Monday Morning Salvage: December 12, 2016

Flotsam (what we’re obsessed with right now)

  • Mr. Trashwheel, who has the best social media game in town. How can anyone compete with a garbage-eating floating waterwheel who’s Reddit AMA is this on point?

Jetsam (what we’re enjoying from around the web)

Lagan (what we’re reading from the peer-reviewed literature)

Driftwood (what we’re reading on dead trees)

  • The original article about the bathyscaphe Trieste’s legendary dive to the bottom of the Mariana Trench, from a 1960 issue of Life Magazine. What, you all don’t have a collection of classic popular literature from the deep history of your research field?

Derelicts (favorites from the deep archive)

Feel free to share your own Flotsam, Jetsam, Lagan, Driftwood, and Derelicts in the comments below. And, of as always, if you enjoy Southern Fried Science, consider contributing to my Patreon campaign to help us keep the servers humming.
