And I’ll announce, in a more direct manner, I have completed my MSc in ecology! I get to start my PhD in microbiology in the fall. Exciting things in the works. 🥳

Just popping in to say I got the best surprise. Bought Oathbound by @tracydeonn for my bday a few days after its release (March). Finally opening it after re(re)reading the first two books and SHE HAS SIGNED IT?! Did she sneak in my home…be honest?

@HonkIfUrHoary Next time I see a crawdude, it’s immediately hitting your iNat DMs

@Science_Miathod Thank goodness! Tag me and I’ll get it to research grade if it for sure can’t get to species.

2,000 IDs to go, Dan.

@HonkIfUrHoary It was a pic from like 2 yr ago that had received no other IDs, so we both have closure now. 🙏

@Science_Miathod Yay! There’s been a few recently that I had to put back at either Cambarid or Northern Hemisphere Crayfishes because there wasn’t enough evidence to get to genus/species, and I always feel bad about that 😂

@HonkIfUrHoary You got my cr(a)yptid down to genus level, I’ll take it!

@Science_Miathod Hopefully I did a good job 😂

another great way to help right now: Chewy gift cards. we can get prescriptions and rx food on Chewy for cheaper. on Chewy, go to "Donate to a Rescue", search for us, and you can send us an e-gift card there 🙏

@aliciaandrz “Best fishes” and “Fincerely” (I work in aquatic animal health 😌🐟)

thoughts on email sign offs: 1. “all the best”: lies. passive aggressive professionalism. the worst. 2. “best”: lazy & sterile & vague. best what? 3. “cheers”: sir, we’re at work. 4. “yours” or “warmly”: affectionate & genuine. top tier. 5. “thanks” or “regards”: you hate me

@AlHendiify @HonkIfUrHoary I read squirrels for filth on the daily, especially the ones who square up rn for breeding.

@Science_Miathod @HonkIfUrHoary A squirrel ran by like “I wouldn’t let him talk to me like that”

California friends: is anyone near Yosemite NP? If so, do you want to take pictures of crayfish for me?

@AlHendiify @HonkIfUrHoary Did I have an argument with this critter while other folks walked/drove by? Yes, yes I did.

@Science_Miathod @HonkIfUrHoary 😩😂

having autism is so funny because after EVERY conversation i still walk away like oh i was supposed to ask them more questions back wasn’t i

Truth is, if you want society to be better for your child, you have to make society better for every child. Just focusing on yours alone won’t do them any good. It certainly won’t give them the type of society you want. All children are our children.

@AlHendiify Like going to the ocean and saying there’s just not enough saltwater and fish pee out here.

Bro said this on a planet with 8 billion humans.

if you are doing things on an empty stomach or hungry to be more “productive” you’re training yourself to think of food as a reward. FOOD IS NOT A REWARD. food is food, and you need it. even if it makes you sleepy. it’s not some goal to work towards

@aliciaandrz Making coffee in the Shakespearean insult mug for you tomorrow! 🙂‍↕️

tomorrow is 17 months sober—I’m so proud of myself. I couldn’t have done it without all of your support ❤️

Happy Trans Visibility Day🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵

COVID-19 cases are increasing and flu is still spreading in NYC. Wearing a mask in crowded indoor settings this spring can protect you and others, even if you don’t have symptoms. Well-fitting masks, like N95s, KN95s, or KF94s offer the best protection: on.nyc.gov/3U2bq5n

Eid Mubarak to all but especially to the Muslim cats who just got used to waking up at 4am for snacks everyday and are now very confused.

wearing a mask is an act of love and i am a lover girl <3
