It's just amazing to me that our senators, @SenWhitehouse and @SenJackReed talk about caring about America's military but can't find the fortitude to call for resignations in light of the recent Nat Sec scandal. When will they meet the moment?

New tribe-level classification of Loricariidae by Jon Armbruster and myself now out in Neotropical Ichthyology. We also assign these two upper Orinoco endemic species, formerly in Pseudancistrus, to new genera and a new tribe.

I know everything is on fire, literally and existentially, but I'm really proud of this paper out today, led by Kristina Terpis, with some amazing collaborators. We expanded sampling in photosynthetic stramenopiles and show total plastid loss twice!

Man, I would like one year as Department Chair where the college and/or university is not facing some existential crisis, but this is not the year. Luckily everything at the national level should be chill....

LOL, the biases of your eukaryotic taxa of interest largely not even appearing on a list of taxonomic bias.

Warming seas threaten #coral-algal #symbiosis, & so reef #ecosystems. @Dr_Cnidariana @HolliePutnam &co show that #CoralLarvae alter nutrient metabolism by increasing N assimilation to maintain symbiotic relationships & survive thermal stress #PLOSBiology plos.io/4foh6lL

There's a massive racial gap in tickets from officer stops, but there is none for camera tickets. New evidence from the US.
What a chart. PNAS paper

Happy to share our last publication to evaluate
the diversity and ecology of the (mostly) uncultured MAST clades, an eclectic collection of very small unpigmented protists.

Memorable Halloween interaction: 5yo in a mix of older kids. Handing candy and she says “is this all you have?”. For some reason I say “I also have soup” and she says “I prefer soup”. ok so I get a can of soup and get back her mom is there and I explain and she was mortified.

Narcissists do not co-parent: they counter-parent. They do not care about the psychological damage they cause to their children, as they will blame all of that on you.

Another example of police defunding everyone else
As the City of LA goes broke, one of the many questions we get is:
"WHERE ARE OUR TAX DOLLARS GOING?" 🤔
The City just started a new fiscal year & if you want to know how the Mayor & a majority of City Council increased or decreased departments' operational budget, see below:

Ok, sorry, I deleted the EPSCoR GRFP post because my direct interpretation of the RFP was incorrect. EPSCoR institutions will need to apply for these funds and the first application deadline just passed at the start of the month. These awards will be coming soon.
