Narragansett Bay Mollusc Institute

Molluscs are very fond of public libraries

Avians have no role at a clambake unless someone has a pet Rhody Red who wants to peck the corn cobs and shucks

The right side of history

I really try not to act like a crazy person but nice progressive Democrats telling you point blank "we can't do anything to stop people from breaking the law or being outwardly dangerous sociopaths because they might get mad" is an awfully familiar place for anyone in cycling/pedestrian advocacy

They make fine bait, much better than innocent and highly charismatic squid and bivalves

A squid has more spine, truly

Crypto reserve this, Bitcoin bailout that, where is the strategic oyster reserve huh?

We can't think of anything better

For a glass of calm may we recommend the clam-in-a-can

The consensus among our mollusc community this week, both bivalve and free swimming, is overwhelmingly supportive of the eagles victory this past weekend; despite skepticism over supporting "birds" in general

Solidarity with our international brothers. I hope they're unionized with a good overtime compensation agreement

Maybe we're cynical but here at the institute we're wondering what took him so long to come to this conclusion, and a little worried about the judgement of someone who need that much time to work it out

Pete is a keen meteorologist and his insights should not be disregarded

Might as well be taking a moon snail's word it will steer clear of radulating holes in clam shells am I right?

With a pristinely shoveled driveway of course

🙏🏻🙏🏻 the work ethic and community-mindedness of a clam

When the Patriot Act was passed, libraries got requests for patrons’ borrowing history. We were prohibited from disclosing those requests.

We deleted and shredded those records and stopped tracking reading history for that reason.

ALSO.

The Mollusc institute would like to remind all terrestrial residents of the Narragansett Bay watershed to shovel their damn sidewalks

This brash encroachment won't be forgotten, or forgiven, by the mussels and associated bivalves anytime aoon

Whether or not molluscs can feel fear as we understand it is up for debate, but every member of the phylum I've spoken to has made it clear they think RFK Jr is unfit for the position

Though the institute itself is not reliant on federal funds, the scallops of Greenwich Bay and the Upper Narragansett have issued a formal statement, calling the administration's freeze "a desperate attempt to avoid giving the scallops what they're owed"

Spice up your nachos this season with the addition of delicious Narragansett Bay Minced Clams

This belongs to the clams now and you can pry it from their cold dead abductor muscles

Can we please stop with the distractions and focus on what's really important? Expanding the washington bridge from 6 lanes to 6 lanes but wider, so I don't have to take my foot off the gas when I cross?
