this noise is to mimic the 'piping' of young queen honeybees, as Acherontia spp. (deaths head hawkmoths) post up in honey bees colonies to take a smol sip-sip of honey and have to disguise themselves it's objectively hilarious that the queen of the goth-moths squeaks like this

This is something many beekeepers still do, especially following the death of the bees' keeper. I have been present for more than 'telling of the bees' following a death.

A symbol of mourning was to “tell the bees” about the loved one’s passing. Someone from the house would have the chore of informing the bees kept on the property of the death and sometimes the hives were even draped with black to show their mourning.

Chris Pratt reveals he suffered from a painful bee sting on his left eye after attempting to “control bees’ when seeing a beehive. After viewing a popular TikTok beekeeper’s video, it “built up this false sense of security in me. I think I can control bees too.”

ban sending work emails with the subject line 'Happy Hour' only to reveal it's actually just another Zoom meeting, except ~in the evening~. genuinely enraged. it's nae a fucking 'happy hour' is it, it's just a zoom work meeting outside of reasonable working hours????

Plenty of us have been saying for too long that student evaluations have no place in assessment of people's teaching and that's that on that.

Students in an online class were told they had one of these 2 TAs. But behind the scenes, @EmilyKhazan , left, fulfilled TA duties for all 136 students. When student evaluations came in, though, guess which TA scored higher? #WomeninScience #womeninstem

Ok so I've just found out Screech Owls keep blindsnakes in their homes for the exact same reason we started keeping cats in ours. Owls with pet snakes is today's favourite nature idea.

As an NIH funded postdoc, if I found out my PI was paying another postdoc 1.5x my salary despite being at the same level in the same lab, purely because they had a family and I did not, I would be absolutely livid.

For my junior faculty friends: if a postdoc candidate came to you and said “I’d love to join your lab but you need to pay me 1.5x NIH minimum so I can afford a family” would you say:

my first paper, which was also my first first-author paper, apparently became my first to reach 100 citations today. a small thing! but right now, I need any confidence boost I can get. ... although, the temptation to switch back to anthropocene extinction ecology only grows.

seeing tweets from people working on PhDs about how they should get the same breaks off as undergrads and how labs should be closed during that time and ????? absolutely tf not. what will it take for US-based postgraduate researchers to be treated like they are working a job?

occasionally I am reminded how totally unhinged US academia is when I get emails that say things like 'postdoc appreciation event: 8am-9am!' ... do you know what I would appreciate? Some basic respect for when /reasonable work hours are/. don't make me quote Dolly @ y'all
