Wow indeed! In my 4 years at UAF - didn’t cancel classes once. The rule for elementary schools was outside recess unless temps below -30!

Marketing and propaganda are pretty amazing- can get many to do things against their own - and the broader communities best interests….

If Trump takes Greenland, what is the over/ under of number of countries boycotting Olympics? How many US athletes will sit out?

@agu.org AGU25 in NOLA is a treat. Great to catch up with colleagues, meet new students and other Earth and Space scientists, learn new things, get inspiration, and share our science. Thanks AGU for convening and supporting our community!

Should be out of hospital tomorrow with a long β€œmostly back to normal” recovery but good prognosis and already feeling much better… first time in my life in the hospital - so a good run and thankful for the care.

Opportunity to reflect on many things as I recover in my local hospital’s pulmonary-cardiac unit for a few days… Can we please turn the page on the no-good-awful 2025!

In US at least, the unwelcoming culture for most (the 70% of population that are non white men) is a big part of problem.

Wow… I’ve lived in ignorant bliss my whole career with regards to number of proposal rejections. Probably would be helpful to figure out that number to share with my group- though an example of resilience with privilege is not necessarily transferable to many.

SNAP funded for the rest of FY26, three appropriations bills, and no rescission seems to be the sweetener for 8 DEMs, but not sure that would pass House….
