In 2021, Kevin Faccenda started walking the University of Hawai'i campus, collecting every grass species he could find. Right outside the botany building, he found one that had never been recorded in Hawai'i. He's been working on grass taxonomy ever since.

The combination of this historical neglect and the profound debility of Severe ME make for a scary situation: in desperate need of social solidarity à la breast cancer 5ks or concerts for HIV/AIDS, but instead so sick as to fall out of public view entirely, confined to our homes or beds.

When we see fellow mammals submerged, we imagine our lifestyle of continuous breathing.
But pinnipeds live in a world where breathing is a task to be completed as needed, like we view visiting the bathroom, or eating a snack when hungry.
Just pinnipeds, living their best life.
