Lake Maurepas Monitoring Project - Southeastern Louisiana University The overall goal of this project is to conduct a monitoring study in the Lake Maurepas ecosystem, focusing on both the abiotic and biotic components of the lake and surrounding region.

"Southeastern Louisiana University is serving as the independent monitoring group" heh

"Sediments and suspending sediments will be gathered from dredged and non-dredged areas in Lake Maurepas. Multiple point measurements will be gathered weekly using a Ponar dredge monitoring device. Chemical analyses will be conducted on the waters, suspended sediments, and organisms from the lake."

The guy who removed the only analytical chemist from the Air Products Lake Maurepas Monitoring Project. "a routine adjustment" lol

Now I have Street Hassle stuck in my head

I was on a Cocteau Twins jag after a Felt one, but after seeing a clip of the talentless dopes Adam Carolla & Jay Mohr call Lou Reed a poseur- lol. Time more for Reed. Velvet Underground alone secured his legacy.

My Rick Veitch book came in. Until his Swamp Thing run was collected, I'd forgotten he was a favorite writer, in addition to artist, because all of my comics are boxed up, stowed in a closet.

Trump administration's budget cuts could close down Louisiana LIGO observatory The Louisiana observatory that made a historic scientific breakthrough by detecting gravitational waves from black holes in space in Livingston is now at risk of shutting down from the Trump administr...

Trump's bullshit might get LIGO shut down. Even some of the local MAGA chuds are proud of that project. This won't go over well.

Apparently being on the ICE payroll isn't the payday they wanted.

The Lone Gunmen in the X-Files episode "En Ami"

Masters of disguise.

Rod Dreher needs to shut the fuck up.

Realizing that the next Tom Waits album won't have Larry Taylor on it at all. This sucks.

I don't want to go to work today. I want to go to the Land of Chalk Drawings.

Lol. Oh lord. I protested David Duke on my campus when he ran for governor. Most of my friends had better anecdotes of that day than me, but it was still memorable

Used to be more common for me when I was younger. Now I'll come back to something familiar occasionally, but never that serial effect anymore.

The lols at both beginning & end are more liked panicked giggling through clenched teeth

I completely tuned out of most mass culture for awhile 15 years ago. I can't even recall why anymore. Broke & overworked?

Lol. I threw on a "new" album. Overproduced. Slick. Thick. I wasn't into it. It doesn't belong in 2025. It sounded like an Obama era album- it turned out it actually was. Lol

1981 album from post-punk band Tronics

I must've head Tronics before because I wallowed in the Messthetics compilations from Hyped 2 Death yet I don't recall them at all. This rules.

They ought to be forced to elaborate on exactly what actions they find legal.

New York Times editorial board doing a lousy job of sheepdogging. They just love his presidency too much, no matter how embarrassing they find him.

Hakeem Jeffries wanting the story buried is collaboration.

"If you meet Elon Musk on the road [tos violation]."

The Verlaines chanting "Verlaine. Verlaine. Verlaine. Verlaine." in Death & the Maiden caused my brain to get stuck again.

1810 American planters coming down the river to seize West Florida all over.

Ah yes. The patron saint of England makes sense for a new city in the state with the most French influenced culture in the nation.

I often mull on the the white secessionist city breaking away from Bayon Rouge is named after Christofascists' favorite saint.

The apartment of a cool and normal guy.

John fucking Ashcroft

Bunch of books. Penguin classics. New design of white cover with red text. No images.

Penguin didn't think through what happens to new white covered books sitting on shelves for any amount of time. They get smeared with dirt & ink. Now I'm excited for the number of cool remaindered books in the coming year.

Purple salvia with azaleas and porterweed in pot behind it.

Rubythroats loving the new Van Remsen salvia in yard.
