Finished Everything is Tuberculosis last night and still 🤯. Definitely recommend. Returning it to the @chipublib.bsky.social this week for the next person in line! @ladytophamcatt.bsky.social sorry not the ebook, so no help to you––but this is a quick read so you should get yours soon. 📚

Rainy day pickling project

"Trans liberation is 365 days a year. It is beyond visibility. It is advocating for policies that support trans people. It is caring for trans people loudly, even when we aren’t in the room. It is protecting us fiercely. It is showing up in the little moments that aren’t always visible."

Sometimes I wonder if working from home for so long has turned me into a goblin who cannot be trusted to interact with other people without making it weird. Then I remember that I have always been a goblin who cannot be trusted to interact with other people without making it weird.

Why would I use "AI," I actually know how to fucking write

listen up this is the only type of april fools post i'm interested in seeing today (obvious, harmless, and full of sheep puns)

TIGERS!!!

Not happy about these thunderstorms at all

It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you. If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can. Everyone give this a share after.

And, just for the sake of putting things in perspective, this is the kind of stuff that her activism is causing right now in the world: bsky.app/profile/park...

I agree with this. But also, if you're going to watch this anyway, the very least you can do is to not tell me about it, tbh.

Rent was delightful––such a strong cast! We Gen X folks were amused by the "performance art" scene––funny on its own and even funnier if you remember who Karen Finley is.

At Loyola to see Rent…digging this artifact!

Caturday whiskers!

I'm sorry if you're getting sick of the vole photos. There's going to be a few more. I spent a half an hour on the floor of the deck with my back up against the wall and my good camera perched on my knee so I could get some close-ups of my little friends. It was worth the pins and needles #mammals 🌿

We sequenced the genome of 'desert ginseng' (Cistanche deserticola) - a leafless parasitic plant that gave up photosynthesis - and found it lost huge chunks of its own genome…but started stealing genes from its host! Thanks to my collaborators Prof Huang + her talented team👏🏻 lnkd.in/evF5iU9G

Readers! What is the last book you loved by a trans author? And what is something you loved about it?

This is what it looks like when fascism is pushing women out of the workforce and the public sphere. And if you’re in a position where you can, you should hire women and pay us what we’re worth.

Say hello to my little frond

Wow, this is the most intriguing title I've seen this year. It's an interesting paper too!

Amazing interview with Fiona Cross, whose work on spider cognition inspired Children of Time: www.animalcognition.org/2018/04/18/w...

if you watch or support this you're a bad person btw. i'm not arguing with you about it either
