WHOA! Excited that Mamdani is paying attention to our recent study about judicial background!!! #LawSky gothamist.com/news/as-mamd...

Some early coverage of the #IceOutofSanDiego protest this morning. Looking for more when it comes out! www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/i...

I made it to my final continent! Happy 2026 everyone.

since there are only 7 Clay Millennium Prize Problems (one of which has already been solved) ... this must be paradigm-shifting work, excited to see AI naysayers proved wrong!!

I hit some foster milestones with the San Diego Humane Society!

Students who take AP Statistics are 3x more likely to be able to tell the difference between correlation and causation.

Happy thanksgiving #mathsky! I’m thankful for this community. Drop pics of food you made that you’re proud of here! I’ll start: caramelized onion Boursin mashed potatoes with a sliced potato crust

"There's no such thing as an academic emergency," I repeat to myself as I send yet another email apologizing for a delay and then wipe coffee off of my students' work.

Spilled coffee all over my students quizzes...is this semester over yet?

ICE spotted less than a mile away. All of campus is on edge. I hate this timeline we’re in.

Look I get publishing a broad spectrum of opinions but I already fed them this morning

This election day I am feeling...hopeful? Excited about Prop 50, excited about Zohran...get out there and vote if you are eligible!!!

Maisy was brought in as a stray, severely underweight with skin infections. She was lactating when the Humane Society found her, but they were unable to locate her puppies. This poor girl has been through hell, but she is still so incredibly sweet and loving. Looking forward to letting her heal.

Hello welcome to bluesky. We have every kind of anti-government radical left of center, and also, baseball

So it begins! Just saw a social media post “making my cat a Saja boys hat for Halloween!” I’m exhausted.

One AWS outage and half the internet disappears. Maybe handing the web to a handful of giant corporations wasn’t such a great idea.

We are hiring! We are looking for a new member to join our department with research experience in math education. You can apply on MathJobs: www.mathjobs.org/jobs/list/27...

Hey so I’ll be filling out a complaint form to report a Hatch Act violation if anyone wants to join me.

The students are wearing JNCOs. Everything old is new again.

ARE YOU READY FOR FAT BEAR WEEK 🐻

Happy Autumnal Equinox! 🍂🍁 I turned on the Halloween lights on my house and am listening to the Practical Magic soundtrack. Yesterday I baked a garden focaccia.

Lego Rivendell is complete

Don’t worry, I didn’t cut them myself. My friend did. 🤗

"that's not funny, no one should lose their lives to gun violence" so true! that's what we've been saying all along. I'm so glad you agree

Tell me it’s a bad idea to cut my own bangs.

Man it has been an insane couple of weeks. Tenure file due, start of the semester, paper revisions due, and sabbatical application due all within less than three weeks. But it’s all done and I was able to celebrate by biking to the farmers market!

Why is there another S in the spelling bee

Girlfriend got me the Lego Rivendell set for my birthday and I am incredibly lucky. Phase 1 is complete!

Trapped at home waiting for a package that I need to sign for, where they keep pushing back the delivery window. At least I'm getting a lot done.

Super excited to announce that our NSF proposal on active learning methods in calculus (and specifically in my case, life science calculus) has been funded!! In these uncertain and somewhat devastating times for scientific funding (especially in sci ed) I'm super grateful for this opportunity

In an attempt to not let myself get distracted I installed an app that rewards me for not looking at my phone (courtesy of @hankgreen.bsky.social) but two factor authentication is FUCKING IT UP. Websites, stop making me look at my phone to log in!!!

Bit of a departure from my usual area but it was fun to work on this number theory project and I learned a ton!

THIS IS NOT A DRILL (context: I’m a swiftie)

We are hiring in Operations Research at @hmc.edu! If you or someone you know is on the job market, please consider applying: math.hmc.edu/tenure-track...

Does anyone else listen to that one song from Legally Blonde when they're hard at work at something and want to prove themselves and pretend they're in a movie montage or is that just me? Is my millennial showing?

Tenure file due in 1.5 weeks means I have taken (checks watch) 177 steps today.

My partner is moving in and I’m overwhelmed by STUFF. I wish there were more avenues to borrow things you need only occasionally. Like I was going through my stuff to get rid of and found my label maker. And I could get rid of it but maybe I’ll use it again. til then it’s just taking up space.

I accomplished the impossible. Two weeks ago I walked into an independent bookstore (shoutout Wellesley Books in Wellesley, MA) and bought two books. And then, get this. I read them both. Completely. Shortly after buying them. Please clap.

Me whenever anyone asks when school starts up again

me to myself: annotate your code you idiot.

Catching up on TdF…wow can’t believe Jaspar is out!!! Hoping he makes a smooth recovery.

“No Explosions” by Naomi Shihab Nye

How do folks feel about citing an arxiv preprint that does not seem to appear in a peer-reviewed journal yet? Is this a no-no?

Such a fun and beautiful day!

Tag yourself I’m sum-br zalues

Off to go teach a lesson to middle schoolers. Pray for me.

New York I am so happy for you!!!!

Thinking of my NYC friends today!!! Remember: don’t rank Cuomo!! I’m rooting for you all!!!

Is it just me or does Pride seem more muted this year

Pet peeve: when people say “at random” when they mean “according to a uniform distribution”.
