#TardiGandalf is currently rooting for Stellar’s Sea Cow because they share the same sleek body type. #2026MMM

Me and #TardiGandalf are not great at puzzles, so we’ve been hanging out peeking at the answers and waiting for tomorrow’s #2026MMM divisions announcement

I DID THE THING I SAID I WOULD DO… #2026MMM

My daughter found this stuffed tardigrade in Target, the only one left. Clearly I will be making a Gandalf hat for him and me and #Tardigandalf will be rooting for our #2026MMM faves together!

When I was a teen, waiting each week for the new episode of TNG, hanging around the bookstore looking for a Trek paperback I hadn’t read, or poring over the TNG encyclopedia- I never dreamed that as an adult I would be living in the golden age of Trek with SO MUCH new content. It is GLORIOUS 🩷🖖🏻

This has a real #2025MMM vibe

My students asked me to weigh in on this debate and I said, “it would probably be like March Mammal Madness and the gorilla would leave the field of battle…”🤣 #2025MMM —>Gorillas have a big fight ahead of them, and it's not against 100 men, expert says one.npr.org/i/nx-s1-5382...

Seconding this 👏 #2025MMM

I have a good feeling that this may be the first year since I started playing in 2017 that I picked the champion 😬 #TeamPuma #2025MMM Either way I know it won’t be pretty…

My first college (Smith) had one of these outside the science building (I think) and I always wondered why you would plant one on purpose 🤣 #2025MMM

Ooh I like this idea. I’ve not seen that many in the wild but here’s my list: Puma Ginkgo Fungus Pelican Horseshoe crab Fern Skunk And I’ll count Cyanobacteria, but I’m just assuming it was around, it’s not like I carried a microscope on all my boat trips… 🤣 #2025MMM

Let’s goooooo #TeamPuma #2025MMM

#TeamInvert objects to this unnecessary carnage #2025MMM

Friday is not Fun in my classroom today, where I have to watch the horseshoe crab get defeated 4 times in the Rundown videos #2025MMM #TeamInvert

Now that I’ve had an hour to think it over, could we not have let the poor telson-less horseshoe crab go to decamp camp island in peace?! She had to get chomped?! 😭 #TeamInvert #2025MMM

RIP horseshoe crab #TeamInvert #2025MMM Here’s a little crab I raised from an egg when I was in the classroom program…🥹🥰

I’M READY WITH APPROPRIATE GIFS #2025MMM

Wow, the art for this division is particularly outstanding (and it’s always top-notch)! #2025MMM

Everyone with polar bear as their champion right now #2025MMM

I fell asleep during all the running away battles and I missed the figs! 😭 #2025MMM

Flashback to that time my friend and colleague chose this tag team to win her first MMM #2018MMM… she’s still kinda mad I let her pick it 🤣

Even though I have watched this 5 times (with all my classes), I am still cracking up at the “Water weasel!” “Tree weasel!” part. 😂 #2025MMM

This is not gonna help with all those people who think it normally wants to stab you with its tail, though #TeamInvert #2025MMM

IM READY WITH THE CHAIR THROWING GIFS #TeamInvert #2025MMM

Just today I was telling my students about some of the more egregious human interferences in past tournaments… 😬 #2025MMM

As you can see, this part of the #2025MMM bracket was especially difficult for this horseshoe crab, plant and fungi loving #TeamInvert member

A new tiny plant! How cool. Meet the 'wooly devil,' a new plant species discovered in Texas www.npr.org/2025/02/26/n...

First read of the #2025MMM bracket. My heart is with the horseshoe crab but can’t take another defeat. Will probably eventually throw in with #TeamNarwhal but for now I’m excited about the fungus among us! Before I became a teacher I was going to study spores molds and fungi like Egon.

Let's talk about James A. Harris, the co-discoverer of Rutherfordium and Dubnium, elements 104 & 105. He was the first African-American to be involved in the creation of a new element. Born Waco, TX in March 1932 BS in Chemistry at HBU Hutson-Tillotson College in Austin, TX.

DNA extraction day is the best day in #biology

After so many weather disruptions in January, it was nice and comforting to do a lab in Biology today.

I can’t stop laughing at this squirrel posing for my bird feeder camera today!

Feels like a good sign that the first 3 posts in my feed were pics of black cats. Higgins approves!

Had some fun with microscopes in Biology class today! #EduSky #iTeachScience

My co-worker suggested a timeline project for cell theory/germ theory, with the product being social media posts from the perspective of long-dead scientists. Love the usernames and creativity! #EduSky #Biology

I see the #2025MMM battle writing season is getting an early start… 🤣

Recently had the Learning Undefeated Mobile Exploration Lab at my school- thankful for the opportunity!
