The more I question my intelligence and how much I actually know as a scientist in this vast world, the more I realize it's a healthy thing to do and I must be doing something right. Because not enough people on this planet question what they know, or if it's even correct at all.

This one sentence from @theferocity's How We Fight For Our Lives gets me every time: "The sweetness we deny ourselves because the world is wailing."

"Build a brush pile," they said. "It'll be kinda ugly, but it'll bring all the birds to the yard," they said. They were right. (I've never seen Golden-crowned Sparrows in my neighborhood other than in my brush pile! This photo also contains White-crowned.)

Listening/watching to DnD games at home hits so differently than on my walks. I get minutes in before I start thinking of my own campaign and then I’m off to grab a book or eight to start looking stuff up. Hashtag DM life.
