I seem to have acquired a few new followers, so just to clarify – I care about cats, feelings, and making the culture at the intersection of academia and tech better for everyone (in that order). I care very little about details of programming languages.

I was evacuated from #Jasper while camping with my husband and two young kids this week. This is my #jasperwildfire story. We arrived at Wabasso campground Sunday afternoon. It was 34 degrees, and the man at the check in booth was sweating profusely in the heat. He (1/22)

An expansive musing thread on mask non-use, which I am now calling "mask akinesia".

Every class I teach, I walk in with my mask and my Aranet4 CO2 detector, to measure air quality. I'm lucky: the rooms I teach in are always below 800ppm and often below 700ppm.

[Colin Furness MISt PhD MPH @FurnessColin]

Mask akinesia is about being normal. Normal.

Normal is defined as what the herd does. It's not about what is right or good or safe or natural or just. It's ONLY about what everybody does.

Masking was never normal, even though everyone did do it for some time.

We don't know much about him, but here's a little thread about what we do…
