CW: death

I used to find funerals so pointlessly sad that I wished we didn’t have them, but I’d give anything to be able to attend a service for my therapist who died this week

I just need some closure, but there’s been no obituary, no mention of her passing anywhere

1/4
I mean, if I just logged into our zoom link tomorrow maybe she’d just be there and it would turn out that the call I got from her office was just some sick joke?

Wow I don’t handle grief well, I’m so blessed to not have had to deal with it too much so far in my life

2/4
So anyway, fuck covid, mourning is important and it’s such a tragedy that in a time period filled with so much death the very thing that helps us process death is inaccessible

3/4
Huge thank you to everyone who has reached out to me in the last week! I know losing a therapist isn’t the same as losing a family member or long-time friend but she was a very important part of my life and I’m feeling the loss terribly

4/4

Trying to make wildlife biology more diverse?

Don’t forget disabled people!

If you’re looking at a #fieldwork job candidate in a zoom interview and think “I don’t think they look like they can physically handle this job” examine your biases

If someone reads the requirements and thinks they are capable of doing the job why make the assumption that they can’t?

Disabled folks know their limits better than you do

On paper, I shouldn’t be able to do fieldwork well— I’m overweight, I had three reconstructive surgeries on deformed feet, I have an autoimmune disease that makes it hard to regulate my core temp.

But I love field biology, and this’ll be my eighth successful field season

It is the N. American songbird breeding season, AKA time for my annual #bird & #birding PSA:

Don’t kill #cowbird brood parasite eggs/nestlings! It is illegal and likely doing more harm to your birds than good. How? Behold, a mega-thread: 1/37

Before I start, know I’m going to be citing lots of academic articles that are likely behind a paywall. If you want to know more about the articles and can’t access them please DM me! Science should be available to everyone, but that is an argument for another time. 2/37
