Birders/avian scientists built strong bonds over on the old Twitter - we so enjoyed sharing with its vibrant community. In the last year most of that community moved to other platforms, esp. here on BlueSky. We will now concentrate our outreach efforts here, and hope it remains open, fair, and fun!

We don’t need Amazon. We think we do, but we don’t. Don’t give a penny more to billionaires making money off the suffering of the American people. For many of us, same with Facebook, Threads, Instagram. Download your data. Delete your account. Repeat with the next app. #DownloadDeleteRepeat

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public. He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit. Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research. I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance. Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.
