One year ago it happened with tangerine... and a squirrel 🤦. Had to run to get the poor one out of tangerine's mouth.

A grey tabby cat has stuffed herself into a small box. Her neck and head lean over the edge.

I did not wiggle out of my harness and catch a chipmunk today. I was framed.

#caturday

(The chipmunk was rescued and is presumably recovering. And it seems I need a better cat harness.)

The guy that said he won't touch crustaceans for months got fried rice with vegetables for breakfast, lunch and because I am insufferable I might do something for dinner with eggs, vegetables and shrimps...

A katydid nymph at the center of a yellow flower. The head of the katydid is clearly visible, with large green eyes and long black antennae that possess white dots along their length. The center of the flower shows its filaments and anthers clearly.

A katydid nymph at the center of a yellow flower. The insect’s body is clearly visible, with dark emerald colors covering its head, thorax, and abdomen. It also has orange patches on its back and black lines along its body. Its exoskeleton appears almost metallic in the very low after sunset light.

Look at the little fellow! I think it is nymph of katydid and I think it was feeding from this little flower.

Those eyes in the first pic are quite expressive I must say xD.

From floods to wildfires, new ideas are helping Europe adapt to climate extremes Many people expect a raging wildfire to leave a blackened, lifeless landscape in its wake. But after a blaze swept through Las Hurdes in Extremadura, Spain, in 2009, the scene was quite different. In ...

Europe is scaling climate adaptation by connecting regions with similar risks.

Over 100 solutions are being tested: from nature-based wildfire barriers to underground flood sensors, so what works can be applied elsewhere: link.europa.eu/xGvq3N 🧪

Ancient ‘machine-gun’ damage discovered on walls of Pompeii Recently uncovered damage to walls in Pompeii displays patterns that may have been made by an ancient “machine gun” called a polybolos

Good Monday morning, can I interest you in an Ancient Roman "machine gun"? 🧪

(Also this quote: "If anyone was going to come up with a bespoke repeating catapult, it would be Sulla.")

These incredible Buff Tip Moths blend in so well with branches that you might mistake them for sticks. Nature's masters of disguise are truly fascinating!

they might even had people to do that instead of doing it themselves....

Vibe coding, vibe building infrastructure and vibe diplomacy...

Screenshot of a palantir declaration: 15. The postwar neutering of Germany and Japan must be undone. The defanging of Germany was an overcorrection for which Europe is now paying a heavy price. A similar and highly theatrical commitment to Japanese pacifism will, if maintained, also threaten to shift the balance of power in Asia. 16. We should applaud those who attempt to build where the market has failed to act. The culture almost snickers at Musk’s interest in grand narrative, as if billionaires ought to simply stay in their lane of enriching themselves . . . . Any curiosity or genuine interest in the value of what he has created is essentially dismissed, or perhaps lurks from beneath a thinly veiled scorn.

Point 15: We believe Germany must rearm & Japan too! I know this suggests we haven't watched the past 3 years of news, but whatever.

Point 16: We believe a billionaire with a simple “vibe based infrastructure mindset” can build.

P.S.: Don’t put “...” before a period. EDIT your AI output FFS.

Extract of palantir declaration with a focus in: 8. Public servants need not be our priests. Any business that compensated its employees in the way that the federal government compensates public servants would struggle to survive. 9. We should show far more grace towards those who have subjected themselves to public life. The eradication of any space for forgiveness—a jettisoning of any tolerance for the complexities and contradictions of the human psyche—may leave us with a cast of characters at the helm we will grow to regret.

Palantir:

Point 5: We believe we can withhold fair pay or deny workers certain rights if we deem them unnecessary, with that threshold set by us.

Point 6: If we are stupid, perverted, or evil, we should remember that we are all human (some more than others).

P.S. EDIT the dashes lazy fucks 🤦!

This is a huge disappointment. It’s impossible to overstate how important this REU program has been to our community. I hope that the program will return. 🧪🌊
