Hi, new followers! I'm Dr. Jess, a kidney and pregnancy researcher in Portland, OR. Teacher, mama, musician, emcee. Pro-science, vax, LGBTQ, freedom of existing, kindness, and democracy. Antifascist, anti racist, anti anything that impedes the above. Glad to meet you. ❤️

San Diego residents or frequent visitors: I've been invited to an amazing workshop at the San Diego VA in June, but the nearest hotel is $310 a NIGHT. (It might actually be cheaper for me to fly roundtrip to PDX each evening, that's how crazy that is.) No nearby AirBNBs. Thoughts?

I heard the kid and @royalpdx.bsky.social get home from Costco. I poked my head out of the office to see if I could get some hugs, but they're outside zooming around and that does my heart just as good.

A friend just talked us through this, actually. If you have a local game store who might have some big dealers they trust, take some photos and make a list of what you have and get a couple contacts. Bulk offer is easier than individual sales, especially if you have any complete sets.

I'm having total crashout re-entry to the work week from vacation mode and no time to deal with it because there's too much to do. Any suggestions of how to handle it?

A glorious weekend. Got to witness my friend of 30 years get married to someone who loves her so completely in a beautiful area outside Vegas, then spent the weekend with friends of ours for more than 20 years. A lot of love and gratitude.

Sister: "At an estate sale, 4 tapestries of Colin Jost if you're interested"

There are 4 tapestries of JFK, a US President, but they do bear a striking resemblance to SNL actor and writer Colin Jost.

My friend is talking to her dad on the phone. "My friends from Portland are here! One of them is a doctor, a reproduction and kidney scientist." *pause* "SHE, actually."

I have a couple students taking the Physiology class I’m teaching for experience but no credit, or as one said to the rest of the class, “I’m here for the vibes.”

Already love this class. #scicomm

In science: explaining why this is all important to a greater mechanism, how, and convincing the people who have said "NAH" to it for twenty years

Small victory: when you realize you're about to go on a trip and you're almost out of your precious CC cream and nobody has it in stock but one store says "limited inventory" so you make an emergency run, have to dig through all their disorganized tubes, but BY JOVE THERE IS ONE IN YOUR SHADE
