I get paid to warp young minds. In my spare time (HAHAHA), I am consuming stories (books, movies, series, graphic novels, games) or writing them. Sci-Fi and Shakespeare nerd. #LoveIsLove #OwlsAreAwesome

I just went on a follow-fest for women with a PhD, but realized I'm already mutuals with almost everyone who shows up in the limited search results 😋

If you're a Dr. Gal or other female science communicator type, pop into the thread, say hi!

I'd love to learn about what you do 💜
(and I'm sure lots of others would too)

@alice Okay. Not a PhD, and in fact, my degree isn’t in science, either. However, all I know about science I learned on my own, and I teach science to middle school students and Biology to high schoolers. I am proud of the fact that I also teach English, History, Psychology, Drama, and Life Skills because it gives me a chance to show my students that science is for everyone.

    @Natasha_Jay I have to ask - what shade of red is that lipstick? It is amazing! 😊

    @Natasha_Jay Ooooo! Thank you! I will see if I can locate some. I have a pale-ish, pink-ish complexion, and reds with a blue undertone look better on me than others. That looks perfect. 😊

    Do prokaryotic cells look down on eukaryotes for being codependent?

    This is a shot in the dark, but I'm looking for an audiobook on the history and archaeology of Troy/Hisarlik, preferably reflecting more recent academic work than 2011 (the date of the work I've just been listening to). I'm interested in a work by an academic who really knows what they're talking about, not popular history with unexamined bias.

    It's OK if it's situated within a broader history of Ancient Anatolia or similar, as long as it covers Troy in detail. Any recs? @bookstodon

    @Rhube @bookstodon I have heard good things about the book Troy: Myth, City, Icon by [first name] Mac Sweeney from around 2018, but I don’t know if there’s an audiobook. The Discovery of Troy by Jones (I think) is more recent. 2020, maybe? But again, I don’t think there’s an audio version. One of our history teachers is way more into ancient history than the rest of us; I’ll ask him on Monday. 😊
