I wrote a comprehensive guide for how gender allies can help trans people in these dark times. It’s organized by time commitment and level of experience with trans issues, so it should be accessible to anyone wanting to get involved.

If you're feeling pretty bored lately (who isn't?) and want some light (~400 pages) of reading on undergraduate STEM education, can I recommend this report from the National Academies?
Lots of things to think about here.

I really love free little websites with a single, useful tool - what are your favourites?
I use symbolsalad.com basically every week. It has a huge number of unicode symbols that you can copy, including Greek letters and absolutely loads of math symbols.

![A slide reading:
STATISTICAL MOLECULAR THERMODYNAMICS
Christopher J. Cramer
My name is […] and I am currently enrolled in Chem […] at […] and I stumbled across your lessons on thermodynamics. I was amazed at how wonderful a job you have done making these difficult subjects so accessible and easy to understand. You explain things so clearly and your lessons are extremely well structured. I just wanted to let you know how nice it is for someone to take the time to explain material instead of blowing through it and expect[ing a] student to retain it.
Thanks for taking the time and putting in the effort to allow students a better learning experience.

I’m having a great time at Augsburg! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience as a first-time instructor of record 👩🏻🏫
This Fall, Augsburg's Physics department has hired the amazing @kristineloh.bsky.social to teach our Science of Food and Cooking course. Kristine even contributed a brand new lab to our course on foams and vegan meringues. Thank you Kristine!

Just a quick note to those new here, if you think someone's post is worth other people reading, repost it. Liking it does not have the same effect here as on the dead-bird site. There is no algorithm. That's one of the reasons we like it.

I did some math in August & noticed that if we sell 5000 advent calendars, I can fund @skypeascientist.bsky.social 2025 without getting any grants. I wrote grants anyway, but I wanted some backup!
So far, 0 grants for 2025.
BUT!
We've sold 2,183 calendars!!
1/2 way funded!
