David MayhoodHow effective has science been in stemming global heating? The evidence is: Scientists are having exactly zero meaningful effect.

Now some say its time for scientists themselves to take direct action.

Marc Robinson-RechaviI regularly see posts on mask wearing in planes. I'm happy that you're paying attention to health and wearing a mask. But I'm a bit suprised to see so many posts which are framed like taking the plane is an ordinary, frequent, occurrence. Covid is real, but so is climate change.
Thibault (Tibo) Leroy ☑️New preprint by @GilYardeni "The explosive radiation of the Neotropical Tillandsia subg. Tillandsia (Bromeliaceae) has been facilitated by pervasive hybridization." 👏
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2023.11.16.567341v1
We used whole-genome reseq data of 34 Tillandsia sp and observe high rates of hybridization within and among clades, which could have facilitated this radiation.
In addition to all the phylogenomic work (figs in the main text), don't hesitate to have a look at the SI (e.g. introgression footprint on chr18)
Clelia SiramiResearchers looked for most influential voices in the discourse about Israel–Hamas war on X
They found that 7 accounts, many unknown a yr ago, were racking up 100s of mill. of views/day, out-performing standard news accounts by an order of magnitude and exercising significant influence on the discourse around the war
Elon Musk had interacted with or explicitly recommended 6 of those posters, potentially bringing them to the attention of his 162 mill. followers
Yesterday it was one year that I joined Mastodon, thanks in great part to the excellent initiative of @alxsim in creating #ecoevosocial in a timely manner.
My activity on Twitter had been slowing down, and I've been really happy of the new place and pace I've found here. At the same time I regret what we lost with science Twitter, and I'm afraid we'll never get back anywhere.

I'm sad to see how much science discource is still on Twitter, and how it is still the main source for science news stories. Yet I'm hopeful we can build something durable here, because the openness allows experimentation and innovation, in addition to being the right thing to do.
