Hello Insectphile Friends!

I’m giving a casual presentation to a “ladies lunch” group next week about insects. I can talk for days about insects, both scientifically & emotionally, but that’s just me.

Tell me & help me, what should I include about why YOU love insects?

Hugs & Bugs!
💚🪲

I'm entering a period of funemployment. My goal is to brush up on a bunch of learning and to try not to become as nocturnal as my body clock wants me to be.

Merry Festive Day to all of you! I hope a man in a red costume magically broke into your house, deposited a bag of joy, a box of happiness and then removed his animals from your roof.

I can't speak for him, but I certainly still think about this with alarming regularity.
Wonder if this still keeps him awake at night

I've been really getting into coffee making at home. Gone full James Hoffman and Lance Hendrick.

I just made an incredible espresso shot at home. Anyone who's been on this journey knows how much effort that is.

Celebrate your own wins, however small they seem.

Watching a barista in a busy coffee shop is a very entertaining experience. Don't tell me it's not a skilled job when they're juggling several orders at a time and not breaking a sweat

When a company sends me a letter or email with a call to action "Do this now!"

It's a certainty I'm not going to do that and will probably never do that. It's the way I'm wired, sorry companies

A lovely happy end to this story
Anyone out in Bath today. If you spot this bike and tell me where it is I will pay you fuckin handsomely. Pop a lock on it I’ll literally give you £500.

Tried to use a coin for scale to show the size of this spider. It looks like I'm trying to pay her off.

This is what would be considered a very large spider in the UK.

"... if children miss a day or two in the first couple of weeks of term, they're more likely to go on to be persistently absent."

Or possibly those who are going to struggle to go to school because it can be a hellish landscape for ND kids will very likely be overwhelmed in the first few weeks?
Minister warns parents on school attendance ahead of new term
It comes as data shows children who missed some of the first week of school were more likely to be persistently absent.

FYI @cstrawbridgeart.bsky.social there's someone pretending to be you sending out fake PayPal links

@cstrawbridgeart.bsky.social PayPal is currently saying you don't skip to my UK address. Might be some configuration issue there that could put customers off. I'll message you on your contact form with details

Which TV series have you rewatched more than once?

Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.

Still amuses me that Dwayne Dibley's haircut is considered cool these days. All the cool guys look like the most nerdy imagining of a cool character in Red Dwarf
