Little pings in the silence: how a big plastic watch keeps me connected to a Mexican friend who died too young.

corky parker on Substack Do I look tired? Do I look happy? I am so very much both. Do I look like I am on day one of six weeks off?!? Whooo hoo! Nothing like feeling like you freaking deserve some time off — and getting it...

I couldn’t march on Saturday. I’m working on a boat in Alaska. I was moved by Gavin Newsom‘s words, urging us to resist in whatever form it takes or we can. Somehow it compelled me to finish this hard piece to write; to honor my friend Jesús, and so many others.

This weird little life of mine Who does this? Who would choose to work like this?

"It’s totally volunteer. 100% labor of love. It’s totally out of love for the wilderness, the kids we bring into it, the importance of the research our scientists do, and the partner I do it with."

Natural History Expeditions | Alaska Research Vessel | Alaska Endeavour Alaska Endeavour hosts scientists on the research vessel Endeavour to study the nature, science, history, and culture of Alaska.

Thanks. Best for them to email expeditions@alaskaendeavour.org. And yes, probably a lot easier for US students, the closer, the better as travel may or may not be included. Really appreciate you sending on.

It’s not like it’s a paying gig. It’s strictly volunteer —-nonetheless It’s important work. Driving Endeavour, being at the wheel, especially when I’m alone is like being asked to do nothing but watch the sea and sky. Sigh ..#SoutheastAlaskaWilderness #OutdoorScienceEducation

The Gift of What Matters Kids, Science, Nature, Conservation

I’ve spent most of the winter, probably like most of us wondering WTF we do now. It ranges from the largest, collective, existential sense to the smallest day-to-day right at this minute, what the heck can I do to balance the shock and sadness with day-to-day life?

Can we do a class action suit? We have paid for these services and they’re being upheld. No?

Hard to know where the art ends and the mess starts or if those boundaries matter… First time even pretending to play with paper and glue in years. Feels good but I miss the old realm of social media —as a place to be silly and share this sweet moment. But then these days I miss sweet silly moments…

Thinking about all those Forest and Park Service folks who may be scrambling for work. Especially, folks in Alaska. Please share. #SEAlaska #alaskaSummerJobs #Conservation #MaritimeAlaska #naturalist

Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer.

"Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

Learning about the Keeling Curve derived from the continuous measurements of CO2 at Mauna Loa was a formative moment in my education. This is heartbreaking and frightening 💔
Always thought of the data itself as apolitical but we're in different times.

Well duh. Too bad all the other thousands of people who’ve thought it before were too shy. :)

FYI for those still using AirBnB — Joe Gebbia, a co-founder, still partial owner, is reportedly a close friend of Musk and recently joined Musk's Department of Government Efficiency. F-Airbnb F them all.
