Slime mold, Craterium minutum on lichen, Parmelia sulcata. NWT, Canada.
#lichen #fungi #fungifriends
The slime mold sporangia are only about 2 to 3mm high.
Photo of a dozen or so tiny, bronze coloured slime mold sporangia that look kinda like tiny cups on short stalks…the cups have covers. The slime mold is on a green, leafy lichen.

US judge allows Massachusetts offshore wind project to resume construction, blocking Trump pause
A federal judge on Tuesday allowed Vineyard Wind to resume work on its Massachusetts offshore wind project, which President Donald Trump's administration halted along with four other projects last month due to national security concerns.

I've been listening to Marie Kondo's books while falling asleep, + letting her ideas & my subconscious be in dialogue + take the reins (my consciousness gets attached to stuff just by looking at it). Super SUPER helpful w/this big decluttering & reorganizing kick I've been on.

I must have missed the 200 news stories about how it feels to be the target of VIRULENT racism by the Federal government.

We've been subjected to 2000 stories about Trump voters though.

It's #ForestFriday again, whew! I hope everyone's had a nice week/holiday/days off. Here's an archives shot from the Glenveagh National Park in #Ireland.

#photography #nature #trees #forest #woods #eastcoastkin #friday #donegal #green
A tangle of green is the first impression of this forest shot: the ground is covered with soft green grass and moss, and the dark trunks of the trees are lumpy and bumpy as they twist towards the sky. The canopy is shadowy green and the sky peeking through the trees is overcast.

Grinding through Federalist Paper 68. Grim stuff given our current political situation. They're like this country is sooooo big of course we're only going to elect men to the office of the Presidency based on merit, we are NOT creating a king just calm down guys.

Amazing!! Women Help Women (womenhelp.org) is manufacturing their own abortion pills in order to make abortion safer, simpler and more accessible across borders. They designed an eco-friendly combi-pack that's easier to mail discreetly and centred around women’s experiences and needs.

These poor STARVÈD babies suffering from the lack of second breakfast while mother viciously ignores them to play on her phone. A cruel, cruel mother indeed to need such reminding as her babies WASTE AWAY. 🤣
Two cats on a plush white rug. One small gray and white one looks up at the camera plaintively with one paw raised. The other, large, black, and fluffy, is reaching up with a paw and claws fully extended, a look of pure pitiful desperation in his eyes.

The Fulbé constituted another significant scholarly diaspora in the region, especially the Toroɓɓe clerisy, which included some of the most prominent scholars in the kingdoms of Bornu and Bagirmi (modern Chad).
