Some of my thoughts on academics close associations with child rapist Jeffrey Epstein

Just collecting some of my posts on this topic here:

When, if ever, will @DrMANowak and @harvard do something about their unethical association with rapist Jeffrey Epstein - they took his money, propped up his reputation, and now? crickets - read more from @xeni about this: https://t.co/deoSQ7HbT2

Over the last few days, I have spent some time digging into the sordid connections between rapist / pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and various groups at @harvard e.g., https://t.co/UAwjqbhh6t

Continuing my digging into the disturbing connections between Jeffrey Epstein & @harvard & how @harvard @DrMANowak & others simply ignored all the horrific actions of Epstein in exchange for money - see most recent thread here https://t.co/R9je09HNJ9

The "We Support Joi" page, as @xeni points out, is just spitting in the face those harmed by Jeffrey Epstein https://t.co/lyofd55jQy

The benefits of having a #traildesk #iNaturalist #Birds #BirdPhotography #Yolo

Yesterday I had seven meetings or interviews for work which were by phone and one which had to be in person.

So I decided to do the phone calls at what I call my "trail desk." That is, I do the call while out walking around and/or birding and/or at least doing something outdoors.  Sometimes I have to sit down and look at my phone to see someone's slides or google doc but most of the time I can do things just as well when walking.  And taking pictures every once in a while.

Basically I drove to a few different spots around the #DavisCA area that I like including the Davis Wetlands and Yolo Bypass and did calls from there. Here are some of the better pics I took during these calls.  I also posted a bunch of these and others to iNaturalist.  See here: https://www.inaturalist.org/calendar/phylogenomics/2019/8/16 (where you can find IDs for things and locations).
