The Paleontological Research Institution in Ithaca, NY, has been in financial trouble for a while. I'm biased because I currently have my life-size giant snail and clam on display, but they're a bunch of great people doing great work.

Anyone else might want to contribute work to fundraise for PRI? If someone is willing to coordinate and run the auction, i will certainly spread the call to all my #sciart friends 🥰
I feel compelled to try to help in what ways I can to donate to the sustained survival of the Paleontological Research Institution. Would people be interested in an art auction for a print from my private collection that I would otherwise not be selling to the public?
This was truly such a wonderful place to visit and what a meaningful trip overall! LONG LIVE PRI!!!
Even if the House was fully functional, they're in session for an avg of 147 days and out for 218.
Under Speaker Johnson, Congress has been in session only 12 of the last 97 days, and he still won't swear in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva.
These are the people who demand Work Requirements.😐
You all, don't spend even ten seconds of your precious life browsing Grokipedia.
Nothing good will come of it.
Your attention adds value to something of no value.

Wait was NOT my intention, I just like nautiloids and also old-school is an honorific in my lived experience!
I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA
10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)
Sending love and encouragement to take the day at the pace you need to ♥️
Wait. Its chemical mirroring is so satisfying though.
Funny story, I bought 100 extra of these pins with the intention to sell them to those that may have missed preorder, only to for my ADHD brain to LOSE THEM somewhere in my international chaos whirlwind.
Hoping I find them this week as I reorganize 🫠
A photograph of a drawing of two large penguins facing eachother, above the drawing is a small carved stamp of the drawing, with the stamped print being in reverse to the original orientation in black ink. The penguins are very cute and round, painted with black watercolor paint
My Taiwanese grandmother points to a drawing of a mother otter and her baby drawn in grey and brown color pencil. She wears a red and black dress, gold and pink earrings, and a green beaded jade bracelet, her hair is a dark grey color, with a short and wavy texture.
My grandmother holds her drawing of a penguin caring for two chicks on a multicolor nest of pebbles.
Been busy establishing an artist residency situation here in Taiwan. But i’ve had a little time for art, mainly creating little creative feedback loops with my grandma and her brilliant drawings ❤️ #printmaking #stampcarving #penguins
This is my most confrontational post of the day: please watch Armond’s video & think on it.
It isn’t at all progressive or leftist to spread disabling disease in an ongoing pandemic. There are more Armonds than you know, & folks who don’t mask are making more each day bc most spread is asymptomatic
AI requires that they destroy the biosphere you depend on to live in order to unemploy you.
Good overview of mast cells, cells that contributed to derailing my life as it did to those interviewed: “I would describe myself as a person who had tremendous potential in this world, [...] and that potential has been hijacked by the mental, physical, and psychological impacts of this condition.”
Seriously when does Scooby and the gang pull the human mask off of Laura Loomer’s reptilian monster face already?
Jim Ryan's resignation as UVA President will be effective July 11th, after which he will go on sabbatical before returning as a full professor in the schools of Law and Education.
Extremely dark that the entire U.S. government is lying down to be steamrolled by something called the Trump agenda for fear of some force called "Donald Trump" while the actual Donald Trump has no idea what's happening
🤔 I’m really not a conspiracy theorist, but this really does read like something a lizard person WOULD say…
NO KINGS
Be safe, be smart, and give ‘em hell.
