  1. What I'm reading:
    #breccia discussing society as a phase change- "There is a line. Cross it, and the arithmetic flips. The people gaming the system start to outnumber the people holding it up. Every honest person left standing starts to feel like a sucker. Then that person stops being honest, which moves the line again. Then the next person adjusts. Then the next."

    Has America Crossed the Asshole Threshold?

  6. Interesting colors and contrast between #sedimentary layers and #igneous intrusions in the Gravel Hills of the #Mojave Desert.
    From Tom Dibblee (1968),

    the layers are part of the Pickhandle and Barstow formations laid down in the Miocene. The darker purplish rock is an intrusion of #rhyolitic #breccia.
    If the rock colors appear familiar you may have seen similar combinations of these formations in the Opal Mountains, Rainbow Basin, and Calico Mountains near Barstow, CA.
