When I tell people I’m a lactation scientist, they usually say “What’s that?” or “That’s not real.”

You probably read the book. You need to listen to the audiobook.

Yep! There is no “lactation science track” yet so most people come into it from other fields like epidemiology, medicine, or molecular bio. We are working on making it an actual course of study so that students know it is an option!

Clarification: the lessons are 90 minutes TOTAL, or 5 chunks of 20 minutes.

@sarahmackattack.bsky.social Would this be something you’d be willing to include in your newsletter? We developed these lessons in collaboration with the team who developed this:

If you’d like to test drive these lessons, DM me or @meghanazad.bsky.social and we will send along the materials!

We’ve done everything for you. There’s a teacher guide, slide deck, and graphics. The lessons take about 90 minutes, and can be done all at once or in 5 chunks.

Same! Why are people so resistant to improving their quality of life?!

I don’t know where we’re headed from here. Maybe an intellectual dark age. Or perhaps—eventually—the world will finally tire of all the AI slop, the enshittification, and the anti-intellectualism, and some new intellectual and creative revolution will emerge from this technocratic dung heap.
