Sat on a rock in the rain today in a national park and thought about the fact that we have a president who has almost certainly never had a quiet moment in nature in his 78 years on the planet. That simple fact explains so much.

The only thing Trump understands about science is that it won’t kiss his ass.
BREAKING from @science.org: The Trump admin is seeking to kill nearly all climate research at NOAA, its climate science agency.
Its near-final budget proposal would end all NOAA research labs, academic institutes, and regional climate centers. And it wants to fully end the NOAA Research division.

It’s Spring Break. I don’t think I’m capable of relaxing. If I try, I drown in guilt from wasting time. If I work through my time off, I feel it’s wasted.

This school week felt at least nine days long. Waking up on Saturday morning to six inches of gently falling snow is almost perfect.
