This poor ant. It was taken over by a fungus that invades its body, grows in its tissues, orders it to climb up a tree and bite onto a twig, killing it. The fungus explodes out the back of its head, raining spores on ants below. Yeah. 📸 Kim Fleming

It looks like Pravda on the Hudson is back, touting the forced "equality" of a Communist prison state. It isn't a hot take, it's the propaganda that was in all my Soviet schoolbooks.

USSR and post-Soviet Russia combined? 4 women astronauts since 1963. The USA? Almost 50, including all these firsts: mother, Chinese-born woman, payload specialist, married couple, black woman, hispanic woman, shuttle pilot and commander, ISS commander, and teacher. Also oldest.

What's interesting is that if you read this piece, it's crystal clear that Soviet "gains" in space-program diversity were pure PR. Tereshkova's flight was a one-off; USSR's space program was all-male after that until the US began to train women astronauts

We need to have three perspectives at once as I wrote here: – The world is much better: Child mortality has never been lower. – The world is awful: Every day 15,000 children die. – The world can be much better: Child mortality in the EU is 10x lower.

Tarantula Xenesthis immanis keeps small frog Chiasmocleis ventrimaculata as a "pet," to eat insects that eat the spider's eggs. In return the frog receives protection, in a so called relationship of commensalism

Finishing up ’s The Ape That Understood the Universe. A thought-provoking read dealing with evolutionary psychology, cultural evolution and memetics. While a couple of those concepts are considered controversial, Steve lays them out entertainingly and convincingly.
