Yes! Let's gooooooooo! Omg where did you get those team mascot stickers? Those are great.
Nice to see that both teams are fielding a complete psychopath in addition to the classics. Yes, I'm looking at you, Pel's Fishing Owl and Boreal Owl 🤨

Ok, that Brown Wood Owl needs to model for a makeup company though
It's really neat to see this pic during the day when you can clearly see the yellow irises. I don't know why my brain kind of assumed these classically black-eyed owls just had really dark irises, as opposed to their pupils just being so large at night that you can't see iris at all
Very excited! I have the day off, and I've been looking forward to it
What a pretty guy! That injury sounds terrible for a bird. Does it heal on its own? Or do they need to do some kind of surgical intervention?
I know the blood flow seems obvious, but lesser known is the fact that phosphodiesterase inhibitors have direct impacts on the nervous system. There's a PDE4 inhibitor that is commonly used in Japan to treat post-stroke inflammation. (Also, caffeine is a weaker, broad spectrum PDE inhibitor.)
"Firstly, PDE5 inhibitors could enhance memory and learning by increasing long-term potentiation mediated by the glutamate NO-cGMP intracellular pathway, as cGMP-activated protein kinase is thought to mediate memory consolidation.
Secondly, as cGMP is a known vasodilator, the cognitive effects of PDE inhibition could be explained by enhanced cerebrovascular function owing to increased delivery of glucose and oxygen to the brain. Finally, improved erections might alleviate performance anxiety and boost self-confidence, with potential benefits to mood, cognition, and general health."
Oh these are the straight up Ru Paul of eagle owls. Look at that pose!
Oh, you think I only steal hoodies from people I boned. Joke's on you, no hoodie is safe in my presence.
I've had several great bosses through the years. Ones who considered teaching me and developing my skills/career to be part of their primary job duties instead of feeling threatened. I learned a ton from them.
My current boss is also amazing. I'm a nurse at a hospital that just unionized, and she really puts her job on the line to make sure we have what we need to keep the patients on our unit safe. She's a lot of the reason I didn't quit a long time ago.
What a wild family history!
It's so interesting to watch the retrospective reclassification of biology as we learn more and more. To compare what people thought they knew a hundred years ago with what we know now.
He's always been transparent about the fact that his parents helped him get started, and he's been financially operating on his own for years. Many of his videos are every bit as rigorous as Applied Science.
