Words matter. Here are some suggestions from @MrsForrest dealing with different ways that you can avoid labelling kids as "high" or "low". Thanks to @BerkleyEverett for pointing this out.

As far as I can tell, the longest chains of women mathematicians with women PhD students starts with Olga Ladyzhenskaya (there are 5 chains of length 4). If you know a longer one, tell me about it! Also I'm proud of the picture I made for this article.https://t.co/WiE2Xk2UBw pic.twitter.com/KTZ9wzYGcb— Evelyn Lamb (@evelynjlamb) August 12, 2019
I like this dynamic tessellation from @MathHombre. It reminds me of this one that I did in Desmos and WebSketchpad.

Wow, make sure you check out all of the comments for the different dynamic versions of this.#TriangleSurprise! When we build equilateral triangles off 2 sides of ANY TRIANGLE, another equilateral triangle surprisingly emerges! 😮 Why does this occur? 🤔Source: @gogeometry.

Some cool cross sections of a cube. And if you want the high res Illustrator version, check out the comments and below is the dynamic "water" version from @shonkLove this little gem from Lill, 1867. (Google "Lill's method" to see a slew of materials on a curious geometric approach to solving polynomial eqns. But can you first see on your own how each slope here satisfies am^2 - bm + c = 0?) pic.twitter.com/PtqLwHLTax— James Tanton (@jamestanton) August 13, 2019
