Bulbasaur are small arachnid-like pokemon that can typically be found in large wooded areas. Though they aren't actually a bug type that doesn't mean that other pokemon don't often mistaken them as one. They use this to their advantage as the mistaken typing leads to what would be predators- bug types leaving them be and also some threatening grass types not bothering them due to the type weakness.

Despite what their appearance may suggest Bulbasaur can't actually produce any kind of webbing or silk. So they typically have to 'web' around with their vines instead, with their (small) nests being made purely out of vines and leaves up in tree branches.

They typically live in small colonies when they're young and spread out as they grow older (I.E 'evolve' into an Ivysaur and so on). Usually these colonies are made up of related, sibling Bulbasaur that came of the same clutch or general grandparent.

"... Frayed are not born in a way we would define birth...at their core they are a monster. Though some circumstances leading to a Frayed's creation may be sympathetic or tragic they will gradually disrupt the ecological balance in the area and push many creatures- not just sentient beings- out....

The Fabric of the Universe is fickle and all of the worlds creatures are subjected to the whims of an ever shifting cloth."

The Layered Woodlouse Mounds [Wildlife habitat sculpture] Stoneware with glaze June 2023

Amy Haigh

This new commission by Amy Haigh is a sculptural habitat (in stoneware with glaze), to be situated outdoors in a publicly accessible greenspace. The Layered Woodlouse Mounds (2023) act as a monument to its namesake species. Although the inhabitants are not seen by human observers for the most part, they live and search for food within the Mounds’ hidden sanctuaries, revealing themselves in fleeting moments as they leave and enter. … for more of my work see www.amyhaigh.com

The Mounds were shown at the Royal Horticultural Society Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival in 2023.

She’s big, like, really big. As big as a 10yo child. Lore below!

A quick sketch of her laying floaty oothecas. They float on the ocean’s surface to access air, and to protect themselves from predators, they are laid in separate clutches of two to three eggs in each egg case. The hairy texture on their surface traps air to float better, mimics algae, and gives the egg case a nasty taste and texture to deter anything that might want to eat the eggs. They are somewhat closely related to my beloved sandwalkers.

Many animals exit the water to lay eggs, or have evolved oviviviparity or viviparity, but in this case, laying eggs like this means that the mother doesn’t nave to spend extra time traveling to a designated area to reproduce. But since oothecas need some time to dry up, she still has to spend a minute or so holding one with her anus out of the water. Still though, this is a quite beneficial tactic for a very r-selected animal that relies on frequent and plentyful reproduction.

Day 22: Camp.

The solovki special camp was the largest soviet concentration camp. Nowadays, russians have created a lot of concentration camps, where they send Ukrainian POWs and civilians to torture or kill them.

"Hence, the historical movement which changes the producers into wage-workers, appears, on the one hand, as their emancipation from serfdom and from the fetters of the guilds, and this side alone exists for our bourgeois historians. But, on the other hand, these new freedmen became sellers of themselves only after they had been robbed of all their own means of production, and of all the guarantees of existence afforded by the old feudal arrangements. And the history of this, their expropriation, is written in the annals of mankind in letters of blood and fire." - Marx

"Estrangement appears not only in the fact that the means of my life belong to another and that my desire is the inaccessible possession of another, but also in the fact that all things are other than themselves, that my activity is other than itself, and that finally – and this goes for the capitalists too – an inhuman power rules over everything." - Marx

"The only thing that interests us is the secret discovered in the new world by the political economy of the old world, and proclaimed on the housetops: that the capitalist mode of production and accumulation, and therefore capitalist private property, have for their fundamental condition the annihilation of self-earned private property; in other words, the expropriation of the labourer." - Marx

Promo art for our upcoming film "For Land on the capitalist mass extinction".
