@PFforPhDs I have been wondering the same thing! Thanks for your work in this area.

@HunterHammersen Thank you for this!

[Claire Plunkett @claire_math]

@HunterHammersen Thank you for all your work, kindness, and creativity! I finally purchased some patterns I had been thinking of for a while.

@chadtopaz I’ve never seen a conclusions slide that made me so interested in the prior talk!

@sbagleyspice The U of Utah student health center suggests Comprehensive Psychological Services as a place in the SLC area to go to get evaluated for ADHD. I went there for an autism evaluation and it was a surprisingly easy process.

@EverydayKnitter @KnitLynne Thank you for this affirmation! I was not very comfortable with thinking of my knitting as an art because I use yarn and patterns that other people designed, but indeed I am creating.

This needlefelted little owl by Victor Dubrovsky is one of the best things I’ve ever seen. It’s also me when I have Far Too Many Thoughts at once.

@vihartvihart Hi!!!

@GermanderCC I rarely see people wearing shawls but decided to wear them myself so I would have a reason to knit beautiful shawls! I like how they can be different shapes and can work with so many stitches and lace.

[Claire Plunkett @claire_math]

A fun and gorgeous knit! I loved the way the multicolor La Jolla yarn brought the purple and orange together, all bought at Hooked NJ.

@mykola Terraria! I prefer the initial freedom versus Starbound.

@claire_codes_ Hi Claire! I’m a math Claire who is also neurodivergent and loves running!

[Claire Plunkett @claire_math]

@divergentdawn I knit while listening to podcasts! Even then, I have to really enjoy the podcast to not get bored partway through.

For the first day of LGBT History Month, perhaps mathematicians should start to look at the talk page for Kolmogorov’s wiki where people fight to get any LGBT representation in math history established still. https://t.co/9zFAAziDIr

@defunct0r But I did not end up working with that professor because yikes.

[Claire Plunkett @claire_math]

@defunct0r I had a very uncomfortable conversation with a faculty member I was interested in working with, which including them telling me I needed to be more prepared with questions if I was interested in the program. I still got into the program and ended up choosing to go there!
