You wouldn't know it to read this site, but I really do have an inner editor, telling me not to talk about boring topics -- like the weather. I never make weather posts, what could be more unoriginal?

I am making an exception today. Sweet god, what is going on!? It is snowing fluffy white tree sperm EVERYWHERE today. I say snowing, but that doesn't convey the sense of horizontal, and reverse gravity maneuvering the seeds seem to delight in. They never deign to touch the ground, they just float through the air forever.

And it is DENSE man. Pedestrians bury their noses in their hands. My sinuses are now 12% chinese maple.

There is no escape. The little bastards are everywhere. It is now the Tree Pollen Republic of China, the people have no will to resist, and the revolutionary spirit of of the pollen is too great. We are defeated.

Update: It looked like this. Thanks Xiaowen.
