I’m glad to be a part of a department that values student experiences and input and takes our concerns seriously, and part of a cohort who support each other and share the work required to make things different instead of politely perpetuating bigotry.

[Kristin Jayd @SoSubtlyObvious]

Last week our department hosted a well known scientist who made a series of offensive, inappropriate statements in the required post-seminar student discussion. Today, a group of us met to discuss what response we wanted to make, what support we want from our faculty and chair...

Haven’t seen this on my twitter feed in a while, so just wanted to encourage scientists to try and use “community science” instead of “citizen science” as a more inclusive term for public participation in studies! #EntSoc21 #communityscience 🔬👩🏻‍🔬

I am adopting and implementing this interpretation of business days right now. 48 hours will now mean I can take 6 days to respond. I love this. (I know you’re saying the opposite, but I’m running with it.)

[Kristin Jayd @SoSubtlyObvious]

@ETielens @latlonglogan Too late

[Kristin Jayd @SoSubtlyObvious]

Woooh! Congratulations @taismattoso !

17 years underground, that's a long time! So, what are cicadas up to? Eating, says #GradStudent @SoSubtlyObvious, “[They] just don't move around a lot, but they are alive and eating, and [they] can move around to find just the right spot on the tree root." https://t.co/Pdw2N8P04s

@toomanywasps And even then my phone auto corrected it to make even less sense. I give up.

[Kristin Jayd @SoSubtlyObvious]

@toomanywasps I tried telling people that my name@is Kristin with two i’s. Instead of Kristen, I got Kristen.

[Kristin Jayd @SoSubtlyObvious]

@kmagnacca So when do you open your Etsy shop?

[Kristin Jayd @SoSubtlyObvious]

@entsocwash @CicadaScience This is a great talk!

[Kristin Jayd @SoSubtlyObvious]

@dr_firefly @SysEB_Entsoc @EntsocAmerica @EntCollNet @ColeopSoc I want one of those little jewelry boxes with a tiny rotating ballerina inside and replace the ballerina with this little beetle carousel.

[Kristin Jayd @SoSubtlyObvious]

@PrettiestFrog I don’t know what motivated me to bake a cake in my tiny toaster oven on this rainy afternoon, but please tell your neighbor that I read this while it baked. Cheers to cakes and compassion.
