We finally got some hopeful news about vaquita last fall, but now Mexico is considering re-introducing gillnets into their habitat. This would ensure eventual extinction, we can't let this happen. Please share and send emails, letters, etc to Mexican representatives to stop this. #SaveTheVaquita

It’s not supporting the troops to send them off to kill and die in an illegal war of aggression whose purpose is to make sure that their votes don’t count.

congress sounds cool i wish it was real

The morally bankrupt Trump administration has partnered with another morally bankrupt authoritarian to declare an unprovoked war on Iran, already killing scores of civilians. We need an immediate vote from Congress on a War Powers Resolution. Then articles of impeachment.

I'm already sick of "It's all a distraction from Epstein" replies. This regime is killing innocent people because our leaders are all power-hungry tyrants and war profiteers. When you say it's "just a distraction" you minimize the gravity of what's happening and the lives lost.

AIPAC has already gone underground in some races, understanding their name is a penalty. The real issue is Israel. It’s the support for a state whose entire raison d’etre is ethnoracial and religious supremacy. That exists through apartheid & genocide. And to that too people are finally waking up.

I know this feels pointless but everyone has to call their congressional reps and say they oppose war with Iran and they oppose Trump illegally starting one without congressional approval — both congresscalllist.com

Oooh I know some folks are mad as hell.

Here are the Top 5 Dogs of the week!

It's International Polar Bear Day tomorrow (the 27th)--let's do some studies and talk about these amazing critters! www.twitch.tv/kaseysnowart We'll look at people's studies at the end of stream! #polarbears #Internationalpolarbearday

Our federal government killed a disabled genocide survivor and is covering up for a child rapist. And that is just today’s news. It is just unconscionable to be treating this as normal or acceptable in any way. www.investigativepost.org/2026/02/25/b...

vindictive, vicious cruelty designed to humiliate and criminalize every trans person in kansas horrifying fascist shit reminiscent of the runup to the literal holocaust

If I was an opposition party (@democrats), I think I would've told my party to respond to Trump's heckling (they knew would happen) with unified chants of "pedophile" and "liar", you know he would've imploded and ended within 25 minutes. Instead of literal silence minus 2 brave women.

FYI, this grant program is open to anyone communicating science. It does not require that you went to school for science. You could be a Ph.D. student, an artist, a community organizer, a teacher, or any other profession. As long as you are communicating science IRL in the US, you're eligible.

In honor of the Year of the Fire Horse, we're doing fire studies to warm up at #TheArtGym this morning! Come draw with me for accountability! www.twitch.tv/kaseysnowart

Setting up the new studio space today! Come check it out and keep me company while I move in. www.twitch.tv/kaseysnowart Will probably go through some old art at some point to while organizing, so come get a peek if you want!

This is one of those moments like illegitimate supreme court justices that will affect us for decades. If you haven't called your reps lately, please muster the energy and time. Capitol switchboard for all states: 202-224-3121

I would ask people to call or message their senators about this and specifically that Vinay Prasad needs to be out at FDA. Even the Wall Street Journal has said as much. There is push back. Companies won’t fund clinical trials if they can’t trust the FDA.

We're gonna need a bigger Hague

Now is the time to start organizing groups of people who will help ensure that if ICE does surround the polls ALL American citizens who want to can access those polls in the midterms and beyond. Just like during the Civil Rights Era.

People will come to regret BlueSky’s “let’s all follow rare bug professors!” fad. It’s all fine until we start posting the botflies.

🚨 UT Austin is planning to shutter its African and African Diaspora Studies (AADS); Mexican American and Latina/o Studies (MALS); Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies (WGSS); and American Studies departments. 👇 aaup-texas.org/blog/f/ut-au...

In a normal government, this results in the resignation of multiple cabinet officials (Transportation, Defense, and Homeland Security), and the closure or (at least!) radical reorg of the cartoonishly incompetent agency at the center of it: CBP. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/11/u...

So any married women who changed her name at any time wouldn’t be allowed to vote under this act, because her last name doesn’t match the name on her birth certificate. This is straight up disenfranchisement of female voters. Period.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

On Monday evening, Rachel Maddow spotlighted this group working out of Baltimore. Just another in a long list of unsung, American heroes. Donate to their project! www.thebanner.com/community/lo...

We’re with you all the way, Amber. 💙💛 It takes strength and courage to stand up for what’s right.

Brandi Carlile's accompaniment for "America the Beautiful" before the game last night was SistaStrings. The duo, Chauntee and Monique Ross, played another American anthem, "Lift Every Voice and Sing," on the Library's Stradivarius instruments in 2024. Here's a clip of that impromptu performance. ⬇️

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

ok, I think we all need a dose of adorableness today like a NEWBORN GIRAFFE www.sltrib.com/news/2026/01...

These farm workers are preparing for the strawberry harvest. They're weeding & removing the runners (leafless stems) that can steal nutrients from the plants. This step will also make it easier for workers to move efficiently and harvest more during the harvest season. #WeFeedYou

Drawing little primates today: Marmosets & Tamarins! www.twitch.tv/kaseysnowart I am notoriously avoidant when it comes to drawing primates...trying to work on that! We'll show off studies at the end of stream!

but if we get rid of the unaccountable and unrestrained murderous criminal gang that's acting as an ethnic cleansing paramilitary force for a demented Nazi authoritarian, who will keep the streets safe?

Chocobo! Spacesuit! 🐥

Many people have wondered why the Chien-Shiung Wu never won the Nobel Prize for Physics. New findings from the Nobel archives, exclusively revealed in Physics World, show she was nominated 23 times by 18 different physicists - and yet was still left empty-handed. 🧪⚛️ physicsworld.com/a/twenty-thr...

"It does seem like people are generally less healthy and less safe when ICE raids happen" @sciencevs.bsky.social First half is on the science of what tear gas does to the human body (what we know is not good) Second half is the impact of ICE raids on communities. TL;DR our govt is torturing us

Green Day and Bad Bunny are about to put MAGA into a bad place a week from today and I love that for everyone involved. 🫡

Please don’t turn the Epstein files into a joke. This is real for survivors. Many former victims are realizing for the first time they were used by a system. How this is discussed online matters. Tread carefully.

Biometric locks for phones aren’t just convenient for you, they are convenient for the cops. “explicitly authorized law enforcement personnel to obtain Natanson’s phone and both hold the device in front of her face and to forcibly use her fingers to unlock it” theintercept.com/2026/01/30/w...

This article is a very good example of why "more training" and "more vetting" isn't the answer. Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez joined Border Patrol in 2018 and 2014 respectively. These aren't new agents. www.propublica.org/article/alex...

Democrat Taylor Rehmet won a Texas state Senate election in a reliably Republican district that Trump won by 17 points in 2024

They’re taking kids from Minnesota and sending them to detention camps. They’re shooting American citizens in the street and locking investigators out of the crime scenes. The world is watching what happens next.
