RAs, Ana and Jessica, have joined the 2026 @wmsymposium.bsky.social! This one of the best online conferences around: lots of great discussion, thoughtful approaches to networking, and centering of early career scientists. Hope to see Ana present in the future as she starts grad school in the fall!
Walking to the polling place where I am serving as an election worker really makes government/politics feel local and personal. Knowing that my personal polling place is yet a .5 mile further makes government/politics feel completely illogical and confusing.
John Cavanaugh, I voted for you to do your job in Lincoln. For Congress, I’m voting for Denise Powell.
Denise Powell @deniseforcongress.bsky.social · 3mo agoMy opponent is spreading lies about me to distract from one very important thing: what happens if he leaves his seat in the legislature. These are Nebraska Democrats urging him to stay in his seat — because all of us fought so hard to protect the Blue Dot against every MAGA attempt to eliminate it.

If John Cavanaugh is elected to Congress, then MAGA republican Gov Pillan chooses Cavanaugh’s replacement in the Nebraska state unicameral. That seems like an ineffective way to “defend the 🔵” especially when we have other great congressional options in (my pick) Denise Powell and Crystal Rhoades
Today is the 2026 BTNRH Post Doc Research Symposium! This morning’s speakers shared their research with translational impacts on how we best support children with atypical hearing or language. These scholars are shining examples of why NIH’s T32 training grants are so important.
IT guy #1 (about my work laptop): you’re running an IP config? IT guy #2: oh, we’re deeper than that. *typity-type-clickity-clack* POINTS TO SCREEN ITG #2: *eyes get big* domain not detected. No wonder she can’t do anything I don’t know what any of this means but it seems bad.
One of our research SLPs is practicing a guest lecture on critically evaluating science (and pseudoscience) for a speech and hearing program. Looks like we are going to do an activity inspired by @lewan.bsky.social. It’s fun to have my two worlds collide.
Omaha showed up for today’s protest against the paramilitary occupation of Minneapolis and ICE’s executions of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. I’ve been to dozens of protests at 72nd and Dodge. I have never seen this many protesters and this level of overwhelming support from passing cars.
Ten years ago, he told us what he expected from his supporters. His as he predicted, he has committed crimes and they still voted for him. He continues to lead members at every level of his administration in criminal acts. When will we hold him accountable?
It’s tuna time! (We’ve operantly conditioned them to come to the kitchen when we whistle. It’s how we get Hal (L) to come home when his outdoor adventure is going longer than our schedules allow.)
Labeling pictures with words supports short-term memory more than relying on prior procedural learning. Early implanted children benefit from verbal recoding as much as their typically hearing peers. https://on.asha.org/3LT7m96 @memoryangela.bsky.social @sigperspectives.bsky.social

Purpose: Children with hearing loss show deficits in sequential learning, a form of procedural memory, and often perform poorly on verbal serial ...

#BB27 has enough social awareness to make OTEV Animal Farm meets the Godfather but can’t bring themselves to edit Riley as the groomer he is? This is what happens when the sociology major gets theory classes but no practical implementation.

When big brother is a living metaphor for American politics
Taran Armstrong@taranarmstrong.bsky.social · 12mo ago23 years ago, Marcellas' eviction served as a chilling warning to all future players that they should always use the veto. Zach now stands as a testament to the fact that the lessons of history are always doomed to be forgotten; that everybody thinks they are the exception. God save us all. #BB27
Waking up at 5:30 am to a severe thunderstorm with 80+ mph winds and was not exactly the most relaxing way to start the weekend. But @ketv7.bsky.social’s (all women) weather team, lead by @caitlinharveywx.bsky.social made for good company.
When your entire office can be seen from the hallway, you need a way to let your colleagues know that you are okay… the faraway look on your is because you are connecting with scientists all over the world at the @wmsymposium.bsky.social. Oh! And please do not disturb
Hal and his sister Hero came to live with us about a year ago after being with the same human for over a decade. Hal just dragged my sweatshirt to a box and made himself a little bed. I think this cat finally feels at home.
