I currently feel like a parent with a child who is struggling...can’t take it away, can’t remove it...can just encourage and support and listen and be there. Education is a stressful profession, but so much more stressful right now than it has ever been.

Dear people putting together surveys sent out to researchers: please put some thought into including career types beyond the walls of the university. Curators, K-12 educators, lab techs, collections staff, non-profit staff, etc. Many still research/engage w/research!

If we're still online teaching next year we should go Full YouTuber & make videos like "English Teacher Reacts To Essays" and "Writing Lesson Plans ASMR" and "Join my Patreon For Exclusive Adding/Subtracting Mixed Numbers Content". "This lesson sponsored by RAID: Shadow Legends".

Sad. Discovery had a chance to do an epic dino show with huge buy in from the int'l community, showcasing a diverse range of wonderful (and largely early career) researchers. 1+ year of production, then no. Instead, a cowboy who can't get the name of his fake dinosaur correct.
The Dinosaur Cowboy has made another historic discovery -- the bones of a Nanotyrannosaur. Follow Clayton Phipps' journey along with other enterprising ranchers on new series #DinoHunters, premiering Friday, June 19th at 9P. Learn more: bit.ly/3gScJl7
