Hey guys, It's me Secret Pie. You all know I am a silly little artist and a Pie, but did you know I am also an entomologist?

After spending a grueling amount of time job hunting, I landed a great job at the United States Department of Agriculture. I got through onboarding and everything--but...then the federal hiring freeze yoinked that away. I made moving plans and now I'm on the backfoot and my life has been thrown into disarray.

If you work in a lab that does entomology/agricultural work or knows someone who does and your lab could use another technician or researcher, I will email you my resume.

I am not even kidding.

I have a masters degree, I am very punctual, and I can work in the lab or the field. I will move anywhere and will move immediately.

Reblogs appreciated.

(Entomology/ecology job hunting advice would also be very appreciated)

Many content creators have a "no politics" rule because they do not want to alienate fans or potential fans with "differing views". When the differing view is bigotry, however, they have no place in a community and it is the responsibility of content creators and community managers to ensure that a community is safe for marginalized peoples. Bugs are not a political topic, and neither is the assertion that trans rights are human rights, despite politicians' efforts to frame it as one. The art, games, and community I create are explicitly pro-trans and pro-lgbt and always will be. To everyone who agrees with this sentiment and supports my art, I love you and thank you<3 More pixel bugs on the way soon.

AI could probably generate better pixel bugs than me, but when you support Celestial Moonlight Games you are supporting real authentic homegrown bugs drawn with love :]

reminders for today:

if you or someone you know might need it in the next few years, purchase plan b. the shelf life of plan b is 4 years, and we might not be able to access it as easily as we can now in the days ahead.

if you are larger/plus size: go online and purchase ella instead of plan b. plan b is less effective if you aren’t under 160 pounds.

if you can, purchase books that project 2025 is looking to ban.

mass deportations are starting. if you see ice vehicles or agents, yell ice raid and la migra as loud as you can.

if someone asks who you voted for, keep your mouth shut. they’re fishing for traitors.

if anyone, anyone at all asks about your neighbors or their legal status in the us, you know nothing. don’t be the reason that their family is separated.

if anyone asks about your religion or lack thereof, keep it vague. this administration will look for any excuse to persecute you.

your friends are trans or queer? for the next four years they’re not. don’t expose anyone’s status as a trans or queer person to anyone else, even if you think you can trust them.

did someone you know get an abortion? no, they didn’t. they were never pregnant.

in short, don’t be a snitch, and keep to yourself these next four years. we’ll make it through this even if it seems hopeless at times.

this is all i can think of at the moment, but i’ll be adding on to this as the day continues.

we can survive this. we’ve survived before, and we’ll survive again.

what do you mean elon musk did a nazi salute on live tv at the united states presidential inauguration twice and is now erasing the evidence off the internet by replacing the footage with the crowd cheering instead?
