ADL removes ‘Protect Civil Rights’ from website as it narrows its mission amid right-wing attacks - Jewish Telegraphic Agency

The removal took place after FBI Director Kash Patel said he would cut ties with the ADL, though it is unclear if that has happened.

Are humans really the only rational animals? Our NEW PAPER 🎉 out in @science.org suggests otherwise! In a large collaboration led with my joint first author @hanna-schleihauf.bsky.social, we show that “Chimpanzees rationally revise their beliefs” 🧵

Chimpanzees rationally revise their beliefs

The selective revision of beliefs in light of new evidence has been considered one of the hallmarks of human-level rationality. However, tests of this ability in other species are lacking. We examined...

He got so many forbidden foods in the last two days. He was a huge asshole most of his life, and yet we will love him forever. I’m just rambling. I love him and miss him and am broken. Here he is from this morning, looking pretty perky, which hasn’t been the case for weeks.

A little white dog looking at the camera. He’s standing on a concrete patio that’s covered in sunflower seed shells.

At least they managed to funnel all that money to interfere with Argentina's election though! Whew. I feel better knowing they've managed that, even with our bare cupboard and hungry crying kiddos.

As someone who first learned of (and became a big fan of) Lanthimos when DOGTOOTH came out, I'm amazed to have a choice of seeing BUGONIA starting Friday in any of the five theaters I patronize.

Trying to decide whether to just go tomorrow on my own, then see it again with my husband. 📽️ #FilmSky
