A nearly intact medieval wax notebook found in Germany still bears readable Latin notes, offering a rare glimpse into the daily life of a wealthy 13th- or 14th-century merchant.

Don’t let the MAGA Schmitt Clown Show, delightful though it may be, distract from Jack Smith’s passionate and fearless defense of public service and the rule of law: One for the ages. That the GOP gave him a forum to denounce 45/47 as a criminal is another example of their arrogance and stupidity.

Yup. Schmitt is definitely a suitable running mate for Vance. The nauseous churn of arrogance and stupidity will prove irresistible to the MAGA base. Being unable to distinguish men’s basketball teams from women’s is a problem though.

It is an abhorrent Bill b/c the athletes participating in a dangerous game that causes widely understood brain damage are often located in southern football leagues that are taking away votes from Black and Hispanic voters. We can die for a sport but not vote. The Senate should be shamed.

Ospreys are disappearing along the US East Coast due to a shortage of Atlantic menhaden, a crucial food source for ospreys. One company alone harvested nearly 300 million pounds of the fish in 2024 but somehow claims they’re not at fault. 🧐

Ospreys are disappearing along the East Coast. Scientists think they know why.
At the center of a widening crisis for one of the nation's great wildlife comebacks is a fish most Americans would hardly recognize.

And then the Society of Apothecaries changed the loophole in its regulations that permitted A WOMAN to qualify for its Licentiate, accepted by the General Medical Council for admission on the register, so fast their heads probably spun round.

Please don't overreact to the SCOTUS SAVE database decision today Page 6 of the decision makes clear that we are in the 90 day statutory window when mass changes cannot be made to voter lists! Yeah it's a shit decision for the reasons the 3 dissenters say but we can deal with it. More to come...

They do! I found it remarkable the break with the bog standard hate preachers of my Georgia childhood, who typically had bouffant hairdos, lots of jewellery, and a few extra pounds, much like some country western singers. These guys look like the cast call for the role of Mephistopheles in Faust.

😹Great idea! I love that history of medicine embraces medical practitioners. We enrich each other and that’s special. But patriarchal crap about how my work came from someone who wasn’t ‘medically qualified’ was tedious (and professionally harmful). ‘Historically qualified’ was never their thing.

The hierarchy of disciplines is nowhere more pronounced than in hist/sci/med. It’s just fine for an astrophysicist with no historical training to pronounce on Galileo. If a historian with no training in astrophysics listened to a couple of podcasts and did the reverse it would not go down well.

Dietram Scheufele is a major science communication scholar. What strikes me (as it has in past cases, including those at Michigan) is how academia--faculty and administrators--simply *do not want to know* about bad actors, especially when they are famous. Explains why ASU has turned a blind eye too.

Rant: A nice dept chair asked if I would teach a seminar I've taught several times before for the same dept in the same uni. I said sure. Then the "hiring" process began, which apparently has been recreated from scratch in the 5y since I last taught this course. I sent an updated CV, 🧵

Censoring medical research goes against the very mission of public health agencies and negatively impacts everyone’s health. See you in court.
Brown graphic with yellow text reading "The Trump administration is cutting research on dementia because it doesn't like 'DEI language'. We're suing." A screenshot of an email is on the graphic, sent from NIH to a researcher explaining that she must remove "DEI activity" from her grant application.

When you spend enough time in academia you will notice class based distinctions on career outcomes that have more to do with culture than with talent or work. You’ll also notice the improbably high share of faculty members who had at least one parent who is/was a faculty member.
