Now that I have a better idea of what I'm doing and the need for using tags, a re-#introduction.

I'm a #planetary and #environmental #geologist and currently a #postdoc at NAU.

My #research includes performing #fieldwork using #arctic, #subarctic, and #alpine #periglacial analogs to better understand the history of #ice on #Mars.

I'm also into #photography and the #weather.

I'm interested in re-connecting with folks in the #geoscience and #astronomy communities making the #TwitterMigration

It’s funny how different the mood is on the two apps.

Here, people are excited and curious, helping each other figure things out, making connections, offering advice, re-assembling communities & networks, and an overall optimism about non-corporate social media.

Back on birdapp, it’s a mix of gloom and doom combined with comments about how awful Mastodon is.

Maybe this will combust, implode, fail, and be forgotten. But I’m glad we’re here together, now. #TwitterMigration

Hey there I'm Sarah McAnulty!

I'm a squid biologist on a mission to bring joy to as many people as possible while learning about squid!

I drive the SquidMobile, host a squid facts hotline (text SQUID to 1-833-SCI-TEXT), & have a street art campaign celebrating these amazing animals!

Here's my brief #introduction

I'm currently part-time working towards a master's in #physics
I also have a part-time job in the #publicTransport sector.

In my spare time I get up to lots of different things that also change fairly frequently. Currently it's climbing, football ⚽️, cycling, running, watching TV (current series of Taskmaster and I'm a celeb), and spending too much time scrolling social media 😅

This morning I posted on Twitter some thoughts about how seriously we should regard the dismantling of that site. I’m re-posting my thoughts here in what I hope will be a thread (if those exist here!).

#Introduction Rural environmentalist at heart stuck in the city. I love playing and working outdoors, currently employed in environmental consulting (~6 years), formerly outdoor education. I often share photos of things I find outdoors while working or exploring. Super interested in herpetology and camera trapping. Keeper of a 🐢, 🐍, & 🐦. Other passions include board games, baking, travelling, making music, and hockey.

Excited to announce that I'm hiring two Postdocs in Climate Change Resilience, with a focus on heat, starting at as soon as January 1, 2023. Candidates with experience in climate change resilience research and an interest in heat research in geography, urban planning, public policy, public health, environmental sciences, or related fields are encouraged to apply. The posting will be up shortly, until then please DM or reply here for more information!

I guess an introduction is in order. I'm an analytical scientist by background and I'm currently Head of Research and Development at a Nano-tech company, in the UK.

I care a LOT about supporting the mental health of researchers in academia, industry and beyond. I recently wrote a book "Managing Your Mental Health During Your PhD: A Survival Guide" to try to support those who might be struggling.

I love gardening, I love animals, I love baking. I sometimes struggle to like myself. That's me.

Hello! 👋

I'm a Research Fellow in Physics at the University of Bristol, interested in the structure and properties of liquids, particularly under extreme high-pressure or temperature conditions, with applications in emerging energy technologies, industrial melt processing, volcanism, and planetary formation.

I care about improving equity and mental health in research and higher education.

Outside of work I have three daughters who keep me busy. I quite like the simple things in life.

Every Mastodon explanation is like "It's very simple, your account is part of a kerflunk, and each kerflunk can talk to each other as part of a bumblurt. At the moment everyone you flurgle can see your bloops but only people IN your kerflunk can quark your nerps. Kinda like email."

Here goes my #introduction !

🎓 I'm a material scientist, currently doing a PhD in #laser technologies at Delft University of Technology.

🖌️ In my free time I also work as freelance #3D artist, illustrator, and graphic designer for everything science-related (commissions always open at farlandgraphics.com/).

🐲 On the side, #dnd enthusiast and #coffee lover.

Can't wait to meet fellow scientist on this platform!

One of the greatest joys of Twitter in the early days was allowing you to discover weird and wonderful things…

So here is a Mastodon thread about one of the oddest things I have discovered in the past couple of years

Let me present you the weird world of Eiffel Tower Replicas

(You will have to be a little patient with the thread - as threads are not properly supported on Mastodon - so this is going to take a while to post!)

The whole story started during a COVID lockdown when I discovered an Eiffel Tower made of bed springs in my neighbourhood in Berlin

This is now known on Google Maps as the Tempelhofer Eiffelturm (it’s at Bergholzstrasse 11)

I guess it's time for an : Hi, I am an primarily doing , mostly for . www.somedonkey.work
If you don’t like probably don’t follow me :-)
I am interested in , and . Happy to discuss design and how to improve .
Unafraid of

I should probably add to this and then pin it as a proper introduction at some point.

I currently work as a scientific for a journal. My background is previously in , with an interest in , hidden curriculum elements and .

Prior to that, I completed a brief postdoc and PhD in which involved studying transition metal , enzymes via /MM and some side projects on electrochemistry and NHC - Au complexes.

I'm interested in , and on this side of things.
