Ok, it's getting to be about a month out from the next F3# due dates. Students, when contacting a program officer about fit, send a draft of your specific aims page. Yes, the whole page. Context of your project is important. The elevator pitch in an email is less helpful.

Not even the weirdest thing this man has said about one of his kids.

Dude has never heard of William Henry Harrison.

I’m so sick of this stigma against shark mental health.

Younger scientists know this. It’s the older generation who think they can escape harm by staying out of the spotlight.

Happy 9th birthday to the Feigin Lab!

My grant can rot in hell.

What can I eat that will put me in a good mood?

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result. Anyway, about to submit another grant.

It sucks that Trump ruined America’s 250th birthday and now I’m going to have to live another 50 years for the 300th.

Party apps.

Still life with Sahlen’s, number 2.

Still life with Sahlen’s.

A couple of very serious watch bros.

This is literally what I’m voting for.

But to be fair, libraries aren’t currently giving away Squishmallows in their Happy Meals.

Me: RStudio isn’t working. IT: Do you have R installed? Me: 😳 I’ll call you back. 🫠

Periodic reminder that publishing papers is not the goal in and of itself. The paper is a mechanism for sharing what you have learned--sharing processes and outcomes that others should be aware of/should think about too. 1/3

Prayers for Ed Norton. Hope he gets the help he needs. 😜

I didn’t check era commons even once today. Does this represent growth? Or giving up and drowning in the human version of the forced swim test?

This is some cool TV news.

Good luck to my grant, which will either be discussed, not discussed, or something in the middle, today.

“Baruch, atah, I’m high.”

As a recent Sabres bandwagon person, I’m gonna need someone to tell me how to feel about the Tuch news.

IMO this is perfect summary of QED 1%. I’m between 2 and 3. Boiling science down to a “score” is something I wholeheartedly disagree with.

Just reaffirmed that I’m not among the 1%, monetarily and scientifically.

Anyone know if you can change the title of an R01 resubmission?

Don’t know how he can keep party leadership after this. The people have spoken. Time to find someone who actually represents us.

Seeing lots of lefties (complimentary) winning over establishment Dems in my area. Not a huge surprise, but nice to see.

Ah, the good old days of science twitter. Back when the bloggers ruled with an iron fist!

What would you say is the most important thing to bring to band rehearsal? If you said your instrument, you are not my daughter.

Today they started a TWO YEAR construction project that will make my commute a living hell. But I-190 will finally have streetlights, so that’s nice.

If I don’t even get an I Voted sticker, does it really count?

Colossal Biosciences is behind this. 😜

When the email starts, “Dear Mike, I don’t disagree with you…” you know you are in for a fight…

It’s study section week for my grant. I’ll be hiding under my desk if you need me.

Buffalo people, I need a restaurant recommendation for a big group, fancy-ish, kid friendly. Ilio’s would be ideal but was booked!

Just woke up from a two hour Father’s Day nap. Elite.

I hope we ordered enough Manito’s!

Finally checked out the Cheektowaga Country Club. Really fun spot with mini golf, arcade games, food/drinks with a 70’s vibe. Here’s K2 after his first hole in 1!

Explain your @: Ok, this is a funny story. It’s my name.

Hit up both Swan Street Diner and Pham’s Kitchen today. Two of the best, in or around Buffalo.

GOO…(replay)…OOOAAAALLL

The Australian men’s soccer team is the Socceroos? This country has to be stopped.

Just rewatched The Mask for the first time since it came out. Yikes.

This kid is now 15!!

I don’t want to say that someone in my family might have a squishmallow addiction, but we just ordered 8 Happy Meals at McDonalds.

Swap New Jersey or Florida for Rhode Island and we have a deal.

I think I’m ready to be a Dean. Fuck this working for a living shit.

Just gonna put my head down on my desk until someone slides a pizza under my door.
