As if “the economy” is separate from the clear need, including the ECONOMIC need, to address the #ClimateCrisis. This “false choice” framing is the most moronic argument an awful politician could make, and shame on any of us for falling for it. The massive costs of INACTION are already inescapable.

AWESOME work by some incredible scientists. Papers like these that investigate how we think about and conduct our science are so important. Read, read, read it! Congrats to my grad school labmate Ren, @leafwarbler.bsky.social, and coauthors :)

Republicans are trying to take away and criminalize the right to make decisions around our own health, whether that’s the right to wear a mask or the right to have an abortion. Unacceptable.

Spring ephemeral roundup - 1 Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis) - 2 Blue Cohosh (Caulophyllum thalictroides) - 3 Yellow Trout Lily (Erythronium americanum) - 4 White Trillium (Trillium Grandiflorum). Did you know that bloodroot seeds are ant-dispersed (myrmecochory)? I love their clasping leaves.

Accomplishing something big like a PhD doesn't often end like you planned. Many discovered this during the pandemic, and I discovered it after an ER visit screwed up my defense plans. idk who needs to hear this, but: It might not end how you envisioned, but you did the thing, and that's enough. :)

I read two of the shoulda-been Hugo nominees who got McCarty’d out of their rightful spots: Upstart by Lu Ban clarkesworldmagazine.com/lu_12_22/ And Hummingbird, Resting on Honeysuckles, by Yang Wanqing clarkesworldmagazine.com/yang_11_22/ And now I want a Book Club to TALK ABOUT THESE.

Absolutely this, and likewise block the "oh well, it's too late to do anything" crowd. Climate change is a dial, not a switch. Everything we do to turn down the ppm on atmospheric CO2 is a win that will save lives.

"Convincing the mind to prioritize access instead of as an afterthought is powerful shit." Because of Bluesky, I started to retrain myself starting with photos since I post lots of food pics. Before, adding ALT text was afterthought. Now it's the 1st thing I do, and I do it on all social platforms.

We are wiping from the world, species that have evolved for millions of years. Once they're gone they're gone forever, never to return. And for what? There is no crime or sin greater in the history of humanity than what we're doing to the planet's biosphere.
