@TheWriteDrHouse!

in today's episode of 'am i the best or the worst lecturer that these poor undergraduates are going to have this year': (with apologies to #Iso2k, for whom i originally made this glorious piece of art)

Please don't. Please don't blame mental illness. Please don't blame us because we don't blame back. Instead, please ask. Ask who we are, what we need. Ask as though for once you care. Ask what a trigger finger could do without a trigger. @LeaderMcConnell @GOPLeader @POTUS

Hey Geophysicists! The IRIS and UNAVCO Boards still want to hear from you. If you use IRIS/UNAVCO facilities, please share your thoughts with us. Also, please retweet! @geophysichick @skruse109 @leigh_stearns @gfun @BorsaAdrian @bwcphd @anneisotropic @AntarcticPippa @DrWendyRocks

@MarloWordyBird @TheJR Maybe veteran Bob can go as a mentor to a new friend, just like you’re going as an experienced OOO but also trying out new things? The inter-generational nature of the work on board is one of my favorite things about the JR and arguably one of the keys to its lasting success.

@TheJR Ohhh pretty thin sections! Good job, Thin Section Tech, and good job, Earth, with those rocks!

These kaleidoscopic images show rock ground down to about ~30um thickness (0.03mm). Luan Heywood, thin section lab tech, helps #EXP392 scientists to see the properties of minerals that make up the rocks we are recovering.#NSFfunded

@johngcapano, I heard about your work on how snakes manage to breathe while constricting prey by using different sections of their ribs on @NPR. I was disappointed that there weren’t photos of your study subjects with the blood pressure cuffs and helmets. Could you share? Thanks!

@markwbudde Yes!

Do you immediately know what this is a picture of? (y/n)

@GardMurray @LauraJSefton @YoungMongols @AubreyMenard Whoa small world. I was just reading through all these supportive tweets for you, Laura. I, too, quit my PhD. Now I’m teaching high school. I saw Aubrey tagged and thought, that can’t be the same Aubrey Menard I went to Smith with?! But it is! Cheers to all our courageous paths!

@LauraJSefton From your blog, I know you're worried this means your work will never be shared with the world—but that doesn't need to be true. The first of my grad school friends to publish a (terrific!) book chose to stop at the MPhil (@YoungMongols by the brilliant @AubreyMenard).

Apparently I took video while in transit on the @TheJR from #Exp362 drill sites to Singapore. It’s amazingly relaxing to watch. #ocean #relaxation #sunrise

Oh, I needed this right now. #ThesisWriting

@KeepItRheol @RowanMartindale @HendrattaAli @BarbaraFantechi Christie is one the best writing mentors (well, among the best mentors in general) I’ve ever had. She gets the high-level and nitty gritty but gives you the level of feedback you need when you need it. I imagine all this is even better 6 years on! (Still inspired by you.)

@MarloWordyBird Well, the one and only “game of words and whimsy, bluff and bluster” is @SaysYouRadio. Highly recommended.

Oh, and he posts contests on his blog. I’m featured in the most recent contest post! brianmhouse.com/blog #PCT #HikingAdventures

My super-awesome, very amazing partner is hiking the #PacificCrestTrail (#PCT). He’s writing a blog about the adventure. Check it out!

📢Calling #Earth science PhD students!📢 Do you love the method you use & fancy writing a short #ToolsoftheTrade article for @NatRevEarthEnv?🧐 If YES send us your proposal to nree@nature.com, please include a brief description of the tool & an original photo #ECRchat #PhDlife

@A_single_bear Flint or sleep?

I would like to discover new napping methods.

Me a young woman of color: "academia is ruthless" All men: "Shape up or ship out" "Work harder" "That's how academia is" "You chose this" "Industry is worse" Listen I get that you don't want academia to change because its toxic culture is perfect for you but SIT DOWN.

Our latest climate feedback station question is up! This week's question: What will it take to get people to act to stop climate change? Let us know your thoughts here: museumoftheearth.org/changing-clima…

Thanks, @LauraFayeTen, for another edifying Science in the Virtual Pub session! You are an amazingly resilient communicator. Thank you for standing up for the facts. I have lots of good ideas to bring to my future students! #scicomm
