As kids, all of us in the neighborhood spent *every* summer morning doing exactly this. It was a blast, and one of my favorite childhood memories. We used cheap plastic Flexible Flier sleds that went about a thousand miles an hour. I had a good childhood…

I think I went to junior high school with that bandsaw.

This seems like a very risky way to get rid of vegetable matter….

It makes good business sense too.

Those business districts that removed parking for cars and replaced it with more pedestrian and bicycle friendly spaces, saw business *increase*.

These initiatives are all over the place, and distract from addressing numerous urgent needs.

This was the 2023 Guisachan Gathering at Guisachan Estate in Scotland, the birthplace of the Golden Retriever. 488 absolute angels came back to celebrate, with pure joy, zero drama, and nonstop zoomies. Heart full, every single one a very good dog.

My thoughts on Stephen A Smith potentially running for president are:

Could we please stop fucking electing celebrities and get back to the business of running the country with boring people who just want to do a good job.

Thanks

Was asked how to best recruit rotation PhD students that will ultimately join - meetings pre decision to rotate are πŸ”‘, what your lab is best equipped to teach-support in terms of research-training [also what you are willing to support that your lab doesn't do] - also what you can't support. 1/2

This is a real-time disaster in motion. The people responsible for the Colorado river watershed need to get their shit together. Immediately. If the people in place currently aren’t up to job, replace them with people who can. Also, this problem is not unique to the Colorado river…

Absolutely true. Crushing the mRNA industry in the USA also does enormous damage to the economy of the .US

Did my AP exams in grade 11 with what felt like 2 blowtorches on my back.

And if it is related to MS- have a much loved cousin in a chair due to bad MS. Anyone acting in any way to increase risk of that happening can burn

Thank you! This is such a great idea. It is hard to get our students instruction and serious practice in scientific writing from an early stage.

What a great idea! How do you select a topic that would fit a student group with wide-ranging interests within a broad field? (Like maybe neuroscience…?)

And another thing…. calling it β€œWeiner Goo” is also a crime.
