Mentally preparing for lab meeting on Monday, my labmate is a Chiefs fan, and mentor is an Eagles fan. As a Browns fan, it'll be my duty to keep the peace.

@charlesgaba.com is a hero and downloaded CDC’s entire website. A small group of us has come together to preserve this critical resource and make it accessible to the scientific community. More to come. These data are public and they are ours. Deletion disobedience is one way to fight back.

Listen, guys - is there a greenspace near your home? A public trail that you enjoy? Take a little bag with you next time and pick up some of the trash you see. It doesn't need to be everything. You can chip away at it. Just try to be the "someone else" who helps take care of the place.

it's such a breath of fresh air to still hear from @who.int about successes in eliminating parasitic diseases. Do y'all understand how difficult it is to achieve that, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa?! 🪅

Sitting in a stew of the worst writer's block I've ever experienced. 🫠 Inspiration, where are you?! Did I leave my writing electrons in the door frame of the last room I entered?!

Every now and then I take an abstract....an image of a feeling, if you will. I think everyone needs this feeling right now, just stare into this until you regain your balance. "Green Flow" 📷🌿
