I am very, very good at falling asleep for short periods

Just like baked beans

Dogs are not the only animals terrified by fireworks, and not sl of those animals live indoors.

No parent would willingly take their kid anywhere that they needed a bulletproof vest.

Some students, including Kat in our lab, had a QR code with contact details on their poster

Here's a thought. Maybe attendees should be discouraged from monopolising poster presenters' time! That way more people could discuss posters in the alloted time. There's nothing preventing further discussion later at the conference or via email

Not to mention that we have to give up our weekend!

It's already a very long day, and standing by a poster for 2+ hours is tiring enough!

Thanks to @morpho-kat.bsky.social for the action shot!
