Without a lab, access to research libraries/university facilities, entomologist Charles Henry Turner (1867–1923) died with a personal library of 1,000+ books, having published 50+ scientific papers; he revolutionized our knowledge of ants (Earth’s most abundant animal); he was 1st to prove insects can hear& distinguish pitch, alsi 1st scientist to achieve Pavlovian bug conditioning, training moths to beat their wings when he whistled #BlackHistoryIsHistory h/t @mariapopova

I was forgetting to mention, I'll go to @pycon for the first time this year (April 19-27). 🤓🐍

I'll give a talk: ⭐ Introducción a @FastAPI ⭐

Come and practice your Spanish with me. Or just come and say hi, I'm shy. 😅

Y si hablas español, chévere, guay, copado, buenazo! 😎

As a kid, I’d eat yeast and sit in the oven.

That’s just how I was raised.

Whoa, almost stepped on a cladonia city today - and a new species for me I believe, Cladonia verticillata. The pixies really went crazy when they built this one, I counted 5 stories in some of the buildings!

Most of my embroidery is intuitive in that I pick colors and sometimes a stitch and then I just let the threads talk to each other. If anyone speaks “thread,” I’d love a translation cuz these had something to say.

The experience of deja vu occurs when someone in the future who's reading your biography loses their place, and flips back a few pages to reread them.
