The synthesis of empiricism and rationalism.

Did you mistakenly order the giant novelty checks they use when people win contests or charities receive huge donations?
I bet a book of those would be expensive to ship.

Ah yes, the annual Easter Egg Massacre!

I really wish there was a social media platform where the whole schtick was that you could only post and respond a limited number of times each day. As it is, the discourse is dominated by know-it-alls who feel the need to weigh in on absolutely everything no matter how unqualified they are.

Not with a bang, but Yakety Sax.

The 50501 Movement has planned protests at all 50 state capitols and the U.S. Capitol on Presidents’ Day at noon. While mainstream media isn’t covering it, many YouTubers have stepped up to provide coverage.

Or Lutheran Family Services.

So much for the tolerant left!

I’d argue that one of the factors contributing to TSOT is science illiteracy, and your work as a science communicator to get the public excited about things like Ganymede is a lot more effective in improving TSOT than endless kvetching about TSOT.

I can’t decide if I picked the best or the worst time to start reading the Foundation series.

If you carefully reread their posts in this thread, I think you’ll agree.

There are a lot of intellectually dishonest folk who question materialism under the banner of intellectual humility, but then turn give a pass to extremely specific, easily falsified, culturally specific alternatives.
From @quixoticpaul.bsky.social’s posts, they do not appear to be one of them.

My thought exactly.

Nice.

NYPD forensic analysts now believe the suspect likely played Van Halen’s “Eruption” flawlessly on a flaming guitar shortly after the shooting.

In the monophyletic group of isogamous eukaryotes that includes animals, we can answer that question based on homology. For vertebrates, mitochondrial inheritance is a (mostly) cut and dried way to assign sex.
