Bf: why are you using PowerPoint for a thesis?

Me: buckle up buddy this is a long explanation.

If you struggle with writing, I found making a PowerPoint and converting it to PDF later then opening in word and editing into format is incredibly useful.

That was my first thought. That one is an incredibly sad story considering how he literally taught himself and was so intelligent.

I actually live really close to that one!

Since I just watched a "documentary" about a dam failure.
Discuss... What is your opinion of the worst or most catastrophic dam failure in the United States history?

Here's to ruining (or is it improving) your bougie bf by getting him to enjoy a day getting muddy, hiking, breaking rocks and collecting fossils. He even enjoyed it! Chewie in the background was thoroughly done at this point.

Just this past week? Or in general? Once Twitter changed I kind of went over to insta and FB but lately deleted my FB to make an attempt to do more science and be outside more. It's been a wild two years!

Field notes: Field staff unimpressed by Quaternary erosional features. Will work for treats only

😂 we were at the same place! We left at like 1600

Extra points if you know where this Geologist went today! #pupfish
This water will actually experience a seiche if there's an earthquake on the other side of the planet such as one in Japan. #geology #stem #nevada

#OvertonAZ still holds up to be a beautiful little city nestled in some fantastic #geology

Just logging into your new systems for work and seeing you went from Environmental Scientist to Environmental Scientist II is like the science Christmas Day!
I'm now probably well embedded into this field

When she first arrived

Some might remember Zoe from Twitter days. She was a rescue I found in 22' but honestly I think she actually saved me.
I wish we would have had more time with her, and we will always have a special place in our hearts for her, but today she let me know she was ready to go onto her next life 🩵

Went biking behind a volcano here in Idaho this weekend!
Extra points if you know which one it is. And by goodest boi went and did so great as his first biking experience. #idaho #volcanoidaho #butte

Researching pet deaths in the airlines

Let me say my very preliminary conclusion is this: just drive, don't fly with your pets in a cargo hold.
Not so much an airline problem as a, animals don't enjoy it.

Every geologist has that one shelf that screams, structural disaster!

APD- Air permits division?
No
APD+ Actually Pretty Difficult

Being an environmental scientist is 90% saying "you can't leave that chemical there..." The other 10% is a mixed bag.

Guess who's amazing bf pre ordered this for her??? 😏 #lego

Being the person who can do everything.... Sometimes becomes a large pain. My car threw a code for the thermostat and of course, it's under EVERYTHING else. It's all put back together now except for the positive battery terminal which I lost the nut to and the coolant.

Hiking on another volcano in Idaho. Looking for the East Idaho Treasure

So happy for you! Well deserved 🎉

Justin used something else and didn't get any bites, I caught a couple and a ton of bites

Worms, I almost never use anything else

Progression of me fishing, after telling my bf "we can fish from shore " Also I appear slightly lopsided up top because, I had to hold my beer somehow

He doesn't have blue sky so he isn't. I'm slowly getting him into rocks 😂

How are you all???

Trying to get my BF into rocks so I asked, which one? He said Okenite because it sounds like Okinawa and I can't say no because, he's involved in something nerdy I like.

Rio tried his best to help the medium humans get ready for their first day. He did successfully filter their faces for social media posting, so there's that.

Oh crap! I hope you guys all recover quick

Have we started a #FaultCup yet?
Seems like it's a shame if we haven't!
