it is not only fucking stupid but also actively dangerous to pretend that anyone who shares your orientation label shares your political cause and is a safe individual in community with you

to all my researchers, students and people in general who love learning: if you don't know this already, i'm about to give you a game changer

connectedpapers

the basic rundown is: you use the search bar to enter a topic, scientific paper name or DOI. the website then offers you a list of papers on the topic, and you choose the one you're looking for/most relevant one. from here, it makes a tree diagram of related papers that are clustered based on topic relatability and colour-coded by time they were produced!

for example: here i search "human B12"

i go ahead and choose the first paper, meaning my graph will be based around it and start from the topics of "b12 levels" and "fraility syndrome"

here is the graph output! you can scroll through all the papers included on the left, and clicking on each one shows you it's position on the chart + will pull up details on the paper on the right hand column (title, authors, citations, abstract/summary and links where the paper can be found)

you get a few free graphs a month before you have to sign up, and i think the free version gives you up to 5 a month. there are paid versions but it really depends how often you need to use this kinda thing.

researchrabbit works similarly. you do need to create an account to use it, but it is completely free (as far as I know), meaning no limits to your collections/graphs.

Need a little fluff to brighten your day? Meet the striped hyena (Hyaena hyaena)! When disturbed, this critter can raise the hairs on its back, doubling in size to intimidate foes. Found in parts of Africa and Asia, it prefers open habitats like savannas and scrublands. This hyena is typically a scavenger that feeds on carrion, but it also supplements its diet with fruits, seeds, and leaves.
