Sometimes I get comments like “glad you made time for art!” and don’t think people realize I’m a full-time artist now 😅

The best way to support me is signing up to my email list, buying art, sharing/liking/commenting is extremely kind & helpful too! Thank you 🤗

Daily bunny no.2905 met you at a very strange time in his life
Bunnies are in the ending scene of the movie version of "Fight Club". Two bunnies hold hands while watching buildings explode on a city skyline at night. They look to each other ambiguously. A bunny version of the song "Where Is My Mind" plays in the background.

Luigi fans, it looks like the DNA evidence is 'fruit from a poison tree'. Cops took DNA without consent from a slice of pizza they gave him. It also seems they likely didn't have probable cause for arrest initially.

Free Luigi!
Luigi Mangione's lawyers say police used snacks to obtain DNA
A new Pennsylvania filing from Mangione's lawyers accuses the Altoona Police Department of illegally obtaining his DNA with snacks at the police station.

Daily bunny no.2899 sees you trespassing
A bunny stands on the edge of the wall of an old-fashioned mansion. Ivy is growing over the wall, and there is a statue of an angel; the mansion might be abandoned! It is dusk out, and the bunny on the edge of the wall is backlit, looking directly at the viewer

The Astronomy feeds now include 11 (!!!) brand new specific subfeeds! 🔭

The subfeeds try to cover every part of astronomy research with at least one feed.

All subfeeds automatically crosspost to the main Astronomy feed, too!

Here's a thread with links to all of them ⬇️

The more I talk about the election the more shocked I am by how many people memory holed 2016-2020. Every day was a new horror. New emergencies popped up constantly. I fundamentally don’t understand how people seemingly forgot about all of it.

Dr Jess Wade has written, and worked on this, quite extensively and provides clarity for many of the arguments that put us into this position, and clarifies our complicity: "I don't understand how scientists and engineers have been okay with it for so long." 🧪

Text: What are the main challenges women face in STEM? Historically, academic careers hasn't been very compatible with having caring responsibilities (for example children or looking after elderly parents), which are often taken on by women. Moreover, systemic bias is an ongoing problem. Women (and people of colour) are less likely to get a big research grant or a fellowship, and they are less likely to be nominated for an award, and their papers are less likely to be accepted or cited in leading journals. Although academia knows this – and the data backs it up – we still use grants, awards, and citations as a proxy for scientific excellence. These figures of merit ultimately determine whether someone becomes a professor. It's like we have this really broken system that perpetuates this privilege: the more privileged you are, the more opportunities you'll get, and those opportunities make you even more privileged..."

I know the latest NZ election outcome was less than good, but jesus.
Tumblr post from user sapphia USA please listen to me: the price of “teaching them a lesson” is too high. take it from New Zealand, who voted our Labour government out in the last election because they weren’t doing exactly what we wanted and got facism instead. Trans rights are being attacked, public transport has been defunded, tax cuts issued for the wealthy, they've mass-defunded public services, cut and attacked the disability funding model, cut benefits, diverted transport funding to roads, cut all recent public transport subsidies, cancelled massive important infrastructure projects like damns and ferries (we are three ISLANDS), fast tracked mining, oil, and other massive environmentally detrimental projects and gave the power the to approve these projects singularly to three ministers who have been wined and dined by lobbyists of the companies that have put the bids in to approve them while one of the main minister infers he will not prioritise the protection of endangered species like the archeys frog over mining projects that do massive environmental harm. They have attacked indigenous rights in an attempt to negate the Treaty of Waitangi by “redefining it”; as a backup, they are also trying to remove all mentions of the treaty from legislation starting with our Child Protection laws no longer requiring social workers to consider the importance of Maori children’s culture when placing those children; when the Waitangi Tribunal who oversees indigenous matters sought to enquire about this, the Minister for Children blocked their enquiry in a breach of comity that was condemned in a ruling — too late to do anything — by our Supreme Court. They have repealed labour protections around pay and 90 day trials, reversed our smoking ban, cancelled our EV subsidy, cancelled our water infrastructure scheme that would have given Maori iwi a say in water asset management, cancelled our biggest city’s fuel tax, made our treasury and inland revenue departments less accountable, dispensed of our Productivity Commission, begun work on charter schools and military boot camps in an obvious push towards privatisation, cancelled grants for first home buyers, reduced access to emergency housing, allowed no cause evictions, cancelled our Maori health system that would have given Maori control over their own public medical care and funding, cut funding of services like budgeting advice and food banks, cancelled the consumer advocacy council, cancelled our medicine regulations, repealed free prescriptions, deferred multiple hospital builds, failed to deliver on pre-election medical promises, reversed a gun ban created in response to the mosque shootings, brought back three strikes = life sentence policy, increased minimum wage by half the recommended amount, cancelled fair pay for disabled workers, reduced wheelchair services, reversed our oil and gas exploration ban, cancelled our climate emergency fund, cut science research funding including climate research, removed limits on killing sea lions, cut funding for the climate change commission, weakened our methane targets, cancelled Significant National Areas protections, have begun reversing our ban on live exports. Much of this was passed under urgency. It’s been six months.

A catatonic woman awakened after 20 years. Her story may change psychiatry.
New research suggests that a subset of patients with psychiatric conditions like schizophrenia may actually have autoimmune disease that attacks the brain.
