i love that there is something deeply wrong with both house and wilson in different but complementary ways. you wonder why wilson spends all his time with a guy who spiked his coffee with amphetamines until it's revealed he spiked house's coffee with anti-depressants first. they deserve each other.

it is past time we jettisoned the useless false dichotomy of introversion vs. extroversion and just accepted that everybody has a minimum amount of social interaction, failing which, they get really weird. and everybody has a maximum amount of social interaction, exceeding which, they get really weird. these levels are different for everyone, for a variety of reasons, and have no moral dimension. and that is all.

Fingerspood. 🖤

Young Mr Chalcoscirtus (see the slightly chonky palps) appeared in the swampy grass I was rooting around in this afternoon. So happy to see this species again, as they seem to be active fall through early spring.

A bee I’ve never seen before! I believe this is one of the “oil digger” bees, Centris rhodophus. They can harvest floral oils in addition to pollen.

(Only the females have those red eyes and legs apparently; the males have green eyes and gold-yellow legs.)

Mountain Access Brigade of the National Abortion Fund

Tennessee has a total abortion ban. Mountain Access Brigade assists Tennesseeans seeking abortions and provides the funds they need to get those abortions thanks to donations from people like you.

MAB is part of the National Abortion Fund (HQ in Beaverton, Oregon) and therefore can be trusted.

Every year, abortion funds in the NNAF member network receive tens of thousands of calls from abortion seekers. NNAF member abortion funds report that they have the resources to provide support to only one-third of their callers. They need more financial resources. Abortion funds have the knowledge and systems to support abortion seekers, but their work is limited by the amount of money they have.

Support people in financial straits who are in need of abortions!

Consider giving to Mountain Access Brigade of TN or the NNAF! 💛 Consider reposting the link to this fund!
