I study fire stewardship in wetlands, enjoy reading fantasy books, and am a nonbinary-biracial-neurodivergent individual. If you can vibe with that, we can be friends! 🔥📚🏳️🌈

Damn, it’s been a rough couple of weeks. Currently laying on ice because my back got fucked up in a car accident yesterday.

I wouldn’t have gotten where I am today if it weren’t for NIH-funded programs like K-INBRE and PREP. Now future Haskell students won’t have the same opportunities. No more Bridges. No more IRACDA either.

I have to go back to work as usual today and go through all the usual motions of life as if nothing hugely traumatic and heartbreaking just happened last week. Life goes on for me but it ended for Korra. That’s fucked up.
