@Ferretsyndicate if people dying and living shorter lives due to lack of health care isn't an actual emergency, what the fuck is
Horseshoe crabs, spidery shaped things, evolution, node shift
Recent paper shaking things up! Xiphosura, or horseshoe crabs (fig1), as the sister group to arachnids, which is to say that whatever animal all arachnids evolved from, its closest relative was the ancestor of horseshoe crabs.
This new analysis suggests that XIphosura is actually nested within arachnids and their closest relatives are the Ricinulei (Fig2).
This new placement means that either there was multiple terrestrialization events for arachnids OR horseshoe crabs are a terrestrial lineage that returned to the water.
Heres a link to the abstract, the paper is unfortunately paywalled: https://academic.oup.com/sysbio/advance-article-abstract/doi/10.1093/sysbio/syz011/5319972
@danishcookies society condoning domestic violence is also a factor in mass shootings, as nearly every mass shooter has a record of committing domestic violence.
@hezekiah Gun control has been used by conservatives to attack the Black Panther. Do not buy into this rhetoric. The problem of shootings in the US stems from much more serious consequences in terms of mental health care, racism and fetishism and commercialization of guns.
