Excellent comments by @darmenteras.bsky.social, can't wait to share w/ my #STS students. Makes me think of some of the strategies Tapuya Journal @tapuya.org mobilized to great ends. The part Dr. Armenteras doesn't say (as in Tapuya's case) is that building sideways often makes the science stronger.
Institutions and scientists claim to want to reform how scholars from historically overexploited countries are treated — but after too many invitations that offered only superficial opportunities, ecologist Dolors Armenteras has come to the conclusion that it’s “time to build sideways, not upwards”
Equity in science is a beautiful lie — and I’m done pretending
Science isn’t really moving towards equity; institutions are just perfecting the appearance of equity. We need to build an alternative system.

Scientists of Bluesky, help me!
Do you have an example of a question that was (1) studied using both observational and experimental methods, and (2) the observational results are far more trustworthy because of the circumstances and/or quality of design?

This is amazing. Theatre making is kin making, even when you don't work together directly. The script connects us like one long hilarious family anecdote.
Today is the 50th anniversary of the Broadway opening of A Chorus Line. To celebrate, about 173 of us who danced in that show gathered outside in the Lincoln Center Library of Performing Arts plaza, performed The Opening Away From the Mirror, One, and What I Did For Love. 💙

Replication and cooking is a tried and tested metaphor. The Youtube Channel "Answer in Progress" is taking this a step further. They ask about the value of the "intro paragraphs" of recipe websites, where food writes share bits of their lives and personal experiences to add flavour to the recipes 1/
