  11. 🧠 New study by Asumbisa, Peyrache & Trenholm (2025): Stereo #olfaction underlies stable #coding of #HeadDirection in blind mice. Inhibiting #odor detection in just one nostril, or removing the spatial difference in airflow, disrupts head direction cell tuning and impairs mice’s spatial orientation → stereo smell is essential for using olfactory cues to form a stable, #allocentric sense of direction.

  12. A quotation from Marcus Aurelius

       Do unsavoury armpits and bad breath make you angry? What good will it do you? Given the mouth and armpits the man has got, that condition is bound to produce those odours.
       “After all, though, the fellow is endowed with reason, and he is perfectly able to understand what is offensive if he gives any thought to it.”
       Well and good: but you yourself are also endowed with reason; so apply your reasonableness to move him to a like reasonableness; expound, admonish. If he pays attention, you will have worked a cure, and there will be no need for passion; leave that to actors and streetwalkers.
     
       [Τῷ γράσωνι μήτι ὀργίζῃ, μήτι τῷ ὀζοστόμῳ ὀργίζῃ; τί σοι ποιήσει; τοιοῦτον στόμα ἔχει, τοιαύτας μάλας ἔχει, ἀνάγκη τοιαύτην ἀποφορὰν ἀπὸ τοιούτων γίνεσθαι.
       — ἀλλ̓ ὁ ἄνθρωπος λόγον ἔχει, φησί, καὶ δύναται συννοεῖν ἐφιστάνων τί πλημμελεῖ.
       — εὖ σοι γένοιτο: τοιγαροῦν καὶ σὺ λόγον ἔχεις, κίνησον λογικῇ διαθέσει λογικὴν διάθεσιν, δεῖξον, ὑπόμνησον: εἰ γὰρ ἐπαίει, θεραπεύσεις καὶ οὐ χρεία ὀργῆς.
       Οὔτε τραγῳδὸς οὔτε πόρνη.]

  15. Is there a weird chemical-y smell in #pittsburgh this morning? (Or just squirrel hill?). This is a new one to me, but it makes my sinuses run. It doesn't smell like the usual coke plant or wildfire air goop.

    Maybe we're getting a breeze from the cracker plant?

  17. If MAGA fascist types have a weird biological fear of contracting diseases, that would kind of make sense in an uneducated, ill-informed logic sort of way.

    It doesn't explain why so many got the heebie jeebies around wearing masks during COVID-19 but maybe these weirdos just hate the association they mentally have with masks & disease...?

  19. "Strange odor in SW Washington definitely wasn’t from Mount St. Helens, scientists say"

    The smell was so foul that people immediately thought it was the volcano. However, the scientists traced that strange odor to a certain Max Wells. He apparently let out a fart so stinky that it was smelled for miles. Janice Wells, his wife, tears running down her cheeks from the smell, told reporters, "He had a black bean burrito just before he farted."

  25. Guten Morgen (or good morning😊) #fediverse! Heute mal wieder ein Foto, welches gleich zu 2 hashtags passt, nämlich sowohl zum #makromittwoch als auch zum kommenden #insektensamstag.

    Der Moschusbock (Aromia moschata)
    Dieser nach Moschus „duftende“ Bockkäfer ist der einzige Repräsentant der Gattung Aromia in Europa. Als typischer Vertreter der #Bockkäfer ist der #Moschusbock an der gestreckten Körperform (Länge 20-35 Millimeter) und den langen Fühlern gut zu erkennen. Die Körperfarbe variiert von hellgrün bis nahezu schwarz und weist einen typischen metallischen Glanz auf. Charakteristisch ist der #Moschusgeruch, den die Tiere über ein Sekret aus den Hinterbrustdrüsen absondern können.

    The musk beetle (Aromia moschata)
    This musk-scented longhorned beetle is the only specimen of the genus Aromia in Europe. As a typical representative of the #buck #beetles, the #muskbeetle can be easily recognized by its elongated body shape (length 20-35 millimetres) and long antennae. The body color varies from light green to almost black and has a typical metallic sheen. A characteristic feature is the #musky #odor, which the animals can excrete via a secretion from the rear mammary glands.
