I've been explaining on a text thread to my rock climbing friends what the hell it is that we do, exactly, and how the changes happening now are gutting the US research enterprise. The other day one of them said "well why not just get a job in industry?" And I said "BECAUSE I FUCKING LOVE MY JOB"

Seems appropriate that my first bluesky post is my students winning some awards. Diego with his BPS SRAA poster award, and Sasiri just after she won our department's "Daicar-Bata" award for best paper for her work on the cteno project with @ibudin.bsky.social. Felicidades mis estudiantes increíbles!
