In Original Sin, Dr. Harden explores the relationship between control, blame, and biology. Addressing the uneasy space where human biology meets behavior, Harden calls us to reexamine our views of accountability, punishment, and forgiveness. #scicomm #biology #science #bigbiology

Big Biology guest Ludovic Orlando talks about the first time horses were domesticated. The Botai people were hunter gatherers who started to keep captive horses. He says this choice was likely due to environmental conditions that made the horse population smaller in the area where the Botai hunted.

Massie’s bill exposed 2 dozen CEOs and world leaders in 6 months. He had 7 months left, so the GOP panicked, blasted voters with fake AI deepfakes to destroy his credibility, and shut him down. They are actively protecting the worst monsters on earth, and they just proved it.

Look at all of that land, look at all of that livestock, look at that beautiful sunset. And they want to destroy that to build a data center. For surveilling us and pushing AI so they can replace us? Fuck Kevin O'Leary. FUCK DATA CENTERS. We must push back. Credit: @tenilletaggart.bsky.social
