This is my oil painting of my dear friend’s favourite view over the Shuswap River in BC, Canada. It makes me so happy to think of her waiting to round the corner on the highway just as it comes into view! #joy #blueskyartshow #oilpainting

At first glance, the raven is pitch black, but upon closer inspection, it shines with seven different colors of light. My hobby of bird watching has helped me to understand the fascination of crows. #Illustration #CommentPls #RTpls

The loss of a legend- Kanzi, the language-competent bonobo, has died age 44. Kanzi was exceptional in so many ways and offered us profound insights into the linguistic & cognitive capacities of great apes. He has taught us so much and will be hugely missed. www.apeinitiative.org/remembering-...

I am begging people to add some nuance when they talk about AI. AI is a huge field filled with actual groundbreaking things like programs that detect cancer. Saying "I hate AI" when you mean you hate *generative AI* is as inaccurate as saying "I hate animals" when you mean you hate mosquitoes.

Thursday artshare! #artshare

“What radicalized you?” Bro I was told to treat people the way I would want to be treated in kindergarten and it made sense idk what else there is to say

The MOST ABUNDANT PROTEIN ON EARTH is probably the one that almost all life depends on. It makes up ~3% of the mass of every leaf & blade of grass on the planet: a total weight of 10^11 kg. Let's talk about Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase or 'RuBisCO'. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

The uncountable hours I spent reading and watching political coverage and at the end I had no idea what world I was living in, I just thought I did. If I'd spent that time reading about, say, birds, I would now know an awful lot about an awful lot of birds.

I'm seeing a video making the rounds that claims mammograms cause cancer. This anti-science movement is a contagion. Mammograms save lives. It saved mine when it detected an incidental #breastcancer. I was asymptomatic & the tumor was not yet palpable. An early diagnosis can be key to survival.

Huh, I apprently missed copy/pasting the one tweet with a link to the paper. My bad! Here is the preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

What is common knowledge in your field but shocks outsiders? We don't all have the same number of bones or muscles. There's an average, I guess. We all kind of cluster around it. Some muscles are pretty rare. Some people just invent their own artisanal bones.

What is common knowledge in your field but shocks outsiders? 8% of the human genome is made of viral sequences, and another 35-50% are virus-like sequences with the ability to hop around your genome. For comparison, only 1.5-3% of your genome contains genes. We're basically a vehicle for viruses.
