Trump administration argues that more roads would help against wildfires The Trump administration is citing wildfire suppression as the reason it's seeking to undo the Roadless Rule. Science suggests more roads will cause more fires.

Building new roads in the wilderness makes forests more vulnerable to wildfires, not less. ​

“The density of ignitions was up to four times higher within 50 meters of a road than it was in wilderness areas,” explains Greg Aplet from @wilderness.org.

The EPA has postponed enforcing limits on methane emissions linked to oil and gas operations while it weighs the possibility of scrapping the rules altogether.

Just because a plant is non-native doesn’t always mean it is invasive. #nuance

So tired this morning that I poured my coffee into my yogurt. 🤦🏻‍♀️

This admin gets me in such a rage that melatonin doesn’t work so I just am awake playing Stardew and listening to the rain—trying to disassociate

This was a lovely thing that happened today. 🦋

BREAKING: Scientists are staging a “science fair” in the lobby of a Congressional building to tell elected officials about the critical knowledge the US will lose because their research grants have been canceled.

I’m doing the podcast solo this summer and if I don’t have a guest, I am immediately reminded why I prefer to have a cohost—

I don’t like just info-dumping. I prefer to discuss a topic with another person for a casual, conversational vibe.

Also if I do them by myself so far episodes are only 12min

I could but because I don’t sell enough to justify bulk, I currently do print on demand

God every single online 3rd party merch store seems to be allowing Alligator Alcatraz merch. I want a place to print and sell that doesn’t allow merch of government internment camps that don’t Violate human rights.

This will probably end up in the land of the Forward Party.

In a democracy, government employees can voice respectful dissent to their leadership. But today, EPA leadership retaliated against its own employees for expressing disagreement w/ the admin’s actions & policy directions. Punishing gov't employees for this expression is an alarming development. 🧵

That was the first Pokemon too!

Coming soon on @beesandreveryradio.bsky.social :

If you are freaking out because “omg we will never have elections again,”

Um no.
States run the elections, not the fed.

Also maybe remember indigenous and BIPOC folks have been fighting for rights for hundreds of years.

Feel what you feel but your discomfort isn’t an excuse to not fight back.

It’s definitely a symptom of humanity’s continued mental distancing from Mother Nature.

Did you know that Pokémon’s creator was an avid insect lover and autistic? He created the game as he saw villages become part of urban sprawl. He wanted to find a way for future generations to experience nature.

Metapod and Caterpie are based on swallowtails.

Sorry you dealt with that. We all have our stories.

Anyways, glad you were able to restrain yourself, I see you shared this exchange in a screenshot.

Thank you for the work that you do, but I think my unserious post isn’t attacking these creatures’ roles in in the ecosystem and biodiversity.

With all due respect sir, if you got to know me you might find that I am a huge advocate for the environment.

This is a silly social media post. They’re a mild annoyance. I am absolutely more nuanced on this, I am fully aware of their role in pollination and the ecosystem.

We wanted butterfly/bee/firefly summer but we got wasp/earwig/gnat summer.
