We’re going to try to visit with immediate family this holiday. First time in 3 years.

Here’s what we’re doing:

- kids out of school and working from home a week early to isolate
- Enovid during the visit
- Corsi boxes… lots!
- testing
- bivalent boosted

All with privilege

This is so freaking good, all three segments. It provoked many thoughts, that I will probably share later when I have more time, but for now, I highly recommend that you give it a listen. https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/otm/episodes/on-the-media-good-ol-days

Hey Mastodon! Time for my #Introduction:

I'm a wildlife biologist living in #Whitehorse #Yukon. My focus is on monitoring, managing, and assessing the #CumulativeEffects of disturbance - particularly on #Caribou #GrizzlyBears & #moose. I live in, work on, and explore incredibly beautiful landscapes every day.

I love hiking, cross-country skiing and being outside summer or winter! I'm passionate about gardening, science, cooking, and dogs! Oh and I'm a #LivingLiverDonor.

Went snowshoeing along the Peter’s Kill in Minnewaska State Park, yesterday. We were virtually the only people there, very serene. Definitely a winter wonderland ❄️ Second year using my MSR Lightning Ascent snowshoes, still very lightweight with good traction: https://www.rei.com/product/160736/msr-lightning-ascent-snowshoes-mens

ALSO, I wrote a really cool popular science book about the stories behind bird migration research that comes out in March. If you preorder it and forward your confirmation to me (first name dot last name at gmail) I'll mail you a signed bookplate! #ornithology #birds #bookstodon

If you're trying to find journalists on Mastodon, I've created a verified database of several hundred here: http://presscheck.org. Since the backlog has become enormous, the unverified waiting list is now public also: http://presscheck.org/pending

Ugh, these new Twitter refugees are ruining the place for long-standing community members like me who have been here for ten days.

We need to put the economy on a war footing to tackle the climate crisis.

On Twitter this month, stats say mentions are holding steady even as impressions drop. Why? Because 80% of them look like this.

when working with ecological data, we often need to group the data based on a particular variable in R. An easy way to do this is using the function group_by() from 'dplyr' package. Check out our blog post to learn how!

Physicists clock the speed of light at 9,460,730,472,580.8 km/yr (fast!), yet light from the bright stars we see in #space still takes an extraordinarily long time to reach us.

NASA’s Webb telescope has provided a glimpse back more than 13 billion years in time, nearly to the beginning ✨
