I don't know what I want to do in school anymore. I thought about it the other day "am I going back thru healthcare bcuz I really want to? Or bcuz it's familiar?" I like medical stuff, I'm good at it, but idk if I want to go thru all that. And the violent ableism. I fight enough for my dignity as is

Natural history museums are constantly moving specimens between one another, and undertaking important conservation work. But in the Fall of 2025, there was an unprecedented amount of work on public display. We're curious where those specimens are now… (Video from Mitchell Collier.)
