    Considering proposing panel on using digital ( tools, alternatives to 'the book,' etc) to advance awareness & policy on resource extraction. I'd share work on offshore oil in the '70s. Open to an experimental session, too. DM me if interested!

    Now that the has been upheld, it is unconscionable for int’l conferences to be held in the US. If you are on a planning committee for a 2019 conference, i implore you to fight tooth & nail to ensure the location is somewhere that doesnt discriminate by national origin.

    And also if I see ONE MORE nature writer using "smartphone" to stand for "last days of doomed Rome" (instead of e.g. "life-giving human connectivity") I won't be held responsible for my actions.

    Narrator voice: “But the professor has actually never read these books. She received them as review copies for reviews she never actually wrote.”

    A gentle reminder that a lot of academics are feeling frazzled, tired and at the end of their tethers by the end of the academic year. Be kind to yourself and others out there.

    Yeah. This is exactly why I take so long to answer some emails.

    Email triage strategy - Not important: mute - Important: answer immediately - VERY IMPORTANT: wait until I can answer in detail, oh no it's been a month and I still haven't answered, oh god it's been another month, maybe I can change my name and move to Alaska
