Was playing the 'Soft Instrumental' playlist on Spotify for our foster dog and was surprised at how hard this slaps when it came up. Absolutely gorgeous Ólafur Arnalds track. open.spotify.com/track/3ZgOax...

Very interesting analysis.

Also shows that GMOs aren’t really delivering as promised.

I published this figure in 2017 showing how herbicide use has increased in maize, soybean, cotton, rice and wheat from 1990 to 2015. www.nature.com/articles/nco...
Figure showing the steady increase in herbicide use intensity in U.S. crops. Nearly all crops show a steady, linear increase except soybean, which decreased until around 2006, then increased until the end of the study (around 2015).

Getting inspired by the Community Data conversation with @abmakulec.bsky.social and @rahulbot.bsky.social on finding ways to present data that engages our senses and data humanism/small data ❤️

Also realizing I need to integrate baked goods more into my work.

In heavy times like these I like to reflect on these words by poet @maggiesmithpoet.bsky.social to invite creativity into my life to keep moving forward.
So often we think of loss as only destructive, but it is also generative—because every ending is also a beginning. When one thing vanishes, a space is created in its place. Of course, when we grieve, we are mourning a loss, but why not also ask what might grow in that barren place? Why not ask: What could I plant there? - "Keep Moving" by Maggie Smith
