Kids and science: what could be better?
It's December!
Have you thought about year end donations?
If you're one of the lucky folks who has more to give this year, would you consider Skype a Scientist?
We accomplish a wild amount w/a shoestring budget & ONE staff member. Imagine what we could do with more!

The whale sanctuary project is licking their chops over the fundraising possibilities encased in this debacle. There is no sanctuary and the people in the area don't want it. Shellfish harvesting is closed due to toxic mine tailings in the proposed sanctuary area (what belugas eat).

An @effinbirds.com "Futuendi Gratia" shirt is always appropriate for a flight.
Sean Duffy: "Dressing with respect -- whether it's a pair of jeans and a decent shirt, I would encourage people to maybe dress a little better which encourages us to maybe behave a little better. Let's try not to wear slippers and pajamas as we come to the airport."

This is what you’re supporting when you support Skype a scientist. This, 4000 times every year.
The other day I had the fantastic opportunity to talk with 7th graders about genomes, brains and evolution 🧬🧠 🦑 thanks to @skypeascientist.bsky.social.
As is usually the case, I was amazed by the kids questions.
They even sent me these beautiful artworks :’)
