@brad-and-boujie.bsky.social saw his first Northern Shovelers today! He found the male’s bright yellow eye unsettling 😂 www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Northe...

One of my favorite weekends of the year: Great Backyard Bird Count! It’s great to get outside, be part of something positive, and enjoy fleeting moments of beauty. Citizen science is going to be even more important now, I think. www.birdcount.org

Omg 😂

Just showed the latest ‘HeGetsUs’ Super Bowl ad to Jesus and Johnny Cash and they’re both freaking PISSED.

Reminder that while the “He Gets Us” ads pretend to be “inclusive”/care about everyone, up until 2024, the group that ran them (The Servant Foundation) donated over $60 million to an anti-abortion, anti-contraception, anti-LGBT rights conservative legal advocacy group (Alliance Defending Freedom).

I’M FEELING THAT WAAAYYY

Big love to our worldwide trans whānau today. Loved everyday, but acknowledging the particular fuckery going on in America today. You are loved, you are welcome, you make the world brighter. We are lucky to have you. 🏳️‍⚧️🩵🤍🩷

If the Browns get rid of Watson and apologize to fans for signing a player accused of sexual assault, I would consider being a fan again…

I am so looking forward to this! 🐦 👀 Citizen science is wonderful to be a part of!

I used to be obsessed with Lucy when I was a kid! For a long while I wanted to be an anthropologist because of her.

Happy #WorldWetlandsDay to all who celebrate. Wetlands help reduce climate change impacts, they sustain the water we drink, and they support an amazing diversity of wildlife. In short: wetlands rock 🌿

Weirdly accurate in 2025

new @teenvogue.com: @brittneymac15.bsky.social digs into the details of Trump's exec order on trans youth healthcare. I checked with an @aclu.org senior attorney on what trans youth and their families should plan for. in short: no changes RN; stay on top of your healthcare; don't comply in advance.

Ummm I don't know who needs to hear this but if you have a family member who is a federal employee DO NOT BROADCAST ON SOCIAL MEDIA ABOUT IT OR ANY RESISTANCE ACTIONS THEY MIGHT BE TAKING

ICYMI — Sharpton led a buy-in to support Costco after they didn’t back down on DEI

I had a dream last night that @pattonoswalt.bsky.social was the DJ for @brad-and-boujie.bsky.social ‘s and my wedding reception. Patton insisted on this traditional European group dance that went on and on for like an hour 😂 Finally had to tell him sorry but we have to be out of the venue now!

www.birdcount.org Not much longer until the Great Backyard Bird Count! 🐦 👀 @cornellbirds.bsky.social

Penny pretending she didn’t just lightly bite me because she liked the scritches a little too much 😼😹

What other people write in the Alt Text to describe photos of their cats brings me so much joy ❤️ I’ve clearly been too objective and unfeeling 😹

“Was I Weird” (2022)

😲

Working on a crocheted CPAP hose cover. I’m a beginner, and going to call this “practice” 😂 I have certainly learned what works and what doesn’t! 🧶

I love to see folks standing up for somebody who did not deserve such harsh criticism ❤️ “Bills fans raise over $80K for diabetes research to support Ravens player who dropped crucial pass”

Brain fog aahhhh #brainfog #brainfogsucks #chronicillnessmemes

Learning how to ask my fiancé if he’s hungry in Spanish, because our cat Penny understands it in English and expects to be fed when she hears it 😹

After the enthusiastic response to my posts yesterday on Gertrude Stein's poodles (collectively) named Basket, I did some digging & realized we could curate an entire show around art devoted to these beloved companion animals. So, without further ado, a proposal for BASKET: THE EXHIBITION (thread)

My forthcoming book is a definitive developmental history of the Messerschmitt Bf 109, examining the political and industrial elements of the aircraft's history and covering all the individual variants from 1934 to 1965. Target release is mid-March 2025. tinyurl.com/rkkn4m2j

A reminder - don't use Amazon, but go to bookshops, which play a far more vital role in promoting literacy just by simply making books more visible, and allow you to find things by chance rather than by what the algorithm decides.

Here is a photo of a trans non-binary biologist (me) holding a bird (Eastern Towhee) that is likely a bilateral gynandromorph-- a fusion of cells with female-type chromosomes and cells with male-type chromosomes in one bird! Biological sex and human gender diversity is real and wonderful ❤️🏳️‍⚧️
