I went through 200g of coffee in 2 weeks. Does anyone know from where I can order good ground coffee in Brighton or will I have to cycle into town?

Every time I see divisive eugenics takes now, I think about how the Neanderthal museum highlights three times on the groundfloor that race is a social construct and that separating humans is dangerous. This text wall on "One Species, No Races"

When I first started working from home, Cookie (the family dog) would pet my keyboard to keep my attention. Now, she curls up next to me peacefully, but looks at me like this, if I dare to leave her for more than 1 hour.

Just some reading to prepare for research advancement, proposal writing, and hopefully some interviews.

Every time it gets more sales than usual, Amazon sends me an email saying I'd really like my own book and honestly, they're right.

If you also missed out on workshops and field trips, worry not. I'm getting to #PalAss24 Monday afternoon and I'm bringing Dinosaur magic the gathering commander decks.

If you are coming to #PalAss24, let's talk about the Archaean and about paelaeovirology! I might not be presenting, but I'm bringing bookmarks and stickers.

Absolutely love this. My favourite is Antennarius striatus. Sometimes it's just a weird little guy and sometimes it looks like an eldritch abomination and on top of that its endogenous virome is messed up

I'm going to need the NCBI genome site to be a little more cooperative when I try to download a lot of genomes

In Nature Comms, primary prevention should be a priority to minimize future pandemic risk. Healthy environments & animals = healthy humans. Ecological Countermeasures can do this
