I am extremely picky about Mexican food, having grown up in a Mexican restaurant. I almost never eat anything other than street tacos and nachos if I’m at one However, I LOVE Del Taco tacos 🌮 🌮 and bean & cheese burritos 🌯 🤷🏽♀️

Before we got a dog, absolutely no shoes inside. Now we take ours off but don’t ask our guests to. We also don’t have any carpet

On the day of Dr. Fauci's testimony, @nytimes.com decides to run a deeply unethical OpEd with snazzy graphics and snappy headlines about the Lab Leak.
The article itself contains multiple falsehoods and deep mischaracterizations.
Let's take every point in turn 👇🧵

Absolutely, although I am careful about who is being credited/discredited as my own harasser is a coauthor on one of my most important papers. Notably in that case I was able to prevent him from being senior author, but if it might harm a junior first author I might still cite the paper

"Crypto/NFTs but it raises money for the environment" is a bad idea. Crypto and NFTs use a ton of energy in a way that's terrible for the environment. The environment would be better if you would do something else instead of this.

Many years ago I made an email folder for things that made me feel particularly happy, warm, valued, or proud. But whenever I was in a dark place, it never really occurred to me to browse through this. Today was a good day, but on a whim I decided to open the folder up. Wow. Make one for yourself.

I bought mine because it was like $50 to rent $100 to buy. It is super cheap though (same material as the see through undergrad rayon, but with velvet stripes). I get self conscious about it when I stand next to colleagues with fancy ones.

Help! Are you using Wingspan in science education? I'm doing a talk at Origins billed as Using Games for Science Education. 😬 I want to talk about why Wingspan works as *passive* education -- but would also love to include stories about more explicit use as EDUCATION education, if there are any!

After our (non-controverisal "perspective" paper offering career advice) paper was accepted and after they sent us a publishing cost bill, the journal un-accepted it without explanation. I would urge my Canadian colleagues to be very careful in dealing with the journal FACETS in the future.
