Can I drag your attention to the artworks by contemporary Czech palaeoartist, Vladimir Rimbala. His works are a perfect mix of modern science and retro composition (🧵)

if you really want leadership to take you seriously on the primary front you've got to knock off some prominent figures - remember when Eric Cantor went down to Dave Brat?
this is going to be an uphill battle but I'm glad he's going for it

Finally came up with a composition to have a take on Giganotosaurus! The group behavior based on the remains of Mapusaurus seemingly showcasing that lifestyle. Otherwise, I always love reflections and unconventional approaches to showcasing well known animals! #paleoart #paleosky #giganotosaurus

Bsky hasn’t heard the story about the time that I was giving a virtual colloquium to the Aspen Center for Physics in September 2020 and Lawrence Krauss, Geoff Marcy, Christian Ott all attended as a group
ACP now has a policy that would prevent this from happening, because of that incident 🔭

I truly do not believe that most men, including "the good ones" understand how much of our careers get spent on this.

Imagine the things we could do with our time if we didn’t have to do this bsky.app/profile/chan...
I did my job. And then I did a job that never should have been my responsibility afterwards, sending emails and having meetings about how this was allowed to happen in the first place. Other women scholars had to spend their time explaining to Aspen leadership why this was not ok.

Literally just talked about this fact with my mama yesterday because none of her uncles or her father got theirs for their service.
Another excellent history on the racial wealth gap. Rights on paper, NOT in practice.
