"What the report finds is that Biden held on to 94% of the people who said they would support him before the debate. For Trump, 86% of people who said they would support him before the debate said they would do so after the debate."

Today I discovered I have been extremely inefficient in sampling the alphabet with the my paper titles (p<10E-9). Future coauthors be warned: new paper titles will start with words like Justifying, Knob, Likelihood, Variation, X chromosome, Yearly, or Zea (how did I miss that one!?)

Damn. Now you’re making me reconsider. I usually carry a small case of my favorite chalk in my briefcase at work. Chalk in most conference and classrooms is terrible.

Visiting a colleague’s lab to teach a course. Resisted the urge to pack my own chalk out of concern they won’t have the good stuff.

I feel like I have a reputation for being all corn all the time but that’s simply not true. Check out for example this reserved space on the blackboard in the conference room.

I still find the naming offensive: On Dolly's name, Wilmut stated "Dolly is derived from a mammary gland cell and we couldn't think of a more impressive pair of glands than Dolly Parton's."

Yes. First, mobility isn’t a huge issue for being president. Does potus have to sprint places carrying heavy weights? Second specifically in this particular case to we have any actual evidence one candidate is in better health than the other?

Don't forget Alice's Day! Today in 1862, on a boat trip for a picnic, 10-year-old Alice Liddell asked Rev. Charles Dodgson (AKA, Lewis Carroll) to tell her and her sisters a story, which became Alice's Adventures Under Ground (1864) and Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865).

Explaining “rizz” to family members who didn’t know the term and managed to convince them “rizzosaurus” was a thing. I think it needs to be. Someone with rizz but too old to know what rizz means.
