute connection are on Brussels Airlines @FlyingBrussels
@Xalinai2 @janrosenow Which suggests that 'solar' is basically non-existent, which is pretty surprising. Unless this is just tracking centrally produced power, which would make more sense -- solar seems to be sourced at point of use in most places, rather than feeding into the grid.
@ValforNevada My girlfriend works in a pharmacy. They are seeing zero denied claims this morning, when usually close to half are denied/requiring prior authorization. Everything is going through today.
Hello @NetworkRailGLC a fixed-attachment pannier bag was stolen off of my bicycle while it was parked on a top-level rack inside the station. Is there any way for me to recover it?
There are around 200,000 Muslim voters in Michigan. Trump is currently leading in that state by around 120,000 votes. Was it worth it? Was it worth it to send Ritchie Torres to Michigan to antagonize Muslim and Arab voters? Was it worth it asking Clinton to insult their faith?
Holy shit they’re already blaming the left and, get this, PUSHING ABORTION RIGHTS TOO HARD. This is what happens every time. The democrats lurch to the right, voters abandon them, and the dems go “the problem is we didn’t go far enough right.” Despicable morons.
Looked at the news, against my better judgement. @BBCWorld settling into nail-biting US election coverage by posting that famous "Dewey defeats Truman" picture -- erroneously describing the person holding up the newspaper as Dewey. I'm going to bed.
@quendergeer It is so good, though. I used to live in a flat with a bunch of le creuset that one of the flatmates had fished out of a bin. Lived like punks; cooked like kings.
hot take….the popularity of the idiom “internalized misogyny” when what is meant would be more accurately called “lateral misogyny” is due to the former obscuring the woman’s role as an enforcer of misogyny by it making that effect secondary to her own bad conscience.
Israeli arrested Dr Mohammad Obaid, Al-Awda Hospital, Jabalya Camp. He exemplifies all that is noble, heroic and dignified in medicine as a tool for resisting the genocide. Staying in northern Gaza for over a year, his return to work after he was shot by a sniper inside the hospital at end of 2023. He embodies all that is great in our people.
