This was a fun story to write. hadistrict.org/2022/12/intern… #bubbletea

Subfreezing temps are returning to the Gulf Coast. I drape a sheet over the Turk's Cap in the yard. It's already bowed a bit. I try to avoid forcing it down farther while also keeping cold air out. In the end it looks like a frumpy prom queen passed out in the garden. #tinytruth

The rare freeze lasted full force for 4 days. I covered plants with sheets & towels but they weren't spared. The garden is dead. I wonder, if plants have souls, where would their spirits wander? Would they turn to me in wrath or sorrow & cry "guilty!"? #tinytruth #TexasFreeze

This really is an amazing resource - please join me in supporting it! #amwriting #sciencewriting #sciencejournalism

I'm taking a break from Twitter. I'll post links to new articles of mine, but I'm not going to engage the site otherwise. I'm shown too much garbage when I log on, including lots and lots of propaganda and disinformation. I'm not that stupid.

I rarely do interactive quizzes like this, but I had to know if living in #Texas for 19 years has changed my vocabulary - fortunately I'm still #Jersey all the way. How Y’all, Youse and You Guys Talk: See my dialect map and make your own. nytimes.com/interactive/20… via NYT Graphics

I had no idea how much art the Houston airports display until I wrote this piece. It was actually kind of fun going to the airport to check out art w/o the stress of traveling! #HobbyAirport Check the art at Hobby Airport without checking in for a flight hadistrict.org/2023/05/check-…
