Pretty regularly I try to recall "what's that book with the plot about XYZ, it was so ingenious" and then I remember that XYZ was merely some auxiliary fun-fact side-story aspect of @adapalmer.bsky.social's world in Too Like The Lightning (and the main plots are even more extraordinary)
Still time to get the "Too Like the Lightning" ebook for $2.99 today in the goldbox sale: www.amazon.com/Too-Like-Lig...

New #paleoart on #FossilFriday: #Tiktaalik sees the world. Discussions of early #tetrapods often focus on limbs and lungs, but major changes also took place in their eyes. Seeing further and clearer than any animal before, they were the first to clearly see sunsets, stars, and the moon. #sciart

This is amazing and moves scientific publishing into the modern age in a MAJOR way. @qedscience.bsky.social by @odedrechavi.bsky.social and team, and planyourscience.com by @kordinglab.bsky.social, are my gamechanging life-hack recommendations for all scientists!
