I am starting my journey home after visiting the #USVI and the #BVI getting ready for #shark season 25' Last year, we tagged in the BVI 120 individual sharks (7 spp). Including this 12-foot female tiger shark that surfaced just a few miles east of where I was sleeping this morning! 🧪🦑🌊🌍🤿🦈🦠

Yesterday's announcement canceling MARC, PREP, IMSD & IRACDA finally broke me. Spent most of the morning in my office crying. I think I'd been clinging to a glimmer of hope, but as an IRACDA alum,watching the the scale of loss for young scientists was heartbreaking. 🧪 www.nytimes.com/2025/04/03/o...

A cardinal.... (sign of hope, renewal, and a message from loved ones who have passed away, or a reminder of their presence) just hit my window (a sign of impending change, a message from a deceased loved one, or a reminder to pay attention). Running with it as its a better all vibe than lately!

"On October 8, 1931, a law went into effect requiring every Italian university professor to sign an oath pledging their loyalty to the government of Benito Mussolini. Out of over 1,200 professors in the country, only 12 refused. All of them were immediately fired." www.chronicle.com/article/what...

You can't pretend we don't exist 🌈 and they have tried The assault on science is barbaric. Targeting of communities is deadly. canceling of ongoing work is expensive. #LGBTQ+ people are forced to be extra clever and aware. They then use that survival skill to enhance their #science #diversity 🦑🌍🌊🦈🧪
