I would say escaping from quick sand and escaping from an alligator chasing me were two major concerns in my childhood. LoL, global climate change was maybe not even on the list, for which I will curse the petroleum industry.

Circumhorizontal Arc is fine for it's accuracy, and Fire Rainbow is a whole lot more catchy. I mean, a Pineapple is neither Pine, nor Apple, and we're ok with that.

And there are no ongoing studies, clinical trials, etc regarding the existence or non-existence of god. And of course this IS a "shitpost".
- Comment on Shout out to Eugene V. Debs - the first incarcerated person to run for US President 6 months ago:
"Eugene V. Debs ran, but didn't win.", Captain Obvious. May the next person to run from jail have similar results.
Eugene V. Debs was in an Atlanta penitentiary, serving a ten-year sentence, when he lost the 1920 presidential election. Two years earlier, Debs, a labor leader, had spoken out against America’s involvement in World War I. He was convicted of violating the Espionage Act of 1917, after the prosecution argued that his antiwar speech obstructed military enrollment. The 1920 loss didn’t come as a surprise to Debs, who had run four times before. His fifth and final run, promoted with a campaign button that read “For President Convict No. 9653,” brought him nearly one million votes, says Claire Jerry, curator of political history at the National Museum of American History. President Harding commuted his sentence in December 1921.

In mycology one will hear references to 'lumpers' and 'splitters' taxonomically. That is, do we lump these specimens together, or do we split them into difference groupings. When we look at the genetics, it has been the case that we find that those critters that appear similar may not be those that are related by genes/ evolution. And of course by "we" I mean the larger scientific community, not me and the mouse in my pocket. Oh wait, that's not a mouse it's a shrew. ;-)

Thanks! It's better than anything I came up with. Also saw this: Share your PDF as a Link (https://pdfdeck.com/), which may or may not work. I would think one could put the PDF on NextCloud (or similar), and then share a link from there to a comment here.

UCYN-A (Candidatus Atelocyanobacterium thalassa) is a cyanobacterial symbiont of the unicellular algae Braarudosphaera bigelowii. And yes, it makes N2 into NH3, making that nitrogen fixed and available for B. bigelowii
