This really is a great picture:

It's wild to me that I heard so much about pregnancy and postpartum hormones before I ever got pregnant, but I never heard about weaning hormones until a few months after I actually had a baby

it's only february, but finding out that the history of clinical trials can be connected to fake exorcisms is one of my favorite things i've learned this year open.spotify.com/episode/20mm...

me, emotionally writing an essay on the use of force by federal agents: ok but what if i packaged this in the most insane way possible www.theverge.com/policy/86857...

I had a video call with @hankgreen.bsky.social that I took in the gym, and now I'm worried that anyone walking behind me would have thought I was having an animated conversation with a science youtube video

i didn't realize how much having a toddler involves sending them on meaningless quests to keep them busy, and every time I feel like a tired wizard in a fantasy book trying to keep the humans busy so they don't set the world on fire or something

I know I posted on bluesky a while ago, but I kept thinking (and yelling) in my head about it, so here's so more ranting and raving, plus my answer to people trying to find a good source of facts on the internet www.debokic.com/search-sucks...

my job mostly involves googling science things all day, and it's been terrible to see how much worse that's become over the last few years. but not being able to trust government websites for basic science information really takes things to a new low

the corollary to people getting mad that a post on the internet not capturing their specific experience are people who make a broad critical post that, after getting pushback, is revealed to be about a very niche set of circumstances

shoutout to Tiny Matters intern Lilley Halloran, who wrote our latest episode about shipwreck ecology that I've been telling everyone about because I'm so excited about it open.spotify.com/episode/5kmL...

Between Selling Sunset, Selling the OC, and Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, it's a great time to be a fan of watching toxic workplaces implode

you should be allowed to opt out of horror movie trailers and weight loss treatment ads

We took the paywall down on this one. defector.com/how-the-fuck...

My friend and fellow journalist @alecluhn.bsky.social is missing. If you have any info/sway that could help this situation please send me a message 💛

you truly never know what you'll get with nonfiction book club

about to talk to @okidokiboki.bsky.social about So Many Stars for book club! www.youtube.com/live/SVNWMoG...

Threads only exists to update me about what's going on in internet book world, and to make me regret my belief from several years ago that the world of fanfiction would be good for romance publishing actually

I’m petrified about today’s science news. Genetically modifying crabs to have cheetah genes? This could go sideways fast.

EGGGGSSSSSSS

before working on this episode, i'd never thought about the fact that male seahorses have placentas, and now I can't stop thinking about it open.spotify.com/episode/0rnA...

Tiny Matters in good company!

paying taxes and setting aside money for retirement feels weird and fake right now

This weekend @okidokiboki.bsky.social and I are kicking off our non fiction book club 5 year bracket extravaganza and I decided to record myself preparing for that and looking back on my half of the 40 (!!!!) books we have read (and honestly some of her picks too): www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QGE...

being pregnant is weird, and being pregnant after miscarriages is also weird. but trying to figure out how to talk about pregnancy after miscarriages was surprisingly the weirdest thing to me. a year after i filmed this video, i finally feel ready to talk about it youtu.be/aHXWI0JFUlQ

Get to know Tiny Matters' co-host and science writer, @okidokiboki.bsky.social, with a few of her favorite things (AND favorite episodes)! If you haven't checked out Tiny Matters yet, this is your sign 💫

had so much fun talking to @okidokiboki.bsky.social about Mood Machine and all the big feelings this gave us about the internet and art and how this book is actually about all of us and you should definitely read it: www.youtube.com/live/yt9-s-o...

Hello! I am doing the book club thing again this weekend with @okidokiboki.bsky.social! Saturday at 2p ET we are chatting about Mood Machine: The Rise of Spotify and the Costs of the Perfect Playlist by Liz Pelly www.youtube.com/live/yt9-s-o...

This week’s Tiny Matters features @restingdinoface.bsky.social who guides us in exploring the complex and essential relationship between plants and animals across evolution and some of the pivotal moments that led to our world today. Listen anywhere you get podcasts open.spotify.com/episode/3ieM...

Sam @samjscience.bsky.social and Deboki @okidokiboki.bsky.social said to look up pink fairy armadillos in this week's episode of Tiny Matters, and they were absolutely correct! Look at this little guy! It's so tiny and weird and wonderful.

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research. I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.

🧪I had a blast curating this week's @pocketcasts.com guest list! Check it out and maybe you'll find a new podcast to fall in love with @acs.org @multitude.productions @okidokiboki.bsky.social 🔗 blog.pocketcasts.com/2025/01/16/s...

The wall has grown so much 🥹 Look how great Tiny Matters, Attach Your Résumé, and Wow If True look up there!

I'm so late to this, but House of Villains is truly the pinnacle of culture

I'm so excited!!

another year, another thanksgiving spent trying to figure out which "best damned vegan mashed potato" recipe on the internet is actually the one i like making

We don’t talk enough about how ai has ruined the true purpose of the internet: finding haircut inspo on Pinterest

Between Man City dropping a 3-goal lead and the Vanderpump Rules complete recasting, I don’t know what to spend my nighttime Reddit scrolling on

I'm a bit late to writing this, but I wanted to process what working on Journey to the Microcosmos has meant to me: www.debokic.com/on-journey-t...

good to see that i can replicate all my old mistakes from twitter on this platform (following too many people too quickly and immediately forgetting why i followed them)

🧪We’re launching a bonus series on Tiny Matters called ‘Tiny show and tell us’! Email [email protected] with your favorite science factoid, a personal science story, science news you’re itching to share…really anything you think listeners would enjoy! open.spotify.com/episode/4AAq...

On this #MicrocosmosMonday we bring you this purple amoeba that eluded James, our master of microscopes, for 6 years! 🧪 #scicomm #microscopy

It’s Microcosmos Monday! Today we’re asking: what makes a microbe rare? 🧪 #scicomm

Four genomes? Sure, why not. It’s Microcosmos Monday! 🧪 #microscopy #scicomm

🎃 In today's Tiny Matters @okidokiboki.bsky.social and I unpack a controversial theory about what caused the Salem witch trials and learn about the unbelievable evolution of mummification practices in ancient Egypt 🔗 open.spotify.com/episode/7gKI...

I used to think taking food pictures was a silly impulse, but I'm so glad I've been doing it anyway. for my latest newsletter, I looked back on the surprising themes that popped up around the world in the various meals i ate last year

This is a shameless ask for researchers/resources to learn more about history of reproduction, particularly miscarriage. I'm still early on in following the field, and I've read (and loved!) The Myth of the Perfect Pregnancy. Will be reading Lost soon, and would love to add more to my reading list

It’s Microcosmos Monday and our second spooky episode of the month is up! 🎃 I’m obsessed with the thumbnail @matthewgaydos.bsky.social put together for this one. 🧪
