A three costume year this Halloween season! First up Sylvie from Loki, worn to the Oogie Boogie Halloween Party. Brought Sally back out for The Nightmare Before Christmas live concert, with a new 2021 appropriate matching face mask. Finally, an albacore tuna.

@the_cow_is_co Having attempted the same jump, can confirm. Otoliths are difficult! Especially if they are partially digested. I still have mine all confirmed by a second person.

One of my favorite sea shanty enthusiasts, @MiriamGoldste, on sea shanty past context and relevance for future ocean policy.

And you thought "Taking A Knee" was too much!?!

Those who continue to be “surprised” by unfolding events, including:

-Trump attempting coup
-GOP supporting him
-Growing white terrorism threat
-Black progressive mvmt in south being key to Dems winning

need to acknowledge their analysis is off & make room for new leadership

Not a question I’ve ever been asked, but given my research I’m glad someone has an answer! https://t.co/WyW64D3xB7

@amandadeibert Thank you!

If you are a woman with a Doctorate I would love to hear about your area of expertise and what it took for you to earn it.

Together, we will build a world where the accomplishments of our daughters will be celebrated, rather than diminished.

@CA_AstroComm PhD in Biological Oceanography. I study marine predator-prey relationships. Getting a doctoral degree is hard enough. We don’t need op-eds discouraging us from using titles we earned.

[Dr. Raven the Science Maven @ravenscimaven]

I'm not a medical doctor, but I'm getting a Ph.D. in science education. I'm an expert in teaching your doctor what they need to know to be a doctor. So yeah, you'll be calling me doctor. Have a seat.

[Dr Claudia Antolini 🌌🚀#BLM she/her 🐯 @CA_AstroComm]

Are you a woman with a doctorate? No matter your discipline, drop a picture here to show that we are here, we exist, and we won't drop our title for any mediocre man's comfort.

It’s gonna take awhile to get all our votes counted. I’m willing to wait...

This is bad. ICE just told students here on student visas that if their school is going online-only this fall, the students must depart the United States and cannot remain through the fall semester. https://t.co/8DteVzexLB

Extremely pleased by the news that #NASA HQ in Washington DC will be named after Mary W. Jackson, the first African American woman engineer at NASA! https://t.co/zuDXXgwm8G. #MaryJackson #hiddenfigures2020

I am on a journey to better articulate important issues. Today I found a phrase I've been needing for years: white normativity. It's what I was referring to when I critiqued the @ScienceNews piece about the role of the slave trade in western science
