There should be a law where you are exempt from getting up to go to work if your pet just got comfy on you

Birb on da playground from yesterday's adventures #cockatiel

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Just a playing Rosie birb. To make you happy. Because WE CAN ALL USE SOME HAPPY right frickin’ now.

The Council of Destruction, laughing down at me for thinking that three layers of cord protectors can possibly stop them from chewing through the chandelier wire. #cockatiels

Nutriberry date! Lol I call this a nutriberry sacrifice platform. I put nutriberries and other treats there, and they demolish them into bits. Yes, it gets messy. It gets vacuumed out every couple days and steam washed once a week. Anyway, Queso seems happy to have a lady friend to destroy with.

I just want them to be happy little old birds in retirement together

enjoy a full minute of cuppy scratches

Gotta do what you gotta do

He’s now put himself in the banana bread

Things my neighbors probably hear all day

Caught mid step. I look so graceful and serene #budgiesky

A U.S. passport used to be enough to visit the U.K. Now you need an authorization that bars most formerly incarcerated Americans, regardless of their growth. www.themarshallproject.org/2026/10/23/u...

Isn't she adorable? 💖😭 I think I will maybe try some target training with her to build trust. Maybe someday harness training. She is chill enough that I think she could be a candidate for going with me to vendor events eventually. So Mambo may join the ranks of Charlie and Pooka.

On a knee! Happy to be here! #budgiesky

Mood.

Tell your bird my bird says wassup #cockatiel

Scalp massage.

The chilly weather has arrived, but thankfully I have my own personal toe warmer. 🪶

Finding the right flock can be extremely healing. 🕊#mentalhealthmacaw #wisdomwednesday #macaws

Husted: "If they say that they're not going to vote for me, then tell them just to stay home." (This comment comes on heels of a dark money group with ties to MAGA Inc. spending $1.8M to prop up no name third party candidate Greg Levy in the Ohio Senate race)

Happy Harvest! #cockatiel #turkey

This feels right

I’m a shoulder gremlin grrrrr #budgiesky

She loaf

Won’t post the videos. But know that due to starlink hiccups, Russians are hunting people in cars, executing them with jet drones in Kyiv.

Looks like it’s Bad-Things-Happening-In-Britain o’clock. A few hours to Bad-Things-Happening-In-The-US o’clock.

Peeking from behind my green sun #budgiesky

I've watched science and public health collide in real time, from COVID to polluted air in South Bay San Diego. People deserve to understand the science shaping their lives, and a voice in the solutions. I'm thinking about a podcast built on that. Would you listen? What would make you tune in?

Having a fun Saturday fluffing around and chirping and perching on the hoomins! #budgiesky

For #BirdOfTheDay #Dawn, an attractive bowling pin (Pacific Golden Plover) at dawn.

2022: Banker Julio Herrera Velutini charged with bribery. Sept. 2025: His family pledges $2.5M to Trump's ballroom. Jan. 2026: Trump pardons him. That is elite impunity. End the two-tiered system of justice. Abolish the pardon power.

Remembering our "baby" Emmy on her hatchday. Emmy was always in the thick of things. She was a messy eater and liked to sleep with her bum in the air. She loved her tweetheart, Ozzie, and if she wasn't with him, she was hanging with the girls. She was so soft and smelled divine. We miss you, Emmy.

Still trying to understand how Napster got shut down, but Anthropic is going public and still hasn’t paid us authors yet after stealing our work.

A little boy bonding time #budgiesky

NBA champion Karl-Anthony Towns repping Novavax! As a science communicator I really appreciate KAT’s consistency in advocating for COVID vaccines, years after the start of the pandemic. For him it’s personal, he lost his mother to COVID.

Discovery+, one of the streamers now owned by David Ellison’s media monopoly Skydance, hiked its prices exactly one week after the merger officially closed. Employees have already been told to expect layoffs — while top executives received pay bumps. Monopolies are only good for the monopolists.

The best part of having me on your Teams meeting is that you might be treated to a guest appearance by a bird. Will she be on my head? In my lap? Stepping on the keyboard and accidentally causing me to leave the meeting? Who knows! Anything can happen. 🪶

Trump has canceled planned livestream of Fort Hood shooter’s execution, adding that only immediate families of the victims of the 2009 mass shooting would witness it.

Day 3 of regent parrot nest checks and look at this little cutie 🥰
