As I get into the sexual selection and sexual dimorphism part of my evolution module, a reminder:

In Northern Cardinals, the males are bright red. The females are a brown/gray, with orange beaks.

So if you see two bright red birds snuggling together on wrapping paper or a card: they're gay.

Everyone remember this Doonesbury comic from 2017? "That's guilty, guilty, guilty!"

MMR vaccine doesn’t just prevent measles, mumps, and rubella. It also prevents RFK Jr. from showing up at your child’s funeral to exploit your grief at your most vulnerable moment.

GOP voters being against the minimum wage and also wanting the world’s shittiest jobs to come to America and the good jobs to be eliminated is a real fucked position

Great poster, based on the Iron Front symbol from the 1930s in Germany consisting of social democrats, trade unionists, and democratic socialists. The original symbol was Down with Monarchism (radical conservatism), Nazism and Communism. Read history and hopefully, not repeat it!

Today, we’re celebrating trans communities’ vibrancy and perseverance in the face of attacks on their very existence -- and fighting for a future when all our trans and nonbinary siblings can safely live authentically and freely.

No hateful law or executive order can erase your identity.

If you think it’ll stop at Columbia and Harvard, you’re wrong. If you think it won’t go beyond universities to infiltrate all schools, you’re wrong. If you think it won’t demand compliance at media, medical, and non-profit organizations, you’re wrong. Fascism is here. Fight it.

🧵 The passage of this dangerous Republican funding bill is a travesty. The ongoing administrative coup led by Donald Trump and Elon Musk is a constitutional crisis. The authoritarians stripping away our rights and trying to loot the government to enrich the billionaires are a five-alarm fire.

The Prophet, Bob Marley, was born on Feb 6th 1945 in rural Jamaica, 80 years ago. His message rings truer with each passing day. "Get up, stand up! Stand up for your rights!"
