This is my kind of good trouble.
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

Really enjoyed appearing at San Jose State University this past week with wonderful people (and Pulitzer-winning cartoonists) Ann Telnaes and Mark Fiore, and celebrating Ann's win of the Hearst Award. Congrats, Ann, and thank you, SJSU!

Are there mycologists or publishers out there who need a Mycological illustration artist?

This is the only place I’d even ask this question. 😁

Putting it out in the world that I’d love to take on a detailed project & illustrate a fungi book!

Willing to build a portfolio if this is a possibility ⬇️

All of this yarn was dyed with one species of mushroom, Phaeolus schweinitzii, commonly known as the dyers polypore. What a variety of color from one mushroom

I will definitely do this
I made a flyer! Know anyone in CA, OR, WA, or BC who might be interested in collecting mushrooms for research purposes? #mycology #citizenscience

Sorry for the string of videos, but this is amazing and makes me wonder if this is what life could be like if we all just logged off the internet.

These videos apparently started because someone reacted to him using a scythe.

OK, that's all I have to share. Just very cool and thought some people might find his work inspiring.

Wow!
Colored droplets in corn syrup seemingly blended together can be returned to their original state by reversing the direction of mixing, a form of laminar flow called "Stokes flow".

I took screenshots of all my favorite Twitter buddies when I quit the x place last November. I’m just now getting around to seeing if any of them have migrated over to blue sky and I’m glad to see so many are here🦋
