Oh, I love this. A new species of sea anemone was discovered recently that parks itself on top of a hermit crab shell like a hat. It seems to feed partly off the crab's faeces, but it also excretes a hard shell that extends the crab's home. In return, it's carried around the seafloor like a king.

There's a forked one antler buck in the yard sporting what looks like someone else's antler tip on his right rear knee causing him to effectively be a tripod. He was still harassing a doe, poor gal.

I'm furloughed but if anyone wanted to sample on my behalf...
We have a bunch of sampler options for this exact purpose! Mystery samplers are always a hit; folks love the "choose your caffeine level" aspect of them.
My personal faves are the witchy set of Dreamer's Potions & the deliciously diverse LatAm Heritage Sampler!

ICE is using faulty and biased face surveillance technology to go after people they suspect of being undocumented.
This is a direct threat to the fundamental rights of every individual and has no place in our cities.

we're closing in on the longest shut down at this rate (35 days)
And they called it the the Great Epstein Recess of 2025
It's official - the House will be out AGAIN next week, for a sixth consecutive week. That means the House will have worked 20 days over 17 weeks. The last House vote was on Sept. 19.
