I don't even remember what this scene was about, but those reactions crack me up. 😆

I live on the other side of the world and knew what was happening and who was urging them on. The only way to be ignorant would be by deliberate choice. Which I guess a lot of them chose, and continue to choose.

We were literally all watching it when it happened. This is utterly ridiculous.

One of Australia's unique avian voices - the song of a male Brown Songlark. A melodic jumble of electric buzzes & scratchy metallic notes, it has been described as sounding like a wheel squeaking on a rusty axle!

"To be a Republican in 2025 represents a clear public confession that you either don't know the difference between good and evil and you're so morally empty that you can't be bothered to begin to try, or that you do know the difference, and you prefer evil." Great essay from @juliusgoat.bsky.social

The Crime of Human Virtue

Sometimes it really is as simple as good vs. evil. This is one of those times. Human virtue is our great crime against the fascist project; it's also our great weapon against it.

I'm sad to see a lot of artists I know saying it's super hard to get sales. And it really is. So I wanna promote them here again.

Go check them out and buy or tip them if you can. This is the non-US shops list but I'll post other lists as well.

Oni @onidraws.bsky.social · Sep 11

I made a pack for non-US artists shops!
Let me know if you want to be added (with a shop link) or removed!

Those affected included members of the federal measles response unit, personnel managing Ebola containment efforts in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Epidemic Intelligence Service, and the team responsible for producing the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

The Trump administration has now reversed the layoffs of a lot of federal employees. At the CDC, officials said some staff were mistakenly terminated due to a procedural error.

Hard agree with Doctor Dave--this is one of Australia's best birds. It's worth your time to try find them, especially the blingy males.

Dave Watson @ecosystemunraveller.com · 2d

Time for another #AwesomeBirds #WildOz edition. This distinctive jobbie is found throughout mainland Australia, but rarely sits still. Often in pairs, these dim sim sized champions can be tricky to spot, but once you key in on their sharp notes, you’ll notice them all over.

After a hurricane, many people worry about losing power. For trans Floridians, it can mean losing access to lifesaving medication and navigating hostility at disaster shelters. But one woman’s hurricane response team is stepping in:
