An attorney representing Commanders QB Jayden Daniels informed LSU it can no longer use his name, image and likeness and said he felt "profoundly disrespected" after LSU allowed cornerback DJ Pickett to wear his former No. 5 jersey. spr.ly/6011B1PTDb

Urgent: I have learned that they plan to start a new year *right after* this one. Please call/write your representatives, this is not a drill

I aspire to be as creative and open hearted and brilliant as Amy. If you want audio that makes people stop in their tracks and listen—audio that makes the world a better, richer place —hire her.
Hello from the other side! 👋After working there for 29 years 👵, @WNYC laid me off 🪓
I wasn’t alone. So, so many talented hosts, producers and editors were laid off, too!
It was fun while it lasted! Send cat pics. (And job offers.)

<hidden camera whisper voice> someone on the #OSIRISREx recovery team has secretly swapped the sample container with one containing Folgers Crystals. Let's see if anyone notices.

Public radio frens! Next week I'll be at the PRPD conference in Philadelphia. If you're there and want to chat about science, or maybe just go on a snack hunt together, say hi!

The humble but brilliant daddy-long-legs features in today’s What the duck?! Podcast with @jones_ann. Is it really the most venomous spider and just can’t bite?

Hello ento-Twitter! I need some Cryptocercus for my research, would anyone in/near the Appalachians be interested in a little collaboration and be able to help this Arizona grad student get her hands on some wood roaches??

Two paths diverged in a wood, and I -
I knew that they came back together on the far side of that bush,
And that it would make no difference.

Nice find! The six-spotted tiger beetle (Cicindela sexguttata) is a common predator throughout eastern North America. Like little insect velociraptors, they're super fast and eat anything they can catch (they don't hunt in packs, though, but if they did that'd be WAY cool).

I have discovered a planet. Something vast walks there, enduring the springtime. What a beautiful planet.
