Florida has no shame. Imagine banning an entire field with a straight face.
But it sure makes UM, a private university, look good by comparison.

I do want to shout-out my fellow sociologists, who have collectively created a discipline so woke that not a single one of our introductory textbooks can make it past Florida's censors.
Great work everyone.

45 is the way to go. The prop nap is worth the prep… ish
The guidance for your first colonoscopy is now age 45 in the US! And earlier if you have any risk factors. Given the way the numbers are going these days I would not delay. I’m on a countdown to scheduling mine this summer….
Hello Bluesky user—are you, yes you, approaching 50?
Well, I have some bad news and some good news: you are at increased risk of dying a horrible painful death from colon cancer—BUT—there is something you can do to prevent it!
Yes, you should schedule your colonoscopy today!

A quick e-mail saying: "I don't have time, but try [A] or [B]" can speed up the review process by *weeks*. And it also helps the many junior scientists who need reviewing experience on their CVs, but struggle to get invited.

3) When you decline, suggest at least one other reviewer, preferably a junior scientist who tends to do a great job and is likely not on the radar of the editor.
