I am sitting in my first session at #TWS2023. Air circulation here is worse than on the plane. CO2 is >2000 and climbing.

I just received a notification that someone I know at the #TWS2023 meeting tested positive for COVID. No surprise given the lack of masking and poor air circulation (informed by the CO2 readings below). I expect there will be others, too.

I just love browsing a scientific conference schedule that offers multiple talks about the importance of wildlife agencies changing their culture to adapt to new publics. And then not offering any talks explaining how to do that. 🤦‍♀️

Dearest AT&T Help, I submitted a repair ticket 12/29/23 for excessive static on my home line. Your robot said you'd fix it 1/4/24. I got a call from a 911 operator later checking I'm okay because MY LINE WAS CALLING HER ON ITS OWN.😬 Is there any way to expedite that repair? XOXO

ICYMI, the #Mackinac Bridge is closed due to hazardous ice conditions. Currently, there is no timetable for reopening. Updates will be posted to the Mackinac Bridge Twitter/X page x.com/MackinacBridge and on the website at MackinacBridge.org.

Dearest Lansing Facts 🫒, I don't know what's up, but apparently Mr. Taco has somehow escaped the confines of Lansing to confuse the general public elsewhere. The evidence: tiktok.com/t/ZPRwLkyKJ/

Things not on my 2024 bingo card: Mackinaw City installs a giant robot statue. I guess between that and the dark sky park, I should plan a trip up there. mlive.com/life/2024/06/m…

I've got a bunch of no-rent-paying swifties squatting in my house. Chimney swifties, to be exact. This is at least the 3rd year they've nested in my chimney, and I only found out because of pandemic-era wfh. Hopefully they'll keep coming back every year.

It is so weird to see Lansing excitement and current events show up in my social media feed on other platforms where I don't follow Lansing folks. The content isn't weird, just that it shows up. tiktok.com/t/ZTNNsfXVw/

I never would have thought one of the secret delights of playing a cozy post-apocalypse game is catching GenX pop culture Easter eggs, but here I am, playing MyTimeatSandrock - Evershine Awaits! and giggling when a subtle Talking Heads reference slides its way in. And it's not the first one of these.

So this year, my greenhouse populated itself with one large praying mantis and one tree frog for biological pest control. How do I get all my projects to propagate amphibians and insects to eliminate problems before they become dire? 🤔 Is this a bog witch skill?

Cabot Cove needs us.
