Mama pseudoscorpion & her cute baby high in the mountains of Montana. Mama is half the size of a grain of rice. These harmless micro arachnids have no stinger, but can deliver venom to prey via their pincers. Also, they can walk backward. Also, you probably have them in your house. #BugSky 🐙🌿

A macro photo looking down at a mother pseudoscorpion and her baby. They're on a patch of pebbly, sandy substrate. These arachnids look kind of like regular scorpions but without a tail and stinger, which means they are to regular scorpions what corgis are to collies. The mama is dark orange with reddish-orange pincers, while the tiny baby facing her is translucent, with a bluish white cephalothorax and pale yellow abdomen.

It takes a lot to remove me from the world of a movie. But I was totally unprepared for the absurdity of sharks in the coliseum in Gladiator II. 💀

Going berserk about Ghost again. His body was built for him using materials from an alternate dimension, so whenever he is outside that dimension, he experiences chronic pain/cellular disintegration. Unfortunately, he can only spend so much time in the painless dimension because his ex lives there.

'You'll choke too' - an aerial embroidery landscape inspired by all the wildfires happening right now... I'm upset every time I smell smoke outside and somehow we have people starting them maliciously too! But we all breathe the same air so they'll choke too (1/2 - see thread for close-ups)

An embroidery hoop containing a sewn landscape from above. It shows a forest on the right, a line of fire and charred ground with smoke on the left. The smoke is felted wool.
