Parsley is an herbal cure for ‘wind’ 🏃🏻♀️💨
Last day for public comment!
Yesterday, those who teach Intro to Sociology at Florida colleges (as opposed to universities) received a ready-made curriculum from the state and were ordered to teach it.
Yes, you read that correctly. The *state* is enforcing a curriculum on college profs, complete w/ the following restrictions:
Kimmerer in Braiding Sweetgrass has a couple chapters that blend scientific report format and narrative, especially Mishkos Kenomagwen: The Teachings of Grass.
A confidential agreement provides yet more evidence of the administration’s campaign to interfere with upcoming elections. bit.ly/46tX4nd

I always point this out about the eugenicist/mathematician/biologist Ronald Fisher. He wore glasses throughout his life but thought we knew enough to improve humans. In biology, the selective value of traits depends on the context. In humans it depends on our inherent worth and dignity.

I love seeing a shred of accountability for Trump as much as anyone, but it's pretty striking that most people are prepared to believe a man who's a convicted serial rapist-sex trafficker and NOT ALL THESE WOMEN katemanne.substack.com/p/the-actual...

This whole thread is very good, but here she also points out the main issues my coauthor and I identified in our article Reasons for Caution When Genotyping Students online.ucpress.edu/abt/article/...
LAST CHANCE: Proponents of the anti-voter SAVE Act are pressuring the Election Assistance Commission to require documents like a passport in order to register to vote. Tell the Commission: Don’t make it harder for Americans to cast a ballot bit.ly/4ngSyyl
Reed and Whitehouse keep acting like bipartisanship is still the right move. I will be contributing to anyone who primaries them.
And another great data point for revealing abilist assumptions in evolutionary biology
Senators Reed and Whitehouse support NDAA that targets transgender rights and allows Trump unlimited domestic troop deployment
