How impressive to see the zoomorphic "Löwenmensch" figurine (Lion-man) with my own eyes in Ulm, Germany. A fascinating prehistoric mammuth-ivory sculpture from the Swabian Jura. 40.000 years old, upper paleolithic.

Our latest study on mechanistic aspects of an alternative mating tactic in a widow spider. Females are cannibalistic and male self-sacrificial. However matings also occur with females before their final moult to "maturity". Then males survive! 🧪🕷

Finally, I sent a cup to Friedrich Merz to fill his cupboard. It is like sending marbles to someone who has lost them. Background: he claimed that I and many others lost their marbles because we protested AGAINST the political shift to the right and FOR democracy. Let us see how he will perform.

Great Interview with Anne Appelbaum from 5 days ago. She must be shocked about the desaster in the oval Office.
