As a hobby artist who devotes waaay too many hours to an economically-unviable past-time, I have to take my victories where I can. So seeing my drawings in an exhibition and genuinely feeling that they belonged there (quality-wise) was a fantastic experience that I'll treasure for a long time.

Biologist folk (especially in evolutionary biology and/or ecology, but it don’t matter):

Can you give me your favorite examples of trade offs in biology? Organism or system don’t matter. Primary literature or reviews preferred.

A step in the right direction would be for @evoldir.bsky.social to stop posting adverts for non-salaried 'jobs'. They perpetuate unequal access to a research career (and by any normal definition they're anyway not a 'job'). journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...
