This is exactly how I ended up picking the Gators to win march madness last year 😂 and it worked out

The Newfoundland and Labrador public libraries continue to make the absolute best free pins that you can just have if you go to borrow a book

This is happening tomorrow!

Set up a Patreon for the art even though I have no idea what I'm doing. How do other traditional artists use it? I have a tier where I would send a monthly mini print to subscribers. Any other ideas?

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

And saw/heard 6 species!

Do appreciate a line dancing break during the #Gritty5k @nhl-flyers.bsky.social

Sad to report that we've lost another #kakapo, and a particularly significant one. Solstice was the last kākāpō rediscovered, found on Rakiura in 1997. She died on the weekend as a result of complications from the #disease cloacitis. There are now 237 kākāpō left. #conservation #parrots #birds

We lost roughly $1 million in funding without warning. Projects cancelled included all of our bird monitoring work for the National Park Service & projects w/ the Bureau of Land Management on Gunnison's Sage-Grouse, Pinyon Jays & more. 1/4

When a huge creative company tells you (the consumer or worker) that they have no $$ for projects, maybe they’re telling truth, but remember…I, a ding-dong armed with a pure heart & 50k Bluesky followers, manage to get new projects off the ground constantly while paying artists for their work. So.

Do any of you have a fun map-reading and orienteering activity you’d be willing to share? I’d like to see some examples as I’m putting a skill session together for my natural history class. It could be something done in-class, or it could involve an outdoor scavenger hunt-type exercise (1 hour).

Time for an explainer on how to get funding for a PhD in the UK (1/n)

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.
