Dear @UCR_EP_Sci @UCRiverside @UCRCNAS it might be an inconvenience to move to Mastodon ... but you are supporting a business solely owed by an alt right transphobe who has opened the floodgates to climate and vaccine misinformation and hate speech. Yours, @[email protected]

For those interested in climate mitigation and geo engineering at #AGU2022 — enjoy the large scale albedo enhancement deployment event scheduled for the end of the week in Chicago.

Extinction level event. Maybe a solar flare. The job niches are available for pioneer postdoc species to recolonize.

So no floor 13 at my #AGU2022 hotel. I wonder whether when they came to laying the foundations, they considered pile driving into the bedrock, but decided instead to throw a lucky rabbits foot onto unconsolidated mud. I think I feel safer with evidence/science based decisions.

I wonder if I went overboard on the candy care packages for the students for their MATLAB programming Finals exam?

Marine ecology … the latest innocent victim. An acquaintance of the victim, who preferred to remain anonymous, said: ‘I mean, ecosystems in models were just happily living their lives, being published in CMIP6 and consuming nutrients, when they were savagely mauled in class.’

tired adjective Unable to correctly identify the correct drink receptacle. Example: I needed a refill of wine with my bowl of snacks, and I was so tired that I poured the wine over the snacks.

Ok … You wouldn’t leave your bedroom a dangerous mess. Why leave the atmosphere a dangerous mess? (Even if you stopped emitting CO2 tomorrow, it would be touch and go climatically as the ocean is still playing catch up … need to get this greenhouse mess tidied up asap)

Dear UK — my apologies. I thought the Queue was a complete waste of time. Now I realize you were practicing for everyone in the country taking it in turns to be PM. What an amazing innovation in democracy — truly government by (all) the people (in turn), for the people.

I am sad to have to report another serious accident at the white board marker factory. This one caused by some careless idiot trying to explain why density surfaces slope in the Southern Ocean.
