I see some people ask me how to pin insects, so I would do a thread on how you can make your very own collection! I will be focusing on preserving hard-bodied insects big enough to be pinned. 🧵1/15

I emailed BLM and they replied with an updated link that shows the final solar PEIS and the alternatives.. check out the difference between the agencies preferred alternative 3, and the final alternative. Industry got everything they wanted and more. experience.arcgis.com/experience/269…

Crews have begun chainsawing and shredding thousands of protected Joshua trees to make way for a sprawling solar field in the Mojave Desert. Century-old trees become a pile of dust. “Once the trees go through the shredders, they vanish” bit.ly/4dSFEm6

I support better climate change mitigation policies. But Climate advocates telling me I have to sacrifice my desert home and Joshua trees and tortoises and burrowing owls…. No, you have to sacrifice more too

Have you stopped to appreciate a cockroach lately? Cockroaches get a lot of unjustified hate for simply existing. Species like this yellow glass cockroach (Chorisoneura sp.) from Ecuador can be charming if you take the time to view them in a positive light. I think it's beautiful
