"I think a person can have enough judgement from reading books and being informed outside of traditional experience..."
"What books would you have read that would have informed your opinion on what grants to cancel based on DEI?"
"There were no books."
"Do you think it's inappropriate in any way that someone in their 20s with no experience with grants or federal government was making personal judgement calls about what grants to cancel?"
"No, I don't think it's inappropriate."
A 2020 Bureau of Indian Affairs report estimated Tribal relocation costs at $4.8 billion over the next 50 years. Meanwhile…
This is more than twice what it would cost the federal government to honor its trust responsibility and fund Tribes to relocate villages and infrastructure away from sea level rise and other climate hazards.
Instead, they’re literally putting fuel on the fire.

The official NOAA stats out this week confirm that winter 2025-26 was the warmest on record across a huge portion of the western and central U.S., which has contributed to extremely low mountain snowpack & worsened the CO River crisis. Meanwhile, record March heat is in forecast.

Max, carb lurker.
Amazing work @cdelawalla.bsky.social and Stand Up for Science organizers across the country - thank you!
Agreed. A good cantaloupe is divine and bears no resemblance to what most of us think of as cantaloupe.
Also very much looking forward to one day seeing everybody responsible for these atrocities against our neighbors held accountable to the fullest extent of the law.
Reminding myself that the ability to still be shocked - for our hearts to continue to recoil and break anew - is a good thing.
May we never, ever get used to this, until the day we don’t have to.
Thanks for coming out to #StandUpForScience today, Seattle! Huge thanks to the organizers and other speakers.

When the US govt terminated the National Nature Asst, @phillevin.bsky.social + the author team were determined not to let that stop them.
They re-organized, set up an advisory committee, found funding…and now the brand new Nature Record is open for public comment. 👏🌳👏🌲
Check it out (link below)!
I love this time of year. Red-flowering currant (Ribes sanguineum) in bloom, as seen today on UW campus.

More culture, please!
Honestly didn't realize authoritarianism would be this cheesy.
Corporate broadcast coverage of climate change fell 35% in the last year, even as Trump systemically dismantled climate policy and billion-dollar disasters rose
The gradual deprioritization led NBC climate reporter Chase Cain to hit a breaking point, and he quit last week
Here's our interview:
Good news: Scientists were wrong about how bad sea level rise is.
Bad news: It’s even worse than we thought.
It looked cool, but it was super inconvenient - no air or light in the back, windows didn't roll down, etc.
I was once in a band that toured in a white, 1970s Oldsmobile hearse.
That’s very kind - thank you!
