If you have zero cats and are thinking about changing that, I highly recommend adopting a bonded pair of adults! It's actually easier than just one adult cat b/c they keep each other engaged.

I may not be ✨from✨ anywhere, but I am ✨of✨ the heat and humidity 😂 🐠🌊

One of the great errors in fiction from past decades is that we always portrayed tech bro CEOs as geniuses when the truth is, most are dipshit bigots who got lucky or bankrolled by daddy. On their own merit, they fail every time.

the horrible feeling I have forgotten something important (checks phones, water bottle, clothing)

bus roulette on a rainy morning

In case anyone needs to hear this: the answer is that undocumented immigrants pay SS taxes but receive no benefits.

I’m probably supposed to be doing something else, but I’m making my World Cup study guide instead

workplace ergonomics, lol, is that still a thing? I work in science, so it’s common to just pretzel worker bodies around lab equipment and call it a Workspace

20 yrs after approval of HPV vaccine, one-third of Americans have never heard of the virus. Many are unaware that the virus causes more than 49,000 cancers a year, including tumors of the head and neck, cervix, vagina, vulva, penis, and anus. www.cidrap.umn.edu/human-papill...

NEW: U.S. Sen. Tim Sheehy, who previously ran a company that provides aircraft for fighting wildfires, has proposed ending Forest Service inspections of those aircraft. One of the company’s aircraft failed an inspection because of a crack in its wing.

My day job is at a rural branch of a public library, and we have a Pride display. Yesterday I was at the desk when a man came in. Fifties, maybe, or sixties.

every time I’m on a bus that hits that one pothole, I remember I need to go back and get a photo for MDSHA. and then I forget, until we hit that one pothole again 😬

I am a huge fan of complete sentences.

The HPV vaccine was approved 20 years ago this week. In a new series, CIDRAP News looks at what we've learned. In this story, we profile two sisters: Hailey was eligible for vaccination in 2006. Erica was not. 6 yrs later, Erica was diagnosed with cervical cancer. www.cidrap.umn.edu/human-papill...

I just returned from two back-to-back conferences. Students, I noticed that a lot of your slide decks had an oddly similar layout structure and I was able to confirm in conversations that these were AI-generated/assisted. Some thought about this for your own professional development: 🧵

My primary academic conference is in a few weeks. I have given a good number of conference presentations over the years, and possibly moderated even more often than I've presented. Advice for anyone who wants it, in a thread:
