No id needed for the second and third, although i am mildly curious about the first since it's a species i see around a lot (but it's not needed if you don't have the time or anything, dw bout it)

Found this slug and a horsehair worm (i think) chillin near a puddle outside, and the mantis is from a while ago, I'd brought it inside for a day because it was very cold and wet outside and it hadn't been doing well but was later released on a nicer day acting perfectly fine!

for potential id reasons, location is in northern parts of texas! (not the panhandle tho)

I also saw a camel cricket a while back, but didn't take a picture because it was dark and my first concern was saving it from drowning in the waterbowl outside, after that by the time i came back with my phone it had fled lmao

I am imagining the camel cricket you rescued and it's very good. Also love these other dudes! Especially the horsehair worm since I don't get those submitted much.

Not positive on the slug but I'd lean towards a greenhouse slug, Milax gagates.

I'm glad the mantis was doing well once it was outside on a nicer day but I will say adult mantises don't live a particularly long time, and it may just have been slowing down as a natural result of the end of its lifespan and that's okay :)

thank you for tagging me @burritoscully, @thatfragilecapricorn30, @randomfoggytiger, @frogsmulder and @aluvian!

Are you named after anyone? My siblings thought it would be a great idea to name me after Pippi Longstocking’s little friend and my parents (unfortunately) agreed.

When was the last time you cried? I honestly don’t remember. Maybe in February? I wouldn’t know why though.

Do you have kids? Nope. I’m the cool aunt. At least I think I’m cool. Not sure my nephews agree.

Do you use sarcasm a lot? I don’t always recognize sarcasm, so I can’t say whether I use it or not.

What sports do you play/have played? Started out doing competitive swimming as a kid. Then I played field hockey for a couple of years before I started playing soccer for several years. Now I just run and bike.

What's the first thing you notice about other people? I want to say their shoes. I’m actually not sure. I tend to be super nervous when I meet new people.

What's your eye color? Blue-green-grey

Scary movies or happy endings? Happy endings. I tend not to care for scary movies (sorry).

Any special talents? I’m pretty good at choosing watermelons.

Where were you born? Berlin, Germany

What are your hobbies? Reading, writing, running, and biking

Do you have any pets? Yes! Billy, the dog. He’s a Mini Aussie.

How tall are you? 171 cm ( I used to be 172 cm, welp), so I guess that’s 5‘6

Bukunya Jamie S. Davidson ini baru sampai kemarin di rumah. Beliau cerita pengalamannya ke Kalimantan Barat sekitar tahun 1999 hingga 2000an. Dari Davidson saya baru tahu kisah-kisah kelam tahun 98 dan 2001 di tanah kelahiran. 

Dulu saya masih siswa SD kelas 3 yang takut karena adanya kerusuhan di tengah kota. Saya masih ingat Paman dan Bibi sekeluarga terhambat pulang dari arah Sambas terdampak aksi massa. Lalu, sekolah diliburkan beberapa kali. Kami juga diungsikan ke rumah kakek karena dianggap relatif aman lokasinya. Saya masih ingat waktu itu sampai demam karena takut dan memikirkan Papa yang belum bisa pulang dari kantor. Rentetan peristiwanya berdekatan selang sekian bulan dari peristiwa Reformasi 98 soalnya. Jadi tahun itu berat sekali rasanya.

Pas tahun 2000 atau 2001 saat kerusuhan baru lagi terjadi di Pontianak, malam hari saya dengar suara atap terlempar batu-batu. Kami dibangunkan orang tua. Ternyata rumah sebelah kami sudah dikepung warga yang gagal mau menyerbu kamp pengungsian Madura di stadion bola UNTAN. Persis lokasinya di seberang areal rumah kami. Berhubung tetangga kami juga Madura - boleh dibilang sosok Madura sukses karena bisa punya rumah megah dua tingkat di tengah kota - massa hendak melampiaskan amarahnya ke tempat beliau. 

"Bakar jak, bakar!" 

Saya dengar teriakan itu dari dalam rumah. Mama bilang iya mereka bakar, nanti rumah kita duluan hangus karena rumah kita bahannya kayu, tetangga itu rumahnya beton. Tidak lama kemudian Paklek Gagat datang menjemput kami sekeluarga untuk kembali diungsikan. Yang saya ingat dari cerita orang tua, massa berhasil ditenangkan dan tetangga sekeluarga berhasil dievakuasi ke rumah dinas gubernur lewat jalur belakang (rumah mereka ada dua akses).

Buku ini menghadirkan kembali sensasi dan memori itu. Boleh dibilang trauma masa kecil merasakan (tidak menyaksikan) periode kelam itu. 

Davidson juga titip salam ke orang, lokasi, organisasi, dan kelompok yang begitu baik membantunya selama di Kalbar saat penelitian. Salah satunya almarhum Prof. Tangdililing. Saya sempat tandem sama beliau pas pertama masuk, makasih juga Prof sudah membimbing saya. Semoga saya bisa lanjutkan amanah Prof. Semoga tenang di sana.

Foto terakhir kembali menambah semangat. Saya di trek yang benar buat ngobrol lagi sama Yangkong. Davidson sempar merujuk publikasi beliau soal migrasi swakarsa Madura di Kalbar. Terima kasih sudah membuka jalan buat kami ye, Yangkong. Maaf kite ndak pernah bisa benar-benar ngobrol soal riset di Kalimantan Barat. Setidaknya kita ngobrol lewat sitasi-sitasi orang yang membaca karya Yangkong ye? Nanti Danu ikut juga publikasi soal riset-riset di Kalbar biar kite selalu nyambung diskusinye. Beliau mengamalkan puisi Chairil Anwar berjudul "Sekali Berarti Setelah Itu Mati". Buku beliau terbit tahun 2001, padahal beliau sudah duluan berpulang tahun 1998. Dan beliau masih seperti pepatah "gajah mati meninggalkan gading, harimau mati meninggalkan belang, manusia mati meninggalkan nama." Terima kasih, Yangkong.
