Are there any women in this parade? I think I saw one maybe? I'm confused

America's many enemies: *confused*

Someone PLEASE find me the video of this

THIS PARADE COULD HAVE BEEN AN EMAIL 💀💀💀💀💀💀

#NoKings

The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

The #NoKings march in Dallas, Texas is HUGE!

Hortman and her husband are dead, says Walz.

If you can't attend the rallies today for whatever reasons, something useful you can do is scour your local news outlets for coverage and share the coverage on social media and pump it out to all of your networks. Amplify what's happening locally so others in your communities are aware.

At this time, Hortman and her husband are both confirmed dead. Hoffman and his wife are out of surgery and still critical but docs are optimistic.

Saw a Hamataliwa helia egg case sitting unattended, which isn't normal, and looked around the shrub until I found the mum, who seemed to have lost her dragline to her egg sac and was running frantically up and down a lower branch trying to find it. Reunited her with it. 🤎 #InvertebrateParenthood

My sis just shared this pic of her new kitten and very, very old shih-tzu snuggling, and y'all probably need this today

Please read the post here, for once I have a bit of faith in humanity restored 🧪

This is the slap back to Stephen Miller’s “arrest everyone” madness. And an admission that Trump is under pressure from multiple industries that rely on migrant workers. This is huge and important. Keep amplifying the harm done by the Trump/Miller zealous, cruel overreach. Don’t bury this.

Interesting update from the person who first called it out in the forums: "@procyonloiter and I just had a 3-hour in-person talk with @loarie and I am delighted to say that it has completely alleviated my concerns around this entire issue."

Got a lovely surprise this afternoon when a little yucatán mantis (Mantoida maya) dropped in for a visit! They are native to Florida but rare up north in my usual haunts. They're a fun mix of mantis, tiger beetle, and cockroach 🖤 #Invertebrates

Mantoida maya (the Little Yukatan Mantis) babies are excellent ant mimics and I love them so much. There were so many out today. An'tis 🥹

There are hockey assists. And then there are HOCKEY assists. Chelsea Gray is HER.

Wtf was that commercial just now on ION I don't even know what it was for, it was (cartoonized) severed limbs, guts, gore, people being pulled apart... Am I tripping??

I've cropped this photo of an ant lion so that now you are free to imagine its abdomen going on forever out of frame (these boys are loooooong)

I don’t really have words to explain how it feels to see Kristi Noem standing on a street in East LA that looks like the street I grew up on in East LA with an invading military force trying to kidnap people who look like the neighbors I grew up with. It stays with you, spiritually.

the new developments on inat inspired me to make a diagnostic thread for every insect order because there's only like 30something of them. going to try and avoid exceptions and extremely technical characteristics when possible. 🧵
