Me: Don't you think it's so so SO weird we spend half our time bathing in the light of an actual flippin' star and the other half sheltering in the protective shadow of our own planet?

I think every proposal needs to discuss at lengths all the biases in their datasets. Use the word bias a lot. And mention the diversity in their sampling.

A student asked me not to judge a part of their work because they used ChatGPT for it.
I am at a total loss right now.

Kiddo went with me to AAPT and AAS last January thanks to their child-care grants! Still super grateful both societies do this.

"I can't seem to get my students to always listen me which is why I should just not tell them what they need to hear."

I'm super grateful I was able to go to both AAPT and AAS this winter and also very grateful to be back home. Thanks to everyone for giving such wonderful presentations! I wish I had been able to see more, but there was just so much to learn.
