today is #MothersDay. i remember when THING1 kicked me hard enough for me to reckon, OMG A HUMAN IS INSIDE ME.
to this day, i admit i became a mother because i see motherhood as my own “Mutual of Omaha, Wild Kingdom”. my babies were my portal to living in my own human zoo (shoutout to Desmond Morris).
yeah. am a dork.
the thing is, the more i learned to see us as apes, the more i understood how powerful empathy is, especially in motherhood.
gorillas made me a better mom.

the 1970s were so full of scientific hope in popular culture. we had Jaques Cousteau, David Attenborough, Carl Sagan, Diane Fosse, Jane Goddall. it feels like it was a loooong time ago.

David Attenborough is the secular St Francis of Assissi

d’awww the baby gorillas are sitting on David. i remember how people were totally freaked out that they were able to record that.

so they were the first team to ever record a full pride of lions hunting?!?!? it’s not only because it happened over a few days, but it was because the lionesses were using their Land Rover as cover from the wildebeest they eventually attacked.
lionesses getting shit done with human tech.

am loving seeing Sir David read from his yellowed #LifeOnEarth travel diary. it’s like his captain's log and he reads it as such.

Building blocks for the origins of life
Arguably one of science’s greatest unanswered questions is how life got started here on Earth in the first…

Japan hauls rare earth-rich mud from deep sea in bold test mission
Story by BeckhamLangford
Feburary 3, 2026"Japan’s own planners acknowledge the uncertainties. Jan briefings on the test mining plan stressed that, However, key aspects remain unknown, including the quality of the minerals and the economics of lifting and processing such vast volumes of mud. Mining the mud had previously been seen as too expensive compared with land-based deposits, and even with new technology, the cost of pumping, dewatering and refining the material at scale is still an open question. Analysts also point out that any move toward commercial production will face intense scrutiny from environmental regulators and coastal communities, who want clearer evidence on how sediment plumes, noise and habitat disruption will affect #DeepOcean #ecosystems around the site."

All life on Earth comes from a single ancestor, and it existed far earlier than we imagined. It’s amazing to think we’re all connected at the very root of life. What do you think this says about our place in the universe?

@kim_harding Wow, autotrophic #fungi?! Radiosynthesis is such an amazing idea... (#Lichen, don't feel threatened, you won't be displaced - just kept company:)
Are they fixing carbon, and into what? (O=C=O + H2O into glucose, or is that a bit same-old?)
