And of course, my champion punster daughter got me mums for mother's Day

My "American apology t-shirt" is going over well in Canada. At the WeCanReason conference in Calgary. Plus a chance to see the "Loons from Canada" from @The Skeptic Zone. Elbows up!

Late to report, but the Oakland Hands Off rally was terrific. Aeriel shot credit Brandon Harami -- I wish there was a reliable crowd estimate, but clearly thousands. Good signs, also.

1998, at the Univ of Tennessee's Darwin Day, with the late Will Provine, with whom I disagreed about a lot of things. But that shouldn't get in the way of getting along, right?

I so very much wish this is a real bumpersticker.

Yes I know this is maligning Neanderthals. I can deal with it. It's funny.

More pictures from the Stand up for Science rally m San Francisco. I'm terrible at estimating crowds, but a very satisfactory turn out, with everyone having fun. Some good signs as well. #standupforscience.bsky.social

You go, DC! We had a good turnout in San Francisco as well.

At the Stand up for Science demo in San Francisco. A very large crowd, and continuing to grow steadily.
