You're looking at velvet malachite, Cu2CO3(OH)2.

A few warnings:
Please resist the urge to touch it to feel how soft it is.
Absolutely /do not/ lick it.
Keep far away from any Supermen.
If a wingéd creature emerges, do not agree to any pacts.

Let's talk about the science here.

Some people have no sense of hummus... 😆😂🤣

Middle Age Riot @middleageriot I block Trump trolls for the same reason I scrape dog shit off my shoes: not because I'm "afraid" of dog shit, but because dog shit has no inherent value, creates a huge mess, and makes everything smell like dog shit. Trump trolls: to clarify, in this analogy, you are dog shit.

THE STRAIT STORY For the love of God, when will the media stop reporting what Trump says, and start reporting the truth?

Büyük Yeni Han #Istanbul
There are several old Hans in İstanbul. They are built as trade centres and they continue to function in the same way even today and offer plenty of good opportunities for photography.

My brain refuses to accept just how BIG elephant seals are, with male southern elephant seals (Mirounga leonina) reaching 4,000 kg (8,000 lbs).

They also, apparently, have strong views on internal combustion engines.

But I want to talk about how they dive WHILE SLEEPING.

Black-and-white photo of a group of soldiers riding on a large wagon at Vimy Ridge. The men wear military uniforms and helmets, many smiling and raising their arms. Several sit along the edges with their legs hanging over the side, while others stand behind them. A soldier walks beside the wagon in the foreground. Another wagon filled with soldiers follows behind on a dirt road lined with bare trees.

On April 9, 1917, the Battle of Vimy Ridge began.
One of the most famous battles in Canadian history, it saw four Canadian divisions fighting together for the first time in the battlefields of France.
Here are the stories from that battle.

I suppose you could fake being a really bad photographer 😉

Imo I don’t think you qualify 😁

Continuing Crisis in Strait of Hormuz: Why Iran’s Hold is Illegal and U.S. Military Force Alone Fails Former US Navy Commander, JAGC provides a legal and operational update on the Strait of Hormuz crisis amid Iran’s shipping blockage and tolls.

Current situation in the Strait of Hormuz is untenable.

The Strait is not "open."

The Iranian toll-collection regime, left in place by Trump-Hegseth deal, is "in flagrant violation of the law of the sea.”

Wayne Maddison (waynemaddison.bsky.social), professor emeritus at UBC, captured this video of a nearly transparent jumping spider (tribe Amycini) from Canandé Reserve, Ecuador.

Look closely & you'll see the principal eyes moving as it scans the area visually.
