I just learned that if a hermit crab finds a new shell that is too big it will wait for other hermit crabs who need new shells to gather and then they will organize themselves by size and trade shells and I am pissed that the crabs have a better housing market than we do

I have to be honest. The main reason why I'm doing a #PhD is because then when asked the question "Miss or Mrs?" I can respond "Dr, please".

Suicide is incredibly complicated. It's never caused by just 1 thing. Jumping to conclusions and blaming family members or others only adds to the pain of these losses. Please be nonjudgmental & supportive. You do NOT know a person's full story. #suicideloss

White supremacy is a belief system based on the idea that ppl of color, esp Black ppl, are fundamentally illegitimate as equal citizens or human beings.

Calling into question the citizenship of elected officials of color, esp when the answer is obvious, is one way it manifests.

Subtitles aren't just for deaf people. Lots of my hearing friends use them, too. If you're hearing and find yourself using subtitles on Netflix and TV and would quite like them at the cinema, please retweet to help normalise their presence! Big thanks #DeafAwarenessWeek

“If we’re serious about creating real-time interventions to stop ... an increase in suicide rates, we can’t have data that are 2 yrs old. We need to have federally funded, coordinated, not only data collection, but also data analysis,” said Singer.

From colleges to congress, the time for following and tolerating poor leaders who always default to what we CAN’T do has passed. Our situation now demands brave, innovators capable of figuring out what we CAN do. To BE better we need better LEADERSHIP with better VISIONS!

Like racism, just pretending a deadly pandemic is a hoax or isn’t so bad doesn’t make it go away. No no no. Foolishly ignoring such things actually makes them worse. America is a REALLY slow learner.
