Today Microsoft Word suggested I change "Genesis 1 and 2" to "Geneses 1 and 2." I will, in fact, still have a job when the robots take over.

I spent the last five summers sharing the infamous mediterranean heat with 15 species of thistles that flower at that somewhat absurd time of year, seeking to understand (something about) their thermal ecology.
Here are the results. I think all my sweat was worth it.

Flowers that cool themselves: thermal ecology of summer-blooming thistles in hot Mediterranean environments
Flower exposure to high temperature reduces the production, viability and performance of pollen, ovules and seeds, which in turn reduces individual fecundity and risks the survival of populations. Aut...

Really, let's not start with this quote-skeeting dunking on people thing.
If someone is a dingus to you, mute them. Block them. Move on with your life. Reapply your chapstick. Have some tea.
Post a photo of your pet and move on with your day.

I'm not sure how I navigated the past few years without an SSRI, but a couple weeks in, wow, I should have done this quite a long while ago. I'm so much better.

I'm tired of hearing about the university "Budget Crisis" when PSU Athletics brings in 100's of millions of $$$/yr. "Athletics is fiscally independent!" they say. That's the problem. Are we a football franchise or a University? Tax athletics. 15% of all donations/revenue should support Uni academics
