KIM KITSURAGI - “*Sunrise, parabellum*,” the lieutenant says. He's in the middle of a freshly cleaned room, with the fan above his head like a halo. His face is covered in bruises.

Was a pleasure to join this year's #BayCEER Workshop to talk about burying beetles, social immunity & parental care and how all this might influence offspring immunity and their early development.
Watch out for a publication on this sooner than later 👀

Was so nice to present our research and @unibayreuth.bsky.social at this DZG meeting! Glad to be talking about parental care and how it interacts with offspring immunity 🎉
Expect our upcoming paper that deals with this cool topic!🪲 @max-evolbio.bsky.social and I had a blast working on it

Please enjoy our paper about how potential pathogens can affect burying beetle offspring - even to some surprising effects!
Was a pleasure to work with @max-evolbio.bsky.social and @steigerlab.bsky.social on my first paper as a #firstgen PhD student!

YOU - I am a detective.
INSULINDIAN PHASMID - So am I. I was born to detect sucrose rewards and semiochemicals. What were you born to detect?
YOU - I was born to detect you.

VOLITION - Subdue the regret. Dust yourself off, proceed. You'll get it in the next life, where you don't make mistakes. Do what you can with this one, while you're alive.

0.000% of Communism has been built. Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin. All he has managed to do is make himself *sad*. He is starting to suspect Kras Mazov *fucked him over* personally with his socio-economic theory.

ENCYCLOPEDIA - Your mangled brain would like you to know there is a boxer called Contact Mike.

ENCYCLOPEDIA - Nope.

SHIVERS - In a little alley next to Boogie street, a man in stained overalls steps out of a workshop for a cigarette. His hands are bruised and soaked with motor oil and dirt. He breathes smoke out of his nostrils and closes his eyes. The next five minutes are his and his alone.

VOLITION - Do it for the city. Go.
SHIVERS - Do it for the wind.

INSULINDIAN PHASMID - A nerve mirror of horrifying fidelity. Constant, never-ending damnation.
PAIN THRESHOLD - It would take a million years of evolution -- or a total reversal in the condition of the world -- for your pain to end.

KIM KITSURAGI - “I'm guessing that's when you were promoted to the rank of lieutenant double-yefreitor. A new badge usually comes with a new rank.”
ENDURANCE - The pain in your chest tells you you were working yourself to death to earn that rank.
