It may seem like @arnettwill would be great to hang out with, but trust me, is not all fun and games... The last time we got together, this is what happened, okay. I got boxed to go!

@pakschaalpodcas Toen ze hier er een paar week terug ook speelden en ik langs rende en heel enthousiast riep That's my team! I'm from Amsterdam! Waren ze niet echt onder de indruk. Maar misschien was dat omdat ze allemaal Spaans spreken of omdat ze net verloren hadden.

@pakschaalpodcas Misschien leuk om te zien: Amateurclub hier in Chicago, op het veld bij mij thuis voor de deur, speelt in Ajax shirts.

#animaladvocacy should include human animals.

[Sentient @Sentient_Media]

As animal advocacy organizations expand globally, the need for racial diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) grows even greater.

Stien van der Ploeg explores how organizations can prioritize DEI work in this installment of #EncompassEssays:

Screwworms once killed millions of dollars’ worth of cattle a year in the southern U.S. Then the Department of Agriculture undertook an immense multi-decade effort to wipe out the pests. @SarahZhang reports: https://t.co/XpUw7YHdoH

Freedom is a birth right but not all of us have traveled the same path towards the freedoms we all naturally deserve. Some chains are steel & metal but some chains are cultural & systemic leaving many of us still fighting for the right to exist. Happy Juneteenth everyone ✊🏿

I’ve had THIS FISH for longer than the Confederacy existed🐟

I don't care too much about the "America should be first" angle, but I do care about a need push for the research and development of cultured meat—and the end of meat packing.

Wczoraj razem z moim ojcem pojechałam podpisać się pod listą poparcia dla Trzaskowskiego. Nie jest on moim wymarzonym kandydatem i w pierwszej turze głosuję na Biedronia. Ale uważam, że Trzaskowski musi wystartować w tych wyborach. 1/5...

I donated to Campaign Zero and happy/sad to be confronted with this counter view. It doesn't feel good to have made a decision without fully thinking things through, but that's the discomfort that learning comes from. Thanks @eveewing for taking the time to write this out.

stunning to see thousands of protestors laying down on the bridge with their hands behind their backs.

this may be the largest, most diverse movement in american history. #BlackLivesMatter

I owe my love of nature to my ancestors: from my 3x great-grandpa who bought our family's land after Emancipation, to my grandmother who star-gazed and gardened with me on that same land. She also taught me mark recapture! #BlackInNature @BlackAFinSTEM

62% of officers fired in Philadelphia have been reinstated under the city’s police union contract. That includes this white supremacist.👇🏾

@RebeccaRHelm Despite being too into animal rights to appreciate horse riding anymore, I still wish I could double follow you for doing this.
