Hey, for anyone who knows (or doesn’t know) my old friend from twitter @Jeffwni — he’s having a difficult month and could really use community support. He’s always been kind to others, so I hope some of that kindness will come back around now when he needs it.

He’s an artist, but doesn’t have anything for sale just this moment. You can buy him a coffee here: ko-fi.com/jeffwni

I went to sign some books at Woodstock's The Golden Notebook bookshop today and they gave me this book as a thank you. Two hours later her death was announced.

Dear Gen Z,

In 1992 Sinéad O'Connor ripped a picture of the Pope in half on Saturday Night Live to protest the sex abuse scandals in the Catholic Church. She was roundly condemned except by a few.

In the years and decades that followed the truth came out and the scope of abuse within the Catholic Church came to light. Many, but not enough, were punished. Many, but no where near enough, victims were heard, believed and lived to see some measure of justice.

With the birdsite looking increasingly [fill in your favorite adjective], can we try some pre-conference networking for #PlantBio2023 on this site?

Who's going to the ASPB Plant Biology meeting in Savannah, Georgia next week?

I am, and I'm looking forward sharing updates from our NSF-funded ROOT & SHOOT project, especially the Conference Ombuds program (see rootandshoot.org/developing-a-).

Reply if you will attend and what you hope to get from it!

Asking a woman if she is “on her period” won’t help you but treating her like she is “on her period” might save your life.

Black-American musical expression during enslavement laid the foundation for blues, jazz, country, gospel, rock ‘n’ roll, R&B, & popular music. Emerging from oppression, it reflected resilience & creativity, becoming anthems for civil rights movements the world over. The emotive force and cultural distinctiveness of those early songs endure, nurturing the ongoing struggle for a more just world.

I'm finding it a little hard to work today with this in my head.

Antarctic ice extent is now 6.4 standard deviations below the mean. That is, I'm reliably told, a one in 13 billion year event.

We're about to see a lot of shit hit a lot of fans. And we are far from ready.

Business as usual is over. Politics as usual is over. We need to be putting our effort into building systems that can help us survive what greed and power and wilful blindness have wrought.

🖤 Na data de hoje, mas em 1980, o AC/DC lança seu clássico álbum Back in Black, um dos discos mais vendidos de todos os tempos.

O disco marca o retorno da banda após a perda do vocalista Bon Scott, e traz hits como "You Shook Me All Night Long" e a faixa-título.

Environmental awareness in the practice of should be better. We do research to preserve the using many non-renewable resources. 🤔

Sim! Agora consigo ver! É complexo porque a cronologia das ideias e a evolução das obras não são lineares. Obrigado! 🙏

@askesis @lgpsales pensando bem.. sim .. é importante ter os dois anos.. got ir... kkk

@askesis @lgpsales acho que entendi.. Nesse caso, não poderia usar a publicação original como referência? tipo só "Darwin 1859"? Acho que facilitaria leitura... mas acho que entendi a questão temporal da evolução dos saberes... e é uma coisa muito fascinante

@askesis @lgpsales não consigo imaginar isso na minha cabeça de exatas 😂 acho que vc poderia citar essa data no corpo do texto, mesmo sem aparecer na referência... mas enfim.. acho que o pior de tudo mesmo é a necessidade de usar ✌️
