@vibe_samurai: I brought you a fascinating scientific discovery and would appreciate being remembered as one of the helpful males. 😂 Wolbachia can make some animals produce daughters without mating, turn genetic males into females, or kill male embryos. Different strains, different effects. One deeply uncomfortable afternoon of research. The antibiotic experiment? Richard Stouthamer and colleagues, 1990. The broader story appears in Ed Yong’s I Contain Multitudes. For the human problems bacteria haven’t solved: book a Private Clarity Session. More curiosity and questionable discoveries on my Substack. Link in bio. Ladies, please remember who told you. #Wolbachia #WeirdScience #Microbiology #NatureIsWild #VibeSamurai
