My latest. "Do not allow your values to be captured and contained behind a screen in a cycle of inactive reaction. Jailbreak your cynicism and isolation, and escape your devices. Bring your hope, rage, and potential into the world."

If leaving your home often is not easy or practical & you perhaps have something that you could sell on eBay, there’s an option on eBay where you can donate up to 100% of the proceeds from sale of that item to any one of hundreds of charities. A number of food banks & immigration orgs are on there.

Yup! I was able to 3D print some for free at my local library. I used this file I've seen shared around: www.printables.com/model/417238...

Thanks for sharing! I didn't know eBay could do this.

630+ people served today in only three hours. Support your local food banks however you can! Utilize food banks however you need! 💙

A picture from my volunteer station at a food bank. There are stacked canned goods on metal tables, with tables of produce and other volunteers in the background as we prepare to open.

Any other furloughed feds wanna match food bank volunteer shifts 1:1? I'll be at my local food bank helping out tomorrow (and trying to keep at it until I can return to work and have funds!)

Alright, team Bluesky: US foodbanks are about to have staggering demand when SNAP ends Nov 1st. We need to help them prepare.

I'll match donations: DM or reply with a receipt showing your own donation to a food bank of your choice, and I'll donate to match, up to a total of $500. 💪🥗🍲🥚🥧🥪🥣🥛

Let's do another #ctenophore survey.
You are scuba divining and see this lobate comb jelly cruising in search of prey. Is it swimming to the LEFT or RIGHT?

A video from when I was a GS-3 doing bird surveys. That's right, a GS-3. I also had to pay rent to the Army Corps for the FEMA trailer I lived in that flooded when it rained. My first paid gov job.

Will I be illegally fired this week?! Who knows! But here's a picture of me with a giant tree that will outlast us all!

Me! Standing on a platform in front of "Big Tree", a massive coast redwood. I'm holding my arms out wide to emphasize what a teeny tiny itty bitty baby I am next to this giant tree. A sign says Big Tree is 286 feet tall, 23.7 feet in diameter, 74.5 feet in circumference, and an estimated 1500 years old.

I'm mostly a Bsky scroller. Not much to see on my account. :)
