Did you know that the bees that need saving are NOT honeybees? Honeybees are the dairy cows of bees. People brought them over from Europe to make us honey. The problem with honeybees, esp in resource-limited ecosystems (like hey! cities!) is that they compete with our native bees for food.

Had our first group meeting yesterday with the H.A. Brown Principal & Nick (the artist!) The school is psyched. I'm going to talk about pollinators next week, & have the kids vote on their favorite bug! We have a wall! We have a plan! We just need a little more funding 😅 givebutter.com/KenzoMural

Multicultural relationships are beautiful because now we dip our pastrami sandwiches in matzah ball soup like its consommé

My coworker has named our new printer Squid and I had absolutely nothing to do with it I swear

Things are still scary and uncertain here in Minnesota but the community is strong and so is our love #iceoutcomics #iceoutmlps

I’ve been drawing my migraines since I was a child and decided to put them altogether to talk about my history with migraines and how many others are also affected by this invisible disability 🧵

Might be a good time to remember that each of us is profoundly annoying to someone.

Marty Supreme and Uncut Gems. Josh Safdie makes the most incredible uncomfortable movies. I hate them but cant deny they are good at the same time. But NEVER again.

Would be extremely sick to get this to 5k by bedtime tonight

Are you an early career biologist seeking a position (Masters up to faculty)? I have talked to so many people who feel alone, like they don't have resources, or who are seeking community during this difficult time in the job market. I created a Discord community to help. discord.gg/nmktHJhUPH

I am never going to get over the fact thar so many Americans died that corpses stacked up in nursing homes and hospital morgues, that refrigerator trucks had to be brought in for the overflow, and that the big takeaway from Important Pundits is there should have been *less* mitigation.

Ted Lieu: “Donald Trump is in the Epstein files thousands and thousands of times. In those files, there are highly disturbing allegations of Donald Trump raping children … of Donald Trump threatening to kill children. So I encourage the press to go look at these allegations.”

Not my horses… But I have to point out that these have not stayed unchanged for millions of years! doi.org/10.3389/fear...

When we started @lingthusiasm.com, we benefitted from grad school funding that let us cover a few startup costs, and we recognize that not everyone has those resources That's why in 2020, @superlinguo.bsky.social and I started the LingComm Grants, to help up-and-coming linguistics communicators

Constantly switching healthcare providers, i love getting diagnosed, with ADHD over and over and over again. Incredibly affirming as a late diagnosis individual. Like wow if only someone had thought to do this 20 years earlier.

Wanna see what projects were funded last year? I just published a post about them this morning! Everything is bleak as hell right now. If you want a pick me up, read this post. It's gonna warm your heart. www.patreon.com/posts/scienc... (anybody can read this, it's not paywalled or anything)

Converting my partner’s music taste is officially complete. He loves American Football and wants to plan a trip to see them. Everything has gone according to plan

Ive never experienced so many health services try to scam me out of money as I have living in Texas. I have to call for EVERY charge because they ALWAYS overcharge me. This is exhausting.

The demons told me to make this I had no say in the matter

Hey definitely call your senators about this. Like seriously.

Talking myself off the edge of getting matching shrimp tramp stamps with @invertebabe.bsky.social

Best case scenario for scientists named in the files is they threw away their morals for the possibility of funding. And we should absolutely shame tf out of them for it. Science becomes villainous without our morals and ethics. Never give them up.

Sorry for the preview pic in your feed, but we've posted a thoughtful story by @dangaristo.bsky.social that delves into the tangled web of relationships between Jeffrey Epstein and various scientists: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Good Squid.

Sketched some frogs🐸 Ink + watercolor

Mondays are better with an octopus squid 🦑💫⁠ ⁠ The octopus squid (Octopoteuthis deletron) is unusual among squids. Most squids have eight arms and two long tentacles, making a total of 10 appendages. As young Octopoteuthis mature, their two feeding tentacles are reabsorbed into their bodies.

Am i an absolute failure of an adult who cant keep up with personal responsibilities or should I just go back on adhd medication

Every single month my partner tries to convince me to draw birds for my sticker club instead of cephs. “I just think your style would work perfectly for a Strike. And I’m sure your audience would love birds.” Manipulation at its finest. He just wants more bird stickers.

When I was in high-school, me and a friend would practice portrait photography together and so many of those photos of myself I HATED. Bro I literally look so cute in them what the fuck is wrong with our brains

I’m pretty positive I have the flu considering my coworkers came into work coughing and telling everyone they have the flu (love this) and MAN I only had one day of complete hell and then I was fine. Imagine if I didn’t get the flu shot??? Thank god for science i love vaccines

I am almost 27 WHY do i still have to deal with acne???? Everyone lied to me about adulthood and i am furious

True love is ordering each other matzah ball soup without consulting the other. Now i have TWO SOUPS!! I’m truly blessed in many ways

Pronouns she/they because i love a little skirt but prefer to be flat chested

Yes I am the person who watches terrible dubbed anime because series are best watched while multitasking

Stream starting soon! I'll be talking about salamanders, kleptogenesis, and mostly doodling salamanders who find themselves in Challengersy situations out in the forests of North America. www.twitch.tv/sarahmackatt...

Ya know life sucks but rn there’s scientists out there discovering how male bark spiders preform oral sex to increase their chances of surviving mating and that is the good in this world.

Getting my very first grey hairs in 2025 speaks volumes for how this year was for me 😭

Driver who is a dick? Roll down your window, give them a thumbs down, and boo loudly. Works great. Feels great. Secured the parking spot i waited forever for that some man tried to steal. Now I’m feeling yarn in peace. Great day.

If any journalist wants to talk to a trans man with a PhD in Human Genomics who was trained in labs that studied the evolution of sex, I'm right here Or just keep platforming Republicans who have a 5th grade understanding of biology so they get more trans people killed, sure 🤷🏻‍♂️
