I was in a meeting where the Dean said, as they’ve said before, “we’re going to have to do more with less” and I replied “or maybe we just do less with less” and the room got really quiet. I think about that sometimes.
I personally would not have posted this video. But as a widow myself, I give all the grace in the world to this grieving woman. Grief messes with you in profound ways, and I can’t imagine having to go through it under the circumstances she is in.
Folks focus on the lack of action of Democrats, but the utter spinelessness of Republicans is even more grotesque.
FYI - This is NOT rescinding the funding freeze, just rescinding the memo itself. The funding freeze is still in full effect. What a mess.
I need people to understand how difficult it is to get an NIH grant. You spend months writing a proposal, following strict guidelines that include a detailed multiyear budget, bios of everyone on your team, plans for participant safety & ethical conduct. Then you send it off -1/n
Cis-male faculty at Canadian Universities, have you ever called out sexism witnessed by colleagues in real time? Willing to share anecdotes about the context even if you can’t share names? Working on a story about gender equity for @UA_magazine. Please reach out and RT!
It’s wild to me that people think a gun would have made this situation better. It was scary, but nobody got hurt. If a gun was involved one of those two men, or both, might be dead. Real life isn’t a staged movie set.
Hear me out. Europe wants to stop buying oil from Russia. Canada wants to stop selling oil to the US. …
So, five years ago my husband died. This is what my teen (lovingly) got her new stepdad. 😂
Ok, except calling women’s ability to say no to men a “power dynamic difference” is peak incel.
My DMs talking about me being a quote on quote “incel”, not realising that we will have to sit down and talk about this power dynamic difference between men and women at some point. There is a valid conversation here to be had on why things are as they are and what the culprit is
*** Breast-reduction surgeries on children are almost entirely (97%) on non-trans males.*** But no outrage about all of those non-trans males who didn't want breasts. Because it isn't about 'saving our youth' from gender surgeries, it's about rage farming. hsph.harvard.edu/news/features/…
For the first time since WWII, every governing party facing election in a developed country this year lost vote share, via @jburnmurdoch 2024 Democrats are the red dot. Absolutely critical context to any postmortem.
Amazing work led by @JoshIsaacson and @matthewberg22!
@FlyBehaviour & team generated #Drosophila strains where tRNAs mistranslate serine at either valine or threonine codons. In #G3journal, explore how these mistranslations can have a negative or positive effect on lifespan depending on the sex of the fly: bit.ly/3A6q3ka
The uterus. Tight fit. Doesn't look like there's room for the government in there.
Speciation folks! Registration for the Gordon Conference on Speciation is now open. Held in Ventura, CA. Spread the word! grc.org/speciation-con…
New publication! While making proteins wrong is generally bad, in females it extends lifespan! Amazing work by @JoshIsaacson, @matthewberg22, Jessie Jagiello, Will Yeung, Brendan Charles, Judit Villen and Chris Brandl! academic.oup.com/g3journal/adva…
“I accept you without revisions”
Complete the sentence: In academia we don’t say ‘I love you’ we say ___________ and I think that’s beautiful.
This is what happens when you don’t think about the big picture of what makes the graph. Teen pregnancy declined by 18% from 2008-2010. The ‘decline in fertility’ is driven almost entirely by a decline in teen pregnancies. It’s not a bad thing.
Ok so obviously fertility rates declined sharply around 2009-2010. Some say it’s the recession but I doubt it. It’s the phones, and not in the “people are too busy scrolling to have sex” way. Read on.
These 1950’s dinner parties were women’s labor. Usually without acknowledgement of the extraordinary work involved. Nothing is stopping people from choosing to put in the work to do them if they wanted to. But what they want is women to do it and they just show up.
My parents belonged to a "Supper Club" for 50 years. Every month it was at one of the members home, they had dinner and drinks, and played bridge. My memory of it was from the back bedroom, even with the black and white TV on, I could hear raucous laughter and hilarity. I…
