The funny thing about getting older is you start wondering why you are the way you are...and after spending a week with your parents it all makes sense.

I've been telling people "happy Friday" since Monday. Work weeks after conferences that span weekends are hard 😅

If you want to rediscover your youth, join a book club and relive the young adult anxiety of having to finish a book on time or passably fake it in front of new friends.

Sending me "year in review" information on December 10th is just violence. Do you know how many goals I'm intending to hit between now and the end of the year 😅

Bless my colleagues for keeping a straight face during our conversations while these joyful critters played cornhole. #ASH24

It's not the jingle of Santa's sleigh bells, but thousands of heme folks rushing through the San Diego Convention Center's halls. #ASH24

Good morning #ASH24! I'm ready for some science...as soon as I finish this letter of recommendation and haul over to the Hyatt where my morning sessions are 😅

Oh, I'm seeing a really nice amount of #ASH24 skeets. So grateful to have a new vibrant place to engage with conference attendees and content!

I worry less about AI taking my job and more about how much of my job becomes 1) verifying AI-generated claims and 2) figuring out where the AI went wrong and fixing it.

I love December. The festive spirit, the cheesey movies, and the race to finish 2 months of year-end activities and planning for January events in a very short 3 weeks 🫠

Very excited to see the increasing number of #ASH24 posts! Looking forward to connecting with everyone in San Diego later this week.

I've always lived in places where school fundraisers focused on silent auctions and selling wrapping paper. I like this option better.

Good morning to everyone trying to decide precisely how invested they are in cooking Thanksgiving this year.

In retrospect, using my computer's desktop as a catch-all for projects in progress was a mistake.

A little belated, but huge congrats to @petrapopovics.bsky.social for her SBUR Young Investigator award, plus a neat talk on her labs work on BPH. I've enjoyed seeing this project develop!

It's wild how quickly I've progressed from reading printed scientific papers to consuming scientific literature largely on my phone.

Magda Grabowska @mmgrabow.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

This is also my approach to making friends 😅

I know there are some very clever ways to reconnect with folks I've previously followed in other places, but I'm really enjoying spontaneous and intentional rebuilding of my timeline.

I love everything about this sign.

Day 1 of my #inktober2024 project #CreativeCryptids is the dreaded Are You Done Yet-i. Terrifyingly annoying with all these questions about your productivity and whether you're making any progress. Sheesh. #sciart

Cartoon for #inktober2024 project #creativecryptids is The Are You Done Yet-i. A shaggy monster is asking "Are you finished with your thesis yet?" "What about that paper yet?" "OK. What HAVE you gotten done yet?"

I'm willing to forgive a lot in TV shows, but I cannot forgive inaccurate travel times or ecosystems.

Freezing fog the past couple of nights has led to the most spectacular ice crystals.

Barren branches of a bush are covered in spikey ice crystals, having the appearance of ice thorns.

People ask me what moving to Montana is like and honestly if you are cool with the absence of two day delivery in exchange for mountains and good coffee, you'll be fine here.

No amount of exposure seems to increase my tolerance for conference coffee. But I keep trying.

Years of writing grants has left me with excellent copy trimming skills. Alas, it has also created a goldfish approach to writing, where my copy grows to the exact word/character limit.
