@heidasigurdar.bsky.social and I wrote a few words on how the Icelandic government needs to do a better job nurturing science to resist the anti-science movement that has now gotten supercharged after Trump took office. A rough translation screenshot below.

Do it today, and every time one of the broligarchs has a tantrum because he can’t buy it
This is not quite true. Many genes not on either the X or Y chromosomes containing genetic variats have been found to influence sexual development. A person can definitely have a Y chromosome and go through female sex development. Also, the deviation from binary sex is closer to 2% not 0.018%
4/ ...that is not simply determined by whether people carry two X chromosome or an X and a Y chromosome. A lot has happened in genetics since the sex chromosomes were first identified well over a century ago.
3/ Genetically, of course, at fertilization, it is determined what genetic variants one inherits and therefore roughly where on the sex determination spectrum the individual will land. However...
2/ Before sex determination starts at around week 6 post fertilization the embryo is neither phenotypically male nor female. Before sex determination but after the rudimentary gonads have formed, we speak of the "indifferent" gonad as it hasn't started developing in either direction.
1/ In reaction to Trump's executive order stating that there are only two genders based on the sex of the embryo at conception, there have been many posts going around stating that the fetus is female at conception, which is based on a misconception of #sex_determination.
Zeit Online showing a black and white picture of Elon Musk giving the salute, with blue painter's tape covering his arm. The headline is "Ein Hitlergruß ist ein Hitlergruß ist ein Hitlergruß" (A Hitler salute is a Hitler salute is a Hitler salute).
Die Zeit won't even show the salute.
Wowm congrats @maudborensztein.bsky.social ! Looking forward to diving in! :)
It is a Nazi salute irrespective of the intention... but I get your point.
"Appears to make" is still not saying it like it is.
Apparently Instagram has blocked the search for #democrat, but you can search for #republican. I'm too addicted to Meta's platforms but something's got to change.
@pasquelab.bsky.social exciting! Congrats and thanks! :)
