I'm Emily. I'm twenty-seven. I'm a molecular biology PhD student and I yell a lot about feminism, Korra, and many other things.

If you make progress on your doctorate degree during the COVID19 pandemic, you get to claim the title of Plague Doctor upon degree completion. True Fact. I don’t make the rules, that’s just how it is.

Are there any cursed sting ray facts? I love them but I know nothing about them

stingrays are cartilaginous fish, like sharks! they don’t have bones but they DO have a softer cartilage structure that actually extends all the way through their fins, meaning that ray skeletons of all kinds look REALLY WILD:

About a quarter of voting members (23%) of the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate are racial or ethnic minorities, making the 117th Congress the most racially and ethnically diverse in history. There has been a long-running trend toward higher numbers of non-White lawmakers on Capitol Hill: This is the sixth Congress to break the record set by the one before it.

Overall, 124 lawmakers today identify as Black, Hispanic, Asian/Pacific Islander or Native American, according to an analysis of data from the Congressional Research Service. This represents a 97% increase over the 107th Congress of 2001-03, which had 63 minority members.

Among today’s senators and representatives, the overwhelming majority of racial and ethnic minority members are Democrats (83%), while 17% are Republicans. This represents a shift from the last Congress, when just 10% of non-White lawmakers were Republicans. Our analysis reflects the 532 voting members of Congress seated as of Jan. 26, 2021.
