McDonald's had gone all-in on salads in the mid 80's, with chicken and deli meat options, so it's no surprise they would have taken a swing at a shrimp option

Hi & tysm friends~
Ladies lunch club loved the bugs yesterday.
I had ≈30 min but used your suggestions:
Biodiversity +undescribed species
gifs of bumblebees playing with balls like puppies & spiders dancing for their life
bugs as pest control & leave the leaves
BIG WIN on the bottom pie chart ☺️💛

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!

these ghouls can openly dismantle every public good that it took sometimes centuries to construct, and this is just party dogma among their own side, but there is no equivalent opposition big idea like "we must appropriate vital infrastructure away from oligarchs and back into the commonweal"
The Trump Administration appears to be continuing to move forward in its plans to dismantle the Nat'l Center for Atmospheric Research, announcing yesterday plans to shed the NCAR supercomputing facility to a third party. More: tinyurl.com/26924vy4

Me: “this piece of critical infrastructure has failed its last three safety reviews. We have to start making real progress on what’s probably a billion dollar project.”
Derek Thompson, Ezra Klein, and Richard Hanania: “Best we can do is push for deregulation. Again!”

one of the most frustrating things about there being “no jobs” is that we all walk around and see the work that needs to be done. our cities are crumbling, our people need help, our world is dying. there’s so much work to be done, if only it were good for the balance sheet

There can of course be different levels and understandings, but I'm reminded of being in a lot of pain as a kid when resuscitated after nearly drowning — everything hurt, but it was beautiful because anything at all was happening.

food systems are the leading cause of deforestation and biodiversity loss on land, freshwater use, and overfishing, and the number two cause of climate change after energy use
what’s the most obvious on-the-ground truth that your profession knows, but people don’t live like it’s true?
what other jfc-inducing truths are sitting in plain sight for people who know how to see what’s happening?

Now is a good time to remind folks that the 20 issue run of Hellraiser stories that were published by Epic starting in 1989 running to 1993 were actually quite fucking good and worth the time/effort to track down.

As someone who is also quite fond of recreational stimulants insufflated from and through a variety of dubious surfaces, take it from me. Get a fuckin’ vax. Get all the vaxes.
