Artober 2020, Vunerable and endangered animals. Day 24: Aye-aye

The Aye-aye is a type of lemur that lives only on the island of Madagascar. It's the world's biggest nocturnal primate. They have dark brown fur and a tail that's larger than the body. Big eyes and ears and hands with long fingers where the middle finger is longer than the rest of the fingers. They use this finger to tap on trees and then listen for insect larvae hiding under the bark and then use the same finger to fish them out.

They are the only primate that uses ecolocation to find their food.

To many people native to Madagascar the aye-aye is seen as an omen of ill luck. For this reason they are often killed when spotted. This hunting plus loss of habitat is the biggest threat to the aye-aye. It is currently defined as endangered. The current population is unknown.

What you can do for the aye-aye:

-Support organisations that makes sure wildlife laws are enforced against illegal hunting and illegal trade

-Support wildlife conservation organisations

Just wanted to spread this twitter thread around as much as possible. It frustrates me to no end that Tiger King did all this weird Carole Baskin character assassination trying to make her look like she’s just as bad as Joe and Doc without ever properly explaining what Carole is doing differently and why it matters.

fun fact: any policy on drugs that isn’t harm reduction is going to cause addicts to suffer and die

fun fact: Drug addiction is a public health issue, and approaching it as if it were a law enforcement issue is prejudicial to addicts and will result in their suffering and death

if you just assume addiction is a method of self-medicating, you’ll pretty much never be wrong.

now, not everything people self-medicate for actually has a proper treatment. i’m pretty sure the reason my uncle made sure to be slightly drunk at all times ‘to round the sharp corners off of things’ was sensory processing disorder. i have that too, and i just kind of accept that i’m going to randomly get my brain sandpapered from time to time. there is no medication for that. all you can do is dull your senses. i’ve chosen not to, but i can’t blame him for his decisions. when a ringing phone feels like getting hit upside the head with a frying pan, liver damage sounds like a fair price to pay.

anyway, it seems really self-evident to me that people don’t enjoy living the life of an addict, they do it because the alternative looks worse. people don’t get addicted to substances just for funsies. they start making a habit of taking something because of insomnia, or grief, or headaches, or depression, or seething undirected rage and terror they can’t put a name to – something that they can’t ignore or shrug off. and for whatever reason – lack of access, lack of knowlege, lack of money, or it just plain doesn’t exist – they aren’t able to apply the Approved Correct Remedy. they use what they can get.

addicts aren’t some weird otherfolk who inexplicably just Do Drugs because they’re Bad. addicts are you with a problem you can’t solve.

these facts aren’t fun but they are pretty important

I can promise you that however bad you think drug addicts and/or alcoholics are making society, their experience of it is still worse. It’s the responsibility of policymakers to find solutions and treatment options that address the issue in such a way that views and respects addicts as members of society who need help and support, not external evil forces who need to be eradicated in order for society to function “properly.”

Thiiiiiiiiiiissssss. We lose too many good people to addiction. I know I have. We need to treat it as a medical condition, because that’s what it is.

frankly? ban all plastics. require all public buildings to be solar powered. public community gardens in every neighborhood. ban all pesticides. ban fossil fuels. put wind turbines on every sky scraper. gardens on every rooftop. tax cars and fund public transportation. build bike lanes across every city. train/railroad infrastructure across the country (tear down highways). every state mandated to have a certain percentage of land be a wildlife preserve. local/organic farms get huge tax breaks. raise the minimum wage. aquaponics farms in every city. every family has chickens in their backyard. community composting. jeff bezos’s body for fertilizer. i have a clear idea of what i want the world to look like and i want it now. hire me

bill nye has fucking snapped. if you say the words “chinese hoax” he’ll personally teleport to your location, set you on fire, and tell you that “oh no boo hoo you can’t stop being on fire because it costs too much money to not be on fire guess it’s just not worth extinguishing you”. he’d stab an oil company exec with knife hidden under his light blue lab coat. that man has gone off the civility rails, he is absolutely living, i admire him fully, we stan
