Rain on plastic.
Cold Tennessee air.
And the architect of chaos watching it all unfold.

More to come soon!

Congratulations @profkwilson1971.bsky.social!
He looks like a cormorant about to be cleaned by RSPB volunteers.
Fixed it for you
I wonder what sort of butterfly Colin the Caterpillar would turn into if he didn’t get eaten first?
Fix your hearts!
Don't steal our rights
We want everyone in the chemical sciences community to feel welcome, supported and valued, so we're sad to see some people seize on yesterday's supreme court ruling with anti-trans messages. Today, we're highlighting our resources on allyship for trans colleagues and friends

Dunno who needs to hear this but have you considered not being hateful and transphobic and instead spending your energy doing something positive?
is.... that a capybara for scale
