I'm extracting DNA from the legs of spiders which were euthanized by freezing in a household freezer. In almost every spider, the DNA shows a banding pattern associated with apoptosis. Why would there be so much programed cell death in the legs of spiders? Had it already happened naturally? Was it induced during the freezing process? I do not see this happening in other organisms using the same extraction procedure.
Each lane is DNA extracted from a different spider.

Happy birthday to #physicist Lise Meitner (1878-1968) who explained #nuclear #fission. She worked with chemists Hahn & Straßmann in 30s Berlin, investigating whether there were any stable elements beyond uranium. They discovered bombarding nucleus of U-235 with neutrons actually triggered it to fission, or break, into 2 nuclei of roughly half the size & some free neutrons! Hahn’s chemistry lead to startling discovery of barium,🧵

Two demonstrators with provocative signs drew a counter-protest of hundreds of students at the Stallions.
The demonstrators arrived before 12:20 p.m. and quickly had a crowd of at least 100 students surrounding them in opposition. The two demonstrators were with the Official Street Preachers, a news outlet that covers events “from a Christian perspective.” There were two signs the demonstrators held – one said “Homo sex is sin” the other said “Women are property” on the front and “Types of Property: Women, Slaves, Animals, Cars, Land etc.” on the back.

Re: this:
I’m probably preaching to the choir here, but now is a very important time for Puerto Ricans to recognize the privilege we have in the larger LatAm community, especially when we live in the mainland, and turn that awareness not into guilt or shame or anger about anyone trying to make you feel bad, but into pure unfiltered solidarity with all other vulnerable LatAm “cousins” who have to struggle more than we do with things like language and citizenship and all the things that stuff entails.
I look forward to my community showing up for each other in the coming years, and to show up for our cousins.
Maybe stay in the next couple of months by making some coquito and connecting with your LatAm neighbors. You know we love making coquito for others. #PuertoRico

It was sitting in my queue for a bit, but I finally got around to listening to this discussion between @ntnsndr & @gleemie about his new (open-access) book Governable Spaces. It seemed an especially good moment to reconnect with ideas of how we can better work together, especially online.

#Mastodon, we have a troll problem.
Increasingly I discover Russian sympathisers and trolls who reply to my posts with content I cannot see. I only discover these replies because other users react to them.
Attached is an example where @Gurre replies to a troll (pic 1), but I cannot scroll upwards and see the troll's post.
This seems to allow an attacker to attach content to my posts, without me being able to see it and block him.
I have seen this exploit a number of times.
