First time chairing a technical session at the Geological Society of America's annual meeting in October in Denver, CO titled Human Impacts on the Hydrologic Cycle (T134). Please support the session by submitting an abstract or forwarding on to colleagues who may be interested.

Greetings! We are a collaborative group of LGBTQ+ and ally geoscientists seeking to better understand the landscape of LGBTQ+ individuals in the geosciences. You are invited to take our survey using the following link. utk.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9T…

Do you know of or are you a woman working in hydrology? We want to celebrate #WomenInHydrology in a Special Issue of the Journal of Hydrology #womenJOH-SI..1/

@GYenta @StephenAtHome What got me is that they put the women at the end, off to the side of the group, instead of interspersed with their colleagues.

@StephenAtHome It's just so glaringly obvious that they need more women.

Before I order these figures, does anyone know if you can take them out and play with them or are they glued to the display stand?

@SharlieMello @sarahcpr I don't understand where there is any level of hate in @sarahcpr's post. Several comments have more of a hate tone than the original post. I get a sense of confusion and frustration from Sarah's post. Just because someone doesn't understand something, doesn't mean they hate it.

Ow my brain..... Favorite new optical illusion!!

Really great article on pollution, hazard assessment maps, EPA standards, and liability. The last sentence is a fantastic concluding statement. #scicomm denverite.com/2021/04/09/map…

Call your senators and tell them to support #DebforInterior. Being the first Indigenous person to head the DOI, and second in a Cabinet position, will inspire and provide hope, not only to the Indigenous Peoples of this land, but to all who have vision for the future.

We can take smarter action and plan better for our shared and uncertain future scenario, if we look to the past and learn @Planet_TX

@makearne @EstOdek Good luck!! I can't even imagine trying to defend my dissertation right now. (However somehow managed my proposal defense back in April when the pandemic started.) Just relax and let the science come to you. You got this!!

@EstOdek Well...my PhD defence is Tuesday... So you know... fine

On a scale of extremely exhausted to pretty much burnt out exactly how tired are we all right now??

Very cool visualization! A great example of how you can take the same data and tell a different story by changing the way you look at it.

I love this! Some days #impostersyndrome kicks in and #AcademicMentalHealth takes a toll, but at the end of the day you can look in the mirror to see the reason you show up every day. You are a scientist and you do belong! @AcademicChatter @LadiesOfLandsat @WomenWhoCode

Had a great past couple days with #GeoForGood20! It's great to see so many projects working towards making relevant information accessible & impactful. Chatted with Google developers about integrating #GoogleEarthEngine into @DiscoverViz to leverage benefits of cloud computing.

@NoobChic @Vesemirr @Nolanarchist_ @atrueindyscot @TheRealjonnae @Ron12864009 @ProudSocialist @DrJillStein Why does it matter? The fact that we can't even respect each other as human beings and fellow Americans is what's really ruining things. There is no need for name-calling and shaming people because they believe different. It's ok to care about our home, the US, in different ways.

Dear @DrJillStein, I owe you an apology. A few years ago I said that anyone who voted for you or a third party “wasted their vote.” I’ve since realized how corrupt our two-party system is and that the only wasted vote is one cast out of fear instead of hope for a better world.

@Noratoriou5 @MamaBear4All @ProudSocialist @DrJillStein That's why there was " " around it.

@goodness_truth There's a fine balance between not acting out of fear of worse suffering in the future and acting out of desperation to end the current suffering.
