Don’t actually own a NASA Mars prototype ATV, but if I did, that's where I would park it on Broadway. And that’s how I would lean on it.

This is the best thing I’ve ever seen 😂
Phil Heckles has been drawing other people's pets since 2020, when he drew his own dog and posted it, jokingly offering paid-for commissions. Genuine requests flooded in. He used the traction to raise money for his local homeless charity. 5 years and over £400,000 later, he's still going. 14/10 ❤️

Did you know following a plant-based diet lowers your risk for foodborne disease and food poisoning? That's because most foodborne pathogens are zoonotic in origin, meaning they come from, or are carried by, animals. (PMID32684938) Lowering your exposure to these products lowers your disease risk!

Fun fact - the parrots we study vary a lot in how they sit when we take photos!
Some (regent, superb and swift parrots) sit up nicely looking like perky little birds🫡
Others (gang gang and OBP) just kind of flop over onto your hand and look like a puddle 🫠
very cute, very silly 🪶🧪🐣🦜🌿🌏

It’s been quite lovely reconnecting with ppl here again - a year and a bit off Twitter was wonderful without the Nazis, but I liked a lot of ppl there! Looking forward to rediscovering everyone and sharing all the new research we’ve been doing while the social media lights were out
