@JimmyBilly74 @megynkelly So your defense of AR-15s is that it kept him from using explosives?! Maybe the most ridiculous defense of assault weapons ever (and that’s saying a lot given all the ridiculous defenses out there)

@megynkelly The AR didn't harm Trump, the shooter did. The AR was the tool he used and he used it because it was readily available from his parent. Had it not been available he had explosives to use. Think of the chaos, pain, and tragedy they would have caused.

You are a disgusting pig who has done as much as any man alive to cast Trump as an evil, non-human demon. SIT THIS ONE OUT HORROR MAN.

apple.news/AIyIHA58gSgyEk… yet somehow it’s the liberals that are indoctrinating kids in schools? This sucks!

@MJVanni It could be even redder and not take it which I’m sure some will not

Ah, life in a red state. Happy to take money from programs that most of their congresspersons opposed as woke, leftist, too expensive, or not necessary because climate change isn’t real🙄🙄🙄I’m glad the state is asking, but the irony…

I use Wikipedia Education in my biogoechemical processes course that I teach at UofM. I've been doing this for several years now instead of a term paper...students love that they can write something that doesn't just get read by me. Here's what we accomplished:

@DrLimnology @biogeobob @FLBSUM @umontana Indeed! Cheers Bob!

Congratulations to @biogeobob ! Let's raise a glass of well-brewed lager. We are very proud of him here @FLBSUM and @umontana .

@DrLimnology Apparently Iowa’s reps have done the math and decided that ag is more important than lakes. They’re probably right on that but lakes are the tip of the iceberg wrt water quality. They may not be pleased that they may have to buy clean water from MN.

This was quite a juxtaposition.

@DrTimmyND Dogs are the worst!

The dog kennel this evening. #SignsOfTheApocalypse

@bobsterner Thanks for this Bob. A trip down memory lane has never been so insightful!

Retirement is coming. I gave my last class lecture today. Gave my first one in 1988, 35 years ago. Today was General Ecology and the topic was Global Ecology. I chose to look at how the Earth has changed since I first started lecturing. A series of Tweets --

@bobsterner @DrLimnology @aslo_org Aw shucks! You can submit an abstract NOW! Join the fun and celebrate all things Bob!

I'm grateful to my friends @DrLimnology and @jbcotner for organizing a Tribute Session on my behalf at the upcoming @aslo_org meeting in June in Madison. What a way to go out. My advice to anyone is to find yourself some smart and generous colleagues. You won't be sorry!

@DrLimnology @evornithology I successfully made it so EEBmajors only need one semester if they take biogeochemistry instead…way more relevant to their lives

@evornithology Back in the day I helped 2 of my friends get through o-chem. One is a successful dentist - the other a prominent general surgeon. Both say they wouldn’t have made it. Neither has ever used o-chem in their practice or even in their further training. Yes: Why do we do this?Still!

@lesleyknoll @NicoleMHayes @HMS_Beagles @aslo_org @DrCloern Nice!

@lesleyknoll I'll dive for you (unless, of course, it's Acton Lake--I ain't diving in that mess!;-)

A major climate disaster every 3 weeks and half of our country wants to keep their heads in the sand and pretend it's the 1950's.... nature.com/articles/d4158…

@billarnold_mn Whew--dunno what's in the water over on the MPLS campus, but this doesn't sound like 'fun' in St Paul!: Preoxidation Effectively Destroys N-Nitrosodimethylamine Precursors

fun paper with @HozalskiRay available for next 30 days

@billarnold_mn @NSF @mj_wilkins very well done and cool!

Check out the video about the Prairie Potholes and our research funded by @NSF ! youtube.com/watch?v=use7Gg… @ProfessorToner @mj_wilkins Thanks to Ben Hemmings and Jon Cox!

We know that Limnology is a highly integrative and interdisciplinary science. Do you miss any area? Write it down in the comments below! #SIL #Limnology #Limnologia #SILCONGRESS #SIL2024

A layered lake is a little like Earth’s early oceans − and lets researchers explore how oxygen built up in our atmosphere billions of years ago theconversation.com/a-layered-lake…

@RebeccaNorth2 Congrats and very well deserved!

@blauwalg I’m pretty sure my pattern of NOT drinking cyanos deliberately will hold despite the multitude of flavors here!

Fantastic to drink a thick green beer (Funky Fluid - Triple Gelato Verde), a delicious sour with cactus, mango, kiwi, and Spirulina as colouring agent. Never thought I would drink cyanobacteria deliberately 😉🍻
