I did get my PhD based on that work, so of course! I just don't work in that area anymore. It's still near and dear to my heart. And thanks!

I'm Amanda, I'm an environmental scientist with CalRecycle, based on Sacramento. I'm a former vertebrate paleontologist. Now I work on implementation of SB 54, the Plastic Pollution Prevention and Packaging Producer Responsibility Act. Eventually I'll be enforcing it (once we finish rulemaking)

Maybe it says 3/4 and 1 3/4. Idk. I always get on 80 BUS W at Arden so I basically never go on this stretch. I only take El Camino occasionally when I'm going eastbound

But specifically this area on 80 Business West (you can see the sign says 1/4 mile to Arden Way and 1 1/4 mile to Exposition Blvd)

I am healing from being in academia

My bff and her husband have a golden puppy named Custard

Back when we had the tornado in Davis in 2019 I was already watching the storm and saw a funnel forming before they sent out the text alert on the WEA system

FEMA has a mobile app that you can get weather alerts on, but most weather apps should also have that setting.

Of course if you're me you just obsessively follow the weather anyway (despite being in an area that rarely receives severe storms) and know before the alerts are sent

Ok now I wanna make chili enough l even though it's "cooling off" to the mid-upper 80s for the next few days

BUT also if you go out to eat at restaurants you’re exploiting the proletariat. I feel like those two cycled for like a week.

“home cooking is regressive, NIMBY-aligned, problematically gendered, and ultimately a means of reifying existing class structures”

wait wait hold up. "having a mortgage means you don't own your house". oh god, I can't choose

*pretends to be shocked*

Think about the kind of wall to wall coverage and outrage there'd be if it turned out that the president of a state school openly admitted that the goal of their journalism program was to produce far-left propagandists like Texas A&M admitted about right-wing goals.
