Misunderstandings of carcinization (and therefore what meaning we extract from evolution) are everywhere right now. Those ideas need to die because there is no ultimate form. Not crabs, not anyone. With eugenics on the rise (understatement), it bears repeating!

#invertefest some finds from my last tidepools visit

Nose, taste buds, ears, immune system, map: the antennule. It detects smell, taste, and vibrations (like sound), recognizes pathogens and produces meds. Like the eyes, each antennule moves independently. #VancouverIsland #HermitCrabs #IntertidalInvertebrates #Invertebrates #MarineLife #DailyHermit

Do not let the world look away. Keep fighting, keep telling our stories—until Palestine is free." - For the last time, Hossam Shabat, from northern Gaza. 23 and he knew to leave a death note.

This was Hossam's last post on Instagram. Demanding accountability for Israel's attacks.

Party tip: When throwing a deep sea tea party, it's generally recommended that you invite the colossal squid.

It’s a sea slug kinda day. Please enjoy these Painted Elysia from our recent trip to Cozumel! 🤿🦑🐌 #underwaterphotography #macro #tg5 #scuba

New writing! For @sciam.bsky.social, I talk about misleading memes. If you understand evolution enough to know this already, great! But memes/youtubes/etc reach folks with no biology background. Science has been twisted to justify bad things, such as eugenics, before. NOT IN CRABS' NAME. 🦀🧪🦑⚒️

Happy Valentine’s Day- Show your friends that your feelings will NEVER go extinct with some cambrian critters.

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

Thought this was a nice scene: an orbweaver (probably Araniella displicata) has spun its web across the gap in a scrub oak leaf produced by a caterpillar's feeding, and there are some Coptodisca leaf mines at upper right (one aborted, one with feeding larva, and one with pupal case already cut out).

Hi there, it's #PortfolioDay (again, do not ask me why...) ! I'm Stieven and I mostly make these “slices of prehistoric life”

For a wildcard #InsertAnInvert2024 week we’re going back in time all the way to the Cambrian for the Opabinia! 🐡🧪 The fossils of this soft-bodied 7 cm long animal are found in the Middle Cambrian Burgess Shale Lagerstätte (505 million years ago) of British Columbia. Opabinia likely caught 🧵1/n

I will always stand by every word

i was gone for a week and a bit (had my aunt visit her) so now shes super clingy. unfortunately this means her claws also haven't been clipped in over a week so she's also like velcro on me #misu

#Phreatoicopsis raffae is a strange #isopod in the suborder Phreatoicidea. These isopods mostly live in groundwater, but Phreatoicopsis is semi terrestrial. They are endemic to #Gariwerd, or the #Grampians, and unfortunately the place I saw it just burnt in a bushfire :( #InverteFest #ArthropodArt

Want to learn to draw bugs for #InverteFest? I curate "Bug Pics for Art Refs"—a collection of photos that show invertebrates from angles that are hard to find elsewhere online, hand-picked to specifically help people who draw bugs *like me*. www.inaturalist.org/observations... My latest addition:

“i’m learning blender” that’s great! i’ve been practicing microwave for a while and i think i’ve gotten pretty good at it. might tackle toaster next
