My most old-coded opinion is that stuff should work

A fly with red eyes that are shaped upward like horns. The fly has pale legs and underside with brown on the top of the head and a brown and tan striped scutum. It is standing on an off white mushroom.

Two flies with red eyes that are shaped upward like horns. The flies have pale legs and undersides with brown on the top of the head, a brown and tan striped scutum, and a dark brown and pale striped abdomen. The fly on the left is getting ready to shove the fly on the right with his front leg.

Just a lil guy defending his mushroom.

We found a log covered in mushrooms and spotted some small hammerhead flies on it. Turns out these are feisty fruit flies and the males are serious about defending their patch. One of our coolest finds so far! #invert

So once again a man started a wildly successful harassment campaign against a female celebrity who didn’t actually do anything and the internet swallowed it full throated, and the whole thing is revealed to be concocted horseshit he can’t muster anything more than “sorry that happened I guess”

A digital drawing of Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov from series Heated Rivalry. In a close-up shot focuses on their faces, Ilya is holding Shane from behind. There's a tiny drawing of Snoopy and Woodstock next to their faces. The draw is inspired by a behind-the-scenes photo of their actors Hudson and Connor posted on IG Story @jennyfrommclauch

Quick #hollanov sketch bc i'm so very weak for them

Telling all the gym bros semen has as much protein as a chicken breast just to see if I can kick off a little Heated Rivalry action.

Sounds like bait, do you think they'll swallow it?

My first Maple-leaved Goosefoot Chenopodiastrum hybridum. Found by sharp eyed, excellent botanist @nickaston.bsky.social recently nr Catherington, Hampshire. @bsbibotany.bsky.social

Hidden in each 30cm seedpod of the Yellow Horned-poppy are hundreds of black sculptured seeds.
Each is a work of art that may be eaten by a finch or scattered by the wind into the shingle to grow another year...

Dr. Dmitri Daskalakis, who resigned from the CDC says that RFKJr said he believes that Avian flu should be allowed to "burn through" the chickens and then children and others, so we can propagate a "stronger species". RFKJr believes in eugenics.

RFKJr needs to resign or be fired.

I live in DC - the National Guard just hang out around the monuments; tourists take selfies with them like they’re statues, there are Humvees parked next to food trucks, and they’re guarding the Capitol like it’s the last beer in the fridge at a frat house. 🤷‍♀️

Damn. I gotta pull out this bad boy then.

this is an unpopular stance for a writer to take, but I think that if you're going to continue to be a Celebrity Writer and reap the social benefits of that, it sucks to not deliver the story you promised people. I do in fact think he owes you that

As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous.

Forcing elected officials to sign “permission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.

Today in history, 2019: One hundred activists, officials and other concerned citizens hold a funeral for Okjökull glacier, which had completed melted. Located in western Iceland on top of the shield volcano Ok, the glacier had once covered 5.8 square miles. /1

Close-up of the English version of the commemorative plaque installed at the funeral for Okjökull glacier in Iceland. Written by Andri Snær Magnason, the plaque warns that all glaciers will be lost to climate change if we don't take action.

The activists installed a commemorative plaque titled “A Letter to the Future,” warning that all glaciers face the same fate due to climate change. The plaque, written in both Icelandic and English, ends with the global atmospheric CO2 reading for that month: 415 ppm. /end
