@TJandCasper Ah, still looks like a great day for a drive. Stay safe out there!

And we are back in the UP of Michigan

@randallwcarlson Ended in the blink of an eye in planetary time and yet no one seems to acknowledge that. Living in Michigan where there are virtually no flat areas in virgin forests; one must ask how quickly the vegetation secured the soil from erosion.

The last great ice age terminated in a geological instant - trillions of tons of ice melting away within a few thousand years. Randall’s challenge is direct and pointed. Where did the thermal energy come from to drive that transformation at that speed? There is no consensus answer. The mechanisms that trigger the onset of an ice age and those that bring about its termination remain scientifically unresolved - competing theories exist, but no framework has achieved the kind of broad agreement that would qualify as settled science. That gap matters enormously to Randall because of what is claimed in its absence. If the scientific community cannot reach consensus on what causes ice ages to begin or end - processes that have reshaped this planet repeatedly within the human timeline - then the assertion that climate science is settled becomes extremely difficult to defend. Randall is not dismissing the study of climate. He is pointing at a fundamental inconsistency - that the most dramatic climate events in Earth's recent geological history remain without agreed explanation, while certainty is simultaneously claimed about the mechanisms driving change today. The thermal energy that ended the last ice age is still unaccounted for. That is not a minor footnote. It is a problem at the center of the entire conversation.

@Sorrels97 @GrainStats Have you ever considered that maybe you’re too reliant on government subsidies and crop insurance?

At what point do us farmers just throw our hands up and park everything for a while? This is an honest question because the price of fuel is way too high along with fertilizer, seed, equipment, and insurance. It’s just not fun anymore #Agtwitter #AgX #farming #agriculture

@end3of6days9 I remember dad patching inner tubes with those. WTF did we stop using inner tubes? Everything is tubeless now and tires going flat because the beads don’t seal.

This guy finds an old tin in his grandpa’s toolbox and thinks it’s a cigarette case. Nope — it’s full of 75+ year-old vulcanizing tire patches. He cuts a hole in an inner tube, lights one on fire to vulcanize the rubber… and it STILL works perfectly 🔥 They really don’t make ‘em like they used to.

@boomstickbabe Grok has helped me with several antique pieces. Send it that picture with “Please identify and value this item”

Unpacking some things I had of my father who passed away a while ago. I came across this Case brand knife. The grips are clearly some type of bone. Are there any knife experts out there who want to tell me more about this beauty? I’d like to restore it.

@Darkdarling00 Freed slaves were given reparations after the civil war. If you didn’t get yours; it’s because you were never a slave.

What’s your response to this person ??

@Ford_Nick Live Main Lobster

Name one thing better than a ribeye..

@davidbr66383219 @boomstickbabe Sorry Bro. The lesser of 2 evils is still evil. We’re not going to vote our way out of this. Voting is just an illusion of choice now. The only scant chance of change is a Convention of States and I doubt that can kill the monster in DC.

@boomstickbabe Your absolutely correct they are all traitors to the Constitution just vote for the best individual it's all we have left for now the alternative is a war and that will forever change the country. Unfortunately we may not have a choice.

I’m politically homeless. My true feelings are they are all corrupt. There are no party lines - only patriots and tyrants.

@Johnnypatriot26 Black Walnut

Can anyone help identify this tree? #arborist #outdoors

@FenixAmmunition @theficouple Buying new vehicles is a foolish decision. I know. I did every 2-3 years for decades. Pissed thousands of dollars away and they only carried my ass from point A to point B.

@theficouple It's almost like you believe depreciation is something to be afraid of.

When you bought the $50,000 Tesla Model Y to save on gas & maintenance. Then you learned: - It loses 20-35% of its value by year 3 - It loses 55-58% of its value by year 5 So by year 5 you lost $35,000+ of value? ....Congrats on saving ~$1,000/yr on gas.

@LPNational Abolish government

ABOLISH POLITICAL PARTIES

@Fallen_Punk @rektfencer Excellent

I live in a community of families that have been on this land for generations. All the homes that are in my area contains my family. I'm not alone. I have a group of alpha males that will make anyone pay a price for even trying. There are three routes that can get you here, all three have bridges we could blow. We then have drainage canals, bayous, and thick forested swamps surrounding our clearing. Those woods are filled with tree stands and people who know the terrain. We do have some people who have invites for SHTF scenarios. These people all understand their role will be security. They have drums of ammo to bring.

EVERY SAFE HAVEN JUST FAILED BTC. GOLD. STOCKS. OIL. FIAT. THE WHOLE FINANCIAL SYSTEM IS BREAKING. WHERE DOES CAPITAL GO NOW?

@amitylee13 The original interpretation of USC limitations applied to the Federal Government and not States. You do know that, right? Once you place all rights to bear arms in the Feds hands you’re subject to the opinions of 49 other states. Be careful what you wish for.

All gun laws are infringements.

@Fallen_Punk @rektfencer They’re going to come for it. All of it and you’ll be labeled an evil person. You know that, right?

@rektfencer Land. Seed stock. Cattle. Fishing pond. Ammo, weapons, silver dollars for local currency exchange.

@JamesHu27192912 It’s all good until the tax collector seizes everything you own.

See y’all tomorrow

@DraftyBastard Culver’s if they have walleye.

I need fast food fish. Where should I go?

@BadgedPatriot Eligible for SS, but can’t afford medical insurance. Gonna have to work until Medicare starts. It’s because government made healthcare affordable. Anyone asking government to fix something is fucking moron. We need deregulation, tort reform, and free market healthcare.

Anybody out there that is pre medicare age (under 65), that may have retired early, I'm curious as to what you do for healthcare coverage?

@ChrisMartzWX The truth doesn’t fit their narrative.

Phoenix likely reached 100° on March 3, 1879 then 112° on March 30th that same year, according to Fort Data from NOAA NCEI (and Stevenson Screens were in use by that time).

I asked @Grok to create a self portrait. I think the answer was spot on! Wise, observant, and decisive.
