They want to force us into a world where we empathise for a little monkey in a zoo, but disregard the well-being and fate of hundreds of thousands of tortured children…

He’s absolutely vile.
Duplicitous, fake, absolutely untrustworthy
“To not acknowledge the unique effect of a racial slur is a form of indifference to the suffering of others. The problem of being indifferent to the suffering of black folk while also imploring folks to have empathy for Davidson cannot be understated.” — @nubluesnick.bsky.social

America's Richest People Are Not its Most Generous
Fascinating chart with one outlier: Warren Buffett.
At the low end, giving 0.06% of one's wealth is equivalent to:
Net worth -> Lifetime Giving
50K->$30
100K->$60
500K->$300
$1M->$600
Most folks give far more by % in a *single year*.

Beautiful testimony that only marginally captures Mino’s wonderful spirit. Gone painfully too soon. You taught all of us who were lucky enough to get close to you many ways to be kinder and sensitive.
Rest in Power beautiful soul.

A 1600s painting portraying the deportation of brown people from Spain
Just visited #Alicante. There was this painting in a museum: the 1600s mass deportations of the “moriscos”… and the town organises dances and parties for the event. The suffering of one people, celebrated by the oppressors.
400 years ago. We never learn.
18 months dumped in prisons.
For having a conscience.
When is Justice coming to rectify this horrible, defaced world?

A collage of memories from shared experiences with Giulia Maiello
Academic paths are complex and exciting: it is a huge privilege to witness and steward so many of them, for a living. And when you’re so lucky to share part of one such journey with someone truly special, it’s a magical ride. Just like flying. Brava @giumaiello.bsky.social you deserve the best!

Four species of jellyfish used to extract environmental DNA
Maybe there’s no better “natural #eDNA sampler” than a sponge. But here we show why #jellyfish maybe also deserve some consideration:

Today, the world honors Martin Luther King Jr,,, and every day Public Enemy honors him.
We was touring with U2 and they respected our desire to boycott playing in Arizona since they wouldnt recognize MLK Day. We just walked off stage.

Everyone working in academia should read this and be prepared. We have a responsibility, towards the future generations, towards those whose voices and lives are being erased. Do not bow, do not hide.

This is a vital message.
I completely agree, and try hard to live by it. But I still find it so difficult. Little glimpses of joy, of very short duration, while the load of the world’s suffering weighs upon us like a lead cloud…
wikipedia turns 25 today! the last unenshittified major website! backbone of online info! triumph of humanity! powered by urge of unpaid randos to correct each other! somehow mostly reliable! "good thing wikipedia works in practice, because it sure doesn't work in theory" - old wiki adage

Really pleased for this guide to have been published as the first UKDNA-WG briefing note!
#DNA and #CitizenScience (/community science) leverages the collective power of volunteers to accelerate scientific discoveries and advance our understanding nature.
Huge thanks to all involved!
One more day to go!
Get your stuff tidy and submit!
Please no chatGPT for the motivation letter: we love natural intelligence not the artificial one!
