Three little caterpillars snug as bugs on a heliconia leaf 🌱🌿

Imagine if a woman president crashed the economy and started a war with no end in sight, and her biggest, seemingly ONLY concern was building a ballroom and redecorating the White House.

Ok. Back to posting cute things. Yeah, that man harassed me, then made sure I could not get a job anywhere else. But now my life is great. I might share with former colleagues who can’t afford to just move away like I did. Reap what you sow. Be nice, y’all.

Was wiping an old Mac for recycling & found texts with a former manager. Every comment he made from 2013-2018 when I switched to a new Mac. I filed a harassment complaint in 2019. School chose to fire me and keep him. This is a trove of abusive behavior confessions I couldn’t find at the time.

It is wild to see educators who berated me for promoting Wikipedia as a good starting point for research because it was considered unreliable now go around promoting the use of AI for absolutely everything, including writing IEPs. I’m just out of words.

From far away this weevil looks like it has an orange face. Up close you can see the face is covered with multicolored scales 🌿🌱

Moth week is over but I still have so many moths to share!! Look at the little tufts of hair on this Bathyra sagata. 🌿🌱 #moth

A final post for #mothweek Euclera meones, a new favorite. It seems like every time I go on a mothing trip here in Colombia I find a new fave. 🌿🌱

A beautiful spittle bug with a sharp sense of fashion 🌿🌱

We survived. Had to love the bed to where the water was not dripping and drove home this morning. Lovely moths, scary place, even if it looks this beautiful

Welp, it sounded like fun to rent this tiny cabin at the top of a mountain for the night. The moths were amazing. Now that a thunderstorm rolled in I feel like I’m in a disaster movie. It’s raining inside as much as outside and the lightning is wild. I’ll post a pic of the place if I survive.

A stunning moth from tonight’s shoot. Argyrosticta aurifundens looks like it’s made of coconut fiber. It’s all in the color variations. An amazing optical illusion. 🌱🌿 #mothweek

Moth week is coming to an end and tonight I’ve photographed 17 new-to-me moths. This is Phaeomolis lineatus. 🌱🌿 #mothweek

La Luna es de queso y Venus de Milo.

It is still #mothweek and I spotted this super cool diurnal moth today at Rio Claro. Urania fulgens, the Urania Swallowtail Moth. 🌿🌱

What AI does to your brain. Ophiocordyceps 🌿🌱

Sometimes moths look at us with puppy eyes. This is a moth in the genus Opisthoxia. 🌿🌱#mothweek

Hello, I am a TV weatherman in Punxsutawney, PA, and every morning at exactly 6 am my alarm clock blares out “I’ve Got You Babe.” And now the rest of the world is stuck in this endless loop as well.

Morpho butterfly wing. These gorgeous little critters fly like the Count’s bats on Sesame Street. They flap up and down awkwardly like they are attached to a fishing line. They never let me get close enough for a picture, but sometimes birds get them and I find their wings along the path. 🌿🌱

The 1997 Flores settlement says children can only be in immigration detention for 20 days. A new legal filing shows that kids at CoreCivic's detention facility in Dilley, TX have been there as long as 323 days, & includes firsthand accounts of the abuse guards are inflicting on children.

Trump Administration Routinely Violating Immigrant Children’s Rights - The American Prospect

The 1997 Flores ruling requires immigrant children be released from detention after 20 days. Trump is keeping some for as long as 323 days, new filings in a lawsuit state.

It’s #mothweek and here’s an insanely beautiful moth. These colors and patterns are only visible from the ventral view. The dorsal view shows a pretty plain black and gray moth with a couple of yellow and red dots near its head. Dysschema molesta. 🌱🌿

Let’s continue our #mothweek celebration with this gorgeous moth in the genus Agylla 🌱🌿

A moth in the genus Dirphia 🌱🌿 #mothweek

It’s #mothweek until my birthday and I’ll be posting some of my faves. If you take pix of moths, upload to @inaturalist.bsky.social and help the world celebrate these amazing insects. This is Crash Bandicoot in moth form, BTW.

Random AI bots sending random meaningless messages is the apex of human achievement. Got it.

It's so difficult to get cis people to understand the jk Rowling thing isn't that she doesn't like us so you should punish her. It's if you give her franchise any kind of support you are contributing to trans people being excluded from society

These two are the same insect, 26 minutes apart. The picture on the left is the regular appearance. The one on the right is what the insect looks like after it is scared and produces a chemical that spreads between its body and its elytra. 🌿🌱 #beetle #insect

I’m writing a novel about two haute couture houses feuding over stolen seamstresses. It’s called Pleated Rivalry.

I'm writing An Americal Tail sequel where the main character is all grown up. It's called Heated Fievalry.

When did I fall in love with Sam Neill? 1981 when my mom rented My Brilliant Career. I really don’t remember the plot. Just Sam Neill.
