One time during a massage I told the masseuse that the birds in the relaxing music that she was playing wouldn’t be found in the same area. #birdnerd

it’s very refreshing seeing a company actually push back against ai instead of submitting to it

I don’t think people understand the gravity of what we are looking at in this photo. This should infuriate every single one of us.

Holy shit, this is BRILLIANT: This dude breaks down why everyone thinks the whole WHCD event was fake... everything about trump is FAKE.

Best video you'll see today.

Balto didn't run his ass through 53 miles of bullshit Alaskan blizzard and get turned into a stuffed animal for y'all to be anti-vaxx.

[ocean 🍉 CHECK PINNED @orcamando]

this is why zoos and aquariums are so important. shit like coral or amphibians or literally THOUSANDS of other species just flat out can’t survive in our current world. we need to artificially breed and protect them until we have better solutions if we want to keep them alive.

Western philosophy has had the concept of the great chain of being, which views species as hierarchically ordered, with man supposedly as the pinnacle. Viewing species as ordered according to "evolution," "primacy," or "importance" is distinctly an Occidental thing.

[🦎Viscerasuchus🪶 (croc enjoyer🐊) @Visceral9000]

Maybe a hot take, but our perception of animals is deeply rooted in colonialism.

One animal is not better or “more evolved” than the other. Nor are insular/island species of animals inept or weak. Each animal is well adapted to their environment prior to human modifications.

[Georgina Rose 🌌 @daatdarling]

This is a reminder for those who have forgotten that for most of human history, the Christians were the ones destroying culture, beauty, and history, not the ones defending it. This take is the historic stance of the church.

rice’s whale is a gulf endemic species numbering fewer than 100 individuals

deepwater horizon spill caused the species a 22% decline — before it was even fully given species status by scientists in 2021

the “american whale” further imperiled by industrial greed

and this is why education is important because the republican party under donald trump and the republican party under abraham lincoln are two very different things

The Tongass is the worlds largest intact temperate rain forest IN THE WORLD, and a globally significant ecosystem as it serves as a major carbon sink, storing more biomass per acre than many tropical jungles.

You don't hate this regime enough.

pior que tem estudos mostrando que muitos desenhos atuais que tem cortes rápidos, cores muito intensas e estímulos o tempo todo tem chances de afetar a atenção das crianças e por isso os antigos surram eles

this is what happens when creative people aren’t valued and supported with their artistic jobs

love telling absolute strangers my favourite magnolia facts: not only did magnolias exist alongside dinosaurs, they existed BEFORE BEES! they used to be pollinated by beetles because bees simply did not exist yet!!!

[Jerome Foster II @JeromeFosterII]

Mono-culture farming devastates the rest of nature.

Farmlands continue to lose much of their wildlife, bees, birds, insects, amphibians. But each generation measures "normal" nature against what existed in their childhood; not what existed before.

So we don't mourn the Auroch, Quagga, Eastern Elk, or drained wetland. We never knew them. We each inherit a slightly emptier world & call it normal, a shifting baseline syndrome.

Humans are remarkably adaptive... dangerously so.
