Just took my taxonomy final, and - after staying up all night because I couldn't seem to remember the Order for fishes - i can finally say I'm not confident in the resulte, but the final is done.

Also, actinopterygii is playing in my head like an ear worm.

Thanks, brain 🧠

I've thoroughly annoyed all my IRL friends with my Animal Facts, so maybe it's time to return to this corner of the internet and annoy everyone else 🦝

Btw, there is an orphaned baby bun who lives outside my apartment. I hadn't seen him in a couple days, but found him this afternoon. Everyone say hello to Baby Bun 🐇

I met a millennial who didn't know what a twink is. I had to explain it to him.

R: "Scrolling again?"
Me: "Yeah"
R: "How's that mental health doing?"
Me: "Bad."
R: 🤨
Me: "It's not the scrolling, it's the Everything Else, too"

I don't think it's a coincidence that cops started acting extra out of hand once we let them wear military gear. Make them wear clown outfits for several years to restore humility to the job

My stress threshold has been redlining for a week now and I've had two anxiety meltdowns in three days - but my client's kitten is laying on top of my head purring away and it makes this moment a little better

Idk man, I've been thinking a lot about birds lately. And how little the general public (myself included) knows about the world we inhabit. #nature

The term "Biological sex" as used by the right is scientifically meaningless. But that's fine for them, because they aren't trying to do science. They're trying to enforce a class system. It doesn't matter that it's social constructs all the way down, it always has been, for five thousand years.

I don't remember the name of this funky fungi, but it sounds like "schizophrenic commune" so that's what I've been calling it 😂🍄
