"In 1975, about half of 20-somethings said they read the newspaper every day. Today less than 10 percent do," writes @rosehorowitch.bsky.social in "The End of Reading." Link below. As #journalist, it pains me. Photo below - reporter myself using phone books to find people's home addresses.

If you have the chance, I recommend the @northcascades.bsky.social nonprofit Environmental Learning Center. You can learn a lot, do some canoe time with many others. #nature #retreat

Another method of showing the same increase in temps. #climate

Thank you @kuow.org for the wonderful panel at Seattle Central Library. The podcast, Adults in the Room, was brilliant investigation of #sexual #abuse by teachers. Panel shared the "how we did it" behind journalism.

Whew. Took a #tidepool break in #Seattle and hit nudibranch jackpot.

Get your name spelled out in images from NASA satellite images of earth rivers, mountains, etc. My Ls are great, not sure about A. #science #art science.nasa.gov/specials/you...

As an advocate for #Science and facts, I beg to differ with headline. But...there is a conspiracy to wipe away science, like NIH, CDC. But not centered on those people. Beware of grocery store science. #fedcuts

Thank you to @pomonacollege.bsky.social for #social event at chihulygg (insta) Able to narrow down my "gift" list to this orb. Met 2 #scientist people from classes of 79 and 78. (He married his TA...) Talked botany and #datascience

Hooray to Nalisha Estrellas (on Insta) for her mural inside Pacific Place. #downtown #seattle

Classy @toppotdoughnuts.bsky.social in Wedgwood. 🧪🧪🧪

At a graveside service, I heard this advice. The way to mourn respectfully, the rabbi said, is to greet each day with "utter amazement" at the life we hold briefly. #funeral #memorial #spring #nature #friday

Thanks to the #CityNatureChallenge I now have seen a Thimbleberry Gall Wasp nest, in a thimble berry plant at Carkeek in #seattle. #entomology #wasp

Game = poem. Solving words ladder contemplation. Seed, power of creation, Dense, containing future Sensed, pulling from edges Endless, unspooling generations Idleness, what we need to see Thanks to The New Yorker games dept. for this 4-18 list of words. #shuffalo #bloomscrolling

Picture of drawing of cat.

Thank you to Mary Brunkow of Institute for Systems Biology in #seattle for speaking about her #Nobel prize journey. My PhD student friend gasped at slide of page 343 in the lab notes. (Because, they had to wait 342 pages for success. ) #education #science #process #SciEd #women

How many layers of nerd? #seattle theater event in April. Random built in. 5 science plays created from scratch in ... less than a week. Research as catalyst, but theater as method. No recording. You have to come see. theatreoffjackson.org/event/centri...

There needs to be a neuroscience of scale that explains when we see something - tulip X 1 million. #bloomscrolling #skagit #tulips

Any @nswa.bsky.social folks here to see @drsuzannesimard.bsky.social with our VP Lynda Mapes? #science #ecology #forests
