The pursuit of science and technology without roots in the arts, ethics, literature is a Faustian bargain, displaying an eagerness for knowledge uncoupled from wisdom, and the great myths have shown us the tragic end of such a pursuit.

@VeselkaBarbara So excited to be part of this team of cool people! I think it’s gonna be loads of fun for all involved :-)

Are you attending the #PPA2024? Make sure to sign up for our dental histology work shop, @plinythelady @VeselkaBarbara and @ChrisJDAris and I are super excited to have collaborated on this and make it available for in-person and hybrid attendees ☺️ 🦷🦷 docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

my trick to being happy is just to remember how strange and unlikely this world is. if the early universe had been just slightly different there would be no hydrogen, but now somehow I’m here and I get to drink coffee

@VeselkaBarbara @VeselkaBarbara btw I didn’t say that we found the first evidence of seasonal IGD! You are referenced in the actual article for that. I corrected the PLoS press release and they ignore it 😭

Ah yes. Gotta eat those vitamin D rich oranges! 😂

New publication drop. @Bones_and_Snow pulled some fascinating data out of the worlds worst preserved teeth! International Journal of Osteoarchaeology | Wiley Online Library onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/oa…

To be clear, the academic editor and reviewers were fine. Everything else has been a nightmare.

Lord almighty, this is the first and last manuscript I ever submit through @PLOSONE. Has anyone else had horrible production and editorial checks issues with them before?

Proud supervisor moment! Phoebe put so much time into her honours project. I'm having a panic attack just thinking about the number of fragments she processed! Phoebe is the sole rep of @otago bioanth at ASHB this year.

@geberj Oh dang. I didn’t even know I looked at Peruvian stuff. That’s some next level research skills right there!

I'm embracing my mad scientist era with this new publication. I cannot *believe* the reviewers and co-authors all let me keep this caption

Did you know that "Wilson's bands", histological markers of slowed enamel formation, were named after an @otago Dental School scientist? Great find @Bones_and_Snow!

@ancientchildren I have been allowed to get an exemption for one before but only if I could show there wasn’t a non-air BnB option in the vicinity.

@plinythelady You can use air bnbs 😃

Holy smokes - have any of you anthro types looked at the prices for the conference venue for AABA 2024 😱😱😱. Is all of LA like this??? My university won’t let me spend grant money on Air BnBs. Not sure how to swing this one..

Me, looking at something I’ve just written:

For each of the recent crises, NZGov has relied on experts. Experts who are largely trained &/or employed at Universities. Defunding Unis when health, climate, disasters, economics etc all face challenges is beyond comprehension. @nzlabour @NZNationalParty @NZGreens @Maori_Party
