It's also hard to choose the pedestrian/bicycle/public transit/density option when you may not have experienced it, it may not be available to you, it's often maligned and disparaged, and it's largely only achieved through collective effort rather than individual choice.

Leveraging all those chem courses by justifying coffee storage and brewing equipment. Brewing at the right temp range really does make a difference, and in typical justification mental gymnastics, the gooseneck kettle ended up being free. (I'm on decaf now to make this all the more ridiculous.)

Relatable! Good on you for declutterring. We need to talk more about these important tasks that our culture likes to label as unglamorous. :)

After 4+ years of work the Academic Wheel of Privilege is out!

One of the most complex projects I’ve led! Deeply grateful to coauthors Justin, Bethan, Mahmoud, Flavio and 30+ expert reviewers for their care, time and dedication in developing this framework.

the price of oil surging means you can burn your shein clothes, extract the oil, and make more money than you paid

Anyway, today is International Women's Day, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to link some of those threads in one place. I hope to do more of these in the coming year.

Go ahead and mute me if you don't want a long-ish thread in your timeline! 👩‍🔬 🧪

If you are looking to spend less for subscriptions that fund problematic political behaviors, consider hitting up your library instead. The more people that use it, the more likely it is to stick around. You can have fun without spending money and accumulating stuff.

I'm on a low spend personal experiment and able to access Criterion Collection films on a rotating basis, thanks to my library. To reduce decision fatigue, I go with the titles that are leaving each month. This one was worth a watch: www.criterion.com/films/1093-m...

Having to eat more than the usual amount of fresh garlic to get to all of it before it goes bad is a great problem to have. (This may backfire haha.)
