My cat sitter is telling me I can have 3 cats 😭 oh god @feederofcats you might see an application from me soon

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

My obsession with Stan and Cheese is getting so out of hand I had to stop myself from making them my wallpaper. It frustrates me that I feel so called to cats that I can’t adopt. I would love more than anything for them to go to a home of someone I know @feederofcats

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

I just texted my cat sitter. I’m at a loss. I think about them daily.

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

new stanley and cheesecake content dropped 😭

[Friends of Bear Cat Rescue @feederofcats]

this is a little reminder that rescuers have jobs, lives, health issues, depression, anxiety, etc just like you and I'm running a rescue on top of that, 24/7. I barely have time to breathe. please don't be a dick 🥰

anyway here are some cats

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

Can somebody please go get these sweet boys :(

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

breaks my heart on a DAILY basis that I can’t adopt cheesecake and stanley

[Friends of Bear Cat Rescue @feederofcats]

when Cheesecake Factory was outside he would sit politely and stare at people, waiting for them to notice him but was ignored

now he follows me around the rescue and does the same thing which means I must stop and pet him every time so he knows he'll never be ignored again

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

@daintysloth I have a solution in mind

[Friends of Bear Cat Rescue @feederofcats]

a couple examples of the horrors

James Graybie (FIV+) wrassling Dweeb (FIV-)

Cheesecake Factory (FIV+) sharing snacks with bestie Stanley (FIV-)

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

best dress ever 🥰

Outfit repeater bc I’m authentic to my style

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

Apple giving you the option to !! a text message was such a good move on their part

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

@knoxdiver @feederofcats RIP bluebert that one still gets me 😭

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

Nothing is more important to me right now than getting Stanley and Cheesecake Factory adopted @feederofcats 😭 I wish I could take these old man babies soooo bad

[Friends of Bear Cat Rescue @feederofcats]

📍SF Bay Area

We still have all these very adoptable kittens waiting for homes somehow: Goomba, Toadette, Carol & Hubert, and Soda Can

They're getting close to 1 year old and are getting passed up for younger kittens. They're all extremely sweet 💔

[Owen Sparks @OwenSparks]

Artemis II astronaut Victor Glover received a hero's welcome from his neighbors! 🇺🇸

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

I am begging someone to adopt these old man babies 😭

[Friends of Bear Cat Rescue @feederofcats]

I can't deal with Stanley and Cheesecake Factory..... this is too much for my heart

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

But many people who work at NASA are contractors (like myself). You can do some searching, but this website for example shows the contracting agencies that support NASA Armstrong https://t.co/GKDF0wsWNn

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

Turn on your replies so I can tell you about all of the ways you can work at NASA without a STEM degree 🥹

[beck @unrivaled]

went to nasa’s career page. let out the loudest laugh known to man. closed the tab. very humbling.

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

I’m responding with jobs that I know *exist* at NASA related to specific degrees/experience, but I have no idea if these jobs have current openings. Civil servant positions are listed on https://t.co/Tkwtuh2Oai (see next)

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

@erebus14989705 Definitely can imagine there being opportunities in NASA’s Earth Sciences Division, but also maybe lunar agriculture in the future??

[Dr. Daria Pidhorodetska @AstroDaria]

@DallasFN26 @JusttXae I’m just naming the options that I know exist (not that I even know if they are currently hiring said positions or not) but of course they are competitive. But on paper I “shouldn’t” have gotten my job either and I did because I believed in myself and didn’t give up.
