Well done! :)
BEHOLD THE FLAGSHIP PAPER OF MY PHD! 🚢 I trained wild and zoo housed Guinea baboons to pull a lever for peanuts to test whether they monitored the foraging skills of others and used the information to inform their social choices 🧵 (1/9) royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...

I'm kickstarting a TTRPG, starting today! It's a card-drawing heist game (no dice), good for one-shots, and high-stakes Ocean's 11 style play.

The fnding is all or nothing, so if you back, you only pay if I reach my humble £600 goal.

Go on, support it!

Who would have guessed that open access and open science non-profits such as @archive.org and @cos.io are useful just in case your government want to delete scientific data?
