A bit from my dissertation fieldwork on the 'Back-to-the-Future' potential for local transmission of #Aedes #aegypti -transmitted viruses in #eThekwini (#Durban) and urban coastal KZN, South Africa. samj.org.za/index.php/samj… #envhist #twitterstorians #vector #DENV #CHIKV #ZIKV #BU
Remco could be a dynamite super-domestique for Florian Lipowitz in next year’s Tour. Chapeau to Remco, he can become a rich team’s version of Ilan van Wilder. 👏
This rest day is a good day for Tim Wellens to renegotiate his contract. If he ‘downed tools’ right now The Bees would feast on Curried G.O.A.T. by the Tour’s end. #TDF25
One year later . . . cycling fans bullying Jumbo-Visma into letting Sepp Kuss win the ‘23 Vuelta looks extraordinarily anomalous (and IMO a little shabby). #GCKuss was fun at the time, but for cycling history I’d rather that GT win was on the palmares of Jonas or Rogla.
Pathetic that this @EuroHoody article re: @UCI (in)action vs. Russia, after 2 days, has only 4 comments. Doubly so now that slimy @FIFAcom has acted. The barest minimum is no sport-washing race exposure for Gazprom, an entity entangled with Putin’s foreign policy objectives.
Analysis: How should the UCI and the cycling community react to the Russian invasion of the Ukraine? Russian invasion of Ukraine provoked quick indignation from many major sport governing bodies, and the UCI vows no events in Russia. ow.ly/c2Cl50I4Mtg

One 120km ride in, very impressed with the Arctic 3 Overshoe from @galibiervelo — well thought out, well-executed, and reasonably priced.
What a nice surprise. Thanks, @myHUECU!

Kinda weird how the party of "law and order" seems largely uninterested in any form of accountability for an attempted coup against the United States government.
Republicans see the evidence of Trump’s culpability as proof that they should ignore the evidence.
The AHA has issued a statement condemning the #1776Report. “Written hastily....without any consultation with professional historians of the United States, the report fails to engage a rich and vibrant body of scholarship" from the past 70 years. historians.org/news-and-advoc…
Let’s say it again... Studying history will sometimes disturb you. Studying history will sometimes upset you. Studying history will sometimes make you furious. If studying history always makes you feel proud and happy, you probably aren’t studying history.
First hilarity: This says flat out that it is a "definitive chronicle of the American founding." It is 20 pages long. There are neither footnotes nor end notes.
Criticize it all you like, the 1619 project is light years closer to the facts of American history than whatever White House just published, which reads at the level of a sixth grade book report and that’s if I’m being generous.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be . . .
There's something seductively exculpatory about the narrative that the virus is gaining sophisticated new powers, and our problems trace to a change in a base in a receptor binding domain. Not to get all M. Night Shyamalan here but the problem is still us.
Pence has no courage and virtually all Republicans have no moral compass. So the vote to impeach on Monday is about laying down a marker about presidential crime, but even more it is about forcing the Republicans to vote no. They have many miserable excuses but make them vote!
I hope that everyone taking videos and photos is saving this footage. This is evidence and coup supporters who are storming the Capitol, trespassing, looting, and committing assault must be held accountable.
Interviews with 31 epidemiologists, health experts and public officials offer clues: L.A. was far more vulnerable to an extreme crisis than nearly anywhere else in the nation. latimes.com/california/sto…
