sciatrixI need to finish carefully checking my sound chambers component by component and I need to catch up on my emails and grade my kids' homework but also I want to write about
-money, funding, and fandom; figuring out how to write about taking money and the different comfort levels people have with asking and discomfort around open asking for support and things and also, not coincidentally, trying to reopen my patreon in a way that does not make my skin crawl with shame and terror that I am not providing Enough;
-leptin and cortisol, and why stress and energy balance and satiety are likely to intersect
-leptin generally, and what all pies my buddy hormone has its fingers in that we know of
-this one really cool study I found about spotted female hyena social/sexual dynamics and how matriarchy is heavily influenced by matrilocality and long-running social bonds among hyenas within bands
-my ongoing building irritation with the way autism and disability have been getting discussed on metafilter and the metadiscussion I am extremely tempted to kick off, and figuring out how to workshop
...all of which could be thousand word pieces or more. Asghfl. But the sound chambers don't work, and I need an inventory of why so I can tell my PI that we need to order more amps so I can make them work again.

I've heard one theory for the immense differences in social structure between chimpanzees and bonobos is that bonobos have very strong bonds between females and use them to control the rest of the group, whereas chimpanzee hierarchies are heavily male-dominated. I wonder if a useful comparison could be made between them and hyenas.
