They're definitely on their way to a party.

I am deeply saddened to share that a former member of my lab in Chicago, Lynika Strozier, died yesterday from #COVID19 complications. Lynika was an amazing person with a passion for science & education. Please give to her GoFundMe for funeral expenses https://t.co/PLNQoPtpf5

This sucks. A giant SciComm outlet must have liked my title enough to be VERY INSPIRED by it. Then they cover the same research my video summarized by RECREATING our key visual and using the same stock footage to boot! Mention our video? No. Link? No. Proper citation? No.
#TheLionKing, a tragic tale of bottom-up ecosystem collapse caused by the introduction of non-native leafcutter ants, overshadowed by a side plot about a pride of superstitious lions who blame the whole ordeal on hyenas.
How do I know #citizenscience works? Today we are talking about relationships among organisms and a student says Ms. P there r 2 ant species working together to benefit each other so that would be mutualism. My students now ❤ ants. @MagSorger
