Here's what you can do in case you've accidentally closed your browser window that had a gazillion tabs open 1. Shut down laptop. You need rest. Go to sleep. Or 2. Open browser again. Press Ctrl+Shift+T. Voila! All your tabs are back. Now shut down laptop. Go to sleep.

Thanks so much!! I’m really glad you enjoyed it and am more than happy to answer any duckweed questions from your class if you’d like!! 🦆 🍃

@amandacniehaus super fun #evolution2021 talk! Inspired me to start writing down all my little thoughts to expand on them later, especially as an ADHDer who’s thoughts leave as soon as they come 😅

It IS racist when y’all recruit minoritized people to these ivory towers (for the optics) and then don’t create an environment for them to be successful (unless, of course, they keep the status quo). This IS white supremacy. It IS disgusting.

@DanielBolnick @mrebolleda @EvolEmpiricist @WangMiaoyan It was such a fun day, Dan and Maria, I can’t stop thinking about all the things we talked about! Thanks so much!

Maybe I’m wrong but it seems like the two white researchers who sat in their lab in Yale and wrote this seemed to have forgotten that indigenous knowledge exists? How are you going to talk about the Neotropics and not mention the humans who have been living there for 1000s of

@yusan_yang YES my favorite series, the cosmere makes me so happy!!!

In case anyone's curious it's the series with swearings like Talat's nails and Ash's eyes. Any fellow fans? 🤓

Reading a high fantasy novel with lots of in-world swearing and suddenly feel that it's such a missed opportunity that biologists don't swear by Darwin's Beard or some other random famous biologist body parts.

@sciencewithtyus Omg me when I had a consultation with a white therapist... I decided to look specifically for woc therapists after that but they be few and far between

My white therapist when I tried to discuss my fragmented racial identity in the middle of a session.

@austinrspence Thanks for the feedback Austin! There will be 200% more ducks in the next talk 😈

@mirixswan Bro this me and it always comes so inconveniently ugh

@SamApgar @uconneeb @Gracevaziri @LizMClifton 👀 I’m hype

Being able to sit and ponder for the sake of scientific inspiration within a career field is a privilege in itself. I think many of us forget that, a lot of people don’t have the luxury to wander in the spaces of their mind and dissect their perception of the world.

let kids believe in santa! you believe in the biological species concept

Not a single lie was told.
