New species description needed a picture of the head. So that I can measure stuff as if I was a phrenologist or something. Name TBA once we describe these, but you can already look how cute this species is!

Slighly blurred photo of the side of a wasp's head. The wasp is pinned, and we can just see parts of the body and pin, below the head. Long antennae, big eyes, rough texture.

HEY EVERYONE - NEW REPORT!!! NVIDIA is the largest company by market cap on the planet. But it hides key climate data, while claiming AI is going to be a 'net benefit' for climate. We (8 groups) put together the first ever broad critique of NVIDIA's climate record: ketanjoshi.co/2026/09/16/n...

Sminthurinus bimaculatus or trinotatus. One observation report on trinotatus and two on bimaculatus here in Finland. All of those reports are fairly vague and supposedly not necessarily true species identifications. #Invertebrate #Collembola #Springtails #Hoppstjärtar #Biodiversity

Sminthurinus bimaculatus/trinotus feeding on microbes, algae or fungus on decomposing wood.

Jag är I Vasaparken, taggad inför #denstoraklimatdemonstrationen. Jag är här för att vi riskerar att förlora allt vi håller kärt. Uppvärmningen går snabbare än under tidigare massutdöenden. Alternativkostnaden till en snabb, genomgripande samhällstransformation är alltså ett massutdöende.

On The Climate Brink, @zekehausfather.com and I break down the extent with which the coming El Nino event is a "time machine" of future warming. There is a bit of nuance to this, b/c long-term warming is fundamentally different from El Nino warming. www.theclimatebrink.com/p/is-this-el...

theclimatebrink.com

Is this El Niño a glimpse of a future, hotter Earth?

There are important differences between long-term global warming and El Niño warming
