Strategic wording from @UBC’s survey on allocation of yet another tuition increase. ‘Understanding’ student affordability? It isn’t affordable. Invest in actually fixing it, which wasn’t an option. Do better. #PhDlife

I’m excited to have my first experiment published! We tested for negative frequency-dependent selection within phenotypically intermediate threespine stickleback populations. Thanks to @louisechavarie @MHKinney @DolphSchluter for working on this with me onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec…

@BenGFreeman1 Question: If everything in the hybrid zone is an integrade, in what environment is this higher hybrid fitness being measured?

is there any good reason why Glaucous-winged and Western Gulls should continue to be classified as distinct species? - the "hybrid zone" is ~ 500 km long, everything in this zone is an "integrade" - some evidence that these "hybrids" have higher fitness than pure parentals

HUTS 2020 coming at ya! 🦠💦

@sowylie By far my favourite so far! Thank you for these 🙌

BIRD BEATS: BOREAL OWL. If you’re just catching up, this is what I do in my off time now 🤠

My brother @CarsonKinney just published his first first-author paper, as an undergrad! Proud big sister moment 😁 mdpi.com/1996-1073/12/2…

Nature can be brutal! Dragonfly larvae caught and ate this poor stickleback. Spines don’t help in this case, when your predator can grab on. @louisechavarie @Apex_Herbivore

Back to sticklebackin’

6 in a truck waiting (comfortably?) for the ferry to go sampling sticklebacks...how that happened!? # schluterlabexpedition

Sticklebacks can display great colors! Who knew!? Learning every day! #schluterlabexpedition

@e__music I'm beginning to forget the Canadian terms for things and only know Aussie. Which basically means I forget the end of the word.

@Chet_Faker you are a wanker. Show up already.

@e__music After having gone to a school presentation and witnessed that very question, adults are WAY less accurate. #notdeadbabies

@e__music At least you got out the door. Every day I wake up and tell myself 'tomorrow is my day' and sleep more.

@e__music Ugh this got me right in the heart. I went and looked at my team pic from the last game we played together. Miss those girls.

This is the life. Let me live here forever #summernights instagram.com/p/lkA11hxSGJ/

@e__music @Leujo No, Queensland doesn't do daylight savings. Much like Saskatchewan. So only 14 hours ahead now, woo!

@e__music @Leujo It's not even midnight Ena, and it's Friday! We aren't senior citizens like yourself quite yet.

@e__music @Leujo I just came back from skating 20 mins ago. Doubt those skates were sharpened in two years :( I miss real ice.
