The United States and Israel are a pair of rabid dogs that need to be put down for the safety and security of the rest of the world.

You should write about the evolutionary basis of storytelling?

Used to get stuck overnight there every time I flew in and out of Idaho. Can confirm it's not haunted.

Btw while I have you here, I'm just gonna fanboy out a LITTLE bit and thank you for everything you've done to inspire my own writing. You're on my Mount Rushmore of GOATs.

You're a man of action. Let me know what they say if you get a reply.

I agree, it seems like a Sisyphean task that only adds net suffering to the world, but I'd also be very interested to hear an Oregon wildlife ecologist give counter points.

And this is about the line where I feel out of my depth. My moral framework as a vegan and my training as an evolutionary biologist/ecologist make this particular topic quite difficult to disentangle in my own head. Plus, I'm not an expert in this subfield anyway so I degrees.

Hmm, I found it quite compelling. Sampling over 700 otters for a pathogen that requires the Virginia opossum to complete it's lifecycle and finding 22% infection rate felt like pretty good evidence to me. But anyway, my point isn't to justify opossum--or any introduced species--culling anyway.

Opossums are also well established nest predators, so the concerns about birds are valid, even if they are less destructive than raccoons or domestic cats. But we're touching on one of the most interesting discussions in ecology, which is: when does an introduced species become native?

Had no idea this existed! Very fun way to start the day. Wild to think it almost does seem quaint against the lived reality of today...

Would give just about anything for a VanderMeer-penned anti-ICE cosmic horror story set in Portland

Keith you don't have to sell it. We would read CSPAN fanfic if you wrote it.

RIP Jane Goodall. You were the best of us.

www.eea.europa.eu/en/europe-en... An important line from the 2025 Europe's Environment report that will get no coverage in the media: "...there is an urgent need for more sustainable dietary patterns in Europe." Goes on to directly encourage a shift away from animal protein. Not bad at all.

It's so rare that good things happen politically anymore that this is hard to believe! Let's go!

My whole experience publishing with @radonjournal.bsky.social has been nothing but positive. Great team, great vibes, great stories, great mag.

Just a couple more days until issue 10 of Radon Journal goes live, which just happens to contain one of my stories!

I missed @aptshadow.bsky.social's Cage of Souls when it came out in 2019, but I just finished it last night. My full thoughts are condensed into this (tinyurl.com/366vars8) Goodreads review. Adrian is a master, and I should very much like to meet him and have a chat one day.

One of my colleagues brought back (to the European Environment Agency) a pack of Reese's mini cups from a trip to New York. It has caused absolute chaos. People are forgetting to remove the paper wrappers. Brought to their knees to by the sugar content. Boggled by peanut butter and chocolate.

I guess this is as a good a time as any to get my Bluesky account up and running. I'm so excited to announce my story "Cinnamon" has been accepted by @radonjournal.bsky.social and will be published with the next issue, coming June 1st. Looking forward to connecting with all you writers out there.

@aptshadow.bsky.social Full sci-fi retelling of the Patty Hearst saga when?

I just read Their Souls Climb the Room in FSFTS... didn't think there was anything political there...
