  • We (me much more strongly than my wife) are considering leaving altogether.

    One reason I advocated for the twin cities as our "final" stopping point was because the boundary waters are a very porous border and I know i could get my family across with relative speed and low risk

  • Politics have been a convenient correlation, but I've been convincing my wife to move further and further north to more climate-change resilient areas

    Almost like that poleward range shift is gonna affect humans just like any other animal

  • What about it made her want to move?

  • Lean-to is ideal in my mind because it naturally makes a little burble of still air for the teensy fire to grow in initially

  • He's a healthy, happy boy.

    (His sisters don't always like how intensely he plays, since he's very energetic and 17lbs, but oh well)

  • Nah, I just like setting my phone to 0.5 zoom and getting REALLY close to take pictures of him

  • 100%. He played the long game and boy, it's a crushing victory

  • I've always been critical of Sabrina Carpenter's music. But I love the deck she built for my house.

  • I'm telling you, spend a few days actually looking for and actually SEEING moss, it'll blow your mind

  • There is a strip of grass beside the driveway to my complex's parking structure with one tree in it.

    That tree and the surrounding grass has at LEAST five species of moss living on it, so I just slow down on my walk to the car and appreciate those diverse, weird little plants

  • Moss is weird, dude

    Jump

  • Ah HA, you've fallen for the same trap i did. The veins in leaves are actually described as "vein-like" and are purely structural. Likewise, the stems are structural, mosses are non-vascular

  • I'm really salty because it mirrored my thoughts about the research almost exactly, but I'm loathe to give attaboys to it

    Jump

  • I mean, I value the knowledge as well as the job prospects

    But also, take it easy, i didn't personally insult you

  • Critical thinking

    Jump

  • I mean, it's a matter of perspective, i guess.

    I did a final assignment that was a research proposal, mine was the assessment of various methods of increasing periphyton biomass (clearing tree cover over rivers and introducing fertilizers to the water) in order to dilute mercury bioaccumulation in top river predators like trout and other fish people eat

    There's a lot of tangentially related research, but not a ton done on the river/riparian food webs in the GSMNP specifically and possible mitigation strategies for mercury bioaccumulation.

    OBVIOUSLY my proposal isn't realistic. No one on earth is gonna be like "yeah sure, go ahead and chop down all the trees over this river and dump chemicals in that one, on the off chance it allows jimbob to give trout to his pregnant wife all year round"

  • I'd say it's good at things you don't need to be good

    For assignments I'm consciously half-assing, or readings i don't have the time to thoroughly examine, sure, it's perfect

  • Critical thinking

    Jump

  • The only substantial uses i have for it are occasional blurbs of R code for charts, rewording a sentence, or finding a precise word when I can't think of it

  • Critical thinking

    Jump

  • This is my stance exactly. ChatGPT CANNOT say what I want to say, how i want to say it, in a logical and factually accurate way without me having to just rewrite the whole thing myself.

    There isn't enough research about mercury bioaccumulation in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park for it to actually say anything of substance.

    I know being a non-traditional student massively affects my perspective, but like, if you don't want to learn about the precise thing your major is about...... WHY ARE YOU HERE
