why are biologists like this
The Hoff Crab is neither a crab nor is it David Hasselhoff. It is a Yeti Crab, which is neither a Yeti nor a Crab but a sub-group of Squat Lobsters, which are not lobsters, they're Anomurans, like Mole Crabs, which are neither moles, nor crabs.

The first baby dairy cow isopods (calves, if you will) have been spotted. Well, they haven’t been spotted yet but their guts are visible through their bodies so they have been striped

After the second instance of someone pulling my shit from the garden and composting it (I was letting some radishes that bolted due to the heat go to seed ON PURPOSE!!!) I can see why people on Nextdoor are feral all the time. Sharing space with other people that you don’t know is infuriating

The beguiling voice of Laurie Anderson takes center stage in “You and Your Dog,” the final single from The New World (which will be released in full this Friday). It’s one of our favorite songs we’ve ever made.

Evidence for my “we are in 2004 again” theory- truck just drove by with an ad for “Man Cereal: Cereal Just Got Its Balls Back”

Also- I am ok! I even got a good grade in therapy for how I responded to this when it first became clear something was off. I was able to make some changes that are already helping physically. And people I <3 responded so well right away that I did not even have a chance to fall before I was caught

2/2 She doesn’t sugarcoat any of the often brutal reality but somehow approaches with a gentleness that has been a calming guide of sorts. It’s called “What to Carry, What to Burn” if you’ve not listened. Also a fan of the “You’re Wrong About” guest episodes
A little bit of an overshare, but I had a weird and scary med reaction that caused a lot of death/disaster-related intrusive thoughts and it’s been a strange comfort to listen to @blairbraverman.bsky.social tell survival stories on her podcast during this. 1/2

every mushroom foraging guidebook: This is Woodland Pot Roast, a tasty little mushroom that adds a delightful flavour to soups and stews. Note that it is often mistaken for Satan’s Fistula, a mushroom that erases the last 9 generations of your family from God’s ledgers.

"Why don't Americans-" The ruling class of America has intentionally disempowered its citizens spread across 3,000+ miles of land and then funded the police force as an occupying army that happily murders anyone who opposes them and imprisons whoever is left as slave laborers. So phone calls it is

"My patient is refusing a drug studied in 170,000 people because of side effects that a 124,000-person analysis just confirmed do not exist — while injecting a compound studied in 14 humans, from unregulated sources, based on the recommendation of someone who profits from selling it."
My patient would rather take a peptide than a statin. That reveals an uncomfortable truth in medicine
“The volume of evidence behind a therapy has become inversely correlated with public trust in it,” writes Vikas Patel.

I keep having to tell students that the true "product" on a homework, essay, or test is not the completed assignment, it's the brain that has gone through the thinking required to complete the assignment.

When you’re picking up a bottle of raspberry Riunite and a bag of vlasic pickle balls from 7/11 on the way home from work, the layer of dust that has accumulated on those things adds something to the experience

This. If you want people in your organization to behave as if they’re safe, you have to actually make them safe, not give them a Brené Brown book
I feel like when leaders at work encourage people to be themselves and be “vulnerable” and “courageous”, all they are doing is setting up people who are not white, not male, not from the same socioeconomic background as the majority, etc., to bring harm on themselves

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.
