In honor of Halloween, it's time for GOURD FACTS.
For every donation to the link below I will post one (1) fact about gourds, pumpkins, squash, and all the ways we use them. It's a really useful family of plants!

Mein Vortrag
"Die langen Zeitlinien der Evolution"
in der Samstagsuni @UniFreiburg fand ein großartiges Echo.
Gut 350 Interessierte kamen.
So macht #scicomm#wisskomm Spass.
Die Vorlesung wurde aufgezeichnet und steht bald online zur Verfügung.
RIGGED ELECTIONS IN GEORGIA 🇬🇪
I've spent the last 48 hours proving fraud in the Georgian elections.
Let me show you the evidence in 2 charts.
Chart 1: Russian tail...
Re: that whole Oxford situation, I also was an international student who did a PhD in the UK. If you make it to all the way to 4th year before finding out that your thesis isn’t viable, your supervisors have failed you, likely because the uni wanted to keep extracting £££
Have you ever wondered where the snowiest place on Earth is? Me too! ❄️
My calculation reveals that the Andes Mountains in southern Chile average up to around 2000 inches (5080 cm) of snow per year, making it the snowiest place on the planet according to the ERA5 reanalysis.
Es ist bedenklich, wie still Politik und Öffentlichkeit angesichts der Tatsache bleiben, dass Nordkorea Soldaten schickt, um gegen die Ukraine zu kämpfen. Putin tanzt dem Westen auf der Nase rum & wir kuschen. Die NATO muss auf diese Provokation reagieren. https://t.co/ShcwfzbRQ7
I'm very excited that finishing-year grad student Yao Tang has brought this major paper to conclusion, reassessing the role of "core-powered" mass loss in sub-Neptunes, using a new core-to-exosphere coupled evolution, structure, and mass-loss model.

I find it frankly baffling, this push to make the poorest students go hungry. It is not the fault of the children that they can’t afford food. If they’re unable to eat, they will be unable to learn, and you’re condemning them to being poor for the rest of their lives.
Wir sind an dem Punkt angekommen, an dem sich Geschichte so offensichtlich und transparent wiederholt, dass man allen, die dies nach wie vor leugnen oder ignorieren, böswillige Absicht unterstellen muss.
Hey asteroid and meteorite people -- evidence that 70% of meteorites come from the same three collisional events. If this is so, then we may know so much less about the composition and history of planetesimals than we thought! https://t.co/yXJnS1VtKw
Jahrelang habe ich meine Schüler (m,w,d) gelehrt, was "Wehrhafte Demokratie" heißt u warum "Bonn nicht Weimar" ist. Und jetzt sehe ich zu, wie alle Mechanismen versagen, weil sie gar nicht verwendet werden.
Ich bitte alle, die je von mir unterrichtet wurden, um Entschuldigung.
The first is model analysis paper for JWST transmission spectrum of our favorite sub-Neptune GJ1214b! I really appreciate great MANATEE team to allow me work again on GJ1214b! Please also see a companion paper led by @sockitpocket for data analysis detail.

@exoplumbus I would say the #1 is that figures for a proposal are not the same as figures for a paper. You really have to imagine a time-crunched person whose eyes are maybe glazing over a little, so cartoons, arrows on figures, text on figures, to make things very clear to the reader.
