🧵with the behind the scenes story of our eclipse paper!
I do want to take a minute to share the backstory of our paper on the total solar eclipse that triggered dawn behavior in birds. This was SUCH a fun paper to work on, a major light in a lot of different tunnels over the past 18 months. doi.org/10.1126/scie... < ☀️ Let the light puns begin ☀️ > (1/x)

I am (not) sorry, this is the funnies thing I have seen in weeks. Big bad, mask-wearing, weirdos are scared of the frog man. Love to see it.

An unprecedented violation of our civic and Constitutional traditions. Calling every military leader in the world back to the U.S. to hear a wildly inappropriate partisan campaign speech followed by a fascist call to use the military against Americans.
Hey, that's me. Thank you to @sfn.org and @neuronline.sfn.org for this wonderful opportunity to catch up with Dr. Bailey and discuss my unique undergrad experience. I hope listeners enjoy! 🎙🎧
Tune into the latest episode of “Think Alike?” as Kira Bailey, PhD, and her former student, Chandler Carr discuss projects they’ve collaborated on, co-teaching a class, and the shared passion for science that connects them.

Join my super cool lab!!
I am recruiting 1-2 graduate students (M.S. or Ph.D. track) to join my lab at @psychualberta.bsky.social in Fall 2026! Please share widely, and if you are interested in endocrinology, animal behavior, neuroscience, and/or seasonal biology, I would love to chat! 🐟🧠🧬🍂

Y'know that study that the DOJ deleted from their website? The one concluding that "the number of far-right attacks continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism"?

Here it is. Just read the first paragraph:

Jeffery Dahmer and I Talk Cooking Recipes
Another stupid fucking column by Ezra “bend the knee” Klein platforming hateful racist Ben Shapiro, titled “Ben Shapiro and I Talk Political De-escalation”
Big fan of Most Bittern.
There are 13 birds with "Least" in the common name and none with "Most".

This seems to be an oversight.

My parents took me out of a country where this was the norm and where it led to the execution and imprisonment of millions of innocent people. They brought me here, to America, believing that it would not happen here. And yet here we are.

A solitary protester plays Rage Against the Machine as ERO agents swarm to chase him back two feet onto the public sidewalk.
Unfortunate. That describes most movies, of course, so maybe we can't hold it against them.
Also, never trust a person who uses the term "hard science" or refers to another group of people as "another species".
This is stupid for a number of reasons, but could someone please tell of a time when science has ever been apolitical?
Oh good. We've reached the "I don't have to be faster than the bear, I only have to be less woke than you" stage of faculty solidarity. archive.is/wGNDr

When Michael Jordan felt boxed in by his success in basketball he tried baseball. When Gary Brooks became synonymous with country he created Chris Gaines. And when JK Rowling created the most successful kids books of all time she reinvented herself as a petty, weirdo transphobia influencer.
Seems like it could have a ceiling effect, but definitely valuable information.

1. This week, the FBI released its comprehensive crime report for 2024, which revealed that both VIOLENT CRIME and PROPERTY CRIME reached their LOWEST LEVELS SINCE THE 1960s

This a massive story. But you might not have heard about it, even if you follow the news closely.

Here's why.
Why you might not know that 2024 was America's safest year since the 1960s
An overwhelming majority of Americans, 64 percent, believe that crime increased across the country in 2024, according to a Gallup survey conducted late last year.
