@DaviesswPhD I mean, maybe, but it’s not like some random person said they didn’t like your hair color. A mentor’s comments carries weight, especially when you are starting.

@DaviesswPhD Who the fuck told you that YOU would be a bad parent? Seriously?! That definitely doesn’t apply to the you I know and worked with.

@DaviesswPhD We’re supposed to give H’s school notice on how we are doing it - all virtual or hybrid (some time in small class, with masks, etc. other times virtual). I am losing my mind

@marynmck thank you for your interview with GPB re: COVID and the CDC. I worked on S. aureus in grad school and loved Superbug and now I’m at the CDC and am involved with COVID. This is an absolute nightmare.

@JeremyECrawford please help - if a night hag polymorphs into a humanoid per their ability, does a Paladin’s divine sense still see them as a fiend?

In the service of calling out institutional racism THE CONFEDERATE FLAG IS A FUCKING SYMBOL OF WHITE SUPREMACY. IT’S THE US EQUIVALENT OF THE SWASTIKA & HAS NO PLACE IN OUR SOCIETY. IT & ITS VARIANTS SHOULD BE BANNED FROM GOVT SIGNAGE. Looking at you, state flags &vanity plates.

@markowenmartin @ASMicrobiology @bacteriality @jaytlennon @TamayoLab @univpugetsound Rita and Jeff are absolute rockstars. Congrats to all!

Shout out to the person who told me I only got a perfect score on my F31 because it was the “minority grant so the bar is lower” who earlier this week posted a black square on Instagram.

@letourjeff D&D and microbiology together? Most excellent

So wild that the economy is tanking... Almost like the 1% don’t contribute much... Listen, you can’t do shit with a jigsaw puzzle with 1% of the pieces, but you can come damn close to completing the puzzle with 99% of the pieces... Just sayin’
