Because I can't help myself re: schooling, I've started a post gradcertificate in Digital Health this week. There are some pretty cool people there.
An amazing feed tbh
😍 love these vampire 🦌
Attended via Zoom an amazing talk by @carlbergstrom.com on peer reviewing in academic journals. Thanks to Otago's public health department!
Watching Star Trek for academic purposes just might be the best way to spend a rainy day or three. Hot chocolate or tea is a must.
Finished earlier today: Book of the Unnamed Midwife by Ellison
Also working on Cunning Folk: Life in the Era of Practical Magic by Tabitha Stanmore
Oh, I am so excited to read this!
I'm completely fascinated by this
Hydropotes inermis
It is my favorite planet, tbh. Several of my favorite stories in the past couple months are set there.
THREAD: Viral misinformation on US capture of Nicolas Maduro - 4 January

Every day I'm glad I left Twitter

Ugh I am TIRED so hat should be hag
#SecretSantaAoNZ thank you.
The lobster card is ADORABLE and I love book recs. I am a salty sea hat, tyvm. The heartfelt ornament is already on the tree and I can't wait to taste the tea. I might use it to make tea soup (from a vegan Vietnamese cookbook I have).
Can I also send you something? It might take a little to arrive but...
For me, it's my mom's fudge. It's hard to get the right ingredients here. Also people don't like cranberry sauce much here.
Eggnog pancakes.
Pickles. Olives. Salmon. Tomatoes and anchovies. #SecretSantaAoNZ
I wrote this in a fugue state immediately after handing in my MFA and somehow it actually got published, so please enjoy this piece of flash fiction entitled: Bev Eats His Entire Wife
