Holly, ivy, blue skies and bird song 😊 whether you're celebrating, ignoring or simply surviving Xmas day I hope you have some moments of peace and joy. It was so sunny here I went to do a few jobs and ended up starting a compost heap 😀🌱

"Bombings are not the only way to kill people"
Dr. Mimi Syed—who has volunteered in Gaza multiple times during the worst of the genocide—warns that we will gradually see a massive number of deaths from entirely preventable causes.
Please don't forget us here in Gaza🙏

We are the wealthiest country in the world and yet this is how we treat our seniors and veterans. If you support Trump and Republicans ripping away SNAP, Medicaid, and Obamacare subsidies to give tax cuts to billionaires — GO FUCK YOURSELF. 😳👇

🧵 Australia and New Zealand will become the first non-NATO countries to contribute to a fund buying critical military equipment for Ukraine. It includes a A$50m contribution to Purl – the “prioritised Ukraine requirements list” under which NATO buys arms for Ukraine from the US.

We were also asked whether insects fly into the windows of high-rise apartments. Or: how high do insects fly? Does it depend on the insect? Is any apartment high enough to avoid them? I worked with a wonderful entomologist/urban ecologist on this one. 🧪

I am continuously delighted at the perplexing ways that nature works, and today I learned that the 'chaotic but ordered' nature of our universe can be found in the face of a crocodile.

There's some very neat physics here in how the cracking process works.
The complexity & randomness mean that every crocodilians face is like a fingerprint: likely never replicated in the history of life on Earth, but still optimized for touch sensitivity.

Pay careful attention to the SHAPES of the scales on this saltwater crocodile (Crocodylus porosus).
See how they're regular on the neck & back, but irregular polygons on the face/head? Why do you think that is?
As of 2012, we have an answer! A special process guides scale formation on the head.

#PPOD: This is a sparkling scene of star birth captured by NASA’s JWST. What appears to be a craggy, starlit mountaintop kissed by wispy clouds is actually a cosmic dust-scape being eaten away by the blistering winds and radiation of nearby, massive, infant stars. 🧪 🔭 👩🔬

🧪 🌠 @danclery.bsky.social did a terrific job reporting this out. A pretty eye-popping stat in here: If satellite launches thru the 2030s happen as planned, there'll be HALF A MILLION satellites orbiting Earth by 2040—enough to contaminate many space telescopes' images with the occasional streak.

The Dutch traded live eels to London starting in the mid-15th C., & quickly won a monopoly on eel sales in the city.
How do we know?
Well...by the 16th C., English regulations started calling ALL eel sellers in the city "palingmen" from the Dutch word for eel: paling. 1/2
