The @entsocamerica.bsky.social is supporting my American entomologist colleagues who have faced employment disruption due to the capricious and anti-science policies of the Trump administration.
If this is you or someone you know, here are the details:

President Donald Trump has nominated Brian Nesvik to lead the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
This is a worst-case scenario for our main wildlife agency.
Make your voice heard: Urge your senators to oppose Brian #Nesvik for director of the Fish and Wildlife Service. ➡️ biodiv.us/41OVTfe
Oh wow, this is going to be good!
Nerdy art project completed, featuring Sonic the Hedgehog and co. I didn't prime the tin properly...lesson learned, if I try this again! 🎨🖌️
Does anyone remember the movie Idiocracy?
Insects and birds are tightly linked. To help one, you have to also support the other. Native plants are so, so important for providing habitat and forage for insects, particularly pollinators.
Husky doing happy husky work! Finally hit the trails to slide away from 2023, and ride into 2024. #kicksled #dogsled #sleddog

Anyone out there really keen on video posts for social media? I'm looking for suggestions for apps that allow video editing and easy uploads to instagram in particular. I have issues when I want to work with high quality video that isn't always from a phone (ex. Go pro). 📱#videoediting #socialmedia
I just saw "that will feed two birds with one scone" as an alternative to the current idiom. I want to use this next time and see what kind of reaction it gets!
So I very occasionally get the chance to make art - it's been 2 years since I've painted but would like to start up again. I'd love to follow some folks to see the beauty of their work for inspiration. #sciart #natureart #watercolor #pencilcrayon
You know what's neat about this platform? Posts about public health not being spammed by unhinged anti-vaxxers. This is honestly where all the cool kids went. In other news, my fifth covid shot is onboard and I'm glad for it.
Hellloooo Bluesky!! I have escaped the dark pit poor twitter has become. I am so pleased to see that so many neat science-y folks are here. Looking forward to starting over, but also reconnecting. SHOW ME YOUR BEES AND SYRPHIDS
