It's a beautiful afternoon to be waiting for my wife to get home to let me back into our house after I accidentally locked myself into the porch roof while cleaning gutters
The NYC subway with a 1 year old in a backpack is the kindest, friendliest place I've ever been.
on the 50th anniversary of the release of The Boys Are Back in Town I'm morally obligated to share my favorite story of all time

My most "in my day" observation on this is that it's amazing how the recommended amount of protein you need according to folks at the gym keeps going up as more companies figure out how to make more protein products. People pre-2000 must have been dying of protein deficiency all the time.

The President may, of course, engage in his own expressive conduct, including criticizing the views, reporting, or programming of NPR, PBS, or any other news outlet with whom he disagrees. The government may also fund its own speech and may fund government programs that promote specific perspectives on issues of public importance, and it may decide which views or perspectives to convey—and which not to convey—in any such government speech or program. And it may impose limits on federal grants to ensure that they are deployed to further the legitimate purposes of the program and may pick and choose among applicants based on legitimate criteria. But the First Amendment draws a line, which the government may not cross, at efforts to use government power—including the power of the purse—“to punish or suppress disfavored expression” by others.

I just resigned from NASA. It breaks my heart to leave, but I’ve become convinced the best path forward is to do the best science I can, and that can’t be here anymore. I’m still in love with the promise of those four magic letters. Ad astra per aspera, and remember: Earth is the only good planet.

If you're mid-career or senior in something related to marine biology or ocean conservation and would want to join us for a day of shark research in Miami in exchange for talking about your career path to my students, let's chat!
A cyclist was killed yesterday a few blocks from my house. Bike lanes are a culture war thing now that cuts across parties. The Trump-Bowser side of that war removes bike lanes even if it doesn't create parking or improve traffic. They think no one should bike, cyclists getting hurt is the goal.
The American Chemical Society @acs.org started a really funny and charming Planet-Money-ish youtube channel and I want more people to know about it.
