Disappointed, though not surprised, I began to describe various life- saving components of USAID’s global health portfolio, highlighting how we prepare for and respond to emerging pandemic threats; support the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis, malaria, and HIV; and immunize millions of children from the deadliest childhood diseases. I spoke for about five minutes, focusing primarily on our infectious diseases work and hoping to keep the attention of people who seemed to have no experience—or interest—in global health. When I finished, the room was silent, the political appointees looking at one another in what appeared to be disbelief. The silence was broken by Ken Jackson, who chuckled softly and shook his head. “Wow, there really is so much that USAID does that we never knew,” he said. “This is the story that needs to get out there.” Joel, also smiling, chimed in next, echoing Jackson’s amazement. “I had no idea you did all this,” he said. “As a Republican, when I think of what USAID does in global health, I assumed it was just, you know, abortions.”
This is NUTS

"They said they wouldn't pay me and would use AI instead if I didn't give them a lower price"
They're bluffing. They already tried AI and it didn't work so they're contacting you.
No one goes "I'll pay you or do the free one" they just do the free one, see that it's crap, and do the paid one.
Also, most people pushing back against greyhound racing are working class. Nearly every time I bring up the cruelty of the greyhound racing industry with local people, they are already aware of it.
And regardless of how popular greyhound racing is or isn't, it should still be banned.
Purr-fection 🤌
On top of reasons of role deconstruction and bodily autonomy, this is one reason why it's so important to many people in power to eradicate trans folk.
If you're secure with yourself, feeling good BEING yourself, they can't tell you you're broken and then sell you a "fix"
Love this art!

A pale, slender left arm and hand hold out a tall, skinny plant with small green leaves and yellow flowers, with the roots bare at the bottom.
Didn't feel like going to the gym, so I spent some time ripping up Scotch broom instead! 10/10, great workout. #InvasiveSpecies #InvasivePlants #HabitatRestoration 🌿
Every single one of the astronauts who went to the moon and back on Artemis II was educated at a public school.
Thinking of the teachers who poured into Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen tonight. You helped send a kid to the moon!

New chicks, who dis? 🐣
A view up a grassy green slope with tall conifer trees in the distance. There are green bushes to the right, and in the center of the slope are plants with big green leaves and yellow, lamp-shaped flowers. The sky is perfectly blue except for a few wispy streaks of cloud overhead.
Sometimes resistance looks like ignoring the workaholic voice in your head that tells you that everything you do must be productive. Today instead of actively surveying plants or IDing species, I finally decompressed enough to just sit and watch the rest of nature around me.
I keep seeing "all authors use AI, the real issue is they're being forced to be sneaky about it" headlines.
Full stop No. This is a lie peddled for normalization. It's schoolyard-level pressure tactics "C'mon, all the cool kids are already doing it. We won't tell. It's fine. We're on your side."
Start of a new month, may as well promo my Ko-fi if anyone feels generous enough to support! There's even monthly art options or open YCHs/commissions available!
