[COMMENTARY]
A new op-ed warns of a growing mental health crisis among conservationists, driven by ecological loss, funding pressures and a culture of self-sacrifice.
The authors call for greater investment in workforce well-being and support.

Luuuuuuuuuunaaaaaa 💚
Few local creatures stop me in my tracks like this, just the sheer size and soft colors and markings. Like, welp, day instantly better.
lol, gas is already at $5.39 for the cheapest stuff in HB, lifted truck bros about to have an existential crisis next week
i am not generally a "go through the hoops to write a comment I don't think will really be read" kind of guy, but for a plan THIS bad, by a guy I hate THIS much... I'll make the exception
A 1944 map by geologist Harold Fisk charts a 40-mile stretch of the Mississippi River from Friars Point to Gunnison, Mississippi. Fisk used aerial photos and maps to estimate the past and then-present channels.

Rivers are living beings.
I love it so much and wish it had done better to get more made. I wanted more of Regé-Jean Page’s character!
Disability accommodations are a rare thing that actually trickles down. You like curb cutouts? Auto-opening doors? Jar openers? Ramps? Hand rails? YOU’RE WELCOME
Even as an abled person you use disability accommodations every single day.
Supporting accommodations actually helps everyone.

#ECCC2026 shoved a bunch of artists in the lower level so they could have a community stage on the artist alley floor and shoved a bunch of artists downstairs.
Come see us!
We’re lonely…and no one knows we’re here.
An educational infographic titled TORNADO TERMINOLOGY featuring a stylized tornado icon. Tornado Watch: Weather conditions could lead to the formation of severe storms and tornadoes. BE PREPARED: Know your safe location. Be ready to act quickly. Tornado Warning: A tornado has been spotted or indicated by radar. TAKE ACTION: There is imminent danger. Seek refuge immediately. Tornado Emergency: A rare situation with a severe threat to life and catastrophic damage. TAKE ACTION.
Severe storm season is here. Do you KNOW the difference between a Tornado Watch, a Tornado Warning and a Tornado Emergency? www.weather.gov/safety/torna...
Lol, it's hard to comply with the terns of release when you don't even acknowledge their jurisdiction over you.
Tomorrow is shaping up to be the first big raptor flight (mostly Turkey Vultures) of the season. It’ll be down to whether the lake generates too much pushback against the south winds, but I think the winds will come through, pushing birds to the shoreline. #birds #spring #migration
I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)

okay so this seems pretty clear. he knows what it is, he did it on purpose, he chose keeping it over his career with the Marines, if we know this then Susan Collins will also know it, it will 100% come up in the general, let's be done talking about this guy as a real candidate
SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.

We can also revive "glasshole."
I maintain that simply arresting Elon musk and making a real example of him is the quickest way to global stability
the Austin mass shooter was a Tesla employee who assaulted a coworker during a company-allowed prayer break late last year
the company refused to give the victim her assailant's name so she could press charges, and he went on to become a mass shooter

Dear Past Me,
Thank you. 😬
"Water consumption fears are false and overblown."
Turns out...
The US army corps of engineers is considering, right now, what would be the largest destruction of coral reefs in US history. To make a port slightly bigger.
People know this, right?

I have Ryan Grim blocked everywhere he exists but fwiw:
yes class is weird in Maine.
But it doesn't matter because idk why we're discussing the precise class status of the nazi tattoo guy.
There is not actually a class where that becomes less of a problem.
Hi everyone - a quick moment of your time
My girlfriend Meg is currently doing a "Walk all over Cancer" challenge to help raise money toward research. If you can spare even a little, or just share this post it would be hugely appreciated!

All of our wildlife patients this year so far have been owls, but this is our first short-eared.
You can help prevent car strikes like this by obeying rural speed limits and not throwing any litter out of cars. Even organics like apple cores attract rodents to roads, which attracts their hunters. 🪶
Want a reliable way to tell the two cryptic giant hummingbird species apart while birding in the Andes? Use your ear! 🎶 In a new @fieldornith.bsky.social J. Field Ornithology paper, we show how their vocalizations differ clearly—making sound a slam dunk for identifying them in the field.
The Hawaii: Spring 2025 Regional Report is out!

Millions of years ago during the Silurian period, the Sahara Desert was a shallow sea full of aquatic animals like crinoids. Don’t be fooled! Crinoids are commonly called "sea lilies" but they aren't plants! They are echinoderms, like starfish and sea urchins, and many species are still alive today!

7/Ultimately, large, age-structured populations may be robust to rare mass-mortality events. But, if those events start to happen more frequently, recovery may become impossible. What's more, climate change is also selecting for earlier breeding, putting martins between a rock and a hard place.
