In Gaza, even animals are searching for a lost safety.. 💔 Today, I rescued this mother cat and her kittens after they survived an attack by stray dogs in the street. The fear in the mother’s eyes says it all, but they are finally safe inside the shelter now. Please, have mercy on these fragile souls.🐾🥺🆘💞✨ #Gaza #AnimalRescue #Cat #Compassion

Carol and Hubert are still here and are approaching 1 year old. at this point, I'm willing to let them go separately if that helps them find homes. They are getting 0 interest as a pair and they'll be fine separated. please share

Earlier this week I posted an example of a fake western blot provided by ThermoFisher to demonstrate the validity of a p53 antibody. I considered it an amusing curiosity. In fact ThermoFisher has systematically manipulated antibody validation data. Short Thread... 🧵
Some friends don't walk on two legs, but they leave a warm mark on your shoulder🐾✨😻 The magic of rescue lies in the look of gratitude that revives your heart before theirs. Share your support for stray animals🫂🐾🙏❤️ #Relax#AnimalRescue#Gaza
Dingy is a ~2.5 year old spayed female who enjoys running around very fast, playing with toys, and generally being kind of weird. She has big eyes and is one of the cutest cats I've ever seen. Why is she still here?!
The artist behind this painting, Criselda Vasquez, painted this portrait of her parents in 2017. The man in this painting, her father, was recently taken by ICE. He has lived in the United States for forty years. This loss has made it hard for the family to support themselves. If you want to support them, you can go to their GoFundMe here:

My friends in New York City— a dear friend of mine is currently in the hospital for an unspecified amount of time and there is no one able to check on his cats while he’s dealing with his health.
Is there anyone who’d be interested or available in fostering these two sweethearts. It’d be greatly appreciated!!!
The county just mowed the roadside in June, and an entire generation of monarch caterpillars went with it.
In a lot of America, the strip of grass and wildflowers along rural roads is the last place milkweed still grows.
Farm fields got sprayed. Suburbs got paved. The roadside ditch is where ground-nesting bobolinks, meadowlarks, pheasants, and bumblebee queens raise their young because almost nothing else is left.
June and early July are peak nesting season. They are also when most counties run their mowers.
A pheasant nest in early July still has eggs in it 21% of the time. A monarch caterpillar in June is 11 days from becoming a butterfly. The mower doesn't know. The mower keeps going.
But there's a fix.
Counties that delay roadside mowing until after July 15, mow at higher cutting heights (8–12 inches), use flushing bars on equipment, and target only the visibility-critical edges instead of the entire shoulder have seen big results.
Iowa, Minnesota, and Washington have programs along these lines. Most states don't.
If you live in a county that mows everything in June, call your county supervisor. Ask for a mowing delay until late summer. Most rural counties have never heard the request and would consider it.
The roadside isn't a lawn. It's the last refuge for a lot of species we keep wondering why we don't see anymore.
I came back to the United States, hearing about a very sad news: Craig Venter passed away today. He is a pioneer, successfully sequenced the first Human genome, and tried to create Synthetic Cells. We lost a giant in Science. RIP.

If you're in the Bay Area, would you consider adopting this cat? Friends of Bear does amazing work, rescuing cats off the street. But they are running out of room and cats like this constantly get passed over.
Would you consider opening up your heart and home for this guy?
Bertie needs to find his person, he is cooped up in his kennel but deserves more room 🏠 his previous records suggest that he was abandoned in his home after his owner moved out so he currently just wants to hide at the rescue 😢
