I'm off Spotify because I don't like hearing ICE ads - Right now I've been listening to this album on Bandcamp. Classic folk/country in the Cherokee language. Really chill and lovely, one of my favorites - hortonrecords.bandcamp.com/album/nasgin...

Wiley's crummy new AI-driven submission platform is barely usable. It's pretty impressive to not have been able to improve on ScholarOne.

Here's a fascinating story which I want to dig into one day. Elias Lowe (né Loew) was born in 1879. A Lithuanian Jew, emigrated into NYC at 13. Became a well known palaeographer, worked at Oxford, Princeton. From 1934 - 1971, he published a collection of catalogued Latin manuscripts sourced (🧵)

I haven't responded yet because I'm busy breathlessly cherishing the moment but I received an email from a reader of my poetry chapbook last night that made me cry because it was so nice.😿💗

New post on the That's Life [Science] Blog about eating invasive species. Have you done it? What did you think? sci-stories.org/2025/09/29/c...
Can we eat our way out of biological invasions?
Eating invasive species might be one way to reduce their populations. Does it work?

I got my COVID and flu shots on Saturday. Very grateful to be living in MA where these vaccines are available and covered by insurance. But dang, this year's vaccines walloped me good! It was my first time having any kind of reaction. Feeling better now though.

Hesitant to ask, but any scientists who have used LLMs for analyzing & encoding text data? Particularly if you have qualms about how this tech is used/created/proliferating? Facing down this possibility for a project I would be first-authoring, and not sure how I feel about it. Feel free to PM!!

The Everlasting Self

Comes in from a downpour
Shaking water in every direction—
A collaborative condition:
Gathered, shed, spread, then
Forgotten, reabsorbed. Like love
From a lifetime ago, and mud
A dog has tracked across the floor.

You'll hear a lot about the "lag phase" and the "log phase" of biological invasions. But almost no one will tell you about the much scarier and weirder "hag phase" and following "hog phase".
