- Ok, so more on this. Crazy cool. Human ancestors with flint tools and a hearth making fire and cooking 400,000 years ago in modern day England. Come on. I did not have that on today’s bingo card. #humangeography #geography #history #fire @anericangeo.bsky.social www.aol.com/400-000-old-...?
- As a reminder, #history will continue to find deeper and deeper roots. Not more recent than previously thought. We are going to find more and more fascinating human history from way before we ever thought we would. www.washingtonpost.com/science/2025...?

- If you live in #DC #WashingtonDC and have strong opinions about the boundaries of DC neighborhoods, there is no such authoritative map and these folks are crowdsourcing a map. Take a look at this flyer and give it a go! #geography #geospatial @openstreetmap.bsky.social @americangeo.bsky.social
- More baby bust alarmism by @joshuaqyang.bsky.social at @washingtonpost.com. This stuff just gets so old. Time to reimagine economics for an era of degrowth. Prosperity and wellbeing do not demand growth. Please read some @vegardskirbekk.bsky.social. www.washingtonpost.com/world/intera...?
- Hoping #JeromePowell gives this article by Timothy W Ryback a read and holds out longer than Hans Luther did. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
- Well, I guess we could just import #MexicanCocaCola, right? Are the President and #RFKJr saying that Mexico has always been right and America has been wrong re: Coke? Make American Great Again By Being More Like Mexico? Fraught. www.axios.com/2025/07/22/c...?
- So, I thought I had heard that #AlanDershowitz had frequented #JeffreyEpstein’s #LolitaEpxress. Am I incorrect? If I am not, why does he have an ounce of credibility in anything related to this topic? Does that make molestation attorney client privilege? www.thedailybeast.com/jeffrey-epst...?
- If you have been following the #EpsteinFiles, I would love your thoughts on this article by @shaunkingofficial.bsky.social www.thenorthstar.com/p/he-belonge...?
- Another great article by Joseph Chamie, former director of the UN Population Division. The facts are messy. They don’t get better adding 80m+ people to the planet each year…Give it a read. www.ipsnews.net/2025/06/the-...
- Jyrki, it’s fun to remember how connections get made! I hope you and yours are safe and well. I need some Sardinian food and beverage!!

- For those of you interested in a who’s who of #geospatial thought leaders, this LinkedIn post from the great Brian Monheiser has led to some great posts. Give it a read. I learned a lot about awesome geo folks that I was unfamiliar with. You might too. www.linkedin.com/posts/activi...
- Come on @apnews.com, this is the best you can do? You can’t even point out ehy conservative catholic theologians who disagree with #VPVance? This reads like an endorsement, not even explanatory journalism. Shame on you. apnews.com/article/jd-v...
- Interesting. www.thedailybeast.com/musks-doge-m...
- Yep. @parkermolloy.com is right. His ‘awkward’ salute was not to Trump. It was to himself. #elonmusk #coup www.readtpa.com/p/the-media-...
- I’m with you 100%. And, even if they did investigate and prosecute any transgressions, POTUS would simply pardon him. But, it is an interesting case where there would be a clearly recorded individual failure to abide by the law of a document he personally signed.
- Having been a #SpecialGovernmentEmployee in support of various DoD & IC elements, this caught my attention. As it turns out, there are legally binding rules to being an SGE. I would love to see the signed paperwork. Now things get interesting. #elonmusk www.cnn.com/2025/02/03/p...
- This is an interesting map from Visual Capitalist (which is not yet on BlueSky) to think about when pondering which Americans will be most effected by #tariffs. #geography @americangeo.bsky.social www.visualcapitalist.com/mapped-top-i...
- Awesome exchange on #Christianity between #VPJDVance and #RoryStewart (neither of whom appear to be on BlueSky) www.thepoke.com/2025/01/31/j...
- Another awesome response, this time from a conservative American theologian. www.alternet.org/vance-hannit...

- “The difference between being a schizophrenic and an innovator is ‘this big’ (forefinger and thumb one inch apart). They both see futures that don’t exist.”
- “But distances have a way of vanishing when measured in values, rather than miles, and it was because of our shared values that Jimmy and I respected each other as adversaries, even before we cherished one another as dear friends.”
- Well, it’s @snopes.com for the win! Great piece on changes in how #autism #ASD has been diagnosed over the years, and the clueless (or purposeful) rabble rousing that has been going on lately in the American political scene. www.snopes.com/news/2025/01...

- Great work by the Graphika and @bellingcat.com teams.
- On last night's @60minutes.bsky.social, insights from #Graphika were cited in a story about websites and apps that can turn real photos of someone into realistic nude images - a growing problem for students in schools nationwide. Watch the full story below!
- Another awesome @CesiumJS #Christmas party, this time at the #PhiladelphiaMasonicTemple, hanging with Patrick Cozzi, my beautiful ladies, and the gang. If you ever get a chance to party there, do it!
- I have not been a big fan of @usatoday.com in recent years given their penchant for publishing unhinged RightWing drivel from @hillsdalecollege.bsky.social grads, but this one is quality. A letter from polio in support of RFK Jr., co-signed by natural selection www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...
- Indeed, it’s never the climate change.
- Reposted by Christopher TuckerFor most people, it is obvious that #populationgrowth is driving #ecologicaldamage, poverty and other harms. And yet Western academia, media, and even most NGOs refuse to talk about it. Let's discuss the population taboo 👉 www.populationbalance.org/podcast/hann...
- Care about the #climate, #climatechange, or the #climateemergency? Share this video from @americangeo.bsky.social #Geography2050 symposium from a few weeks ago in #NYC w/ @kenbuesseler from @whoi.bsky.social & @romanywebb from @columbiaclimate.bsky.social www.geography2050.org/video-lib-20...
- Super excited by the great work the @graphika.com team is doing to combat hoaxes and fraud for regular people. And proud to be on their board. More good stuff on this topic coming soon.
- #Graphika's new report "Holiday Hoaxes Unwrapped: Fake Trees, Freebies, and Shopping Sprees" was featured by @axios.com in an article examining how numerous scams target shoppers and social media users during the holiday season. To learn more and read the full article, see below!
- Reposted by Christopher TuckerA core belief of mine is that there aren’t “other people’s kids.” Children are a societal responsibility. I’m not saying that if you chose to be child free you chose wrong, they aren’t for everyone, but as a society they should be our priority to protect and insure they grow to be happy adults
- Reposted by Christopher TuckerWorking with industry partners at Meta, Graphika is joining a campaign to raise public awareness about online scams during the holidays. Our new report “Holiday Hoaxes Unwrapped” details scams targeting shoppers and internet users during the holiday season.
- Thanks for the great recommendation, Josh. Well worth it. I forgot how many fond childhood memories I have of that man.
- This is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a while. Do yourself a favor and watch 8 minutes of Coldplay and Dick Van Dyke. You won’t regret it. youtu.be/o4OlL0OpbW8?...
- Nice article by @JustinJouvenal @jonswaine.bsky.social @amarimow of @washingtonpost.com. But the Koch quest began with the Lewis Powell Memo in 1971. Not the Chevron case in 1984. Almost 55yrs. Not mentioning Powell is a huge omission. Come on guys! #blindspot www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
- It was awesome to see my old friends Gilman Louie and Jeff Jonas (who apparently are not on BlueSky yet?) sowing awesome at the US Geospatial Intelligence Foundations’s GeoGala this week. Congrats to Kevin O’Connell for winning the Lundahl-Finnie Lifetime Achievement Award! #GEOINT #geospatial
