Currently making two general audience/broad talks about my work and it is SO refreshing to take a step back and look holistically at my projects. I learn something new every time I undertake this exercise. 🥰

My favorite part of men/public transit is sitting warm thigh to warm thigh and shoulder to shoulder with a manspreader until they move. It’s so uncomfortable but god damn I deserve to sit normally in my SEAT. 😡

Perovskite vs. Stibnite is gonna be a tough match. :’(
Despite a strong and long early lead by #Rhodochrosite, #Perovskite started closing the gap in the last few hours to seal its #MinCup23 semifinal slot with 129 votes.
By IP addresses, we saw on-campus door-to-door campaigns. Nice hustle!

Interesting new paper out on crustal growth rates--a synthesis of detrital zircon data and whole rock compositions. Still lots of questions about cratonic keel assembly and freeboard formation, but a thought provoking contribution! www.geochemicalperspectivesletters.org/article2324/

I feel almost guilty for not voting for zircon, but, dioptase was my first favorite mineral ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It's the #MinCup23 QUARTER-FINALS!!
Can resilient timekeeper #Zircon outlast its competition, or will the striking beauty of #Dioptase make it a clear winner?

If in doubt wait. Give me a chance to convince you why #Perovskite is the best mineral in this match.
I have tenths, hundreds, thousands, infinity of arguments... as many as the combinations of elements that can be put into a #Perovskite structure.
Trust me. You won't regret it.

Oh look my favorite color!!!! I’m going to have a tough time voting here :’(
Winner of Beautiful v Gorgeous here goes up against #zircon in #MinCup23 quarterfinals. Very hard to pick as I like both #Dioptase and #Vivianite. I’m leaning towards lovely, green Dioptase early (all that & rhombohedral, too!), but willing to be convinced otherwise, as Vivianite brings the pretty.

my favorite part of riding a bike is that even though my bike is super fucked up, all the repairs/parts/labor combined are still <$200. With a car? Jesus, I’d probably have to buy a new car!
