Yeah, after reading about her being very public and adamantly against the troubled teen torture camps, I had to really confront the assumptions I’d made about her in the past. She’s a very privileged person who’s doing an important thing for some of the most vulnerable people in society. I have a ton of respect for her!

Wait’ll you see them swim!

I, for one, am sure I’d be rapt.

If he doesn’t get killed by an American fighting for Ukraine, he’s still going to be under fire from weapons from the US. I bet that feels bad.

It’s a bad title. We’ve known about kleptosomes for a while, but this study talks more about how it works: how the stolen organelles are maintained by the animal and used as an energy source when there’s no food. (Interestingly, when they start to break down the commandeered chloroplasts, the plasts degrade like they do in nature, leading to a color change for the slug!)

This cat is perfect.

Update: This cat is so pretty, they make me want to hug my cats again, that’s how perfect this cat is

TIL that horses start off as nightmare-shod animals D:
