I just really love shapes. I love it when things are shapes. And I love it even more when shapes are things (Molecular model printer @3dmoleculardesigns.bsky.social‬‬, former rodent botherer, perennial cell enjoyer)

For World AIDS Day 2025: the stigma of HIV & AIDS was so strong that many avoided talking about their diagnosis until their final days.

Scientists: have you been the target of an online harassment campaign, doxxing, or weaponized FOIA requests? I'd like to talk to you about steps you had to take to protect your digital security for an upcoming Nature story. (You can be anonymous if necessary.)

RTs appreciated.

A plastic finger puppet, held up in front of an airplane wall/windows, a model of the upper chunk of a mouse embryo (mostly head and forepaws). E14.5. From GigaScience. The model is about 2" tall and is a light peach color.
