- ysofunny 3y agoback in the day that was called the tithe. the real original tithe. the voluntary tithe. but that all went sideways when they made it mandatory and rebranded it as "taxes". sorry, I may still be hung up on a twitter response about taxation so I'm a bit jumpy about it
- ysofunny 3y agoor maybe what I cannot get over is the living within lingering legacy of having had your "own" culture be made up so you can be exploited then realizing this, and finally (forever) being ostracized by peers for not going with the grain
- Joel_Mckay 3y agoPeople often go into academia for the wrong reasons, and many universities have adapted to cater to new priorities. Often science takes on an orthogonal role to the politics, marketing, and irrational competition. Private sector business is far less of a pain, but still requires strategy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXXKqwrEql4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXXKqwrEql4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVkLVRt6c1U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVkLVRt6c1U Best of luck, =3

- dhosek 3y agoSifakas are among my favorite lemurs (which is not to say that they’re not all my favorite lemurs). It is so adapted to arboreal life that on the ground, it moves by hopping sideways. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verreaux%27s_sifaka https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verreaux%27s_sifaka for an animated gif showing this.

- gweinberg 3y agoI had never heard of fosa, so I looked them up. It turns out it is usually spelled fossa, and as well as lemurs they also eat tenrecs.

- whyenot 3y agoHere in the US there has been the problem of endangered sea lions eating endangered salmon below the Bonneville Dam. The salmon are easy pickings for the sea lions because they tend to collect below the dam as the migrate upriver to spawn. https://www.npr.org/2008/05/06/90213669/endangered-seals-eating-endangered-salmon https://www.npr.org/2008/05/06/90213669/endangered-seals-eat...
