Well. I think from now on I’m going to have a voice that says “If Senator Booker can talk like that in hour 24, I can probably call my representatives” or whatever action of the moment feels hard.

12/6/89: 14 women were killed because they dared to study the male-dominated field of engineering.
12/6/24: I told a student that working at my company is great because we are above industry average with 17% women! And I’ve only experienced a few microagressions! I was serious. (1/3)🧵
35 years ago today a gunman walked into an engineering classroom at the École Polytechnique in Montreal, separated the women from the men and killed 14 of them. It was the ultimate manifestation of the gender-based bias and violence we still face in STEM today. We must never forget. 👩🏻‍🔬 🧪

I want to highlight the scholarship for #WomeninSTEM returning to the workforce. I have never seen such a thing, and while it has stipulations I have Opinions on (a *one year* gap? Oh noooo) This is to be applauded (and more likely than the others to apply to people I know) bsky.app/profile/fran...

It seems pretty serious and academic in here. Can we post random stuff too? How do I want to enter this new space? I guess I’ll present my current proudest plants: a luscious aloe that is killing it, and a monstera that is becoming problematically monstrous. The photos do neither of them justice.
