I used to post about maps, GIS, and environmental chemistry, but I don't know if that's actually what I do anymore. Coauthor on a paper on bird population modeling. Probably it will be mostly science and personal photo posts here.

Are people saying things like this from a different timeline or something? His book was popular around the 2016 election, but the tide quickly turned on him after that. Immediately there were criticisms of his book. He wasn’t “elevated” for very long.

I love this suggested reel because the jerks whole have loud trucks are doing self-owns and admitting they themselves are clowns.

This person on Reddit doesn't understand that places where a lot birds hang out, there ends up being a lot of bird poop.

The first time I saw one was at my city’s Starlight Parade last month. I love the Starlight Parade, why was that thing even in it? I’m not exaggerating much when I say this, but it kind of ruined the Starlight Parade.

Birkenstock really hit it out of the park last summer with their decision to make their Milanos in glittery pink. Also glad I could wear both at once again!

My flight is delayed by an hour and half, so I’m doing “toe yoga” in the boarding area, featuring the new PDX carpet!

You really have to see it in person. It looks like a dumpster in a 2000s video game with wheels. The first time I saw one was in the middle of the Starlight Parade, and I’m not kidding, it kind of ruined the parade.

The person who shared this believes in chemtrails and the page it was from was some anti-COVID nonsense. You cannot make this up. Also, this person has the same first and last name as me.

Eight years ago, it was an internet phenomenon to watch this live feed from Jackson, WY. Comments were going non-stop. Now you need to subscribe to comment. The camera angle has tilted to the right a little - you used to be able to see the bench in front of the Jackson Trading Company store.

Yep. A branch of my family – the Shannons & the Halls – were economically important and politically powerful in NJ in the Gilded Age. All sorts of misery. My 3rd-grt-grandfather had a bunch of suicides attempts, made the papers. Heck, even his portrait got heavily damaged in the mail. Truly cursed.

Dammit, the Starlight Parade last Saturday was the thing that took me out. There was two of them in that parade.
everyone is the world is playing CYBERSTRUCK, the fun new mandatory game in which you are eliminated when you see your first cybertruck in the wild rules are similar to whamageddon, but with no end date: • the cybertruck must be real, in the wild • as soon as you notice the cybertruck, you are out

Yup! Driving is great! Still stiffness while walking around, but it’s wonderful to have my car in use again!

Two normal-looking feet on tree leg press, announcing that Leg Day is back, baby!

Tried to read the sign “Mystic Reef” I think?
