Salty Octopus

Now if we can get @neorsd.org in this convo, we'll have the perfect crossover

A nice cask of Amontillado. And... bells for some reason

Not surprised to find the MERL is also a fan of Madeline

Awwww, thanks!

Ohhhhhh, yes. I am unfortunately a Pacific octopus

Ok, well, please accept my compliments. I really love that painting

Oh, ummm, whatever size means I can have it for $25 😁 I'm a poor invertebrate

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

Will this be available as a print? It's gorgeous

I love how clearly you explain science. Masterfully done.

Even if you do focus on vertebrates

It worked in Iraq and Afghanistan, right?

They look skeleton ON SCREEN. I can't imagine how thin you have to be to look that skinny on screen

The school could have provided tickets to parents. Since the school raked in millions off the games. It's not complicated

I'm pretty sure Tom Holland rules apply to The Great Rice Delivery Fiasco

That is a very nice mushroom

Always such a pleasure to read @tkingfisher.com , whose powers of description are simply perfect. In HEMLOCK & SILVER, describing toxic desert plants:

AOC: “MTG is carefully timing her departure just 1-2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office.

Behind this important reversal is a member of the Coast Guard who saw what was happening and had the courage to leak it to the press. That person deserves serious praise.

Drug companies have hired over 500 lobbyists this year to gut the Inflation Reduction Act's drug price negotiation provisions.

They outnumber public interest advocates more than 20 to 1.

We must get money out of politics and end Big Pharma's deadly greed once and for all.

Women don't recognize only the overt hatred & abuse in Trump's actions--shoving his finger in the face of a female professional doing her job & calling her names--we also recognize the cowardice displayed by the other men in the room as they implicitly condone his behavior by saying nothing.

“Ticking Time Bomb”: A Pregnant Mother Kept Getting Sicker. She Died After She Couldn’t Get an Abortion in Texas. Walker is one of several women ProPublica found with underlying health conditions who died when they couldn’t access abortions.

Listen to this book! It's so beautiful!

Damn. That is one fiiiiine man you have there.

I love stumbling across an artist whose work immediately fits into my soul

Go buy some beautiful art, bipeds. It's good for you

So much of what we’re witnessing right now, defensiveness, fragility, denial, over-intellectualizing, “not all white men,” isn’t personal.

Predictable.

Trained.

It’s what happens when an entire group is raised inside a lie that centers you as the default,
