Transformers! More than meets the eye!

This VERY ANGRY ROCK is actually a brown box crab (Echidnocerus foraminatus), a king crab found off the Pacific coast of North America.

The impressively compact shape is a defense posture, but there's an even neater feature not shown here.

Une toute nouvelle étude vient de sortir, elle est très commentée.
L'ADN prélevé sur le suaire de Turin apporterait une confirmation de son parcours géographique depuis l'Orient : un nouvel indice d'authenticité, nous dit-on.

Et les données, que disent-elles vraiment ?

Sexual Selection Associated With an Aggressive Male Phenotype Reduces Population Size and Hinders Population Recovery After Heat Stress Using experiments on soil mites, we show that sexual selection associated with an armed and aggressive male phenotype can reduce population size and stability, which lowers their resilience against a...

Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

French man, 86, issues historic apology for family’s role in transatlantic slavery Pierre Guillon de Prince believed to be first in France to formally apologise for ancestors’ allegiances to slavery An 86-year-old man has issued what is believed to be the first formal apology by someone in France for their family’s role in transatlantic slavery.

L’actrice Nathalie Baye est morte à l’âge de 77 ans. Révélée par Truffaut dans "La Nuit américaine", elle aura traversé le cinéma pendant plus de 50 ans, de Godard à Chabrol, de Pialat à Dolan. Une présence, une voix, une manière d’être là sans forcer le trait.

Pop science doesn't reach a "general audience" Pop sci readers are wealthy, educated, and left-leaning

My post from February on pop science and the "general audience" is a good example of what's to come.

But it's not all going to be meta-scicomm.

I'll still write about science.

Just expect less "fun" and more research on science/scicomm/the info env. itself or topics with high + immediate stakes.

I wrote this piece after someone told me I needed to be “less emotional” and “more analytical” about Trump - as if we’re still living in a rational world, where reason and logic guide this administration, and its actions aren’t harming millions across the world. I disagree. We need to be angrier.
