@RevAndyKarlson @it_pendar Get busy and confirm earlier findings. For science!

@it_pendar @RevAndyKarlson The recipe was given to me by a friend who said her work was raving about it, but she didn't like it. She was totally wrong about this not being great.

[Krista @digipub]

@it_pendar @RevAndyKarlson Oh, man. You're making me miss our cookouts so much!!

[The Chicago Manual of Style @ChicagoManual]

Chicago now prefers “Black” with a capital “B” when it refers to racial and ethnic identity. “White” may also be capitalized when used in this sense, though individual preferences should be respected, and usage may depend on context. #ChicagoStyle https://t.co/CJUgNSiWt5

Strange how @UpshotNYT chose to skip nearly the entire set of findings in the article in favor of this one, barely mentioned and totally unexplained assertion. Coincidentally, the ONLY part of this article that didn't call out workplace advantages for white male shift workers. 🙄

[The Upshot @UpshotNYT]

Workers’ job quality was worse when they had a direct supervisor of a different race. https://t.co/7xevsruw4Y

@hmvanderhart @nematodeode My uncle has been educating me about native bees vs European honey bees!

This 1950s footage reveals the monumental effort that goes into creating a scientifically accurate habitat reconstruction, from the painted background to replicas of real plant specimens. 🛠🎨
