JD Vance is on a historic roll: He campaigns for AfD in Germany - they lose. Invited the Pope to come to US for Trump’s big event - Pope refuses. Leads peace negotiations with Iran - fails miserably. Campaigns in Hungary for Orbán - who gets smoked.

This one going out special to Viktor Orban and his couch banging buddy JD Vance

Happy World Ocean Day now prove you are not a robot. (This CRABTCHA is brought to you by @jopabinia.bsky.social and yours truly.)

We have one of @natickbobcat.bsky.social’s friends in our yard, too!

Bobcat on the Raccoonobahn !! This is quite rare for us, looks large so probably a male (I’m no expert). #mammals

Cartoon: My wife pointed out that if I was going to draw Cutter and Skywise in different styles then Rankin Bass was a solid elf source. I think she thought I was going to look at The Hobbit but I'm sure she won't be surprised I went to the North Pole instead. #ElfQuest

As long as it's Biblically Accurate...

This bobcat paused mid-journey on the road, scanning her surroundings before moving on. #WildlifePhotography #mammals #bobcat #naturephotography

In better news, I can now share that we caught @natickbobcat.bsky.social on vacation. Robert seemed to find the Florida weather acceptable; but seemed confused on how we were able to spot him. Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. Photo by @glhow-rows.bsky.social

Trying to finish these damn disappointing wizard trading cards

Blessings of the Season be upon you!

Great example of bad science policy communication 👇🏽 This post does not communicate that they don’t propose cuts to the Artemis program. In fact it proposes an increase to their budget. The cut is to the science programs: the curiosity and saving planet earth programs. 🔭🧪 #scicomm

That was the biggest damn cottontail I’ve ever seen. Gonna eat like a king for DAYS. Not sure what’s up with all the eggs though. #HappyEaster Bipeds!

Mama Humpback swims along side the Humpback whale, extending her long flipper above and below the carcass, and touching the carcass gently with her flipper... (Frediani et al. 2020) #2026MMM #AlasPoorYorick #IKnewHimHoratio #AFellowOfInfiniteJest #OfMostExcellentFancy

Humpback Whale vs. Nile Crocodile is the 900th BATTLE IN MARCH MAMMAL MADNESS HISTORY!!!!! #2026MMM #MMMath

Tell us you haven’t finished the narrative yet without telling us you haven’t finished the narrative yet… #2026MMM

I have the image of the split exhaust trail of Challenger seared into my head, and I think that the Twin Towers are now superimposed on that, weirdly reinforcing/rewriting the image, and this rocket had twin side boosters, and I don’t think I will ever be okay about watching humans launch

This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.

Crying shame no wolves in #2026MMM this year

It’s April 1 AND it’s the #2026MMM Championship? MMM Narrator Meeting:

Come ON people! “Wolf takes bite out of Hamburger” was RIGHT THERE

Get a skeet doing modest numbers and realize that when folks look at my TL to see if I’m worth a follow they’ll see a solid month of March Mammal Madness verbal diarrhea. Oops.

Ok for the next 24 hours this is a moon stan account only* *unless It happens.

FLORIDA MAN ALERT #2026MMM

Every year, humpback whales make long treks btwn where they breed & where they feed. Maternally-inherited mtDNA from >1,800 humpback whales suggest that animals annually return to where they were born to breed themselves & where they fed w/their moms early in life #2026MMM doi.org/10.3354/meps10508
