@mrfishtopher Definitely worth it if your kitties have any health conditions and as they get older. I use Lemonade and they are so fast and helpful and make stressful situations much easier https://t.co/MaShWE8QvE
@DrKillgrove I just finished my first Woobles kit and they’re wonderful. Unfortunately I haven’t found something as comprehensive for knitting. I’ve been working thru the Tin Can Knits blog & patterns and this book to build up skills https://t.co/AmQ6pIbPLR
@DrKillgrove If you have a yarn store in your town, they usually have learn to knit classes & can help you figure out what style of knitting will be most intuitive for you. I was baffled until I had a real person next to me showing me the ropes. Best of luck & enjoy!
@DrKillgrove A scarf is the perfect start! You don’t have to worry about gauge until you start making clothes. It’s just a way to see if you knit looser or tighter than the person who wrote the pattern. Then you adjust your needle size to compensate so your sweater comes out the right size 🙂
@DrKillgrove I learned to knit in December and just finished my first sweater. Flax by Tin Can Knits is a free, super simple, and well-written pattern, and there are a ton of tutorials for it on their website & YouTube https://t.co/0I1j4iYlJx

@robingnelson I feel you. We upset everyone by canceling Christmas plans because of omicron. My partner’s entire antivax family has since gotten COVID, including his 70 year old parents, who are self-medicating with ivermectin 🥴 I just can’t even. Sending hugs.
We got another workshop coming up this month with The Luminary Arts! We will explore witnessing & radical interviewing to ask "how can an interview become a site of care?" Sign up at the link below!

@TinaLasisi I’m so sorry that the people who you trusted to help compounded your trauma. Wishing you time & space to heal & trust yourself again—I know from experience how long a road it is. There are SO many folx who look up to you & are proud of all that you’ve already accomplished.
A profound loss. For science. For women in science. For women of color in science. For mothers in science. For her family, friends, colleagues, and students. For strangers like me who looked up to her. May Dr. Chaudhri have a beautiful journey to the ancestors.
The very same life backgrounds and experiences that are involved in diversifying the academy and widening the pipeline are the same backgrounds heavily associated w/ chronic disruptions. To not be accommodating to those needs is anti-inclusion, anti-diversity, and anti-belonging.
There will be students for whom something always comes up. Their research will get disrupted due to constant family and/or personal crises.
If you are a PI and you get exasperated with your student when chronic disruptions happens, you don't truly value diversity and inclusion.
