The actual bird nerds have long since spoken on this! The Audubon Society supports wind power as a clear net positive for bird populations and biodiversity - w/ targeted protections for a few highly threatened species in a few sensitive geographies (e.g. CA Condors).

this goes for all the chuds he’s inevitably going to bring with him, that’s his goal, the vice president doesn’t have anything to do and has no interests beyond trolling you and encouraging people to abuse you, freeze all the motherfuckers out in silence

There’s so much happening right now, I thought I’d put together a running thread on the dismantling of #climate and research and knowledge infrastructure in the United States 🧵

@postnordsverige.bsky.social wtf is wrong with you. My wife can’t pick up her package because it uses her short 1st name rather than full length but it’s only 2 letters difference. So you’re going to send back the package and make everyone spend more money. It’s for a school. It’s for a kids program

First thing my 9year old says as we start Astro Bot, “man I love the way this game feels.” He’s talking about the haptics for the controller. “It feels like you’re really playing”

Fact-checking wasn’t “biased” against conservatives. Conservatives just shared more false content. If there’s a sportsball game and one team fouls four times as much, it’s not “biased” for the ref to call four times as many fouls against that team.

Geez really sorry to hear that Mark. Take time for yourself and your family. Hug your kids

Support US OCTOPUS Act to keep octopuses wild

Last spring, Washington state passed a bill banning commercial octopus farming.

Today, we (myself and 99 others, led by Jennifer Jacquet, Becca Franks, Peter Godfrey-Smith, and Walter Sanchez-Suarez) have a letter in Science supporting the US OCTOPUS Act, which would do the same nationwide.

Washington state has banned octopus farming. California is on its way. Now there are plans to introduce a nationwide bill.

I’m helping circulate an open letter signed by myself and ~80 other scientists in support.

If you are a US academic who wants to read/sign, comment or DM me.

Please share. 🙏🐙
