You’ve always been kind to your pet. You buy it food. Good food, that is, with a lot of proteins. Food you’d almost be eating yourself, if it wasn’t for your pet.

Oops… Sorry. Interviews, paper writing, baby teething, family events, student exams, maybe fieldwork if I ever can. Don’t expect much in here for some time. Maybe I resume mid June, maybe later.

Sorry people I wasn’t really here in the internet recently. And posts were quite less about science bits but sock odds (at least there were sock options). I have a temporarily paper reading block. It does not help, you guess. I think this might have to do with being somewhat tired making up new projects [...]
