Without cell machinery, how could RNA form polymer strands?
In this cool AFM study, wet/dry cycles provided the energy to polymerize up to thousands of RNA nucleotides into long strands, which persisted even in acid at high temperatures
Here’s a giant tangle of RNA strands formed this way 👇

I guess it’s a good thing we were so concerned about the right to speak our opinions being outlawed by a ruling class that we guaranteed it by making it the very first amendment in our Bill of Rights when we formed the country.

Yesterday in the Comey hearing, prosecutors *repeatedly* confirmed that the full grand jury never saw or voted on the two-count indictment.
Now they’re claiming the grand jury *did* vote on it.

Those claiming Dems should retreat on racial justice aren't hard-headed realists, they're pushing against the electoral tide rather than leaning into it. The story of Gen Z isn't about racist backlash or red-pilled young men. It's the most racially progressive generation in American history. 🧵
