American persimmons (Diospyros virginiana) are *gorgeous* trees, especially when they’re loaded with fruit, and they’re host plants to 55 different species of caterpillars. If you live in the green area, plant a few

this is exactly right. men who say ties are uncomfortable often don't know their collar size. many are also buying alpha sized shirts, instead of shirts sized by collar and sleeve. many end up doing this below.

56 million years ago, Earth had a carbon surge called the PETM. It drove 5–8 °C of warming, acidified oceans, wiped out marine life, and took 200,000 years to recover. Today we’re dumping CO₂ 10× faster. The planet will recover again—but humanity won’t.

Americans used to know birds by thousands of unique local folk names. Ruddy Ducks alone were called dummy duck, dinky, dipper, dopper, dumb-bird, and god-damn. My latest piece is on the joy of folk names and losing them to the bureaucratic formalization of knowledge about birds.
Friends! It's the feast day of St. Hildegard of Bingen, an abbess, polymath, mystic, & eel truth-teller.
Medieval thinkers agreed that eels reproduce asexually. But Hildegard suggested that eels mate at sea, where we can't watch.
No one listened to her. But she was right! 1/2
This is not just “an American soybean farmer.”
This is Caleb Ragland, President of the American Soybean Association and proud three-time Trump voter.

It's hard to overstate just how off the charts warm the Pacific is right now. The swath of the basin from California to Japan (a HUGE area) from 25N to 60N is ~3F (1.6C) above normal. To put it into math terms that is 6 Sigma/ standard deviations above the mean. I won't bother…
It is impressive how the forecasts of James Hansen's group (on the right at an arrest in front of the White House in 2011) are being confirmed. The bottom figure is from December 2022, when there was not much evidence that global mean temperature would follow Hansen's forecast…
A severe marine heatwave has arrived along the entire West Coast, including California, with water temperatures up to 9°F above normal.
If these warm waters persist, they could cause significant disruptions to marine life and coastal ecosystems, while also leading to muggier and…
