wow i thought the c elegans community had a good sense of humor,,,, guess I was wrong
never forget that long history of c elegans community fighting for it's rights, especially important during July aka C elegans History Month 
"talking shit about the worm"
a true ally to the worm
let's all pitch in for an edible arrangements apology for the worm
pls someone release me from this timeline
I just want to remind everyone that the original joke was eisen calling worms boring bc they just wiggle around & fuck themselves, which itself is a response to a twitter prompt asking for the most overrated animal on a site where scis freq make fun of each other's study animals
there are,,,, a lot of layers here
if i ever become editor of a journal (lol), i hope all my tweets about how boring vertebrates are don't come back to cancel me
pls someone tell the worm people to stop, even if they are joking at this point we can't tell and it's making it worse
doubling down on main I see
I'm really not getting joy in any of this, but leaving the main thread where you were called out and tweeting things like this on main is,,,
if I tweet a worm pic will the worm people stop?
oh god
also wow, none of my tweets were featured how rude 😉
no locker room talk* here on academic twitter 😤
*saying "fuck"
*saying "fuck"
A lot of people are sharing this thread for a worm Discourse recap, but it doesn't include some of the earlier replies, which I think are important
*important to document here
this is comforting
how many cuts to the center of a c elegans?
I would once again like to remind you that the joke was about how boring and overrated c elegans is bc they just wiggle around and fuck themselves (bc they're hermaphrodites)
