Hi all, I had a podcast contributor drop out, and I’m looking for a great, compelling mini-series pitch to greenlight (3 eps) for our new @sciam podcast, Science Quickly. Would love something creative around archaeology, anatomy, or a related field. DM with Q’s!

♻️ Why isn’t more plastic actually recyclable?
🍴 Why don’t compostable forks actually compost?
🤨 When are we going to solve our waste problems?

These Qs and more in our latest #podcast episode with 3 scientists working on new, improved plastics. https://t.co/xv1uAiyr4O

I really wish all of us had the (very generous) holiday schedule of NYC's street cleaners.

Stepped outside of my Brooklyn apartment today & had flashbacks to California’s wildfire season … Stay safe neighbors.

What is it about pockets that make any outfit (at least) 10x better? @meaganroll

[National Park Service @NatlParkService]

Friend: “I love your outfit!”
Me: Thanks! It has pockets!

Did you know sea otters have flaps of loose skin under each forearm that they use like a pocket? What are these pockets full of? (Hint: It’s not sunshine.)

Reviewing flash talk pitches for an upcoming @doescience summit ... The intersection between basic science x pop culture is real (Breaking Bad, Zombies, Ghostbusters galore). Get excited!

The creativity here makes me smile. And, it's an excellent way to inject some fashion into #scicomm!

We asked #ChatGPT to write a song about Flaco (NYC’s beloved Eurasian eagle-owl) in the style of Elton John. Wow. #birdcpp #birdcp

@Ironmely Queue up the multimedia stories!

[Ashleigh F Papp @heysmartash]

The up close footage on this short film is INSANE … and the topic is pretty awesome too! Have no fear, animal robots are here 🐸 🤖

Xenobots are living, swimming, self-powered robots less than a millimeter across, evolved by artificial intelligence and built out of frog stem cells—and they could open new medical frontiers. https://t.co/4u8ItWW5m9
