Don’t know what these are but happy to help a scientist #BurningMan2023
Odd urge to reach out to Burning Man attendees and ask for Black Rock Desert mud to culture polyextremoohililc black fungi and symbionts. If you’re there, and can ship a couple bottles of mud to Nebraska, let me know!!!

Fairness since I reposted the article (w/o reading it. I’m on vacation.)
Replying to @PNASNews
@PNASNews published an RCT titled "Unconditional Cash Transfers Reduce Homelessness." Quick take: The RCT found no discernible impact on any primary or secondary study outcome. The claimed effect on homelessness (an exploratory outcome) is unreliable due to sample loss >50%. 1/6

I'm beyond proud that our paper "Unconditional cash transfers reduce homelessness" is published at @PNASNews today! This is the most ambitious project I've ever done, and it truly took a village for the last 7 years 🥳❤️🧵 pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.22…

How can you possibly blame Joe Biden for this, other than if he hadn't won, Trump wouldn't have tried to illegally overturn the election.
The indictment is a scandal that shows Joe Biden has no business being president. The facts recited in the indictment are a scandal that shows Donald Trump has no business being president.
