If our university system emails me about joining weight watchers one more time I’m going to blow my lid. Multiple times this week (open enrollment). It’s a) none of their business b) not a good program c) doesn’t even work d) could be wildly triggering to someone with disordered eating. (1/2)
Screen grab of email that says 'weight watchers take the first step toward prioritizing your well-being. Join WeightWatchers today at no cost to you as a USG active enrolled Anthem employee or spouse"

The company is less scientifically stimulating than in person, but the (occasional) collar jingling does remind me of the (constant) badge jingling #Evol2025

Ready to watch the SSE presidential address! Still under the weather so joining from my porch an hour and a half away, but planning to be back in action in Athens tomorrow. (I love the great care given to accessibility by the organizers)

Beautiful day in Atlanta for #StandUpForScience! I was lucky to be joined by my mom and my sign making assistant (kiddo) @standupforscience.bsky.social
