Visually spectacular "sculpted" supercell thunderstorm near Woodrow on high plains of eastern Colorado earlier today (6/8/24). This storm featured a blue-green & ground-scraping shelf cloud (& dust storm beneath) so wide I could not fully capture even with wide angle lens! #COwx
Facebook bots invading forums where people are trying to have conversations with other people is a genuinely evil development.
Our blurry boys the other day. They'd been to the vet and had their worming treatment a few hours earlier so were feeling a little out of sorts. They were back to their usual hilarious selves by morning though.

The only feeling I have about starship is dread.
They want to use that to launch batches of HUNDREDS of Starlinks at once. And guess where all those Starlinks will end up?
