Not only the first snow of the year in Chicago, but first blizzard

And Pixel was crying to be let outside

I thought, why not. Everything sucks, might as well put the coat on so your cat can play in the snow at midnight

I got cold first. Her fur is thick

Here are cute photos to heal your timeline

The way I gay gasped when I saw a stack of free Maria Pappas calendars at my local coffee shop. Apparently left there by the photographer himself! 😯

I don't care if this is a quest shiny that everyone gets, this is how I feel about my beloved cotton candy Mareep

What are we going to do tonight, Brain?

Same thing we do every night, Pinky... Try to transgender the world!

They spent 8 million dollars on making mice transgender???

Let's see if I can make my Halloween costume before the party starts in 11 hours 😂

My current #PokemonZA fashion vibe is very Hot Topic and I'm fine with that

I'm also completely in love with my XL alpha Victrebell. My trainer could use her as a sleeping bag (minus the whole deadly vat of acid part)

My phone surfaced this photo from five years ago, and I had such a "who the fuck is that" reaction that I had to go put on the same clothes

The shirt says "If you want to achieve greatness, stop asking for permission"

It took a while, but I finally learned to stop asking #transjoy

Me and my poor Vivillon who just wants a potion, but dad had to immediately spend all his money on $15000 purple combat boots

Just visiting Lumiose City's premiere Pokémon genetic research center. Happy to report the DNA is twisted the right way 😂🧬

Bonus, they also understand that sex is more complicated than a simple binary

One of the highlights of #ASHG25 was reading the "I Advocate for Science Because..." wall

Not fun getting this notification as I'm sitting on the plane about to take off for O'Hare 😵‍💫

I'm very sad to be missing #NoKings because I'll be on an airplane. But I'm doing my own protest by not dressing "straight" like I usually do while traveling

The first time a video game ever asked me to type in my name was Pokémon Blue

My full name didn't fit, so I picked a nickname that I used from that point forward... Until I transitioned and changed one letter. I remember how good it felt entering Jey for the 1st time in a new game

Here we go again

I'm here at the Tempus booth, right behind ASHG Central! 👋 #ASHG25

I'm giddy about my swag haul today.

When I saw the Rosalind Franklin shirt, I gushed about her and said how I used her photo to represent humans in my thesis's phylogeny

It was supposed to be a raffle prize, but I was so excited they just gave me one 😂💖🧬

Hurts seeing so many of these notices during #ASHG25, but even sadder to see one with a Reviewer's Choice Award
