Arizona is the only place I've ever lived where your car can be *dirtier* after a rainstorm. I can only assume it's because of all the dust in the air?

Great talk by @chelseaharamia.bsky.social earlier today about the intersection between SETI and sustainability thought. #PSETI2025

A very sleepy Sophia, wondering what on Earth I'm doing up at 3:30 AM. To be fair, I was wondering that, too.
