@Tyrant_Lizerd @ClintsReptiles I think the mosquito would get stuck in the blowhole, decompose inside and cause an infection that leads to generalized sepsis

@Emmpath @AcademicChatter I'm hoping it's "GPS tracking for superheroes"

Flight attendant: Is there a doctor on board?!

Me: Yes, but not that kind of ...

Flight attendant: Pilots are arguing about the phylogenetic position of extinct nonradial echinoderms

Me: Tell them to come over here

@TUExplorer1 @SarahMackAttack I suggest searching for "african cichlid venting" on google images. More than enough content 😅

Sci Hub is a "pirate" website with 88M research papers freely available.

Using it is not advisable. We should all try to make billion-dollar acdemic publishers richer.

Here's a thread on integrating Zotero with Sci Hub to get free articles.

PLEASE DON'T DO THIS 😉

@LanDupuis @AcademicChatter I do care, if too many people skip class or lag behind, then we are forced to adapt the course content to allow for re-explaining or skipping certain topics, it's just better if they attend in the first place.

🚨La prepublicación del proyecto de decreto que creará la Reserva Nacional Mar Tropical de Grau es una iniciativa que felicitamos. SIN EMBARGO, esta área no debe ponerse en riesgo permitiendo la pesca industrial. Carmen Heck, dir. de Políticas de @Oceana_Peru ahonda en ello.

Why is Savannah the only acceptable biome name to give a person? Where are all the kids named Palustrine Wetlands?? Xeric shrubland?? smh

This explains the "I do my own research" crowd

Intermediate levels of scientific knowledge are associated with overconfidence and negative attitudes towards science.

This is based on four large surveys, spanning 30 years in Europe and the United States and does not rely on self-reporting or peer comparison.

Be wary of overconfident people who know just enough to think they are experts, but not enough to understand the limitations of their own knowledge.

@conf_episcopal "En un embarazo por violacion existen 3 personas, el violador, la victima y un inocente" ¿Esa es la enseñanza del catolicismo peruano? Dicen enseñar amor, compasion y la importancia de la familia, pero no veo eso nada de lo que comunican. Decepcionante.
