It's my go-to shirt for conference presentations.

Old Navy missed a trick with this one. If they had used this fabric to make dresses *with" *pockets*, they would have made a million dollars (just from field biologists/primatologists alone).

Reminder for bioanths on the job market!

So good they named him twice.

This is both hysterical and very alarming

Had a great time at @fossilconference.bsky.social! It's good to check in occasionally to see what the psychologists are up to. Nice to see some good (and fun!) evolutionary social science being done, and to meet some new folks.

Here I am at the very end of #FOSSIL2025, getting ready to drive home.

My department at Tulane has a TT position for a bioanth ("specializing in the analysis of human skeletal remains"). Apps due by Oct 15.

Perhaps the one drawback to living in the same town as Jane and being her student is that I never got a card after she asked me to do my first review as a grad student! I feel cheated!

Jane Lancaster (1935-2025), a major figure in the development of human behavioral ecology, passed away yesterday. Jane was on my PhD committee and was always supportive of me and my work. She will be missed.

Looking forward to your book!

If it's the right decision, it's the right decision. Always better to realize that sooner rather than later.

Thanks! Yes, the first thing I did was look up a colleague who'd left Twitter, followed her and then scrolled through everyone she followed. A lot of familiar faces in there!

Thanks so much Barbara! This is very helpful.

Finally made the long-delayed leap over here from that other place. Any suggestions on who to follow, related to bioanth, family demography, human behavioral ecology, primatology, etc.?
