On the cover of the new PaleoAnthropology issue!
Excited to share this new #OpenAccess pub. It completely overturns our understanding of...nothing. It won't be in your newsfeed. Sometimes #science advances by basic, gut-it-out research. Would love comments about our approach to fossil alpha-taxonomy.

I cannot convey enough how grateful I am to the millions of you all supporting us with your time, resources, and energy.

Your support has allowed us to rally people together at record scale to organize their communities.

All with an average donation of $21.

THANK YOU & Pa’lante 🙏🏽♥️
News: AOC had her strongest ever quarter, raising over $9.5m from 266k individual donors for an average of just $21.

AOC doesn’t take a dollar from lobbyists or corporate PACS. Our top donor professions are teachers and nurses. 64% were first time contributors.
