It's still shark week, as far as I'm concerned. I got this silicone baby bamboo shark from a mermaid themed etsy store ten years ago and just had had to share the little guy! He is currently accepting snoot boops. ☺️

*anatomically corectifies your mothmen*

three mothmen, but their wings are anatomically more correct to various moths, making this almost a #SciArt piece
- shy little transparent wing moth mothman
- cheeky bubble but peach pink winged moth mothman
- angry orange plume moth mothman, the wings are horizontal

The audio is annoying because I’m a maniac. But I made a worm with worms in it.

Say hello to Florida's newest established species, Typhlonectes natans - the Rio Cauca Caecilian! You can read about their relative abundance, distribution, & natural history, in our brand new paper:

journals.ku.edu/reptilesanda...

Here is one individual I CT scanned that had 7 babies inside!

A 3d rendering of a CT scan of a Rio Cauca caecilian with transparent body and bone colored skeleton, showing 7 baby caecilians inside, each rendered in a different color - counter-clockwise from tail to head - red, orange, yellow, green, light blue, dark blue, purple.

Flash of Prey from @master4fancy.bsky.social is just as gorgeous of the rest of their toys and features really nice texture. The design is visually fantastic - but how does it work out in use?

Check out my thoughts in this review: www.fantasticfrost.com/review-maste...

we cannot protect fictional nsfw content and creators by throwing real-life porn and sex workers under the bus. we cannot protect lgbt content and people by throwing porn and sex workers under the bus. we all rely on freedom of speech and expression and must fight for that common goal.

Can I complain about this bullet? Absolutely. But would I recommend something else instead at this price? Nope, this one’s still a winner!

What does that mean? I've never thought about how trauma could impact libraries before, and I'm not sure I can come up with any examples.
