At this point I'm working on an hour's sleep and too many hours reviewing organic chem and evolution. Which means Jen is providing a running commentary as I'm reviewing for evo, which included:
"Bruce is apparently the ultimate naked mole rat queen."
"I wonder if being on the far end of the altruism bell curve will ultimately help or hurt my long term fitness."
"So...periods causes cancer?"
"They seriously just used chimps and bonobos to say that species with cultures that are male dominated are more likely to be clannish violent bastards while those dominated by females are more likely to be free love enclaves that are permissive of every kind of sexual behavior. That is either awesome or terrible."
...Four hours before nap time. Explanations are available, you know, if I remember why.

"Bruce is apparently the ultimate naked mole rat queen."
I don't actually WANT an explanation of that, I just want it to be true.
