In Antarctica, there’s a single-celled foram that’s big enough for you to see and even pick up. And it is possibly the most terrifying predator on Earth. pic.twitter.com/WZUb1vBb13

I would watch a show that was based on true stories of cops fabricating evidence and sending people to jail.

This isn’t a joke tweet.

I think it would gain an enormous audience, both hating & loving it.

More importantly it would serve a public good.

I’m out here preaching that bear conservation is tied to racism and meanwhile ⁦@cschell_canids⁩ is out here in ✨big media✨ suggesting coyote ecology is linked to racism. It’s a movement folks, get on board 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 magazine.washington.edu/feature/ecolog…

This is a GREAT profile and anything mixing ecology/evolution with a social justice lens is my eternal nonfiction #MSWL

Very cool article in Nature Ecology and Evolution that shows that our science is influenced by social norms and is thus not as objective as we'd like to think.

OH at @NMNH: A dad asks his toddler if she’s excited to see the big dinosaurs.

Little girl: I want to see the small dinosaurs

Dad: the small ones?

Little girl: They need people to like them too.

Sarah Olson @ReadMoreScience

I read a lot of popular science books.

Authorship of science nonfiction has a serious diversity problem.

Are you a woman and/or POC and/or LGBTQIA+ individual who loves STEM?

WRITE A BOOK. DO IT. PLEASE.

I will do my best to keep up with reviewing and sharing them! 📚🔬

#MSWL I really want to see nonfiction popular science book proposals by authors from underrepresented groups in my inbox!

“I’m 81 years old, and I’ve been a zoologist since my 20s. My whole concept of the animal kingdom would crash with this ctenophores-first idea." nyti.ms/2yDBU5V

This is EXACTLY my nonfiction #MSWL

Books about evolution and weird animals? Yes, please

The 30,000-foot book is a genre that tries to turn mansplaining into literature.

Should it exist?

This tweet and linked article—my nonfiction #MSWL is the OPPOSITE of these “30,000 foot books”
