If you thought eggs were expensive, wait until you find out how much it costs to treat polio out-of-pocket when your health insurer denies your claim.

All milk sampling to date routinely shows 7+ logs of infectious virus per mL in samples from infected cows. Very glad this raw milk was recalled because I cannot emphasize enough what a bad idea it is for people to drink high titer H5N1.
.@capublichealth.bsky.social reports finding #H5N1 #birdflu virus in raw milk. The producer, Raw Farm LLC of Fresno County, has agreed to recall a batch of a whole milk product called "cream top."
Milk from infected cows contains staggering levels of virus. www.statnews.com/2024/04/29/b...

Outside of academics, I do my best to uplift to LGBTQIA+ community on and off campus.

I founded my university's queer organization and gender inclusive housing.

I just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself!

I'm Matt, a graduating senior getting my BS in Biological Sciences with a life science concentration

When I'm not actively working in the lab, I spend a lot of time writing and drawing.

If we are mutuals, my dms are open! ^_^

Wait, wait, wait... so Ubisoft Montréal, 15 days before releasing the first Assassin's Creed, released an open-world Naruto game?

Exclusive to the Xbox 360?

And you can freestyle hand seals with the analog sticks? WTF

The deeper you look into this wonderful new JWST image, the more there is to see.
Nearby stars, scenes of celestial birth farther away, galaxies everywhere in the background. Energy and action in play everywhere. 🧪🔭

It’s #AsexualAwarenessWeek! I’m an ace/aro author who’s been publishing for a long time, but only relatively recently have I allowed myself to be vulnerable enough to write ace characters. It’s been deeply liberating.

Here’s a little thread of my stories with explicitly ace characters.

can we start calling followers kaleidoscopes or kaleids for short? I think that'd be so cute since that's what groups of butterflies are called
