@nguyenhdi @BreatheLesss @BarbettiJames I'm not saying you're wrong, but it is pretty funny that your pinned blog post is titled "Calling for more humility when approaching classic literature"

[Nathan DeJong @nrdejong]

@svdbke @simongerman600 You made a Frenchman very upset - well done 👍

[Nathan DeJong @nrdejong]

@BManta66 @ChrisHillATX @esjesjesj Don't think this is the right take. It's clearly *not* an accurate depiction - no ram, only one bank of oars, the sail is different, etc. That said, the obsession with historical accuracy is misplaced, and Nolan is telling a living story, as the Greeks would have heard it sung

[Nathan DeJong @nrdejong]

@kascal @SpencrGreenberg Thought it was interesting to note that the human artists both incorporated a living creature in the painting as well

[Nathan DeJong @nrdejong]

@SpencrGreenberg I guessed it right... for me the giveaways are: top left - too many pears and peaches, it just looks off. The staging is vaguely unpleasant. Bottom right: the grapes have a square light on them which is artificially sharp and doesn't match the style well

Timeless advice

An honour to have my IQ questioned by you Mr VP. But your attempts to speak for Christ are false and dangerous. Nowhere does Jesus suggest that love is to be prioritized in concentric circles. His love is universal. 🧵

Imma try to keep this brief but quick history lesson... this specific rhetoric is literally how the Nazi party rose to power. I studied abroad in Berlin and learned a lot about the Weimar Republic which I had never even heard of before. They don't teach it here on purpose (1/?)

New research from @MaastrichtU shows higher exposure to fine particulate matter linked to brain atrophy, highlighting need for public health initiatives to reduce exposure and enforce stricter environmental regulations #AEScienceWatch

@Gmomwoz @TheRaDR Probably shared first authorship, although I haven't checked the actual paper

@womenpostingws and incidentally, for the people interested in the actual answer, the black dots are the "substantia nigra" - neuromelanin deposited in dopaminergic neurons in the basal ganglia

[Nathan DeJong @nrdejong]

@womenpostingws tbh I think this is a bit disrespectful to the person who's brain that was. I've dissected a human brain before - it's not really something to take lightly. That's a person.

[Nathan DeJong @nrdejong]

@OwenJones84 Seems like a typically nuanced and careful take on a complex and difficult situation 🙄 A good rule of thumb is whenever you use dehumanizing language (like "monster") about someone, then it's probably a bad take.

[Nathan DeJong @nrdejong]

@DownGoesBrown @jonassiegel They're not major changes, but come playoff time Woll-Stolarz feels infinitely more solid than Samsonov-Woll. I think that change is more impactful the than it feels right now

[@BrainComms @braincomms]

DeJong et al. explore relation between brain age, cognitive function & lifestyle factors with #dementia & found that Brain age partially mediates the association between lifestyle factors & cognitive function. @nrdejong @jfajansenphd

@NEIHoosier @Jascol88 @erikphoel @notsureaboutt20 Buddy, there are other places in the world than America. In those places kids grow up happy and healthy and sometimes they play *gasp* unsupervised. They also often refer to a backyard as a garden because that's what they call it in the UK

@JeffVeillette @chipnaputtt @TheOakLeafs The leaf fans who are adamant that we HAVE to move on from Marner seem like they forget that for a lot of years we just flat out didn't make the playoffs. It's frustrating to make it and lose, but Marner is part of the reason why it's basically a given that we make it...

[Nathan DeJong @nrdejong]

@WatchMyReview @mostlyleafies It's absolutely true. Honestly I see very little difference between the series they won and the ones they lost. The games come down to one goal in OT... it's a coin flip, and they had a string of tails before one finally came up heads

[ErrantScience @ErrantScience]

I hope all those PhD candidates that started their PhDs in the first weeks of COVID are doing okay 🍫
