The best way to get your environmental science bisexual to leave you alone to do homework:

Hold up a graphing calculator like a crucifix. They will hiss and retreat back into the moss from whence they came

They're wanting to change the definition of water to see which water would qualify under the Clean Water Act...I wish I was making this up.

What this means, in layman's terms, is that not all water or wetlands would be under environmental protections, so some could legally be dumped in, scraped out of, or otherwise harmed.

The comment period for this is pretty short (just a few days left!) so please submit comments asking for ALL water to be protected.

Here are some of the sturgeon photos I promised from ages ago. This was at the Bonneville hatchery where they house Herman the sturgeon. He's proported to be 90 years old and 14ft long, but it's a title now and the one we saw wasn't the same fish as the original Herman. But the fish we saw WAS between 80-90 years old due to his size, according to his caretakers.

He's the big pale fellow in the far back of the pool. I'm his biggest fan istg. I got so much merch after crying like a baby at the joy of seeing these amazing fish.

If you're in the US military or National Guard, and are given an illegal or unconstitutional order, the GI Rights hotline (1-877-447-4487) is there to help give you the support you need to do the right thing by refusing it. It would be good to think about this now before it becomes a live issue for you and it would be smart of you to memorize that number.

divinity will stain your fingers and mouth like a pomegranate. it will swallow you whole and spit you out, wine-dark and wanting. you will reach for it again and again, greedy human fingers clutching at everything you can reach. the divine will curl its way through your veins and take you over, and it will not leave you quietly. i feel divinity in my bones like aching; like fire.

On April 16th 2025 the US federal government has proposed to change the interpretation of the endangered species act so that it no longer protects habitat.

This is open for public comment until the end of May 19th. Please comment and make your voice heard.

Wildlife need their habitat. If the ESA redefines harm so that habitat is no longer protected, the implications for wildlife would be catastrophic.
