@downdogapp I've tried emailing [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected]. None of these bounced back, but I also haven't gotten a response from any of them. I've also tried messaging on Facebook. I'm hoping that publicly calling attention to this will help.

Breaking my Twitter silence to offer a negative review of @downdogapp which has terrible customer service. You can't contact support unless you sign in. Since I have lost access to my account, I can't access the support I would need to regain access to the account

@RB_python_bot Hey there little bot!

I made a Mastodon! [email protected].

I was worried it was going to be quiet over here and I wouldn't be able to find any academics and makers to follow, yet somehow I keep ending up rate-limited and I have to wait before following new people!

@WomeninAIEthics @AnthroPunk I'm also unable to DM but I would greatly appreciate an invitation to the discord!

@weinberz Get a blazer that fits your shoulders and is long enough in the body. It will probably be baggy and unflattering if it fulfills both of these criteria.

Then, take it to a tailor. As long as it fits in the shoulders, it will be very inexpensive to get it tailored.

@bayesianboy If it's readable at the second-year STEM undergrad level, definitely yes

Every year I read a lot of grad school applications from accomplished people that don't give me the info I'm looking for. It feels like a major hidden curriculum thing. So here's (my opinion on) how to write a great Statement of Purpose/Research for a PhD program. 🧵 1/

@Ladeyoriju @kaitrouillard @AcademicChatter @PostdocVoice My rolly backpack contains these largish items:

Always
* Lunch + snacks
* Water bottle
* Umbrella
* Laptop
* Headset, mouse, charger for laptop

Sometimes
* A sweater
* A book or two

If I only used desktop computers and bought lunch I wouldn't need the bag, but I don't, so I do

@kaitrouillard @AcademicChatter @PostdocVoice I upgraded to a rolling backpack. 11/10 recommend
