They’ve found another mature American chestnut tree that appears to be resistant to the chestnut blight!

This is extremely good news. Until the chestnut blight, chestnut trees were the predominant tree in eastern North America. They hope to breed this one with others.

up early getting ready to go back to volunteering-work, eating a banana and drinking chai 'cause I'm not going to stop at Safeway to get chai on the way 'cause I'm getting a Lyft 'cause it's icy out there and I would prefer to avoid a quarter-mile walk along an icy unlit road with no sidewalk and plenty of traffic 'cause I would like to *reduce* my chances of dying this morning

@matt @Jssra​ I just told Spouse this and I think it physically injured him, he was pre-coffee. XD

@cute_weeds did you drink the Terrible Stuff? or is this just a friendly visit? :D

neeeed to stop listening to music on YouTube and feed the cats and go the hell to sleep augh

(queues up Skrillex's "Reptile" next)

(might be having a relaxing dragony evening heh)

watched the second Doctor Who/Dalek "movie" (with Peter Cushing, and it was SO WEIRD seeing him NOT blowing up Alderann [sorry, spoilers]) RiffTrax with Spouse, and it was pretty horrible but funny with the commentary. now waiting for 8 pm to roll around so I can feed the cats and head to bed. tomorrow morning, I'll be heading back to volunteering! and we'll see if there's anything there to work on, heh.

Remember kids: irony is something that occurs, not something you do.

I found this Sabertooth Squirrel print in Portland. I had to have it. It might be the start of a squirrel collection. #weirdart
