Little bit of National Geographic action in my own backyard. This rare little one is called Bacotia claustrella or Shining Smoke. As far as I'm concerned the little one looks like a Jim Henson puppet straight out of Labyrinth. Magical ✨✨✨ #insects #rarebugs

One of the local #grashoppers just cleaning its feelers. Another glorious accomplishment of the Sony Xperia macro lens. I love it. ✨ #sonyxperia

I am, first and foremost, mighty impressed with the macro lens on my Sony Xperia - but even more with the perseverance this ant is showing trying to drag something that must be at least 15 times its own weight. Bugs are awesome. #bugs #sonyxperia #macrolens #ants

Agreed.

By 2030, 1 in 4 women in developed countries will remain childfree. Up to 45% will be single by choice. Society will frame this as a crisis. Governments will panic over birth rates. This is about choice though… It's about women walking away from the roles that kept men comfortable and powerful.

#Bugs are often absolutely gorgeous, if one bothers to look close. #insects

Not sure how many people expected @bearmccreary.bsky.social to do a seated metal concert in Brussels - but I was having a blast. Headbanging and vibing in my seat. The Singularity works so well in a live setting and Brendan is an amazing vocalist. ✨✨

Agreed. I find it quite a relaxing experience which is saying a lot when it comes to social media.

Bluesky is collegial and interesting, the way Twitter used to be. Bonus: most people can spell.

All creatures big and small slowly awakening in my garden. This to me is what #gardening is all about.

When you're reading a Murakami and the bit about the Nazis reminds you of current events. That's not great, is it? 😶
