[THREAD] This #WomensHistoryMonth, let's not forget how many of our rights were only won in recent decades, and weren’t given by asking nicely and waiting.
We need to fight for our rights.
Here's are a few examples:
ALT Digital illustration of a woman with thick curly hair trying to access an ATM. Text reads, “Before 1974… women weren’t allowed to have a bank account or apply for credit by themselves.”

The academic study industrial complex is a sad sector.
So many people who might otherwise be productive are participating in this often fraudulent machine, just churning out junk science after junk science.
The incentives on all sides are totally whack. Publishers want fees, academics want noteriety and tenure. Nowhere in there is there a very strong incentive for truth and discipline. Just some tangential reputational incentive.

Les Balears, la comunitat que més s'ha empobrit aquest segle.
Fins quan el mantra de que el turisme genera riquesa?
Despertarem alguna vegada o seguirem sent esclaus d'un sistema econòmic pervers, que només ens aporta pobresa, problemes socials i crisi ambiental?

Fresh off the (online) press in Aggression and Violent Behavior! We charted the cell types and mollecules most commonly linked to aggression in human adults. Results are all over the place, but hopefully this can help researchers know where to look next:

🧵Why do people with psychopathic traits stick to maladaptive patterns of behaviour?
The answer: a cognitive rigidity mechanism prompts them to ignore new evidence and maintain prior expectations in pain learning situations. 1/3
