supportive pillow 1/2
Four panels of a comic. A mouse lady with a visible baby bump walks up with a tray of food to her friend, a bat, who is seated at a booth. Dialogue: Bat: Sooo. How's the whole "miracle of life" thing going? Mouse: I thought you said you didn't want to talk about that. Bat: Did I? Mouse: You said it was a "horror show!" Bat: Yeah... But I remembered I love horror movies! Mouse: It's not a horror movie! The rough thing lately's been getting sleep... If I'm on my back I feel like a tortoise. Sleeping on my belly's out of the question... I'm not even comfortable on my side, anymore. Bat: Oh, what you need is a body pillow! Mouse: You think so? Bat: I just washed mine, you can borrow her! Mouse: "her?" Three panels of a comic. The first two panels show the mouse's rat boyfriend speaking to her while she is off screen. Dialogue: Rat: Mmm, still can't sleep, Mariella? The third panel reveals the mouse lady's borrowed body pillow has a heavily sexualized anime bat girl on it. Dialogue: Mouse: I'm finally comfortable. But, Rusty... she's watching me.

Hello internets, there's a paleontological museum in danger of being closed. Please help.
fossilsndcoffee.bsky.social Dr. Brendan Anderson @fossilsndcoffee.bsky.social · 8d
Well it seems it is going to be to late for @lastweektonight.com to help with their hiatus. Any suggestions for a big sci com/science interested news account I should play with to help save PRI?

Tag them in the comments with your pitch for why they should help out this museum maybe
infographic about the Paleontological Research institution. 94 years of research here. One of the 10 largest fossil collections in the USA, with 7 million specimens. 1.2 million users of their online content annually, 30,000 in person visitors 1,500 teachers use PRI for continuing education each year link to donate: https://www.priweb.org/donate infographic explaining that PRI needs to raise 1 million dollars by December 31st to pay off their mortgage, be free of that debt and continue future operations. They have already raised 2.1 million of the 3.1 million needed to pay this unexpected expense due to a major donor being unable to fulfill a long-term pledge

Did you know. That the meme-explosion that was the wooden model of Sacabambaspis (an Ordovician jawless fish) held at a Museum in Helsinki, was created by a pioneering Estonian fish paleontologist and palaeoartist, Elga Mark-Kurik. 🧵

Anyone who has offered to help me financially, please instead help out PRI / Paleontological Research Institution. They run a wonderful small museum in Ithaca at risk of foreclosure. They offer special sensory-friendly days, fully-masked days, fossil IDs, and an online gift shop.

Holy cow a lot is going on in the US right now. You may also need to take a deep breath and look closely at a painted lady butterfly.
Painted lady butterfly, Nymphalidae, from Bandera County Texas, Lost Maples State Park. It's a closeup of the head and wings; the antennae have "knobs" on the end, and the wings are a pretty pattern of mossy browns with a splash of pinkish orange. The "knobs" on the antennae are characteristic of Nymphalids, and their first pair of legs are reduced.
