Had a great time visiting @LabHedrick at @cornellvet and learning about some of the cool work going on across campus. It was a nice break for some real fall weather too!

only @TxDOT wants more & bigger highways in #Houston. city residents are over it. the construction. the noise. the pollution. the destruction of neighborhoods & parks. you can line a light rail route with trees & grass & coffee shops & bakeries. a highway is just pavement.

NEW: President Joe Biden himself called into the @HoustonChron today saying he's been trying to “track down” the governor to get the necessary requests to release the federal aid, which includes manpower and supplies. Abbott of course has been in Asia. houstonchronicle.com/news/ho…

Folks, she CAN and she WILL
Ok that's IT! it's time to get serious about making bat wheatpastes. Little upside down flying foxes. Asking the passersby what is it like to be a bat. I can do this. I mean, historically I definitely can't, but... Maybe this time I can.
