Really more of a review than science news. But this result is fascinating, at least for me, so I wanted to share it somewhere.
That man is a national treasure.
Trent needs to start doing this version.
Only if he teams up with Carly Rae first:
We donāt even know if itās an arthropod.
I think BANDits use the convergent evolution between shuvosaurs, poposaurs, and theropods to argue that there might just be convergent evolution between birds and non-bird theropods, but there are a lot more characters involved.
Ugh. I cannot click a like button for this.
I thought we were friends. Why would you do this to my ears?
Possibly because the two best mashups Iāve heard involve Head like a Hole played against Carly Raeās tracks (the other being PomDeterās setting of Reznorās vocals against the backing tracks of Call Me Maybe). Given how very well Reznorās tune slotted in, Iām not sure what that says about his songwritingā¦
Ending paragraph:
B-15 will be missed. But its fans may take solace in knowing that, thanks to climate change, another ālargest iceberg everā will probably break away soon enough.
More volcano news, but this is different ā a round up of some of the science behind the ongoing Kilauea eruption, and what we might learn from it.
Some interesting and some unhappy science reporting today in the Atlantic:
(Itās somewhat older than typical science news, and certainly a lot longer, but itās a cool video, IMHO)
I didnāt know about Thorne Å»ytkow Objects before watching this.
Migraine warning!
Not herpes, per se, but viruses that get in the brain, go dormant and, in theory cause an immune response that cause amyloid plaques. Herpes has been in speculation for a while but the new stuff suggests that itās more general than that.
Sexism, is there anything this shitty belief canāt make worse?
What gets me are the articles found which make fun of sufferers ā and the medical journals they were found in. Like, what the everloving fuck? These people are in medical distress, for whatever reason, and your reaction is to make fun of them???
Yeah, they might have the self-diagnosis wrong. No shit. Theyāre patients.
The medical establishment needs to decide if they want the population to keep themselves informed and partner with them, or keep ourselves absolutely ignorant and let them decide everything. They donāt get it both ways.
