It’s time for my first X: I am amused by the notion you see on social media that scientists don’t know how to measure stuff accurately. It’s clear that they don’t know any actual scientist🙄Cuz we measure everything in triplicate and run the statistics before we head home 👀

So some of the balloons might just be people who do it for a hobby? Here’s an image from today of some guys in Illinois who have 4 balloons across the globe right now that they’re tracking. It’s called a pico balloon. youtu.be/OUtf40HxRAE. #Ballon

How many of the Republican members of the #HouseofRepresentatives said they’d “start working for America on Day One”? Pretty much all of them 👀🤷🏻‍♂️

When you visit Hawaii please don’t buy bottled water. All our water comes from springs. What comes out of the faucet is 100% pure Hawaiian spring water. It’s definitely better than any bottled water you’ll get.

If you think Twitter sucks, you’re right! But… I’m trying to use it for good to help my friend Ousman who lives hand-to-mouth in Gambia. Even $5 would help if can gf.me/u/3yw5vb #GoFundMe

Here’s an ethically-sourced rhodolite garnet I cut and set in a gold mounting. This stone is custom faceted and shows great flashes of pink and purple. The garnet is 4.3 carats and I obtained it directly from the Umba River area of Tanzania #Jewelry #Gemstones #ethicallysourced

I’ve been binge watching How It’s Made - and now I want some custom made skis, some roofing shingles and a bowler hat

Aloha and happy #FossilFriday Here’s a theropod tooth I recovered in the Lance Creek Formation of Wyoming. I looked for over an hour to find the broken tip 😭 Gummy bear for scale.
