I kill things for science (mostly plants). I study crops, weeds, and sometimes other things at a University in Wyoming (but this is a personal account). I like taking photos and writing #Rstats code, but not at the same time.

This postseason must be really stressful for Dodgers & Jays fans. I guess the nice thing about being a Rockies fan is by the time October comes around each year I'm completely emotionally detatched from baseball.

Nebraska residents and former inmates are frustrated by plans to turn a Work Ethic Camp into an immigrant detention center.
