@DrDanielGillis The uoguelph subreddit is filled with people who feel they've been mislead. https://t.co/N0ajmLMreU

me to admin: the metric you are using excludes the work of many making us feel unwelcome. Real leadership means being inclusive.

admin: we feel it is important to use the same poor metric as everyone else to allow comparison.

@scottbutner @covergirl53 do you like carbonation Scott? I indulged in a soda stream and drink way more water now as a result. I don't bother with any of the syrups or anything, I just like the fizz.

[Dr. J. @drjrmc]

@dr_gomez_lopez @OpenAcademics @AcademicChatter yes! (and)... it is ok to answer a question with "I don't know that" or "I hadn't considered that" as long as you also say "and this is how I will find out/explore that idea". You can't know everything.

[Dr. J. @drjrmc]

@DrDanielGillis All the hugs my friend! So sorry for your loss.

@shoshanahjacobs @glenpyle @Alex_Smith_Ants I know a vet office that has kittens that are just now the right size to go to homes. @shoshanahjacobs 😆

@AcademicChatter apply if the position feels right for you. Offer to draft a recommendation letter for your advisors to edit and submit. Last minute letters are really hard to write but if you offer to draft it for them they might be more willing.

@Eyz721 Science, or really any research, is not about the successes. It is about proving or disproving theories. Every so-called failure is a vital research step. Document them all. Embrace the data. Write papers about them. They are beautiful. Without failures we learn nothing

@RobertGReeve I love DMing but have to be selective about my players. I don't have fun if my players are rules lawyers who challenge every statement I make because they read the rule differently than I do (or because I chose to ignore that rule in my world) .

[Dr. J. @drjrmc]

@bhundey @Anda19 That makes sense as long as the functionality is the same. I think institutional culture is a big factor.

@AcademicChatter I have supervised many students with neurodivergence including autism. I can only support them properly when they disclose their needs. Student support services are crucial, definitely enrol with them.

@morecowbell11 @krismeloche @DFisman We could all campaign hard for the most popular splinter right-wing candidate in any Ford country ridings 😆

@WilliamCMurray @shoshanahjacobs As far as I can tell the main slogan of the "new blue" party is "FREEDUMB!!!!"

[Dr. J. @drjrmc]

first encounter with an active "new blue" supporter today. ugh.

[Dr. J. @drjrmc]

@shoshanahjacobs The encounter was with a person who I pay for a service that I use regularly (intentionally being vague to out no one). I think I need a new service provider.
