I keep coming here to dump my different flavor of weird. Shared these pics in another digital space, but didn’t share the background of my October hike at the Arthur Butler Sanctuary, of my gasp at finding trees dancing, wondering if I needed an actual camera instead of my phone.

I think I’ve lost some practice being vulnerable or everything is just exhausting. But walking around town lately, this has been one of the most beautiful Falls in a long long time. The visuals are a welcomed sharp contrast to the news. I need these moments to recharge & keep going. 😭

Gov. Greg Abbott sets Nov. 4 special election to fill U.S. Rep. Sylvester Turner’s seat
The decision to wait until November means a narrowly divided Congress will be down a Democratic representative for most of 2025.

This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH
