ATTN: The city of #CambMa has never had any space savers *and* they will be collected and disposed of starting Monday. #DoubleSpeak
Different country, still cancer targeted ads from twitter. This time from a consumer perspective
Dear Twitter, what on earth do you think I do for a living? The correct answer is not this

You don't expect a two bedroom flat next to a Chinese takeaway on Hornsey Road to have its own swimming pool, which just shows a lack of imagination on your part. rightmove.co.uk/properties/1…

Very tired of the gaslighting takes that insinuate that the fear/anxiety over COVID is worse than actual COVID.

You heard it here first: @slumsofharvard is leaving the people‘s republic of Cambridge this winter. My new hometown will be so shocking that I’m going to wait for the big reveal.

Okay, I’ve teased this far to long. SlumsofHarvard is moving from Cambridge, MA to…. Cambridge GB This month!

This is something that I have been working towards for over a decade and I’m really excited about it, but also feel overwhelmed.

I think we have exceeded science by preprint and press release and now have science by tweet with Omicron lol

Every year around now, I start to see grad students on twitter bemoan that they’re going home for the holidays to a family that doesn’t understand their research, or what they do in general, and it breaks my heart.

The Holidays are beautiful and wonderful, but I know for a lot of people they can be really hard & sometimes sad. Reach out to friends and family & check in on how they’re doing. So many are continuing to deal with so much this year. 🎄✨

Not all opinions are equally valid when it comes to scientific expertise.

What did this tree do to end up in time out? Or are holiday trees concerned about social distancing ?@TreeFountain

FAQ: Q: What’s a Faraday pouch? A: Read the thread Q: Do I need one? A: Probably not. Read the thread. Q: Why not just turn your phone off? A: Read the thread. Q: Are you a paranoid nutcase? A: Read the thread. It won’t answer this, but it will give you something to read.
Content warning: Nerdy thread ahead. I redid my informal tests of various cellphone-sized Faraday pouches, to measure the amount of attenuation they actually provide. Tl;dr: the expensive commercial ones generally work well. Cheap makeshift ones generally don’t.

Another year, even more wondering as to why I receive targeted twitter advertising specifically for oncologists.
Actual footage of me realizing that it is holiday trees posting on Twitter season. #TreesOfTwitter
Feeling all the feels as I prepare to make the big move to my new country. It simultaneously is coming too soon and not fast enough. What will I do if I can’t kvetch about the quirky aspects of #CambridgeMa ?
