I’m a Kansan working as an environmental microbiologist far from home.
One of these pipette tip boxes is from my bench, the other hurts me to even look at. #lablife #microbiology

I made some Misir Wot and not-really-but-close-to-injera for dinner tonight. My first time making Ethiopian food at home and it turned out delicious.

These two statements are bad enough on their own, but when said together they should be terrifying to everyone.

Send military into American streets as “practice” for waging war without any rules of engagement.

After watching Jason Mantzoukas break out a lock-picking set in a Taskmaster task, I started getting ads in my algorithm. I bit, bought a lock-picking set, and have now picked the only lock I own three times, and a practice lock twice. A fun new couch hobby has been found.

It just reminds me of The Office.

You gotta love working in just the end of the bsc because all your sample plates have to dry (0.5ml of sample spread on each plate takes a long time). #microbiology #science

I come from a rural family but like the idea of trying novel foods, this does not shock me.

I bet it still will serve as a good reference. It says simple or martial with light. The staff still lets you know that simple weapons without the light property work.

I had a great crowd come and listen to me talk about Harmful Algal Blooms this past Friday. The discussion turned my 45min talk into a 1hr and 40min talk.#ScienceOutreach #Biology #ScienceTalk #Algae #HarmfulAlgalBlooms

I recently got a Minolta Autocord LMX. Here are some of my first pictures using a TLR camera. It’s a lot of fun!#analogicphotography #minoltaautocord #tlrcamera

Last night I got to host a table about environmental field microscopy at a local high school’s community STEM and Discovery Night. There were evidently over a hundred exhibitors involved and I still felt like people were interested and engaged when they came to my table. #ScienceOutreach

Today I built this DIY field microscope using some readily available resources (the magnifying lens’s is the focal lens from laser pointer).

You can find directions to make your own here: https://onlineinnovationsjournal.com/streams/stem/23aad8ff0543ca25.html

A film that takes place where you’re from. (Not filmed there).

I managed to get out to a local Science on Tap event to give a talk on Harmful Algal Blooms.

I was pretty happy with this week’s Sunday morning biscuits. (I make them from scratch every Sunday).
