.@AureliosPizza Well that was awful. You brought in a gun-carrying policeman to do laps through the dining room throughout our entire family dinner. Talk about indigestion. What in God’s name made you think this was what we customers wanted?

@EthanRockStory I saw the name of your YouTube channel on my friend Cam Muskelly’s feed and couldn’t help thinking of this educational piece I put together a decade ago. Would your team be interested in working this up into a web app or similar?

.@Intertek I bought your LED device as a long-term solution to replace my incandescent nightlight, and then your LED device failed. Send a replacement pronto.
You are not helping with this whole #sustainability thing.

@Clarkeocrinus Maybe a Sphenothallus holdfast?

.@CMSMuseum Your past missteps are still hurting the reputations of museums everywhere. Will the damage ever be healed?

@jessicahester @NYTmag Urban fossils (of the Paleozoic) are my bread and butter. I adored this piece and wholeheartedly endorse the care and attention with which you expanded the concept of "fossil" here : ) See you on the sidewalk.

@miketangoromeo @UtahApproves Ok, then.

@miketangoromeo @UtahApproves St louis voter here. I’m not mad. If you want to make me mad, I’m up for it. Go.

@JarodAnderson @CryptoNature Then the bone next year is also not the bone today; they merely share atoms. What is the point of such thinking?

@miketangoromeo @UtahApproves St Louisan here. The alders do not have the power to rescind the implementation of Approval Voting here.

. @Hudson_News @HudsonBooks Your USB charger (the one whose Brookstone branding you re-license for your own products) fried my phone, cable, and battery cases, but your customer service unit is not responding. Please decide what kind of brand you are and take action accordingly.

@PaleoCameron Your prep is getting so good!

@chase_prairie On a smaller tree, the overall date range is narrower, so all male parts come ripe before any female parts do. Male and female ripeness dates thus fail to overlap, thus requiring a partner tree whose dates might overlap properly with those of the first tree. (3/3)

@chase_prairie Many older Pawpaw trees are self-fertile because for such a tree there is a broad enough range of flower maturation dates that some flowers’ pollen is ripe when other flowers’ pistils are receptive. (2/3)

@raistlinorr Thanks @PaleoCameron for connecting us on here :)
@raistlinorr is doing a crazy nice job, right‽

@PlLife2 This brings up the question: If trilobites did have ventral photoreceptors or even eyes the way some xiphosurans do, what skeletal/histological evidence would we expect to find? Have we looked? (Have we even looked in fossil xiphosurans?)
