You get to keep one memory from your personal past. This is the provocative premise from which Chris McCarroll (National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University) begins his post at The Memory Palace today. A great read! #philsky #philscisky

The Memory Palace@philmemopalace.bsky.social · last yr.

If you could hold on to just a single memory, just one episode from your personal past, what would it be? Today at the Memory Palace, Chris McCarroll investigates this exciting question about personal memory. A highly recommended reading! open.substack.com/pub/thememor...

Registration for GEM 2025 closes on 30.04.25. Bochum has a reputation for being grey and dull (due to the coal and steel industry), but in fact it is far from it. Currently the cherry blossoms are in bloom and by June greenery will abound. Photo credits: @sencheng.bsky.social

Why Pigeons Make Bad Nests: A defense of pigeon aesthetics

A six-panel comic. In panel 1, there's a pigeon standing awkwardly next to a pile of sticks with two eggs on it, and the panel is titled "Why pigeons make bad nests: A defense of pigeon aesthetics." In panel 2, a pigeon sits on a pile of sticks: "Many people think that pigeons are bad at making nests. Here are three good reasons why pigeon nests look bad." In panel 3, there's "Reason 1: Some birds, like orioles, nest in tree branches, so they weave elaborate structures that can withstand the elements..." And there's a female Baltimore Oriole weaving an elaborate hanging nest in a silver maple tree. In panel 4, "...but rock pigeons evolved to nest in crevices in cliffs, safely tucked away." And there's a pigeon sitting on a nest in a hole in a cliff. In panel 5, "Reason 2: People domesticated pigeons ages ago. Pigeons didn't need fancy nests because they had human-built homes." A beautiful dovecote shelters a flock of pigeons. In panel 6, "Reason 3: Less time making nest = more time eating seed." A pigeon pecks a seed near its nest, and says "It's called math."
