Super excited to see the release of this short film by Caitlin Bailey, a wildlife cinematographer who works with the Global Foundation for Oceanic Exploration. She reached out because she wanted to discuss empathy for deep-sea animals that don't have faces.

This book by @madva.bsky.social, @dryan149.bsky.social and @michaelbrownstein.bsky.social magically appeases both my worried, Skeptical Academic Self, and my much more hopeful and admittedly atrophied Organizer Self. Go buy it!
