One of the crazy things about this case (for me at least) is that it doesn't strike me as extraordinary at all. There are so many people (esp. men) like this in Ecology.

I just don't get this. Who is teaching students to use the passive voice? Surely it can only be people who have never read any scientific journals. Can someone please explain?

The umpteenth request for being involved in a network of female scientists. We were unequivocal in our message: we don't need more networks, more stories, more free labour. We know what needs to happen. WE NEED THE REGULATIONS, MEASURES AND CONSTRUCTIONS TO BE PUT IN PLACE.

Been trying to figure out how to tweet this all day! Feeling so thankful to be in a place with colleagues who would nominate me for this!

Onnavolgbare column van de voorzitter van NWO. Rapporten over sociale veiligheid wijzen juist eerder op onderrapportage als probleem dan op overrapportage van grensoverschrijdend gedrag. Daarom kunnen onveilige situaties jaren doorsudderen, voorbeelden te over helaas.

@frantecol @quirkus44 @MarcelLevi @NWONieuws Levi's views also seem to oppose the efforts of @_knaw and @VSNUtweets to make Dutch academia a safer place. Very strange indeed.

A very, very strange op-ed of the director of the Dutch Science Foundation, in which he implies that people who feel unsafe at work don’t want to work hard, want a new office chair, or are just trying to get rid of a colleague.

Before the next election, you might want to find a better way to poll anyone under the age of 30 since they would rather pick up a pinless grenade than a call from an unknown number.

1/ I'm back to feeling excluded. Recently I got an invitation to an evening networking event that thought leaders in my professional field attend. I can't go. Because it's not local to me and I have no childcare arrangement for that evening. Not a big deal? Please hear me out..
