I’m making a quick stop in NYC 🍎 on the way home from New Orleans ⚜️ to see Alie Ward do her first @ologies.bsky.social podcast live show. This is one of my favorite science podcasts that’s been a regular feature of my weekly listening since the pandemic.

The latest @ologies.bsky.social is Owls! It's brilliant (as are all Ologies). It's with the awesome Rocky Guitiérrez, who was PhD supervisor of @jonathanslaght.com (Owls of the Eastern Ice book!) who we got to meet & show owls to when he came to Brisbane a few years ago. pca.st/episode/573b...

The days of thanking veterans today and forgetting them tomorrow has to come to an end.

If you're not familiar, then start with this episode of @ologies.bsky.social and then listen to her books

You’ve all been very good this week, please have a crab.

Loving that the @ologies.bsky.social podcast is making social commentary & enacting a form of protest & social resistance through the themes that are being published over the last 11 months. 10/10 💅🏽🔥✊🏽 Evil, cockroaches (IYKYK), rebellions, 'creepy', moral dilemmas, US Constitution, cryptology, etc.

You know what I love about @ologies.bsky.social is that it’s 6:30 in the morning and I’m sobbing over a mountain lion that I didn’t know had existed but will never, ever, forget. RIP P-22. I can’t wait to visit LA and learn more about him.

"If we lose hope, we're doomed." We must continue Dr. Jane Goodall's mission and all fight for the future of the planet.

A really enlightening discussion! Especially the idea that the US is *already* undergoing a revolution - it's just that it's a revolution from democracy to authoritarianism.

The moment where Hegseth ends his speech and not a single officer claps is the most hopeful thing I have seen in a long time.

In a sane country with competent leadership, the 50 highest-ranking Democrats would call a press conference to denounce what just happened as a threat to the republic and demand Trump's immediate impeachment and removal from office. I don't know he could make his intentions more clear.

Stopped doomscrolling, took myself on a walk with the amazing new episode of @ologies.bsky.social and learnt about revolutions - and even for someone who's done a fair bit of activism, there were vital new things to learn. Feeling grateful for all the other people who give a fuck and make it count.

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

another day, another headline "Who is [full name]? What we know about the suspected [mass shooting location] gunman"

Listening to @alieward.bsky.social interviewing "the revolution guy" on @ologies.bsky.social and very impressed that she's able to keep the flow of the episode focused on the violence that's actually happening rather than leaving it in a centrist academic sandbox

Look who came by for a chat! Maybe you'll hear what we talked about in a couple of months... Thanks @ologies.bsky.social and @alieward.bsky.social for a great conversation and visit to California State University, Long Beach

Feel free to check out our episode “Garology” @ologies.bsky.social to learn lots more; and also this year’s #GarWeek Nov 3-7👍 www.alieward.com/ologies/garo...

I am so so scared of spiders and @ologies.bsky.social actually did help me out with the spider episode. I was walking my dog and I thought "ah! I dont want to be near the spider." And then i thought "the spider doesn't want to be near me either." And that kinda worked?

Hurricane season has been pretty quiet in Mass so far this year, but we still have a few months left to go. For folks interested in learning more about hurricanes, how they work, and how to prepare for them, I *highly* recommend this episode of @ologies.bsky.social: www.alieward.com/ologies/temp...

OK here’s a secret* I was really into turtles before I was into gars. So this will be a randomized thread of some turtle encounters over the years. *I did tell @ologies.bsky.social, so I guess it’s not THAT much of a secret. She did use the “I like turtles kid” sound byte, which was cool 🐢
