While struggling to write a conclusion, I got given some great advice. To 'free-write': 1) What have I learnt? 2) Why does it matter? 3) Who cares/should care? 4) What else could be done? I was surprised what my mind could do once not inhibited by a scary blank screen. #phdchat

Things don’t have to be perfect before you rest. Rest because there is yet work to do, and you need to be at your best to do it.

Did you ever discover something significant that you never got to publish? (because the student left or whatever) There should be a “Journal for Lost Observations” - You just say what you found and hope that someone picks it up.

So after deciding if you want to join any “professional” social media, another option is a website! There are some great free website builders out there, @carolyn_chlebek made an awesome Google Sheet that amasses PhD and postdoc websites, including how they’re made! Link in reply

Sea otters are equipped with a "pocket" under each arm, a handy storage pouch where they keep tools or some snacks. Here, Yaku pulls some clams out of his pocket!
