There's nothing quite like walking the white sands and spotting a large bright orange lump 🧡 Ms Phidippus cardinalis #EmotionalSupportSpood

Large floofy jumping spider in the shade of a small plant in the white sand; she's bright red-orange on top, just a stunner. She's peering up at you

Ms Megischus bicolor, a very silly, very serious wasp. Very long.

Slender long wasp with a rough-textured red hed cd thorax, and shiny long black abdomen with an ovipositor as long as the rest of her body. Chilling on a fallen log topped with dry shrooms

Close shot of the creature's head. They're called crown wasps, because they have a rough knobby crown they use to burrow out of wood when they emerge as adults

You know when public attention can reverse a prosecutorial decision like this you almost get the sense that the decision to shrug it off in the first place was not based on an assessment of the quality of the evidence so much as an assessment of the seriousness of the crime.

My dad passed early this morning. We'd been estranged for ~8 years. It hasn't really hit me yet, or maybe it won't. It sucks to feel like this. He had so many opportunities to leave shitty christian cults, was miserable in them, but stayed. The grief I feel is what could have been, for him.

Princeton finally handed off some advance copies for the 2nd Edition of my wasp book, and they look phenomenal! Thank you everyone for your exceptional patience! Go order it right now!! press.princeton.edu/books/paperb...

A photo of me (a white woman with long brownish hair wearing glasses and a dark blue shirt) holding an advance copy of my book "The Social Wasps of North America, Central America, and the Caribbean: Second Edition" in front of an old wooden railing and some lush sassafras leaves. There is a big illustration of a bald-faced hornet on the cover.

This photo is slightly misleading, since it was taken by my mom a year ago in 2025, immediately before we noticed the major printing errors in the plate series that required us to completely redo the printing from scratch. My joy is nonetheless real, and I feel justified in using this photo since I never posted it the first time around. It's all good now!

Pelegrina tillandsiae, a salticid species so named because they live their entire lives in Spanish moss (Tillandsia usneoides). A fellow naturalist in Georgia introduced me to these pale children today. We love a highly specialized creature 🤍 #EmotionalSupportSpood 🧪

"reaching the stars" is what I did in Halo 1 after I'd completed it on every possible difficulty and now just wanted to see how many marines I could launch alive on top of the 2nd map (7) Sorry, humanity hasn't even beat the campaign on normal difficulty, we've barely learned how to drive

A pattern is emerging lately. Here's a post complaining abt resilience while not being resilient enough to make it through a stranger's fairly innocuous travel story on a social media website w/o feeling a revived "hate".

Post that reads, "I try to hate this website less and then I encounter things like a histrionic 8000 post thread about a diverted plane...many people need to attend some sort of adult Outward Bound camp to develop mental resilience"
