Even if there are no public records to track research transgressions, researchers are accountable to their fields which, thankfully, increasingly incl. Indigenous scholars & true allies. Calling out researchers is fraught, but we will call in for better, ethical research praxes.

Career update: I will finish my PhD soon! I am looking for work in data science/analyst/consulting positions, so please keep me in mind if you need someone with expertise in Bayesian multilevel modelling, data wrangling, visualization, or R stats education.

to parents of trans kids across the country, if i can recommend one thing to work on today (besides hugging your babies harder than ever) it's to start building a "safe folder"

If you are hiking in a group and waiting for slower people to catch up, don't start walking again when they do catch up, because then you got a rest and they didn't. I think about this tip a lot, in many different contexts.

In a recent viral thread, diet coach Anthony Gustin tried to argue that the Hadza foragers of Tanzania — “wild humans” in their “natural habitat” — had much to teach us about health. In Nautilus Magazine, I break down exactly what he got wrong (a lot). nautil.us/a-viral-twitte…

Thank you for such a strong response Dorsa Amir. The harm of talking about Indigenous peoples as “wild humans” is very real. Thank you for being a friend to Olanakwe Community Fund 💜

I’m somewhat loath to get so personal but I feel like I need to tell this story. My mother died in December 2020 with what I believed at the time to be $40k in student loan debt.
