You ready for EELS?!

It's that time again- Advent Calendar time!!

Wanna learn about eels for 24 days STRAIGHT? Maybe leading up to Christmas, maybe leading up to Halloween, or your birthday, or your dog's birthday, or any number of auspicious days?!

Boy do I have the calendar for you.

Get one here!

Scratch off one orange box a day to reveal a fact about eels. it's like a lottery ticket, but you win every day because it's always facts about eels.

These calendars are the primary way that my science education nonprofit, Skype a Scientist, keeps the lights on. Calendars are totally critical for us to keep existing, and also share a bunch of cool science! It's a beautiful thing.

Skype a Scientist matches scientists with classrooms, scout troops libraries, and others for online Q&A sessions all over the world. We serve about 4000 classrooms a year and offer our program for FREE. We can offer it for free thanks to these advent calendars. It's a weird way to fund a nonprofit, but hey, it works.

We also run events in our hometown in Philly that often center art when communicating science! We host moth nights in the woods and in city parks to connect people with nature, and host events like Climate Change Crafting Night where participants create art that communicate important environmental messages! When we have enough money we even create community science murals!

You can always donate to support our org without buying a calendar here.

Reposts are incredibly appreciated. Running a nonprofit is a challenge! Tumblr helps a LOT!!

more people should talk about the fact that alberta canada is very quickly sliding town the same path that the southern us is irt anti trans legislature and putting trans minors in direct danger

did you know edmonton is censoring books with any reference to sex, sexuality, violence, or anything else deemed unfit for minors? even books that were fine half a decade ago for school assignments and curriculum

did you know that parents have to be notified for minors to use different pronouns or names in school - 15 and under need permission from parents to go by a different name or pronouns

did you know trans women would not be allowed in sports in alberta?

the premier is outright saying doctors are wrong for opposing these changes and movements against trans youth and trans people as a whole

it's worth noting that some of the proposed banned texts in edmonton school curriculums were beyond justcompletely fine when i was in school here (2016-2018)—watchmen went from being an approved ELA diploma text to being on the table for getting banned from school libraries.

margaret atwood has also spoken up in light of the handmaid's tale being on the drafted list of banned material by edmonton public schools

Character who acts how “horror characters are so stupid, if they made good decisions this wouldn’t happen” people want characters to act, but it’s not a horror movie and it’s abundantly clear that this person is paranoid beyond the point of being able to function
