@Erin_bee Ugh, I wish that weren't true. You win at the compassion and all the systems that would ask you to abandon it are in need of steamrolling. Also, many of the non-publications parts of your life are amazing. I think you prioritize excellently! ;D

@dr_hick Well deserved!!!!

[Dr Linnea Kuglitsch 🏛🗝️ @Archaesmallogy]

@Erin_bee I'm so sorry! You deserve better, Erin. It is so incredibly frustrating when folks with as much passion, talent, and -- most importantly -- compassion as yourself are treated this way. Sending so much love and support.

It was believed in medieval times that hedgehogs had spikes so they could roll over fruit to carry home to their children, which is not true but is a really cute idea

@bbakerzz It's the worst and you should say it!

George Mayerle's "international eye chart" (positive) ca. 1907.

Invented by an immigrant living in 20th-century San Fran, the chart was intended to allow anyone to do an eye test regardless of nationality.

Outcome aside, this bit of programming taught me an important lesson: do you know HOW FUN it is to walk around with a metal stick in each hand like a human metal detector? 12/10, would recommend.

Does this mean that dowsing is all myth and no matter? Not necessarily! But perhaps that matter has more to do with the instincts of the dowser and less to do with unseen forces (whether ‘spiritual’ or ‘scientific’) than some folks, past or present, believe!
