Today I saw something very special: there are just 12 populations of this exceptionally rare desert bulb (Colchicum psammophilum) and only it flowers for a short time after winter rain. To find it in bloom is miraculous.

My nurse mom was a devoted early adopter.
I freak out a little at people (clears throat) who pass a little water over everything and place dishes in a rack or, worse, dry them off and put them immediately in the cupboard.

Dishwashers are just objectively superior technology: convenient, efficient, unobtrusive. They’re a legitimate marvel of modernity.
People who want to get morally superior about how they hand-wash everything really gotta reckon with the fact that machine dish-washing uses considerably LESS water and emits considerably fewer greenhouse emissions than standard handwashing practices do.
