To grab the tie or not to grab the tie, that is the question.

Oh wow, way nicer than that paper deserved!

I really want to see the instructor’s comments, but they appear to be missing from the article.

She doesn’t demonstrate a meaningful understanding of the paper, completely fails to critically engage with it, doesn’t provide sources, and, for being an upper division university student, appears to write at a middle school level. Zero points is harsh, but that isn’t a passing assignment!

We’d occasionally find them in the desert around our office complex southeast of Albuquerque.

Things like this remind me of how little I miss living in the Valley…

I mean, the original was a really confused story about a politician trying to insight a race war to seize power…

Sorry, I could have been a lot more artful in how I tried to make the joke. Or simply not have made it. I’m used to encountering agf as the thing TERFs accuse us of as an attempt to write us off.

To some extent he is a granitization advocate.

Yeah, this. It’s wild that I got accused of being a TERF for pointing that out.

How am I, a trans woman, a TERF for pointing out the Twitter handle for that post is an anti-trans term?

Alan Glazner is WAYYYY ahead of you on that one…

The user name says it all…

Or Favreau

The trans in sports thing is an area where better public education would probably push the needle a lot.

One of the scariest things I heard as a geologic consultant was an engineer asking a geologist to check their calculations. I went to make a joke about you including geography in the list, but I was absolutely a partisan in my firms ArcGIS-AutoCAD war.

Hence the ongoing debates over how melange zones in subduction complexes form. There are the computational models some favor, and then there is the rock record.

Field engineering is the best and worst all at the same time!

It was wild seeing businesses in working class areas of eastern Lakewood put up anti-MM signs. Imagine being proud enough of harming low income school children to brag about it in one of the poorest parts of town…
