It’s been 15 years since this song came out. Long enough that someone born the year it came out could be mentioned in a sequel. Things may be dark now, but it will get better. If for no other reason than there will be graves that need to be pissed on. youtu.be/XP4clbHc4Xg?...

Every summer I repost this article on how to spot drowning. Please read it and pass on. In the last few years I’ve had SIX messages from people who saved a kid’s life after clicking on the link from my feed. slate.com/technology/2...

@victoriascott.bsky.social saw this gem in a parking lot and immediately thought you would appreciate it. According to the dash, less than 100k miles.

It might just be time to update the system requirements for your training.

The Chevy brightdrop goes unnecessarily hard for a panel van.

FINALLY got all my business paperwork in order.

Damn

Today I learned what metal fume fever is. 🤢

ALERT! ALERT! ALERT!

Someone relayed to me a tale of a fellow who went into a clinic for STD screening and proceeded to hit on every woman working there. It amazes me how people are given talents and use them for nefarious purposes.

I would like to congratulate all millennials on being too old to be drafted, we did that. 😂🤣😂

Since we’re doing throwbacks to the early 2000s apparently, here’s one of my t shirt ideas that would sell I don’t care how cringy it is. I’m just too lazy to learn how to make and market t shirts. “James Blunt says I’m beautiful” w/ the ending scene of the music video as the background. U kno the 1

At this point Trump is just copying Soulja Boy’s grifts. He released a phone, a shoe, a watch, and a phone before Trump did.

This man is my hero because he’s a member of the United States Air Force and is standing by his #Oath to the #Constitution! I’m hoping that since he has taken the lead others will follow because this is what a true American Soldier looks like! Remember your Oath to the Constitution

It’s only fitting that most police and national guard units wear either a shade of tan or black. Sending the military into Ireland also did an excellent job in preventing violence They were able to resolve the issue in (checks notes) 30 years youtu.be/S7woEXovruc?...

I met a visitor when I went home for the weekend. Yes it came out from under the bed.

Seriously. Wear your ear protection. Double up if you need to, tinnitus has been especially bad today.

Some weeks are months

Recently had a conversation with someone from a conference I attended where we discussed elementary school and was reminded of this long but evergreen journal article. If you take the 15 mins or so to read it, you might find some things from childhood make more sense. www1.udel.edu/educ/whitson...

The work truck is getting up there in miles… also funny number because life can’t always be serious.

Not sure if I will ever be cooler than the time I rolled up to a class I was TAing blasting S&M while dancing along. After getting out of my car, an undergrad asked why were you blasting that song. I answered in a deadpan tone because it’s a bop and I’m pretty sure I broke their brain…

@iwriteok.bsky.social fascinating story as usual. Really explains some older family members beliefs. Not going to say you’re wrong, but I’ve always heard chelation pronounced as key ley shen. Otherwise can’t wait for part 2

Happy tree Tuesday.

I’m sure I’m far from the first person to notice this, but it’s shocking to me how a loved one recommended the Audible (an Amazon company) exclusive based on 1984 without irony or criticism.

Field work ain’t always bad. It’s nice to take a break and go with the flow. Have a moment of zen.

One day we’ll find it…the rainbow connection

@deepseadawn.bsky.social Good evening Dr. Wright. Watching your video clips from the GIS for Climate Action MOOC and I have to know- are your shelves from a store or made from dimensional lumber? If the latter, do you have any way to share the plans?

Oh no, crepe myrtle bark scale is causing serious damage to arguably the most prolific non-native tree species planted in the southeast. If only there were native alternatives like redbuds, black gums, fringe trees, buckeyes, or about a dozen others

Been thinking about this song a lot lately youtu.be/pUBKcOZjX6g?...

In positive news today, it snowed!

In keeping up with the news, I went reading through my mother’s handwritten COBAL code and notes. It is a completely different beast 😳

See here's how to do a headline. fortune.com/2025/02/13/e...

@danwoodswriter.bsky.social I broke down and got a copy

Just having one of those days

I found my old iPod while purging items. A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar holds up after…. *%#! 21 years.

Longing to be back in the field playing with dirt

If you end the Veterans Suicide Prevention program you support Veterans dying by suicide. Donald Trump supports Veteran suicide. Call it what it is.

The crazy things we do for work.

Classic Americana pitstop during fieldwork.

Ever wonder what snow in the swamp would look like? This is 5 miles into the Louisiana swamps in the Atchafalaya basin... it's unreal... having lived down there for the first 28 years of my life, we never saw anything like this. Smashed records. Curtesy of Garrett Roberts.
