You know what there needs to be... On the door or out in the hallway of the laundry, where everyone can see, a light bright as hell that won't turn off until the dryer is empty.

I'm on board for pre-Autumn pumpkin spice when it's this cute!
Our new little pumpkin spice addition has a name. Meet Pavitra which means "Sacred" in Nepali. ❀️ Adira's three-month old red ball of energy has been keeping mom's paws full as she learns to climb and explore on her own in the den.

These are my new favorite things. I just bought the new S'more Chunk, limited edition, because how could I not. Even flavors I usually don't usually like, like coconut, are delish! Visit BUILT to get 15% off your first order! i.refs.cc/hnrpDNN4 i.refs.cc/hnrpDNN4?smile_ref…

Lots of deadlines at work, got COVID, grandma put in hospice, a tropical storm is threatening San Diego, and my nephew said "bro sus" about something I said. What a week.

Listen, we shouldn't have World Elephant Day right after World Lion Day, that's an overdose of African megafauna. Spread it out a bit. And Elephant Day is also completely overshadowing World Hirula Day, both on the 12th. And now the energy's drained for International Wolf Day.

Fantastic to hear the voices of two rangers, representing those who are on the forefront of conservation. Not only for protecting wildlife, but also for monitoring, collecting data, and contributing to the scientific process. #ICCB2023

Capy to report that Rosalina and Bowie are the new proud parents to four capybara pups. Don't let their little legs fool you, these little pups are already up and, on the move, following mom and exploring their new surroundings.

Amazing to be at the opening ceremony of #ICCB2023 in Kigali, Rwanda - 1200 plus #conservation scientists and practitioners here, representing over 100 countries. Excited for the next few days - lots of people to meet and science to absorb!

Just picked up my poster. It was supposed to be on fabric printed at the top so there's whitespace only at the bottom. It's paper and centered. Too late to do anything now! It looks super nice. I just didn't want to do international travel with a poster tube. Oh well. I tried.

We're one week out from the opening of @ICCB2023! Who's coming? Who's presenting? I have a poster "Tracking Diversity and Genetic Health of Lions Reintroduced to the Zambezi Delta". So come say hi during Poster Session II!

What's with today? The level of crazy outside my hermit hole is almost unbearable. Is it the heat?
