time for the daytime benadryl, got an appointment with the hat man

just gonna have a little doom for breakfast

I've been informed that it's going to be in the 80s next week and I seriously think I'm going to cry. I feel like a toddler throwing a tantrum but also the water managers in my state are fucking stupid.

future of broccoli bois is the onion man.

when I was a kid I said I wanted to change the world so now my dad asks often if I'm doing it or how I'm doing it. well, yeah, I do still, but I've grown up and realized that most of what I can change is small and living subversively is actually doing that. thanks for enabling that papa.

sometimes I find myself being too hot and putting on my sunglasses thinking if it's darker I'll be less hot. quickly I am disappointed to find it's still hot.

when I was a kid and my friends went from wanting to play with plants and mud and make catapults to watching hours and hours of harry potter puppet pals.

People really struggling with the idea that the Iranian government sucks but we shouldn't be bombing them can both be true, eh?

Great news everyone. You’re all gainfully employed

what if I actually like made it? like got it together? what happens then

putting into my PhD application "this is in no way part of a sexual conquest"

utopia doesn't exist

how do i fix how bad everyone feels all the time

Yet again, January temperatures were more than 5°C above the 1981-2010 climatology around Svalbard and the Barents Sea in the #Arctic. This coincided with a lack of sea ice, which is consistent with the long-term trend for this time of year. Data from doi.org/10.24381/cds...

one upside to there being hardly any snow in the west is that there have been fewer avalanche deaths.

sunning the perineum but with the fireplace to avoid skin cancer.

being a woman is so cool and fun especially when I dont even know what that fucking means other than men are unable see me as human and value me only as a sex object. its really frustrating because I want to want to be a woman because society views me as such and idk it wouldnt be so bad except...

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

art stuff. garden stuff. plant things. don't let them take your joy.

technology is cool and will save us all from our impending doom by making all our decisions for us based on a flawed algorithm.

sometimes I think y'all forget that we live in an incredibly misogynistic society.

the Epstein files make it very clear why the MeToo backlash was so extreme and why so much of elite society preferred Donald Trump ruling us like a king to the barest hint of accountability

welcome to my dildo forest.

bad special birthday boy! it's not your fucking birthday and you don't get a free pass. (to all the Dems not owning up to their mistakes and seeking absolution)

I like the creases where your limbs attach to your body

it's really extremely frustrating to watch any collective coherence degrade into nonsense. I've often felt out of the loop but it used to be that at least other people had some shared narrative, but now it seems the only shared narrative is misogyny and utter lack and avoidance of accountability.

giving a presentation today on the megadrought we find ourselves in in the western half of the states. while talking about stomata and breaking down the evidence of the research, I forgot the word photosynthesis. so it's going well. I'm not exhausted or distracted or anything. top tier.

Genuinely the only thing keeping me going—but it really is keeping me going—is how good it is to see people link arms and push for this to end. I cannot stop thinking about how much love people can have for their neighbors, and how much work and money is poured into breaking that love apart.

Transgender and transsexual aren’t distinct categories. They’re a spectrum where the more transsexual you are the more likely it is you’re going to heaven.

the future is ours. we have to make it a place we want to be, we have to dream it into being.

it does feel fundamentally dysfunctional, right, to beg lawmakers to use the law to force law enforcement to obey the law

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again. www.nature.com/immersive/d4...

I have a magical machine that is really good at detecting patterns and therefore I know all. except for anything that is not precisely average.

just watched a bicyclist run into the back of a car stopped to let pedestrians cross a street

DOGE likely perpetrated the most serious, far-reaching data breaches in human history, and we will be dealing with the consequences for years. Many DOGErs should have been, and still could be, prosecuted for these crimes.

sometimes you talk to people about the EPA or the endangered species act, and you get to see that people are really naïve and think that the govt could ever divine something altruistic. it's baby brained and shocking because this comes from people who work in the field and/or are scientists.

the future is still ours. act like it.

I’m finding myself so overwhelmed with rage and heartbreak and dread that I need to get up and move my body while thinking about the legacy of Dr. King today. If you find yourself in a similar predicament but still want to engage his work, here’s audio of him reading his letter youtu.be/Di05SvJ8utI

every crisis all at once!!! I demand more!

sometimes I wonder if my neighbors can hear me singing to my dog about ecology, politics, and climate change. and then there's also the songs about being a silly goose, evil squirrels, licking the floor, and being the fluffiest pumpkin pie I ever did see. usually intentionally off key.

ya know, it would be really cool if instead of this fascist bullshit, we like, worked on trying to make peoples lives better or tried to do cool science and wanted to educate the population and maybe like gave them healthcare. what if we just, idk, tried that out for a change?

I can't help but doom when I go to the snowy land and there's not enough snow to go skiing (like 6 inches max and patchy). The reservoirs are empty and it's mid JANUARY. If we have another summer of no rain and we begin it with no snowpack and empty reservoirs.... yikes. Spruce galls are cool tho.

BREAM: Is the FBI investigating the ICE agent who shot Renee Good? BLANCHE: What happened has been reviewed by millions of Americans bc it was recorded. We investigate when it's appropriate. That is not the case here. We are not going to bow to pressure. So no, we are not investigating.

every time i look up how to do a “code” on the “computer” my eyes glaze over and i want to outlaw electrons. just protons and neutrons now, that was enough for my mother and her mother, we should be happy to have those

not an ecology grad student taking apart their disposable electronics to investigate microcontrollers... no, I would never procrastinate in such a manner.

I miss when there was context. like agreed upon and written down. I don't want to talk to people who won't even acknowledge that there is a general consensus. like fuck, climate change is real and the trends are towards warming. ect ect. give the story more than a lil blurb, please!

So much good art was made at bad art for good. I don’t know who made this (was it you??) but I love it so much.

I don't want to use your stupid location tracking app and I don't want to use a universal passkey. I just want to clock into work, fuck off, I don't even want want to work, stupid.
