@zoemig I'm not sure about adding them after - I think it just did it live while I was recording it, but there may be a way to edit them.

[Sterling Herron @FabaceaeFan16]

@zoemig PowerPoint worked well for me, and let me do subtitles and have a box with recorded video of you.

[Sterling Herron @FabaceaeFan16]

@zoemig I second not listening to the recording. I did this for a Botany talk and listened to every slide and eventually realized I would never be satisfied with how I said it 😂, so probably better to just treat it like you were just giving the talk live

Today in 1917, an explosion of white and police violence directed at East St. Louis' blacks left dozens dead and a nation horrified. A grand jury indicted 7 cops for murder, rioting, and conspiracy. The charges were dropped. The cops were fined $150. https://t.co/E3rWSs0nk9

An old shot from an expedition to Borneo early 2000s. This giant bean of the genus Entada was cut at a roadside. Unfortunately not edible

Somehow social distancing doesn’t seem so bad if I watch this on repeat.

Eating grasshoppers, crickets, and mealworms at seminar today. Pretty delish. Agriculture of the future? @SLUBiology @NACIA_org
