I was surprised many years ago to find that I could wag my tail (coccyx).
Incidental discovery due to explorations of yoga, Pilates, etc.
The work heralded @Nature as ‘On the genetic basis of tail-loss evolution in humans’ nature.com/articles/s41586-0… has a number of issues that question the headline and make the conclusion misleading 1/n

We won a thing:
“Best Paper Engaged in Quantitative Description on an Under-studied Phenomenon”
from @journalqd
Here’s the original thread on the paper (where we kind of ‘discovered’ that BTS and K-pop were taking over).
Fandoms matter and fandoms are everywhere.
New paper thread!
“Fame and Ultrafame: Measuring and comparing daily levels of ‘being talked about' for United States' presidents, their rivals, God, countries, and K-pop”
