Ohaay, it’s the lady who hosts that Ologies podcast and finally got back into her Bsky account.
Alie Ward here, excited to see so many science friends in one place. Add me/say hi so I can gently creep on your work.
I wear this yellow sweater too much.

He literally pulled a "you should smile more" IN RESPONSE TO AN EPSTEIN QUESTION.
KAITLAN COLLINS: What would say to Epstein survivo---
TRUMP: You are so bad. You are the worst report. No wonder CNN has no ratings. She's a young woman. I don't think I've ever seen you smile. They should be ashamed of you.

No kids! And the convo was much longer and somehow worse and so I sat down and just listened for a while even though I had to write about marmots. Just a very weird time on planet Earth

Jarrett and I talk about that ALL THE TIME. He is also 9 years younger than me, so he was 14, but I was in my early 20s. He makes me describe it like a hungry person reads restaurant reviews.

🐴 WE GOT YOU SOME DONKEYS. A nice chill convo.
The teeth.
Those ears.
The Celine Dion braying.
Plus: milk baths, donkey kicks that will floor you, mule genetics, load bearing, and what to expect if you want to add a donkey to your family.

ran into a friend at a cafe who mentioned his wife is having an emotional affair with chatgpt, missed that the "chat model was much hornier last spring," and that they're getting divorced but her chat & his chat negotiated the terms of the divorce over several weeks. They were together for 18 yrs.
most cafe conversations blend into the background for me, but as soon as a man starts the “do you use ChatGPT? I’ve started using it for…” conversation within a 10 table radius, I feel my brain short circuiting

A lot of Dems are going to take Bovino and Noem being fired as the finish line, and it's very important to make it clear to them that it is a starting line

De-escalation in Minnesota will be a very good thing if it happens and I hope it means less aggressive and violent surges in other places. But I want to stress that it is still critical to engage in ICE watch work wherever you live. The regime may change tactics, but they will still be out in force.

If you like this, you should be listening to @ologies.bsky.social where listeners ask such questions as "why are buffaloes' butts so small" and they interview people whose wives make them species-accurate owl sweaters.
Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.
