Elegans by hand-annotating thousands of microscopic thin-slice images. In 1986, after a year-long delay due to the team's submitted paper being over four times their usual 100-page limit, the royal society published it, and a new branch of science was born: connectomics.

I'm gonna say it, I do think that even the laziest person imaginable should have a roof over their head, food in their stomach, and access to healthcare
Knowing from a young age that you have same-sex attraction IS more difficult to deal with than coming out later in life. Oh so you think dating a woman later in life and coming to terms with that is hard? Imagine being a CHILD at 12 and realising this. Feeling alienated from your classmates and even adults in hetero relationships because you know you can never be like them. Feeling a sense of shame and guilt over your homosexuality because you are ‘different’ and can’t bond over crushes with your friends because you are a different sexuality to them and they would think you’re gross for finding girls attractive. Feeling hopeless because you don’t know anyone like yourself and feeling alone in the world. The children that are put in conversation therapy. The children that are kicked out of their home.
I’m tired of bisexuals that have been in relationships with men and then realising they like women in their twenties, thirties, even forties like it’s this big deal when you were perfectly fine in your hetero marriage until you decide you actually want a woman to experiment with because you’re bored.
We are not the same.

That one tweet that was like "we should scrap 95% of feminist theory so far because it's transphobic and wh*rephobic" vs that one post that was like "women are never allowed to build a literary/religious/theoretical canon for themselves because it's always forcibly reinvented every 30 years, women have no connection to or knowledge of feminist theory that has been formulated for literal centuries, all the while males have their revered Enlightenment philosophers and their Aristotle and Socrates and nobody is taking them away from men no matter how society changes or how "problematic" they were" and I'm too tired to formulate this more coherently but the truth is women and feminism are always suspended on thin ice with no celebrated intellectual heritage and tradition despite the fact that it obviously exists, and this is such a huge way women are alienated and disempowered

WTF ?🤯
Tracy Chapman 1999
PCOS is getting a new, actually accurate name!!!
dozens of doctors from around the world have contributed to "an unprecedented, rigorous, multistep global consensus process for the name change".
this consensus has been years in the making, and i'm so excited to see how this change will impact women's health: increasing diagnosis rates, expressing the severity of the condition, widening the scope of treatment methods, etc. it's such a relief to finally see our health be taken seriously, and to see a condition only we suffer from treated with a level of empathy we've never been given before.
here is the full consensus statement. it outlines the multiple reasons behind this name change, and details every step taken in this process, including how they went about choosing the new name. it's a fascinating read, and really shows how much care was put into this.
Rightwingers/conservatives/Republicans/tories/etc can't be TERFS. Right wing ideology is fundamentally opposed to radical feminism. They can be gender critical, sure (though I would argue they are quite the opposite of that). And they certainly can be and most oftentimes ARE transphobic. But it is impossible to be a radical feminist and right wing.
Rightwingers, conservatives and Republicans who call themselves gender critical are so stupid because what are you critical of? Trans ideology? Okay, are you going to stop dressing your daughter in pink dresses and stop telling her she'll make a great house wife while you tell your son he'll be a great musician/astronaut/teacher/lawyer whatever? Are you as a conservative/republican/right-wing woman going to stop shaving since there literally no valid or health benefiting reason to do so? No? You're going to continue doing the traditional misogynistic gender roles while you call out trans people for doing the same thing you're doing but opposite? Okay then....
i should be allowed to kill people based on how they talk about lesbians

One of the things that still hurts me deeply about hair removal culture is the loss of innocence. I was sitting in a shopping centre today having a drink and I saw this little girl, maybe around 8 or 9 with her mum and older sister, I think Turkish, and she had this glitzy little tank top on, probably dressing up for he last day of school since it's school holidays now. She had visible dark hair up to her shoulders and on her lower back and she was running around playing with her sister without a care in the world, just looking so happy and free and I felt a pang in my heart, I was both so happy and so sad for her. I thought about the last time I was unaware of my body hair or of my body at all, and I can't even remember it. I remember being 7 or 8 and messing around with the sink when washing my paintbrushes at school and one of the kids pointed out how dark the hair on my arms was when it got wet. And since then I couldn't stop noticing it and how much darker and more visible it was than everyone elses, even the boys, especially whenever I had to put on a tshirt for P.E. or a dress in the summer. And I remember going home one day and trying to cut all my arm hair off with a pair of craft scissors and my mum found out and was so angry because she thought that I since cut the hair it was going to grow back even thicker and darker and that I was going to look like a freak (her exact words - thanks mum). So she started waxing my 8 year old arms with hot wax even though it burnt my skin. Then when I was 10 she started waxing my legs. Then my underarms, then my bikini line, and when I was 17 she tried to persuade me to get a brazilian wax.
The world is just so messed up for little girls, it's like no one cares that you're a child, you're a female first so you have to fit the standard of beauty from childhood at whatever cost. It's like a curse, as soon as you become aware of some new 'flaw' you can't unsee it or stop thinking about it and you're expected to 'fix' it. And it's getting even worse with the rise of even more ridiculous beauty standards and procedures and social media and now we're seeing 14 year olds with anti aging routines. I genuinely feel like the destruction of innocence as a girl is such a scarring experience, you stop being a relatively carefree and happy child who is unaware of the expectations of beauty and start having to become a 'girl'
Brazilian waxes especially should be made illegal, and while I know that would never happen, they need to at least be made illegal for anyone under 18.
People need to recognize that instilling fear in half the population over their natural body hair is a form of psychological abuse.
Just wondering why it's a felony to buy an organ from a living donor or give them a financial, career-related, or other type of gift in exchange for them donating an organ (a law that was set up to protect people from being coerced into donating their organs), but surrogacy does not yet have the same regulation. In case anyone wanted to know
i get angry at any leftist sentiment expressed through the language of sexually dominating a woman. i have no respect for "fucking your wife" rhetoric nor do i find it funny and the fact that it's so common within leftism disgusts me
I can’t believe some people really think that if you’re against porn and prostitution, then you’re also against sex. Painting us as conservative puritan bitches is just a lazy way of ignoring what we’re saying.
When a feminist says “We are against sexual exploitation and abuse,” and a man responds, “So you hate sex?” he has just given you vital information about himself.

Not to mention the normalization of 12, 16, and 24 hour shifts in the medical field, as well as there being no legal recourse to refuse being mandated to stay beyond 24 hours when you don't have relief.
Worker abuse, systemic medical abuse, and ableism all in one go.
My classmates that are in the nursing major are constantly talking about how egregiously brutal their education is and I'm over here like,
speaking as someone who has a REALLY hard time feeling safe in a doctor's office, I would have more peace of mind if the people with power over me weren't psychologically tortured for years to qualify for the job
programs like that are selecting for the people that are willing to internalize toxic ideas about suffering, listening to their body, and setting boundaries
aka the last people on Earth I want to be touching me
We learn how to be cruel by being shown cruelty. We learn how to be merciful by being shown mercy.
