THREAD: I just got an update from one of the

"There are bright spots...effective deregulation, historic tax reform...and more. But these successes have come despite—not because of—the president..." The op-ed is extraordinary proof that some want to benefit from racism without accepting its stigma.https://nyti.ms/2CyF3Jh

In order to feed itself, the loggerhead shrike performs a routine equivalent to
@edyong209 "shaking two legs of ham, or roughly one Chipotle burrito. In my mouth. With my neck. Eleven times a second."

@TheAtlantic interview with sociologist Margaret Hagerman on her new book "White Kids."

The loggerhead shrike is a hawk trapped in the body of a finch. It can kill relatively large prey by grabbing its victim by the neck and then shaking till the neck breakshttps://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2018/09/this-tiny-songbird-rolls-its-head-to-break-its-victims-neck/569341/ …

I love the hypothesis that the first dolphin was a tail-walking hipster who begrudged all the other kids picking up her awesome new move https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2018/09/dolphins-tail-walking-trend/569314/ …pic.twitter.com/dyFurMRL19

Wild dolphins don’t tail-walk, but Billie learned the trick from captive dolphins during a 2-week stint as a rescued animal. She later passed the silly move on to other wild dolphins when she was released.https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2018/09/dolphins-tail-walking-trend/569314/ …

TWEETORIAL AHEAD: This summer, I had a rare opportunity to join an
@NIH study and spend 23 hours sealed inside an 11-by-11.5-foot metabolic chamber... and I got a granular look at how metabolism works. A few takeaways:pic.twitter.com/mT8kWutAcl

In the article,
@edyong209 mentions 'holotypes' which is a word I was unfamiliar with until I started hanging around museum people. This essay by@MatthewBattles is one of my all time favourite pieces of writing and tells how holotypes come to be.https://aeon.co/essays/a-museum-s-cabinet-of-curiosities-is-also-a-chamber-of-secrets …Show this threadThanks.

Please read
@AdamSerwer on the Brett Kavanaugh nomination, and the precipice upon which we stand. America has been here before. The Supreme Court, during Redemption, enabled Jim Crow’s rise.
