JIM HENSON wrote a letter to his Children to be opened after his death. It’s entirely beautiful.

This wouldn't have been an issue if the organization bought a $1,000 NAS and populated it with a few hard drives.

The ocean is now "reaching temperatures that could roil marine ecosystems and sap the ocean’s ability to take up carbon dioxide from the air" Its the end game for arrogant humans as the ocean begins to fail as a carbon sink www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Ocean temperatures set to break all-time record: what’s next?

High sea surface temperatures are expected to weaken ocean carbon sinks and damage coral reefs.

Japanese Artist Akihiro Higuchi uses beetles as unique canvases for his far east infused artworks.

A vertical studio photograph showcases an extraordinary miniature artwork by contemporary Japanese artist Akihiro Higuchi, who paints directly onto preserved insects. A large stag beetle serves as a literal canvas, adorned with intricate, lacquer-style motifs reminiscent of traditional Japanese textiles and family crests (kamon). The beetle is mounted symmetrically against a completely flat, neutral pale grey background and is oriented vertically with its head facing up, highlighting its prominent, curved black mandibles. The natural black exoskeleton of the insect forms the base color for the painting, which Higuchi meticulously applies across different anatomical segments.

The head of the beetle is painted with delicate, symmetrical sprigs of white foliage flanking a central, gilded circular crest that contains a precise five-pointed star or flower emblem rendered in gold lacquer. Below this, the thorax is covered in a dense, overlapping cluster of golden-yellow chrysanthemums and slender leaves, creating a rich floral band across the beetle's midsection. The elytra, or wing cases, feature a complex background pattern of a green-and-gold basketweave or checkered textile design, over which a cascading branch of gold chrysanthemums runs vertically down the center line where the wing cases meet. The entire artwork exhibits remarkable precision, blending the natural organic textures of the insect—such as its jointed legs and spines—with the highly stylized, decorative aesthetics of historic Japanese material culture under crisp, even lighting that casts a faint shadow for dimensional depth.

Happy Juneteenth and all that. Your friendly neighborhood comic writer and editor still is in need of some assistance as life has gotten pretty bad, and don’t want my family and I to suffer. Anything you can spare helps us with food and bills to not drown. ko-fi.com/devinarscott...
