When you're grabbing images for #mapillary and you pass a brewery, you have to stop. Rules are rules.

I've played through this game so many times.

... And even better when I see folks I wouldn't expect staring at the game. Am I contributing less interpersonal conversations? Sure. But love seeing the soccer support.

My biggest accomplishment the last few months has been going to breweries/sports bars and asking them to switch from perpetual ESPN to whatever major soccer game is on that DAY. #EURO2025 #ClubWorldCup #MLS

AN AMERICAN PILOT HAS FLOWN HIS PLANE INTO THE MOUTH OF THE ALIEN SHIP WITH A LIVE MISSILE AND TRIGGERED A MASSIVE EXPLOSION!!

When your work and hobbies align, that's a special day.

1. Work for satellite company.
2. Like hockey.
3. Collect sports cards.
4. Spend too much time on eBay

Satellite themed set of Upper Deck Series 1 Hockey cards.

@camillacaros.bsky.social I just had a National Grid smart meter installed on my house and feel the need to call Gil.

@wisemana.bsky.social maps on the Nats new city connect. Guess I should have bought a cherry blossom one when I had a chance.

Had always been interested in maps. My dad worked in emergency management and that gave a great foundation for me using spatial data for response. The tools though...always have to stay nimble, there's plenty to learn!

I like the Aaron Glenn hire by the Jets but why have they not yet hired a GM? Knowing them, they'll hire someone who clashes with Glenn and fires him within a year.

Map showing the number of times a location has burned in SoCal and which kind of fire it was: one burning under Santa Ana winds, or one that was a summer, fuel-driven fire without Santa Ana winds. Malibu area had burned at least 8 times from 1900-2017, and has burned twice now since. Image from Kolden and Abatzoglou (2018): https://www.mdpi.com/2571-6255/1/2/19

Here's the reality about the #LAFires this week: this isn't the first time ANY of these places have burned. Not even close. In 2018, we mapped CA fire history to look at fire frequency across SoCal. Santa Monica Mtns area burns more than anywhere else -- up to once per decade in a given spot. 🧡

@josemonkey.bsky.social have you used Mapillary in any of your videos? Wouldn't have helped with your Egypt find, but sometimes helps when Streetview fails.
