Mid-Phanerozoic Exoplanets Might Be Easier to Detect than Modern Earth
In a new study, astronomers modeled the atmospheric composition and transmission spectra of five stages in Earth’s Phanerozoic Eon. Two key biosignature pairs — oxygen and methane, and ozone and methane — appeared stronger in models of Earth roughly 100 million to 300 million years ago, when oxygen levels were significantly higher.

Dan Gillmor

Almost uniquely among American journalists working at major outlets, is calling his peers on their rank cowardice in the face of the emergency our nation faces.

We may well be one election away from a dictatorship, and Big Journalism's business-as-usual approach amounts to collaboration the enemies of democracy.

Mastodon Migration

So, this very cool!

Just in time for the 2024 election cycle, Indivisible , has shuttered their Twitter account and relocated their social media presence to Mastodon.

With the goal of building a broad coalition of voters that support Democratic candidates to eliminate the filibuster, codify Roe, pass democracy reform and unrig the courts, Indivisible aligns well with Mastodon.

Indivisible had more than 250K followers on Twitter. Let's welcome them here!

I'm Doing It Wrong
Daily Sit-Ups Won't Target Your Belly Fat. An Expert Explains Why.
ads promote a concept known as "spot reduction", claiming you can burn fat in a specific body area, usually the belly, with specially designed exercises or workouts.
Unfortunately, spot reduction is another weight-loss myth. It's simply not possible to target the location of fat loss.

Part of the genetic heritage of today's modern humans comes from mixing with the Denisovans some tens of thousands of years ago – and the subsequent genetic adaptations may have left us predisposed to certain mental health issues such as depression.

George Takei :verified: 🏳️‍🌈🖖🏽

The GOP has introduced a bill to EXPEL Palestinians from the United States. I cannot read such things without remembering what happened to my own family after Pearl Harbor. After we and 120,000 other Japanese Americans were incarcerated in prison camps for years, without charge or trial, my own mother was very nearly expelled to Japan because of racial prejudice and hatred. Only the brave actions of a civil rights attorney saved her from being sent away. #NeverAgain

Starfish Are Basically Bodiless Heads Crawling Around The Ocean, Scientists Say
According to a new analysis of their gene expression, starfish and other echinoderms lack the architecture for an actual body.
They are essentially just mobile heads that sprouted the ability to crawl, say a team led by biologists Laurent Formery and Chris Lowe of Stanford University.

Digging With DNA: Soil’s “Biological Fingerprints” Point to Hidden Diamonds
Researchers have pioneered a method to detect buried kimberlite, a diamond-associated rock, by studying microbial DNA in surface soil. This offers a non-invasive way to identify minerals deep underground, proving more precise than traditional geochemical analysis. The technique, with broader applications in mineral exploration, could redefine the future of the mining sector.
